The i H liUUW May 25. 1957 Charlotte, Michigan ih'arvHi Wife. Do you remember Charlotte, the town where we graduated? Well, it has changed considerably if I do say so myself. As I entered the city coming from I ansing my eyes were opened wide when I saw an enormous airport with the names Ondra and Archart painted on the runway. I Journeyed farther to find a monument dedicated to Iauira Cudney in memory of her gallant attempt to make a pin point landing on the court house clock. Making my way down the street. I had to apply my brakes quickly to avoid hitting the former Rcta Payne and her fumily of sextuplets. I was told that her ferocious husband. Roger Ash. had deliberately scowled at the children. Stopping at Mohre’s Supreme Superior Super Service. I was involved in conversation with at- tendants Martin. Paton. and Willard, who directed me to Schneckenbcrger's fourteen story hotel for lodging. To my surprise, the manager was none j other than Dick Trumley. Eleanor Sloan, bell girl, j carried my bags to the elevator where Theodore Ross took me to the thirteenth floor. That night the management invited me to the! dining room where a floor show was to be held. While eating dinner with Bishop Shamp and bur- lesque queen Morey, we were entertained by Wayne Webb's Mud Wallowers , a very popular orchestra. Also on the program were the nation- ally famous ballet dancers McDonald and Hack who were accompanied by Joseph Pray on the bagpipes. Mayor Ackley concluded the evening's program with a short talk entitled. My Most Daring Adventures. The next morning as I gazed from my window overlooking Thornton's Junk Yard. I noticed a crowd gathering on the court house luwn. After further Investigation, the town dogcatcher. Jack Hij»s. was found to lx matching wits with a canine, while his as- sistant. Betty Sumerix. yelled for help. Final- ly the city cop. Omie Hart, with his crew of ten men came to the rescue. My eyes then: wandered to the jail where inmates Barb and Mary Lou Keeler; Bradley. Joan Kerstetter. were held for vagrancy. Later in the afternoon the city garbage truck met its fate when a street sweeper driven by Sally Sterrett collided with it. During this occur- ance I met Dick Beechler. who Is city librarian and discussed the novel. A Weed Clrows in Ben- nett . As the conversation continued Dick told me various incidents which had happened in town. Dick Cooper and Pete Csatlos. managers of the “Ladies' Ready Wear store had i , been tarred and feathered by the ' Wild Women's Society whose •“ m leaders were Mary Lou Caughey. Qa 1 Marian Ball. Mary Ellen Freed and fp T Rhoda Ottney. News commentator 4 n .•■rn Baum aaid the meat were last seen, on the road to Mor- occo. Going on my way some- what amused. I bumped into the street cleaners. Brewster Grier. Francis Kane and Betty LeVanway. who are lietter known as the Swamp Angels of this era. Stepping up in society I visited Harold Cheney, editor of the Charlotte Dally Blow who was having a paper doll party. Among the many outstanding celebrities, were opera singers Donna Clifford and Keith Gldner. who sang “Emphasize the Affirmative composed by Harold Buchholz. The high light of the party was when Justice V. Archer united Mary Lou Bolder and Junior Tuckcy in holy matrimony. On the way to the hotel that night I stopped at Smuts' Park to hear the music played by the Salvation Army. To my amazement the leader was Roderick Van Dyke Yates with Grace Shaull at the drums and Sheridan Walter- worth shaking the tambourine. Arriving at the hotel exhausted and thirsty. I made my way to the bar and sipped down one of bartender Dan Fuller's cocktail specials. Later. I was engaged in a game of poker which netted card sharks Gertrude Heinz» and Frances Smith my small fortune. Disgusted and dismayed I re- tired for the night Just as I was about to enter my rooms, the maid. Burleigh Wellman, was leav- ing after opening the bed and laying out my slip- pers.

Darling, here I was. broke und u circus In town. So I ventured to the Blodget-Farrler pawn shop. That afternoon I was forced to walk to the circus for my dependable 1955 Ricker had suddenly collapsed. Apparently out of nowhere appeared Bert Jane, famous black head picker, who obliging- ly gave me a lift. While at the circus. I came into contact with many more of the class of '45. Junior King, inter nationally known lion tamer, was attempting to stick his head into the mouth of a poor little mis- guided pussy cat. Next I visited the Rulison-Roys- lon flea menagerie which is a very itchy proposi- tion. Glancing at a poster, the name Laurel Starr caught my eye. It read. World’s Largest Fat Woman—Three Hundred Sixty-live Pounds. With my mind somewhat befuddled. I headed for the main tent. There, ring mistress Norma Marshall introduced the first act. The women on the flying trapeeze which turned out to be a song sung by French. Haigh and Frey. After this ordeal 1 was aroused by main usher. Pierce, who had stuck a Iwttle of LeVan's Smelling Salts under my nose. The fol- lowing act was a little more thrilling and blood- thirsty. as professional boxer Rosemary Lynd out- pointed amateur Beverly Lipsey in a closely matched l»out. It was so blood-curdling that referees E. Wright and D. Wright fainted. Dr. Richard L. Peck, however, soon revived them. A tragedy came with the next act. Bonnie Ging- rich famed tight wire walker, fell from a height of one hundred feet and lighted in the brawny arms of Robert Woodman who tried to break her fall. Well, he did. Funeral services will be held for him tomorrow. At this point I left, to avoid fur- ther perturbation. Reaching the main gate. I was knocked down brutally by Norma Tanner, a snake charmer with a vicious, bone crushing, garter snake wrapped around her neck. Having lost all control of my mind after seeing such sights. I began frothing at the mouth. Immediately they called Virginia Shaw, the veterinarian, and Geraldine Harmon, and Esther Robins, her assistants. Seemingly by the grace of God. Vernon Gresso. an old friend, rescued me from the patient-hungry veterinarians. After chatting with him I discovered he is an attendant at the Kalamazoo Nut House. For my health he advised me to go to Gay's Turkish Baths For Women, sure cure for your ailments. He said. “He cured my wives, the former Phylli.- Wletzke and Phyllis White: he should be aide to cure you.” With this I left and went straight j to my hotel for a good night's sleep. The screeching of sirens interrupted my dreams; 14 President’s Messape As four years of hard work and study. Inter- mingled. of course, with many good times, draw to a close, we of the class of ’45 can look back and recall many worthwhile activities and projects completed. Outstanding among these activities were the junior play, the annual magazine sales, which grossed over $1100. topping all previous records, the Junior-senior banquet and prom, the annual senior class Christmas card sales, another money, making enterprise which also set a record-break- ing mark, and various other lesser activities. As freshmen and sophomores, members of the (lass of '45 were active in school affairs, aiding In scrap drives, and other war effort activities, and taking part in assemblies and student organiza- tions. In uddition to these muny extra-curricular activ- ities. the class has attained an excellent record as a whole, scholastically with each of the first ten of the class maintaining better than a B aver- age. All of these things could not have been accom- plished. had it not been for the co-operation and willingness to work of all the members of the class and for the capable and understanding guid- ance of our advisers. As president of the class of '45. I should like to take these few lines to thank all those people who so willingly helped on all class projects during this past year for their fine co-operation. In ad- dition I wish to express my appreciation to our advisers. Mrs. Marena Ktplinger. Miss Winifred Wells, and Mr. Earl Huston, who have helped us so much. So much for the past. With the end of this four year period, we are closing one book and opening another, one whose pages hold much for us that is exciting, interesting, painful, heart- breaking—the book of Life. We are entering a world which will be entirely new to us. and it is for this world that the last four years have attempted to prepare us. We are entering the world in very uncertain times. Many or us will be entering the armed forces soon. Many of our group have already left to fight. To those who have left and those who will be leaving, we wish. Good Luck. Others of us will be going on to school, or taking our places In Industry. From here, it's up to us. and to each and every member of the class I say again. Thank you for your fine co-operation throughout the year, and the best of luck to you all. JACK HESS. '45. President. -a « ■ ■ ♦ « « « Bev. Paton— I'm mad at Ned. Lois Willard— But why?” Bev.

Mrs. Riding Hood (Reta Payne in disguise) widow of the famous ex-black- marketeer Francis Kune Riding Hood, who died in Sing-Sing, cared for her only child by baking pies for all the neighbors. One day after Mrs. Riding Hood had finished her ttaking she called to Little Red and asked her to take a pie to Grandma Rulison Riding Hood. Placing it in her basket the little girl hopped on her motor-bike and was off through the woods. Knroute she came upon the three little pigs. Piggy Fuller. IMggy Hess, and Piggy Csatlos. counter- feiting gas ration coupons. Deciding to accompany her. they quickly put on their Jet-propelled roller-skates. At the fork they did not notice the sign No Left-Hand Turn ami were stopped by traffic cop Goldilocks' Smuts who had taken over the job since the man power shortage Unknown to the travellers. Big Bad Wolf Hart was skimming swiftly along ul ove them in his helicopter scheming in his cunning way to deliver them to Simple Simon Heechler. who wanted to learn Mrs. Riding Hood’s secret formula for bak- ing pies. At Grandma's spacious country estate the four of them retired to the backyard to take a dip in her seventy-live foot pool still unaware of the dan- ger lurking al ove them. All of a sudden the Three Blind Mice. Martin. McDonald, and Mohre. who were sunbathing on the lawn sighted the Big Bail Wolf bearing down upon the unsuspecting victims Md called to them to flee. Reaching the house be- fore him. the Three Piggies slammed the door in his face. After phoning Tom Thumb Ackley to come and escort Red home, the group settled down to a quiet game of poker. The butler. Crooked Man Grrsso. won the game In his crooked way ami all started quarreling. Suddenly there came a knock at the door. On opening it. who should appear but Old Mother Hubbard Sterrett bringing Grandma «••me hoarded canned goods. When Tom Ackley arrived. Little Red Riding Hood and the Three Piggies said goodbye anti started home again. But while buzzing along. Piggy Hess suddenly disappeared into u deep hole in the middle of the road and when they looked down to see what had become of him who should they see but Jack and Jill (Donna Clifford and Bert Jane) moon- shining Pepsi-Cola in an underground cave. After tilling up they continued home without further mishap. Dear Uncle Andy. Seeing as how you have helped so many others I am hoping that you will be able to help me at this time also. Now don't say NO yet—it isn't a loan. Although 1 can always use a little extra.) What I want is ADVICE—you know, the kind Dorothy Dix hands out to the girls. The situation is this. My dear, sweet wife (Oh. how I love the woman—she has such a beautiful throat, perfect for strangling) Just doesn't under- stand me and all my household worries. All this planning of meals and such is lowering my morale to the freezing point and she never suggests tak- ing me out to dinner anymore—I think she’s ashamed of my dishpan hands. It's almost im- possible to keep them white and soft when I have all these dishes to do for the family (all thirteen of us) and the washings and scrubbings. That washing is another cause for argument. Just the other day she complained that all the girls were noticing her tattle-tale grey shirts. (1 really don't understand it either as I use Oxydol the same as all the other boys do.) And here I am In the midst of spring house- cleaning—slaving, slaving all day long (not even a servant anymore either you know. Our last one. Horace, got a better job at Wilcox-Gay and left us flat.) And then last night wifey came in and complained that I was always too tired to go any- place with her «.nymore. She goes out to the club every night now and I Just know there is an- other man in her life—he must be blond because I found a blond hair on her suit. My question. Uncle Andy, is this. Shall I leave and go home to Father for awhile and play hard to get or shall I remain here and try to make my- self more attractive in her eyes. This is yours for the answering. Hopefully yours. Hen-Pecked. Dear Hen-Pecked. I grieve for you! Your situation, however, is that of many men at the present time. By letting the No Vote Bill for Men pass, our beloved President Bessie Belch (I hope she kicks the bucket before long) has taken away many of the rights of our class. We men must show the women who's 1k ss. Tell her that she can run the office as she wishes, but that you'll run the house the way you want to. If this doesn't work, when you get out of the hos- pital. by all means go home to Father. The latter, of course, applies only if he hasn't come to you first. Remember Absence makes the heart grow fonder. At least so they tell me—my wife and I have been separated for fifteen years! Thank you for writing. Yours truly. Uncle Andy. 1st Cannibal: The chief has hay fever. 2nd Cannibal: “Serves him right. I told him not to eat that grass widow.” Miss Wells: Do you read Poe?” Geo. Stucky: Naw. I read pretty good.
