Listening In On a Private Conversation “Mother, who were the rest of your classmates in 1945.” “Liz Sullivan graduated from C. C. B. I. and is still secretary to Mr. Ford, President of the Ford Motor Corporation. After taking six lessons from Madam Mazonga, Sylvia Tenney is now a vocalist and dancer with Harry James’ orchestra. Shirley Alexander has a beauty shop in Texas and drives a Pontiac to work every morning. “Francis Woodard who began his art career on the school paper, is now designing ships for the U. S. Navy. Maybelle Morrow joined the WACS and is at the present touring the country with the woman she admired most, Mrs. Roosevelt. Jean Sullivan became a successful photographer and has a studio in Potsdam. You can go in any time and get your picture taken. “After completing C. C. B. I., Eloise Sandford be- came secretary to her father who owns that large department store in Colton. Betty FyJfe, who during the war entertained the soldiers overseas is still trying to make a choice between three of Uncle Sam’s soldiers. Kathleen Olmstead is still a swim- ming instructor at one of U. S. foremost summer resorts at Lake Placid. “Myrtle Huckle forgot that gasoline wasn’t rat- ioned after the war and is still using her horse and buggy to deliver the mail. Margie Seymour is now engaged as Secretary to Admiral Perkins in the Navy Department in Washington. Everyone can remember when Bob Thomas used to say he was a misogymist. Well, I guess we can believe him for he still is after ten difficult years.” “Then you were the only one who got married ? ” “Yes, Mary, I married General Weegar of the U. S. Army.” Last Will and Testament We, the Senior Class of 1945, Colton High School, announced sane in mind as well as in body, bequeath the following possessions to the following, fortunate people.
