Leslie Wedum works one day a week in his father's store, two days a week hunting rabbits to support Penny, and the other four days he takes his little Leslies to the woods hunting. You may think the former Iris Hughes developed an interest for flowers in college, but when she talks about her little Irises she is not referring to flowers. Jack Peterson has a dude ranch and has become very popular with his feminine guests. Maxine Yeager has taken over Betty Crocker's place in the world. Bruce Anderson after ten whole years is still swabbing decks in the Navy. Leif Larsen is a civil engineer. He has a 2000 acre farm for his hobby. Ed Lilleaas has finally made the grade. He is working behind the checking counter in the Safeway store at Choteau. If you would like to take in a movie tonight. Rose Kibbee is starring in The Return of Rattlesnake Rose at the Golden Theater. Our dairy products were supplied by Faye Baker for this dinner, free of charge. She owns a big dairy in Minnesota. Lee Foxworthy has his own little laboratory and his own chemistry sets. He's had extremely good luck so far- -he has only blown the roof off his house once. The former Beverly Monkman and Harriet Talifson went to college to get B. A. degrees in education and guess what they got, they got M. R. S. degrees and now have several little professors. Charles Crane is a farmer. He sits at home with his dog, smolking his pipe and watching TV every night. I believe some of us should thank Joe Lantz for the transportation out here. He's a bus driver for Inter-mountain. Mary Brilakis returned to Helena after graduating to work in the state capital. Pauline Richem is now president of the Highlander Beer Company, chief rival of Hamm’s Brewery. Tommy Richards has outgrown his shyness and is now publicity manager for the latest Marilyn Monroe. Ronnie Ecklund has his own little bar out at Collins, called Ecklund's Dive. Gene Danz is keeping himself busy by making millionaires out of other people. He works for an oil crew. Gene Henneford just got back from Munich, Germany, after completing his collection of beer steins. He has now opened up a bar and is making use of them. Shirley Zier has accomplished her goal--so far--to stay single!

@lci44 'ProfeAeccf We, the Class of 1956, chose New York City as our reunion place, we all needed a vacation and New York City seemed the most logical place. Before our reunion dinner we all had the pleasure of enjoying a concert under the direction of Marie Bance at Carnegie Hall. Charles Averill was listening quite concerned because he has a concert sched- uled at the San Francisco Opera House in two weeks. Gayle Armstrong Anderson came the farthest for this reunion. She came from Hawaii where Ray has made a lifetime job out of the navy. John Cowpoke Carlson is living on his father's ranch in a trailer house (it is six inches longer than his brothers). He milks a cow once in a while. Alex Truchot has taken over his father’s farm and he now owns all the big businesses in Agawam. Merle Hanson drove a new Oldsmobile to the reunion. He’s seeing how many he can sell right now. He has competition--Larry Taylor is selling Dodges. The former Linda Groot is living in Fairfield. Why? That is where Cordell and the kids live. Dede Wilson is busy raising a basketball team. She’s married to Coach Dunckel. If you scratch yourself while here, run to Maxine Snyder and Allene Hanson--they are our nurses. Dale Depner has made traveling around his career. He is still looking for a wife. Joan and Jim Lohse are trying to raise their ten children in a trailer house but are finding it very incon- venient. Clark and Carl Olson are competing against each other. Carl plays for the Minneapolis Lakers and Clark for the Boston Celtics. The girls from Montana all had their hair fixed at Kahler’s Beauty Salon before coming here. The former Shirley Lusty is the owner. Stella and Ora Knowlton are living in the mountains with their three sets of twins and two sets of triplets, as I was told by Stella. Wally Cherry is busy fixing TV sets in Fairfield. The only difficulty in his business is, after he takes a TV set apart, he can’t put it back together. Richard Page is mayor and sole owner of the seven bars and one grocery store in Bynum. Jim Boadle, our number one cowboy, just won the roping championship of the world at Madison Square Garden. Joan Baumgartner has been busy inventing new sundaes and sodas to please the customers in her drive inn. Diane Henderson found herself a cadet while attending C. W. C.
