He has suggested many changes for the improvement of our schools and he is respected and well-liked by everyone. SUPERINTENDENT NORMAN C. KOONTZ B. A., M. A. Yale University, Columbia University flktfttngs to the Members of the Class of 1941 ’Tis education forms the common mind Just as the twig is bent the tree’s inclined—Pope. Twelve years ago your parents enrolled you in school so that you might get an education. Since that time you have passed from grade to grade, year by year, until today you are about to be graduated from the high school. Your journey through school might be likened to a journey through a strange country. When you started you did not know what was ahead. You were met at the school house door by a person, called a teacher, who acted as your guide and counselor. She conducted you through the first grade and passed you on to another teacher who helped you through the second grade and so on until today you have reached one of the most important mile posts in your school career, graduation from high school. You are to be congratulated on the progress you have made. But this is not the end of the journey. There are many mile posts still ahead. Some of you will continue your education in college and in the university. Others will continue their educa- tion through work experiences. The real process of education has just begun. Perhaps this is the reason we call graduation, commencement. It is the beginning of real education which ends only at the close of life. Those who hold fast to the high resolves which they have already formed and choose wisely their experiences in the years ahead may expect in time to become educated and cultured persons. What are the marks of an educated and cultured person? What is the ultimate goal of education? An educated and cultured person is one whose mind is trained to enjoy and appreciate the best things in life; whose hands are trained to do some useful labor, well; whose body is normally and symmetrically developed; whose heart is attuned to the noblest impulses in life and whose patriotism is based on the fundamental beliefs on which our government rests. I congratulate you on your success thus far and wish you the highest success in the future. Norman Koontz Superintendent of Schools School Board MR. CHARLES OTT, President MR. WILLIAM LORD. Vice President MR. RAY MARTIN MR. ROSS RHINEHART MR. KENNETH BUSS Mr. Henry, our principal, has been both a friend and a guide to me. In future years I shall remember him with deep affection and sincere gratitude for his part in preparing me for society. PRINCIPAL VIRGIL R. HENRY B. S., M. Ed.

DRUM MAJORETTES Verna Beers Kay Lovell Marion Dunn CHEER LEADERS Elsie Thayer Alberta Sweet Gloria Ross Jacque Rhodes 36 This year the band has been very outstanding. It made a nice appearance last fall, the Drum Majorettes adding-color at football games. New military uniforms which made the group even more attractive, were purchased by the Band Boosters this spring. Under the very excellent direction of Mr. Mackey, the band received a superior rating at Kent on March 22. All in all this has been a successful year musically. We are exceedingly proud of our school band and its director, Mr. Kaarlo Mackey. The Band BAND Top Row, Left to Right: Loren Burns. Myron Miller. Jean Lovell, Martha Perala, Warren Rogers.

Mr. Mackey organized the choir last fall with a membership of twenty-six. From time to time new members have been admitted until at present there are forty-four in the organization. Each member has sacrificed a part of his noon hour to practice, and an excellent spirit of cooperation has been developed in the group. On March 11 the public was pleasantly surprised to hear our choir present an outstandingly beautiful concert. In the future Conneaut High will undoubtedly be noted for its a cappella choir.

Those who received the rating were: Betty Heckman, soprano; John Henson, tenor; Curtis Crews, baritone; Aino Naykki, flute; Verna Beers, clarinet; Loren Burns, baritone horn; Charlotte Ojari, tenor saxophone; and Verna Beers, Joe Con-tino, Ruth Skinner, and Julian Lewis, clarinet quartet.

Verna Beers, clarinet solo, placed in Division Two which is equivalent to “excellent.” 39 Up in The Air The plot of our annual operetta, “Up In the Air,” centered around a bashful young man who, in order to win the girl of his heart, found it necessary to prove to her father that he was “a fellow of brawn and daring.” After many complications the youth made a parachute jump which completely satisfied the prospective father-in-law. The bashful young man was played by Curtis Crews, and his sweetheart was Betty Heckman. Robert Jones portrayed the father. Others in the cast included: Norma Howard, Marie Haskins, Mary Loomis, Martha Perala, Esther Langell, John Henson, Bill Cowden, Jacque Rhodes, and James Lord. The operetta was presented on May 6 and 7. Jefferson Tests On Saturday, March 29, sixteen seniors went to Jefferson to take the general scholarship tests. This examination is very difficult, and C. H. S. is happy to learn that four of our people placed in the upper ten and three received honorable mention. Those who placed in the upper ten are: Warren Rogers, first; Mary Means, third; Joe Contino, seventh; and Sara House, eighth.

The action took place at a party in a college sorority house. During the party two of the boys were mysteriously killed. The chief of police, played by Bud Grable, was called, but was able to accomplish nothing. Finally, the president of the sorority, played by Jane Green, solved the mystery. The play had a surprise ending which pleased everyone. SKMOIt I’l.AV Third Row: Shirley Loom is, Virgina Wakeman, Mary Alice Wilson, Robert Knight.

Carroll College Football Coach—Track Coach Johnny Brace joined us as football coach this year to replace “Dutch” Hoppes, who moved to Alliance. Johnny turned out a fine team, and we’re proud of our boys and our coach. They had excellent spirit and proudly displayed it both on the field and in the class room. Chester Penza has written a summary of the 1940 football season for us. It follows the pictures. FOOTBALL SQIJAI) First Row: Left to Right: Eugene Hlake, Hob Knox.

The 1940 Conneaut High School Trojans started off the season with a bang by whitewashing the game but light Erie Prep team. Frankie March took high scoring honors with three touchdowns, while Arcaro accounted for one more. Putnicki booted four well-placed placements. A safety was scored in the third quarter to make the score 30-0. East High’s huge grid machine was not so easily disposed of, however, annd the 16-win record of Conneaut was broken on September 20. March, on a wide sweeping reverse, pushed across the goal line and Putnicki again kicked the extra point for the only score. As the game ended, Conneaut was on the small end of a 21-7 score. The Harbor High School Mariners were the first league victims of the Trojans. The Mariners put up a stubborn battle and went down fighting 12-0 on September 27. The Sons of Troy were held scoreless during the entire first half. In the second half, however, Putnicki scored in the third quarter, and March in the fourth. Both attempts for the extra point failed. On Friday, October 4, the Trojans invaded the camp of the Painesville Red Raiders and came out on top by a score of 21-13. March was the big gun in Conneaut’s attack. He scored two goals and kicked an extra point. George Putnicki contributed seven points to the total. Although forced to take to the air, the Trojans defeated the Eagles of Geneva, October 11. Arcaro shot a 20-yard pass to Frank March who tore down the field for the only score. Putnicki then kicked his ninth extra point to make the final score 7-0. Next, the locals massacred the Edinboro Turtles October 18, 52-0 in a non-league fray. The Blue and White pushed over a total of eight tallies. Putnicki lead the scoring parade with a trio of goals. March followed with two, while Cowden, Grable and Arcaro each contributed one to the total. “Put” booted two extra points through the uprights, and March kicked one and plunged over for the other. The Black and Gold Panthers of Ashtabula defeated the Conneaut Trojans at Bula’s stadium on October 25, 28-0. Conneaut, for some unknown reason did not seem to click; but the Panthers on the other hand, played their best game of the season. Breaking a ten-year-defeat record the Willoughby Rangers tied the Conneaut Trojans 6-6 in the last home game, November 8, in the municipal stadium. The Trojans threatened several times, but were able to score only once, on March’s touchdown. With four injured regulars on the bench, the Trojans finished third in the Lake Shore League, when the Skippers of Fair-port handed them an 18-0 defeat at Hard- 46 ing field. This game was the final game for seven seniors on the team. Frank (Boston) March, Mike Arcaro, and Bud Grable were unable to play because of injuries suffered in previous games. The forty members of the 1940 football squad were entertained at a turkey dinner sponsored by the Elks Club Wednesday evening, December 11. Don Peden, Ohio University coach, was the main attraction among a group of after-dinner speakers introduced in a novel manner by Toastmaster James Davis. The printed programs were outlined as a football gridiron with each speech having an appropriate football expression for a title. In awarding letters to the football squad, Mr. Brace announced that George Ferl and Vincent Reo were elected co-captains for 1941. The following players received letters: Frank March, George Putnicki, George Adams, Mike Arcaro, Horace Beard, Nick Colby, George Ferl, Bud Grable, Howard Grable, Robert Gilbert, Harold Clark, William Cowden, Leonard Laitenen, Rex Gaugh, Carl Snyder, James Smith, George Pearson, Jack Ralph, Vincent Reo, and managers Mike Bartone and Eugene Blake. Conneaut’s third-place Trojans placed two Blue and White clad gridders on the 1940 All Lake Shore League mythical eleven. Frankie March, Trojan quartei-back, was placed on the All-League roster for the second year in a row, while George Adams was also named to the first squad. Big George Putnicki, fullback and March’s co-captain mate, was placed on the second team. George Ferl and Leonard Laitenen, tackles and Vincent (Herbie) Reo, received honorable mention.

The season, however, was not unsuccessful. The team displayed a brand of fighting courage worthy of champions. Early in the season it became evident to Coach Watson that the team could not hope for a championship. He, therefore, eliminated most of the seniors and concentrated on the juniors and sophomores. By this method he hoped to give them experience in order to have a strong team for next year.

Only two seniors, Joe Moroski and Chester Penza, will be lost by graduation. The juniors and sophomores should prove to be strong contenders next year. The team earned a reputation for fighting to the finish against great odds. The loyal fans and the team’s opponents as well, have a great respect for Coach Watson and his “cellar champions.” At the close of the season the squad was entertained at a banquet sponsored by the local Kiwanis Club. Here is a summary of the basketball games and scores: Union City 34 Corry 33 Fairport 34 Painesville 36 Willoughby 32 North East 29 Union City 37 Harbor 29 North East 35 Ashtabula 40 Geneva 18 Andover 22 Fairport 41 Painesville 42 Willoughby 31 Harbor 35 Ashtabula 61 Geneva 34 Meadville 38 662 49 At the Lake Shore Track Meet in Jefferson on May 14, Conneaut High School received the highest rating in several years. Our team placed fifth with 25 points. Geneva was first, Ashtabula, second; Painesville, third; Willoughby, fourth; Conneaut, fifth; Fair-port, sixth; and Harbor, seventh. Our boys won two of the fourteen first places. George Putnicki won the shot put, and the half mile relay team, composed of Betteys, Putnicki, Cowden, and Dickson received first place. Coach Brace felt that the team did very well, considering the number of participants disqualified in the preliminaries. Last year we published a record of the best marks set of Conneaut athletes since the invocation of that sport in the school Track in 1896. We will follow that custom this year. The only change to be made is in the half-mile relay which was run in 1:35.4 second this year at the Lake Shore meet in Jefferson by Betteys, Cowden, Putnicki, and Dickson.

It has promoted many student activities in the school, and it has undertaken several other noteworthy projects. The members of the Council collaborated with the Honor Society on the Physical Education Survey and on hall patrol duty. The Student Council, a democratic group, is founded on the idea of student government in our school.

During the past year it has sponsored several projects of interest, the most important of which was a survey of physical education in our schools and in schools af other cities. Since membership in the Honor Society is the highest recognition a high school pupil may receive, these people deserve special mention.

He has dug in the deep dark files to discover what our class has accomplished. Let’s see what this eminent professor of history has to relate. uialOKV OF THU CLASS OF 1941 ny Richard LasKo Tne task oi a mstorian in modem times is lar from easy, because tne wnole course oi world history is oiten completely changed wiimn a lew days, a ortunately, in writing the history of the Class of ’41, events do not occur with quite such lightning speed. We Seniors should realize what a privilege we have in graduating in a free country far from the bombs and other violence of war. America is one of the few countries where a high school class can look back on carefree, happy days, and can look forward to an opportunity to work to defend its freedom. When we, numbering a hundred and forty-four, entered Conneaut High School as timid Sophomores three years ago, we soon became adjusted to the grown-up ways of our elders. Since that time we have welcomed in as classmates from other schools Gladys Bailey, Doris Patton, Dorothy Martin, John Johnson, Wynona McMillan, Marian and Ruthella Hall, and Beatrice Howard, who entered our class during the Junior year. Betty Shaffer and Virginia Drury returned during the present year after having been away for their Junior year. For our Sophomore year we elected George Putnicki, president; Warren Pennell, vice president; Thomas Streeper, secretary; and Jacque Rhodes, treasurer of the class. Under their leadership, and with the help of the class advisers, Miss Whipple and Mr. Watson, we held a very successful party. In the Kent Scholarship Tests that year, members of our class who won honors were Joe Contino, third, and Rebecca Ruffin, ninth in .biology, Jane Green, ninth in English, and Sara House, eighth place in Latin. uuring our Junior year we were led by isoriiia nowaru, president; 13uu triable, vice iJiesiuent; Dunam oecKer, secretary; and cmesier l enza, treasurer, unuer tne leau-ersnip ot Miss jonnson and mr. Macminan, our sponsors, we enjoyed a Junior Party, and entertained tne seniors and faculty at the Junior-senior Prom wmcn was tne most outstanding social event of the year. The Odd Fellows Hall was decorated with streamers of blue and white so that it was a beautiful sight to behold. We well remember how pretty the girls looked in their new formats of a great variety of colors. The boys, too, were all dressed in their best, and the stag line caused many a feminine heart to flutter. The refreshments, dance music, and program were enjoyed by everyone. In the operetta, “Top O’ the World,” Frank March, Bud Grable, Loren Burns, Joe Contino, and Norma Howard had leading roles. This was one of the important musical events of the year. In scholarship our class was again well represented. Those receiving honors were, Berniece Raisian, third, and Rebecca Ruffin, tenth, in Stenography I; Chester Penza, second, and Dorothy Murphy, eleventh, in Bookkeeping I; Warren Rogers, second, and Joe Contino, sixth, in Chemistry; Mary Means, first and Sara House, tenth in English. Our Junior year was the year of the Trojan Wonder Team. The football team with the help of Frank March, George Putnicki, George Adams, Leonard Laitenen, Roibert Herpy, Mike Arcaro, and George Pearson, won the Lake Shore League championship. The most important year of our schooling was the Senior year with Chester Pen- 58 za, as our president; Joe Contino, vice-president; Richard Lasko, secretary; and Martha Perala, treasurer. Miss Ballou and Mr. Macmillan were appointed our class advisors. The first social event which occurred was the party of welcome given for the Sophomores. This was the first time in many years that the Sophomore class has been honored in such a manner. The Senior Chestnut Hunt at Camp Peet was an event that all class members will recall as the wettest day they have ever spent. The dinner was delicious, but everybody’s spirits were dampened by the heavy downpour that kept up throughout the day. This year has been a highly successful one for the Trojan football team which, with Johnny Brace as coach, and under the leadership of co-captains, Frank March and George Putnicki, won all but two League games. Other Senior members of the team were Mike Arcaro, Leonard Lai-tenen, George Pearson, Bud Grable, and George Adams. The season was concluded by the annual Football Banquet which was given to the team by members of the Elks Lodge. Although our basketball team didn’t win any games, the Seniors who played outstanding ball were Chester Penza and Joe Morowski. The following Seniors were very active on this year’s track team: George Putnicki, Frank March, Mike Arcaro, Leonard Laitenen, Jim Lord, George Collar, and Chester Penza. On December 4 and 5, the Senior Class presented its Annual Senior Play entitled “320 College Avenue.” Bud Grable’s portrayal of the chief of police was so outstanding that the audience will never forget him or the play eithei-. Jane Green had nearly solved the murder-mystery when the play ended as a sudden surprise for everybody. Didn’t Jim Lord play the part of a corpse very well? Nobody will ever forget how “dumb” Loren Burns can be when he wants to. Others taking part were Jacque Rhodes, Helen Churchill, George Putnicki, Marion Dunn, Doris Patton, Jack Quinn, Dorothy Martin, Frank March, Patricia Maloney, Katherine Lovell, Armond Gustaferro, Margaret Butler, Robert Grif- fey, Peggy Pinkerton, Eugene Blake, John Berus, Marie Haskins, Raymond Rawlings, Mary Loomis, and Richard Lasko. The Seniors who had leading parts in the recent operetta, “Up in the Air,” were Norma Howard, Martha Perala, Jim Lord, Mary Loomis, Marie Haskins, and Jacque Iihodes. It is with very deep regret that sixteen Seniors say “goodby” to the Conneaut School Band. Through great effort on their part they have helped to get the beautiful blue uniforms that they now are so proud to wear. At Kent, the Band won a “Superior” rating which is the highest honor a band can receive. Much of the credit for this success is due to Mr. Mackey, the dii'ector. Senior members of the Band also won acclaim at the Solo Contest at Alliance, Ohio. Verna Beers, clarinet, received “Superior” rating; Loren Burns, baritone, “Superior” rating; Kenneth Keidel, cornet, “Excellent” rating; and Norma Howard, soprano, “Excellent” rating. Verna Beers and Joe Contino were members of a clarinet quartet which won a “Superor” rating. Verna Beers and Loren Burns were eligible for the State Contests at Columbus. Other Seniors in the Band were Katherine Lovell, Martha Perala, Warren Rogers, Aino Vasti, Miriam Wintturi, Richard Lasko, Jacque Rhodes, Grace Moore, Martha Jane Merrill, Thomas Streeper, and Myron Miller. The new school paper, “The Trojan Trumpet,” which has served both the Senior and Junior High Schools has been very interesting to all Conneaut. The Seniors responsible for this excellent publication were Mary Dolan, Lillian Curtiss, Marion Tuttle, Betty Yesso, Betty Perkoski, Martha Perala, Gladys Bailey, Eva Draves, Mike Bartone, Eugene Blake, Margaret Butler, Edna Hill, Eva Jasinski, Shirley Loomis, Kay Marcus, Doris Patton, June Pearson, Betty Shaffer, Donna Shoemaker, Dolores Soltis, and Anna Yourchak. The staff for the Senior Tattler are as follows: Jane Green, editor-in-chief; Mary Dolan, Lilian Curtiss and Shirley Loomis, assistant editors; Marie Haskins, art editor; Marion Dunn, advertising manager; Betty Yesso, assistant advertisng manager; and Mary Means, circulation manager. Other 59 members on the staff were Marion Tuttle, Norma Howard, Martha Jane Merrill, Martha Perala, Betty Perkoski, Peggy Pinkerton, Patricia Maloney, George Putnicki, Frank March, Kay Marcus, Rebecca Ruffin, Gloria Ross, and Shirley Getz. Another group of people that we must not forget are those Seniors who won for themselves the right of membership in the Honor Society. The Honor Society has been very active this past year, and has sponsored a number of activities for the betterment of the school. The Senior members were Jane Green, Sara House, Robert Kananen, Mary Means, Grace Moore, Chester Penza, Berniece Raisian, Rebecca Ruffin, Miriam Wintturi, Verna Beers, Joe Contino, Lillian Curtiss, Mary Dolan, Ar-mond Gustaferro, Richard Lasko, Martha Jane Merrill, Warren Rogers, Dorothy Wanda, and Aino Vasti. Conneaut High School was very well represented at the Jefferson Scholarship Tests this year with Warren Rogers taking first place in the county; Mary Means, third place; Joe Contino, sixth; Sara House, seventh; and Grace Moore, Jim Lord, and Mary Loomis receiving honorable mention. Our representatives at Kent this year were Joe Contino and Warren Rogers, Physics; Mary Means and Mary Loomis, English; and Rebecca Ruffin and Berniece Raisian in Stenography IT. At the Girls’ Banquet, which was sponsored by the girls of the Senior Class, Shirley Getz acted as toastmistress, and Aino Vasti spoke as a representative of our class. The play, “Wisdom for Wives,” was given with the following cast of characters: Doris Patton. Phyllis Sterling, Marion Dunn, Mar-garet Butler, Helen Churchill, Gloria Ross, Mary Rist, Betty Steams, and Dorothy Wanda. A new organization this year was the Senior Girls’ Club which has been active during the last semester. It has sponsored several afternoon tea-dances and a skating partv which members of the whole school enjoyed. The very capable officers who led the club were Mary Alice Wilson, president; Patricia Maloney, vice president; Dor- othy Wanda, secretary; and Rebecca Ruffin, treasurer. The Senior officers for the French Club were Dorothy Wanda, president; Eleanor Schwer, vice president • Betty Stearns, secretary; and Gladys Bailey, treasurer. Another new activity of the high school has been the presentation of two radio plays over Station WICA. The first of these was “Let Freedom Ring,” presented on December 8 by the Senior and Junior Public Speaking Classes under the direction of Miss Ballou and Miss Peck. Mr. Sheehan was in charge of the other play, “Washington the Farmer,” which when presented on May 14, introduced a new series of programs entitled “American Yesterdays.” The selection of the cast included many Seniors. The most outstanding organization that was formed this last year was the A Cap-pella Choir under the leadership of Mr. Mackey. This group of singers won outstanding praise at their first concert, and have delighted audiences on many occasions since. The voices of the following Seniors will be greatly missed: Gladys Bailey, Verna Beers, Loren Burns, Margaret Butler, Marion Dunn, Jane Green, Marian and Ruthella Hall, Marie Haskins, Edna Hill, Sara House, Norma Howard, Mary Loomis, Jim Lord, Shirley Loomis, Katherine Lovell, Martha Perala, Mary Rist, Warren Rogers, Betty Shaffer, Phyllis Sterling, Aino Vasti, Miriam Wintturi, Joe Contino, Grace Moore, Shirley Getz, Frank March, and Jacque Rhodes. We have attempted to mention the high points in the history of our class, and now as we one hundred and twenty-four Seniors are about to leave Conneaut High School forever, we wish to express our deep appreciation to Mr. Koontz, Mr. Henry, and the faculty for their fine advice and guidance throughout our three years in Senior High. We regret to leave Conneaut High School where we have had so many happy experiences. We hope that in the future we can continue making history------a great- er history than we have written here. May we be graduates of which Conneaut High School will be proud. 60 Class Kenneth Keidel is our class lawyer. After serious contemplation and consultation he has drawn up our last will and testament, which is here printed.

KEITH KEIDEL, Class Lawyer 63 Class Prophecy The senior class elected Peggy Pinkerton as prophet. Shall we see what Prophet Peg has discovered in the future for us? Let me take you by the hand, and I will show you to a land of “Just Pretend” . . . here is where you‘11 see my dears “What Has Happened in Twenty Years.” ALBERTA and ELSIE, still pay and fair, chewing their gum in the spotlight’s glare. They advertise FERL Bubble Gum . . . listen to them, and you’ll all buy some. ARDYS is clever ... of that there’s no doubt, for she’s made a floor lamp which knows when to go out. By making paper doll’s fancy lace collars PETITE MARIE earns the big silver dollars. Another of our rising young people is NORMA who climbs up any steeple, and blithely singing as if at play, merrily brushes the clouds away. ARMAND GUSTAFERRO is a great sensation; he is raising beans and parsley on the ROGERS plantation. MIKE BARTONE has achieved great class, he can dance on the rim of a water glass. NOW ELEANOR SCIIWER, IRENE, and KATHLEEN sell blackberries which aren’t red when they’re green. There’s little GEORGE ADAMS, he’d give you the fidgets; in the BRUSH and BAILEY circus he’s performing as a midget. GLORIA ROSS and BETTY SHAFFER are famous collectors of old note book paper. MARTHA JANE MERRILL is doing alright. She’s at Madison Square Garden promoting a fight. AINO VASTI and VIRGINIA WAKE-MAN are both in love with a Nickel Plate brakeman. MYRON’S latest novel, “The Centipede Vexed” is used in the schools as a Biology Text. GRIFF, LORD and KNIGHT, the “Three Musketeers”, you will usually see them out hunting for “dears”. Lovely JANE GREEN and sweet VERNA BEERS, as dramatic actresses will put you in tears. A tight rope walker sways on his wire; it’s WARREN PENNELL, our old death defier! Now there’s HARLAND STEWART and also there’s CLAIR: they claim they’re in the movies . . . but we don’t know where. MIKE ARCARO and our good friend BUD GRABLE, they work sometimes, as much as they are able. BETTY PERKOSKI and JOE MOROSKI wear out iron soled shoes dancing to the latest “blues”. GRACE MOORE and MARY MEANS have very fine jobs catching stray sunbeams. JOHN PUGH and BOB KANANEN, also very wise, now have a winter home for poor decrepit flies. REBECCA RUFFIN, that nice little muffin, serves turkey dinners with plenty of stuffin’. And MARY LOOMIS . . . how hard she works makng cross word puzzles for long bearded Turks. DOUGLAS PLANK with all his stale jokes edits the magazine “Simple Folks.” Young JACKIE ROACH, who once worked in at Grants, now studies Botany, and learns about plants. JOHNNY JOHNSTON . . . what a pity! is teaching dancing in New York City. RHEA and JUNE have become very 64 wealthy by teaching the lady bugs how to keep healthy. BOSTON teaches a ladies’ gym and keeps them moving with lots of vim. GEORGE “PUT” is tearing up all the sod; he’s teaching golf with a curtain rod. BERUS, the butcher, sells yards of bologna to a pretty little housewife, PATRICIA MALONEY. The greatest music in the land is RHODE’S “Jittery Rubber Band.” Now we find PEARSON, POORE, and PENZA making house to house calls with their “Scour Rite Klenza”. DOTTY MARTIN, sweet as ever . . . vows she’s going to marry . . . never! As musical entertainers BURNS and KEIDEL are clever: to reach high T is their earnest endeavor. CONTINO also has a band to lead, while his wife PEG BUTLER sells canary bird seed. Our friend JACK QUINN finds his job a delight; he’s in charge of the lightning bugs which he turns on every night. DORIS and KAY without any pay, give ukelele solos on Moonlight Bay. The three SHIRLEYS, LOOMIS, GETZ and REGER, have a beauty parlor . . . Say! I never saw one bigger. SARA HOUSE wears out a phone each day talking and talking the time away. “Statistics” is RAY RAWLING’S calling ... he even knows why Niagara’s falling. JULIA (BARTONE) and MARY (AR-MENI) have attained their ideal for they raise onions which are lovely to peel. BETTY CRANDALL and ESTHER are in the Ballet: HELEN CHURCHILL tap dances on good old Broadway. MARION DUNN, that most coy and shy little one, she has traveled in every land under the sun. The latest invention of CHRISTOPHER and HAZEN is a gold plated mouse trap with rubies a-blazing. LASKO and CLANCY sail far out to sea, but both must retire soon with water on the knee. Brave BETTY YESSO and sweet ELLEN SPEER are air hostesses famous with never a fear. LUCILLE GAURINO and lovely RUTH- ELLA never have trouble in catching a fella. VIRGINIA DRURY, LILLIAN CURTISS and EVA DRAVES are queens in “Ye Amboy Kingdom” with each a dozen slaves. MARY DOLAN and MARIAN HALL are teaching young children how to grow tall. NAOMI BISHOP and EDNA HILL stole boy friend Jack away from Jill. Two girls, who, as of old, really work fast, are WYNONA MACMILLAN and ETHEL MAST; with DELORES SOLTIS and KATHERINE MURPHY, they have a big farm for last year’s turkeys. Think of MARTHA PERALA and MIRIAM WINTTURI in a South Sea Island’s hurricane fury, but JOE KACZOROWSKI and JUNIOR DAMON soon put a stop to all that raining. In their garage BLAKE and BECKER work with zest; ’Tis said they like purple roadsters best. FRED BRAINARD and our friend quiet GEORGE COLLAR are painless dentists . . . Hear the patients holler! ANERVA, AUDREY, and beautiful MA-NA took a boat trip all the way to Havana, and there on top of a gorgeous throne sat no one else but our old friend TA-VONE. MARIAN TUTTLE and BETTY STEARNS are still in college trying to learn from MARY WILSON and DOROTHY WANDA how to make the Iboys become fond...a and fond...a. BERNICE, MARY ANN and MARCUS KAY are in the limelight every day, performing acrobatic tricks for the great producer DORIS MIX. ANNA YOURCHAK and PHYLLIS STERLING knit a little, then some purling for the soldier boys in camp, or maybe . . . for a tramp. A very fine baker is DONNA SHOEMAKER: her cakes are renowned all the world round. LIONEL WYLIE and LEONARD LAI-TENEN live at their ease; they can tell you why the moon’s green cheese, and how mosquitoes reduce their knees. JOE VISTEJN and JOHN WOTOWICZ 65 appear very busy; they’re making a nonrattle frame for their lizzie. ROBERT NEWELL was the next whom we saw preparing a bar exam in Parliamentary Law. EVA JASINSKI, BEATRICE HOWARD, and MARIAN BUSCH are famous painters, What more can they wish? They gild up little sardines and sell them as gold fish. Now there’s TOM STREEPER, believe . i or not, he’s just a zoo keeper. Today this story you may doubt. But in twenty more years . . . well, you’ll find out!
