x A ' ' Q The big week-end has finally arrived. The 1952 Senior Class of Chicora High is holding its class reunion at the home of the wealthy governor, Mr. L. M. Lowder and his wife. First to arrivc at the scene of the celebra- tion is Miss Dixie Cox, famous New York Designer for ladies' clothes. Arriving next, we see Mr. Mickey Penninger, big-time crooner, escorting Miss Cornelia Smith, secretary to the famous Army General, Bob Smith. As the band starts playing under the supervision of Mr. Charlie Ridgeway, I see gliding about the Hoor Miss Bobbie Hunt, secretary to the 'Vice-President of the United States, and Mr. Sidney Davis, news com- mentator. Also seen on the floor is Lucile Clardy, Holly- wood hair stylist, and Mr. Bobby Keys, filling station chain owner. After pushing my way through the crowded dance floor I finally arrive at the terrace where I spy in one corner Miss Marion Maddox, F. B. I. Agent, and Mr. Jimmy Box, drink-mixer for Greek Cannon's fabulous Night Club, and Diamond Horse Shoe . Seen in another corner is Mr. James Gonzales, famous Philadelphia lawyer, and his wife, the former Miss Barbara Johnson, who has held the title of Mrs. America for five years. As I wander back into the house, I run into that world-known bubble dancer, Miss Tissie Pat Gagnon, with her escort for the evening, Mr. Bob Owens, Sports Editor for The News and Courier. Seen towering above the crowd is Mr. Charles Tindal, coach for the University of South Caro- lina's football team, talking to Robert Able, coach of the Citadel Bulldogs. I mosey over to the punch bowl and find gabbing as usual, those three very pretty nurses, Misses Joann Pea- cock, Gwen Mills, and Shirley Blum. Upon hearing a noise, I turn around only to find Miss Dorothy Whatley and Miss Susan Withers stufiing their food down as if they had never eaten before. I hear a screech, and, going to the window, I see a sleek-looking red Lincoln. Who is that getting out--why, none other than the Editor of the New York Timer, Mr. Ronald Dunlap, escorting Miss Joyce Butterworth, a very popular radio comedian who plays the role of My Friend Irma . Looking closer, I see that the chaffeur of the car is Mr. Darrell Woods. Turning from the window, I hear talk of basketball and immediately know that it could be none other than Arlene Jones and Janet Herbert, basketball coaches for Winthrop, talking to that All-American athlete, Miss Betty Nelms. . The time has finally arrived for entertainment. The Master of Ceremonies for the evening is Mr. Jimmy Connor. First on the program is that Broadway dancing team, Miss Loretta Going and Mr. Jesse Massalon. Next we have that lovely soprano, Miss Marlene Fralix, SENICDR CLAS accompanied by Miss Runette H hes, world-famous pianist. Heard in t e an is Mr. Paul Payne and his tromboneg Mr. Bailey Keels at the drums, and Mr. Eugene Thomas and his saxophone. We have coming up next Mr. Hesse Taylor, Caruso of the South . All tired out from such an enjoyable evening we retire to our rooms for a night's rest. We are awakened early the next morning by that well-known hotrod driver, Mr. Walter Hunter. As we gather around the breakfast table, Reverend Hubert Williamson, asks the blessing. After breakfast I decide to stroll over to the pool where I find those famed photographers, Charles Shue and Darwin Gross, snapping pictures of the beau- tiful Paris Models, the Misses Betty Southworth, Faith Rusler, Zelma Daniels, and Miriam Dantzler. Taking a dip in the pool are Catherine Padgett, Gloria and Kitty McElhenney, Margaret Morgan, and Barbara Nash, popular swimmers of the year. I turn to go back into the house and my eyes behold the snazziest yellow convertible there is, coming down the road. Who is that driving? Why our own John Kindt, oil millionaire. Seen with him is the boxing champion, Kenneth Chil- dress. As I look farther down the road I see Mrs. Evelyn Groce Norman, her brood of six, and Mrs. Carol Legette Kaiser with her three little ones. I spot a police car parked in front of the Lowder Mansion which could, of course, be no one but the Chief of Police, John Brisben. I see also Highway Patrolman Jimmy Baker's car parked out front. What's this? Someone's going horseback riding. Naturally the leader will be the Nation's number one jockey, Herbert Hammond. On the way to my room to freshen up a bit, I am stopped by the Translator for the United Nations, Miss Dorothy McDaniel, and Mrs. Johnnie Bledsoe, the former Miss Shirley Slaughter, who is a school teacher in the famed halls of Chicora. After escaping them and all their gossip, I go freshen up a bit and on my return to the living room, I find Gene Casey, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and his secretary. Miss Mattie Rae Elmore, talking to the new owner of Roper Hospital, Miss Carolyn Roberts. Miss Peggy Aldret, rising Hollywood star, and Miss Barbara Bastain, owner of Charleston's exclusive Movie House, are chatting over old times with Tony Foster, famous Circus Animal Trainer, and Mr. Eugene Cercopley, member of Amer- ica's Male Chorus. Just as I am sitting down, a siren is heard and being curious we all dash to the window to see what happened, only to find Fire Chief, Peanut Cluka, burning up the road. After everything calms down, someone makes a motion that we ride over to the Isle of Palms to pick up our country cousin, Miss Barbara Roberts, who is now a famous surgeon. We all pile into the Lowder's Cadillac and are driving down the streets of Charleston, when, upon seeing Donald Dunlap, Bank S
