GEORGE HELMBRECHT, Custodian MRS. LAURA COX, Janitress NORMAN C. KOONTZ Superintendent B. A., M. A. Yale University Columbia University Members of the Class of 1943,1 salute you: I salute you as youth, the nation’s greatest asset, the source of national strength, the defense against the enemies of our country, the guarantee of the perpetuity of free governments and the hope of the future. Yours is not an ordinary experience. You have been chosen for a special honor, the honor of starting life at the beginning of an era, at a time when all human experience has been thrown into the crucible, when the dross is slowly being burned away and when ideals, new ideas and new issues, are being given practical implementation by all of the resources of nations. A clarion call to the work of righteousness, of courage, of loyalty, of tolerance, of charity and of patience has been sounded. This call has come to some of your class already. It will continue to come to all of you daily. In after years when memory brings back these moments to your minds may you be able to say, “I saw the world in a crisis and responded as well as I could. I gave myself to the cause of wholesome and brave living. I studied, I worked, I loved and, when duty called, I fought unsparingly and hopefully. I pray that I have been worthy of my generation.” My best wishes to you. Sincerely, Norman Koontz VIRGIL R. HENRY Principal B. S., M. Ed. Grove City College University of Pittsburgh Mr. Henry, We, the members of this year’s Tattler Staff wish to dedicate this issue of the year book to you. You have always been, throughout the last three years, our class friend and patient adviser, and we take this small and insignificant means of attempting to express our deep appreciation and high esteem we hold for you.

UM Inscription on the Liberty Bell: Proclaim Inhabitants Victory Corps Program December 7, 1941, brought “Pearl Harbor,” and as a result it brought many other thinngs, toe. Among these was a change in our school program. During the first eight weeks of the second semester, Cor.neaut High School instituted a system that never before had taken place in Conneaut. This new system was the Conneaut Senior High School Victory Corps Program. This program took place every day, the fourth period. The purpose of the activities was to enable boys and girls to be a better help, not only to themselves after they finish school, but to their country also, whether they be in the armed services or at home. Besides adding novelty to school life, the program was very worth while. Especially important were the blue print reading classes, the scrapbooks for disabled servicemen in hospitals and camps, the physical litness classes, the Red Cross, t irst Aid, and jiiany others that contributed knowledge all people, whether in war or in peace, should know. Following is a complete list of Victory Corps Activities and their sponsors: Mr. henry—War Stamps and Bonds. Miss Johnson—Pan-American Kelations and Knitting Class. Miss Peck—Scrapbook Club and Employment Bureau. Miss Ballou—Scrapbook Club and Red Cross. Mr. Koenig—Military Correspondence Pre-Induction Course. Miss Jewhurst—Red Cross. Mr. Sayre—First Aid Classes. Mr. Lytle—Blue Print Reading. Mr. Garcia—Boys’ Physical Fitness. Miss Gates—Girls’ Physical Fitness. Miss Williams—Knitting Class and Square Dancing. Miss Kennedy—Red Cross. Miss Rudd—Boy’s Cooking. Mr. Donovan—Girls’ Manual Training. Miss Dickey—Choir. Mr. Pardee—Band. Mr. Kenneth Loomis—Square Dancing. Special credit goes to Miss Leet, Miss Scott, and Mr. Kline Loomis for the effort ar.d help they, too, put forth in facilitating this program, and to all teachers for the much appreciated contributions of their time and patience for its maintenance.

OPERETTA “Waltz Dream” was the title of the operetta presented this year by the school May 6 7, in the Auditorium. This operetta was a great favorite on Broadway, but because of the complexity, in speech, dramatics, and music as well, il was rarely ever attempted to be produced by high schools. However, special praise is due the various directors, and the cast, itself, for putting on a splendid performance both nights. Miss Helen Dickey had charge of the music, Mr. Kenneth Loomis directed the dramatics, and Miss Betty Breth supervised the dancing. Miss Elizabeth Rudd took charge of the costumes and Mr. Kline Loomis promoted the sale of tickets. Mr. Howard Pardee deserves extra credit for his fine work with the orchestra. Miss Ava Ballou and Mr. Kline Loomis assisted with make up. leading parts were taken by: Curtis Crews, James Loomis, Mary Anna Mosher, Richard Miltner, Louise Narducci, Mary Kelly, Alfred Hoel, Jane Duffett, Charles H. Post, Robert Loomis, Richard McLaughlin, William Phelps, Dolly Parker, Jeanne Phelps, Randall Crabb, Jack Phipps, Isaiah Ruffin, Dean Gibson.

THE SENIOR PLAY The class of ’43 scored another success in the presentation of, “Showdown at Sawtooth,” under the able direction of Miss Peck. Slim Higganbottom, an ex-desfert rat, who runs a hotel and tends an air beacon on Sawtooth Mountain has a sudden rush in business as a cloud burst washes out the roads and sends people scurrying for shelter. Slim, and Martha Ward, the owner of a roadside restaurant, suspect one of the guests to be a sabotuer, who is there to put the beacon out of commission. Elmira Mabee, a matrimonial bureau husband-seeking woman; Captain Lowell Cartwright, apparently on some secret mission; Annie Little Pony, Slim’s bargaining Indian cook; Josiah Tuttle, an absent-minded professor; Lulu Hugger, a brazen sort of hussy; Capt. Leroy Cartwright, whose signature is similar to Lowell’s; and Ben Lawrence are all suspected. When the beacon is smashed Ben reveals himself as an F. B. I. agent and proceeds to solve the mystery with Lulu Hugger as the culprit.

Later in October, Robert Lytle became head coach and Andy Garcia assistant coach. This year Conneaut participated in eight football games, lost eight and won none. Although the football season wasn’t successful, no one can say that the determined Trojans ever stopped fighting. The opponents scored 248 points to Conneaut’s 6. The lone six points were scored by Sophomore, Bob Smith. With Conneaut’s invasion at the Meadville Bulldogs’ Stadium, September 19, the luckless Trojans started the season badly by the score of 33 0. The Willoughby Rangers then ventured to the Conneaut Stadium, September 27. Conneaut again lost with the score of 25-0. The game with Fairport, at the Skipper Stadium, was indeed unlucky for the hopes of thd Trojans, for although the Trojans wei'd at the Fairport one-foot line several times during the game, they managed to put only one marker across. Through an intercepted pass in the last thirty seconds of play, the Skippers won the game, 12-6. On October 9, the Harbor Mariners came to Conneaut where we again suffered defeat by the score of 32-0. On Friday, October 16, the locals advanced to the Paines-ville Red Raiders’ camp. There the smooth clicking Raiders’ machine steam-rollered 'he Trojans by the score of 25-0. Cn October 26, Geneva Eagles came roaring out of the West with a determined spirit, and went roaring back with the same spirit after beating Conneaut 25-0. The Men of Troy marched down to Girard, Ohio, on November 6. After a hopeless fight they lost by the score of 39-0. On November 13, the unlucky day of the year, the pride and joy of Conneaut invaded the lair of their old arch enemies, the Ashtabula Panthers. The powerhouse of the Panthers crushed the grim fighting forces of Conneaut with the use of some famed trick plays by the giant score of 56-0. The players receiving letters are Bob Smith, Henry Zappitelli, Maynard Groff, Jim Loomis, Bill Hasen, George Smith, Vernon Jarvi, Tony White, Jim Notte, Chuck Mundy, Nick Williams, Archy Trizna, Dick McLaughlin, Lyle Gaugh, Bob Knox, Curtis Crews, Carl Snyder, Wilbur Chidester, Gene McIntosh. The Elks treated the Trojans to the annual football banquet, with Coach Beede of Youngstown College as the principal speaker. This year the football team was managed capably by Jim Fortney and Dick Baker. TRACK Conneaut this year did not participate in Lake Shore League competition, because of the lack of transportation facilities, and because many of the boys were working in defense industries. 1932-43 Basketball Summary By Jim Campbell Conneaut Score Opponent Score Date Place Conneaut 33 Alumni 22 December 15, 1942 Here Conneaut 26 Rowe 30 December 16, 1943 There Conneaut 17 Rowe 28 January 5, 1943 Here Conneaut 24 Ashtabula Harbor 23 January 8, 1943 Here Conneaut 19 Ashtabula 34 January 15, 1943 Here Conneaut 21 Geneva :o January 22, 1943 Here Conneaut 40 Pierpont 17 January 29, 1943 Here Conneaut 30 Pierpont 26 January 30, 1943 There Conneaut 27 Girard, Pa. 28 February 2, 1943 There Conneaut 24 Ashtabula Harbor 26 February 5, 1943 There Conneaut 24 Ashtabula 39 February 12„ 1943 There Conneaut 30 Geneva 12 February 17, 1943 Here Conneaut 24 Geneva 25 February 19, 1943 There Conneaut 35 West Springfield 25 March 3, 1943 Here Conneaut 33 West Springfield 36 March 9, 1943 There Conneaut 31 Rowe 46 March 17, 1943 There Seniors graduating: Jim Loomis, Eugene Nevin, Jim Nelson, Dick Miller, Jack Phipps, and Don Gross.

In the 1942-43 season Conneaut participated in 17 games, winning seven and losing ten. The players scored 449 points to their opponents 483. When Conneaut met the Alumni on December 15 and sent them home hiding their heads (the score was 33-22) the fans knew they had a better-than average team. Thv first two games with Rowe were mistakes, so we'll forget about them and go on to the fray with Harbor in which the Trojans demonstrated for all to see that our team was the best in years. In that game our ultra-indomitable team won over a merely indomitable team. January 15, was an unlucky day foi Conneaut. We hadn’t won a game on that day in ten years (probably because we hadn’t had any scheduled on that date for ten years). At any rate, on January 15, the undefeatable Trojans were defeated 34-19 by a great Ashtabula team. In a game with Geneva (21-20) and in two games with Pierpont (40-17 and 30-26) the stalwart lads of the besieged city proved their competence in the way of making baskets. These three wins enabled the team to face their coach without withering. Last year, we arc led to understand, three of the first-team players got so badly scorched facing the coach that two months later, when two of them were walking down a street in Memphis, hiding their blackened faces, a kind old gentleman of the South stepped up and said, “It’s all right, boys. You don’t need to hide. President Lincoln freed you all in 1865.” But along came an unlucky day, followed in quick succession by two more unlucky days, and the three defeats, at Ashtabula Harbor (24-26); at Ashtabula (24-39); and the last at Girard, Pa. ,27-28), gave our win-loss column an inferiority-complex. When Girard returned for the second game they met a team which would have made the Celtics look silly, and were beaten 30-13. By a slight miscalculation, or something, The Trojans lost a game to Geneva, 25-24, but when we met West Springfield, on March 3, we showed them that for them the game had been a waste of gasoline only, for we triumphed, 35-25. We wasted gasoline going to West Springfield a week later, however, by the score of 33-36. On March 17, we refused to be beaten by Rowe and found that mere refusal means nothing. They won 31-46. At the tournament at Euclid Shore, Cleveland, on March 4, Conneaut became the recipient of more bad luck. We were slated to play Cleveland Heights, the team which went on to win the Cleveland play-off. We lost 21-55, but anyone from Conneaut will tell you we should have won. 01(4 111'.SIKA Left to Right—Donna Mae Perkio, Virginia Campbell. Carmen ('alaxvay, Mr. Pardee. Kdna Rintanen.

Class History By James R. Loomis Five score and ten weeks ago our teachers brought forth into this institution a new class conceived in ignorance and dedicated to the proposition that the status quo he maintained. Today we are engaged in a great examination testing whether this class or any class so conceived and so dedicated can graduate. We are met here on a great battle field of that examination. We have come to examine the records of that class to discover just what its achievements are. During the Sophomore year of our class we were very well represented scholastic-itdy. In the Kent Scholarship Tests held at Kent State University, Charles Post won first place in Plane Geometry. Marge Walsh placed 17 in English and Isaiah Ruffin placed 15th in Latin II. Our class representatives to the Student Council were Eugene Nevin, Carolyn Penza, Mary Byers and Bob Knox. These people were responsible for planning school improvements and regulating the conduct of the students. In the music department, Mr. Mackey formed the a cappella Choir. The Choir put on many concerts during the year and won wide acclaim. Members from our class were Curtis Crews, James Loomis and Julian Lewis. The High School operetta, “Up in the Air,” was one of the musical highlights of the year. Curtis Crews represented our class among the principals of the cast and many others sang in the chorus. A clarinet quartet including Julian Lewis received an e xcellent rating in the National Contest held in Michigan. Our football team, under the coaching of Johnny Brace, had an excellent season, placing third in the league. We defeated all but two of the league teams. Those playing were Wayne Kauppila, Jack Henessey, Carl Snyder, Bob Knox, Bill Basen, Curtis Crews, and Jim Loomis. The Basketball season was not so successful. The Trojans, although always trying, were unable to win any games. In Track Conneaut showed up better than it had for many years. We won several dual meets and placed fifth in the Lake Shore League meet. The members of the team were Jack Henessey, Jim Lomis, Wayne Kauppila, Nick Williams, Bob Knox and Don Gross. During our Junior year we continued to uphold our Scholastic record. We again sent a group of Students to Kent for the State Scholarship Tests. Once again Charles Post placed very high. This time in Chemistry. The a cappella Choir had another highly successful season. They sang many concerts away from home, adding to the recognition they won last year. The members of the choir this year were Dolly Parker, Alyce Jones, Marion Castrilla, Yean Yarnell, Jean Phelps, Joan DeMay, Mary Kelly, Julian Lewis, Bill Phelps, James Campbell, Curtis Crews, and James Loomis. This year, instead of an operetta, the a cappella Choir presented the BALLAD FOR AMERICANS, with Curtis Crews singing the solo part. On May 26th the Junior Class was host to the Senior Class at the annual Junior-Senior Prom. The hall wras decorated by a committee headed by Jack Phipps. An orchestra was hired to provide music for dancing. The football team again placed third in the league. The players from our class were Carl Snyder, Bill Basen, Bob Beard, Frank Colby, Curtis Crews, James Notte, Henry Zappitelli, Bob Knox, Charles Mundy, Jack Hennessey, Nick Williams and Jim Loomis. The Basketball team again had a poor season winning but two games. Those participating from our class were Jack Phipps, Don Gross, Jim Nelson, Jim Loomis, Eugene Nevin. Our bright spot in the basketball picture is the form system which Mr. Watson set up in the Junior High School. This program for training basketball players is beginning to show results. We can expect some very successful teams in the next few years. Our Senior year opened for most of us with a strange outlook. Instead of looking forward to college or to entering some industry, many of us were looking straight at Uncle Sam’s Armed Forces or one of the many war industries scattered around the country. Even our faculty was not the samo as the one we had last year. Mr. Brace who was our football coach, had enlisted in the Sea Bees. Mr. Watson, our basketball coach, resigned from the faculty to take a position in a war plant. The places Mr. Brace and Mr. Watson vacated were filled very capably , by Mr. Leson and Mr. Lytle. Later when Mr. Leson went into the army, Mr. Garcia came to fill his place. At the beginning of the year Miss Aaron was the new Spanish teacher, but she was asked by the Government to accept a position as Spanish translator in the office of the censor. Even the curriculum was not the same. Several new classes have been added to answer the demand that education meet present war neds. Among the first events of our Senior year was the party given to welcome the Sophomores. The hall was decorated with pumpkins, cornstalks and orange and black crepe paper. Dancing was the main item on the program. September 30 marked the occosion of the Senior Chestnut Hunt. About 150 Seniors took part in this outing along with many teachers. A tureen dinner was served. One of the greatest efforts Conneaut students have yet made to work furthering the war was on the collecting of scrap. This was a great cause and the students were all behind it pushing. December 10-11 marked the occasion of the annual Senior Play. The Seniors taking part were, James Loomis, Curtis Crews, Bill Basen, Jack Phipps, Walter Thayer. Doris Sayre, Marge Walsh, Miriam Pounds and Ann Paduano. The director was Miss Peck. On December 16th, the a capella Choir now under the direction of Miss Helen Dickey, made its initial appearance. Miss Dickey was appointed to take the place of Mr. Kaarlo Mackey, now in the Army. On January 21, the Senior Girls held their annual banquet at the Congregational Church. War activities was the theme of the program. On April 2, the boys of the Senior Class took the examinations sent out by the United States Army and Navy. These tests were intended to select young men of intelligence who could be put through a course of officer’s training. On May 14, the Senior Class were guests at the annual Junior-Senior Prom. The Paramount Club Orchestra provided the music for dancing. Owing to gas rationing, the Kent Tests which heretofore had always been attended by Conneaut Students, were not held. However, the Jefferson Test, which is restricted to Seniors, was held in the building. Charles Post placed first in this county and third in the State. James Campbell and James Loomis received honorable mention. Turning to sports, we find that the Trojans Football Team had a very unsuccessful year. The team, at first under the direction of Mr. Leson and later under Mr. Lytle, was defeated by every opponent they played. Those playing their last eames for Conneaut were Bob Beard, Bill Basen, James Loomis, Curtis Crews, Bob Knox, Nick Williams. Chuck Mundy, Jimmy Notte, Hank Zappitelli and Julian Lewis. Our Basketball Team began to show the results of the training they have received. The team this year won seven and lost ten. This is the best record in many years. The Seniors who played this year were James Loomis, James Nelson, Don Gross. Eugene Nevin, Dick Miller, Jack Phipps. Due to transportation difficulties, Conneaut has abandoned track this year. Class Prophecy Jack Phipps The stateroom door closed and at last I was alone. For many years I had anticipated this trip abroad, and now in the year 1968 my dreams were feeing fulfilled. I was on board the S. S. “Meinke,” named for that famous explorer, ROLAND MEINKE, who disappeared about twenty years ago in the wild and treacherous wastes of Amboy. It is believed that he is being held a captive by a fierce band of “natives” headed by “Wild HILL BASEN,” the king of Amboy, and his two “boogie-woogie” men, TOM HUNDERT-MARK and NICK WILLIAMS. I was hardly settled in my chair when someone knocked at the door of my stateroom. “Yes, who is it?” I asked. “Radiogram, sir,” came the reply. I opened the door. “Why CLYDE FAZENBAKER! What are you doing aooard this ship?” I asked. “I'm the radioman,” he replied. After talking for a few minutes I gave Clyde a generous tip and I was alone again. 1 opened the radiogram and quickly glancing .through the contents was shocked to read—“Jack Phipps—Western Rails are down ten percent, Signed: JOHN KOONTZ, President.” “Great day! Why should the market drop like this,” I said. No doubt KAi ZORATTI Hooded it. The police will surely get that guy yet! I iinished dressing and went up on dec.v. I had hardly seated myself in my deck chair when I heard someone bellow out my name. I looked up to see from what kind of individual such a voice could come. And there before me stood DICK ANDRE! I asked him if he were going to a masquerade, as he was dressed in a uniform trimmed with many rows of gold braid, in an offended tone he replied that he was the captain of the ship. He said that he was too busy at present to show me around the ship, but later would be glad to take me on a tour of inspection. He also said that ALICE MULLEN and DOROThY HALL were listed among the crew as stewardesses, and ERNIE R A SIAN was in charge of the “black gang.” jjick walKcd briskly away and 1 decided to take a stroll down the deck. 1 had not gone far when 1 ran into, and was Knocked down by, a lady wno was rounding a corner. Alter she had picked me up, 1 recognized her as BE'11 DAN 1 ELS. Uunng our conversation she told me that she was going to Europe to meet and marry her tnnu husband, the “fchiek of Araby,” better known to me as TOM LAMONT. She said sne had just returned from Reno, where she had uivorced her second husband, the burly wrestler, BOB “Muscles” KNOX, her lirst husband was none other than the famous metropolitan star, BILLY PHELPS. I returned to my dec-K chair to rest and regain my composure, but was soon interrupted by the deck steward who brought me the ship’s newspaper. Glancing at the sports’ page I noticed that CARL “Snubbs” SNYDER had been given a five-year contract as coach of Vassal College. Remarkable how the girls have taken such in interest in volley ball during the past few years 1 Turning to the social column, I saw that VIOLET ARMENI had been elected President of the Women’s Club at Conneaut and VIRGINIA DE PLACID A was serving as Vice President. The women are contemplating taking over the management of the city for a few days. It seems that they don’t like the way Mayor JIM CLANCY is running things. Glancing further down the column, I saw an item telling that the “curvaceous” movie star, DONNA MAE PERKIO, and her mad director, JULIAN LEWIS, have been “twosoming” it quite a bit lately. They have been seen together at the “Kutta Kuta Kaper,” LADISLAUS KEREKES’ Nite Club and Dance Hall. Perkio just starred in Lewis’ smash hit, “Gone With the Nitroglycerine.” This tale of heartbreak and woe was written by Mary Margaret, Lonely Heart. I knew Mary Margaret in the old days when she first started to shave. Her name was WALTER THAYER then. I noticed that RANDALL CRABB is flirting with death daily. He allows CURTIS CREWS to shave him while Crews sings the “Barber of Seville” at the Metropolitan Opera Company. Tiring of the paper, I decided to take another turn about the deck to try to discover who my shipmates might be. As I was passing by the salon, I heard the clear Lones ox a trumpet. 1 certainly wished to see who was playing such lovely music. 1 entered the room and there, to my surprise, 1 saw MtANK COLBY and WAYNE iyAUP-iTLA. The boys are going to tour the capitals of Europe and feature themselves as Having “the sweetest music this side of bonny White’s.” They are also featuring the world-famed dancer, DORIS CONGOS. As it was getting late, I decided to turn in for the night. Just as I was about to Start below I heard a plane zooming around over head. I was surprised to find a plane in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, and ran to tne rail to get a glimpse of it. Sure enough, there it was circling over the ship. Next morning I was informed that it was the world-famed aviatrix, ROSE COLANGELO, on another “record breaking night.” I muttered my astonishment at this feat. On the morning of the fourth day we sighted the coast of Ireland and that evening we (iocKed at bouthhampton. Going ashore, 1 went up to the nearest “bobby,” or snouid 1 say “oouoyette,” to direct me to my hotel. Imagine my surprise to find that I was speaking with aLfCE JONES. Alyce told me that since the war the women oi England have practically traded places with the men. bhe said that at this moment sne expected her husband (DiCK TUTTLE to you) was at home doing the washing, unless he was talking over the bacK-lence to tne old “wind bag” who is married to MONTEZ BAGNELL. Montez is owner and manager of the “Petite Dress Shoppe” and is doing a thriving business. She also told me that for the small sum of $1.50 a head CHARLOTTE ANTHONY would taKe you on a trip through China Town with PAUL-L E ZUSCHLAG pointing out the points of interest enroute. Leaving Alyce, I continued to my hotel. Walking up to the desk I noticed that the clerk was none other than JEAN YARNELL. 1 signed the register and Jean sum-bonded two bell-girls. 1 was amazed to find that they were ANN FADUANO and DOROTHEA NEIL. On the way up to my room they told me that the wife of the i.ord Mayor ol London was the former MARGE WALSH, whom 1 had known so well back in our high school days. They also said that the new and latest Duchess of Windsor was none other than DORIS SAYRE, it certainly seems as if the girls of the class of 1943 wtie going places in England. I had hardly settled myself for a rest when my mail was brought to me. Among the letters I loticed a large envelope. I quickly opened it and found that it was from DON GROSS. Don is still in the desert tracing the route of “Xenophon and the Ten Thousand.” Don’s latest book, “Dust Be My Destiny,” is very popular and considered one of the “best sellers.” 1 also received a letter from JIM LOOMIS. He has become quite a scientist and has succeeded in blowing up two laboratories and several balloons. His letter mentioned that BOB CLARK is now’ at the head of the famous Clark Bars Company. I hear that the bars have quite a kick in them nowadays. The best news was that MILES KLUMpll is coaching knitting at Western Reserve University with JOE GUARINO and JIM HILL sharpening the needles. Jim also mentioned that JOHN FEDOUSII is now Commissioner of Parks, and tells the public what they can and can’t do. After I finished reading my mail I decided to attend the great Broadway Hit, ‘Five Men on a Cigarette Butt” or “Chip That Stogie.” I noticed such famous personages as DORIS HOLMOMB, ADELE GALLETT, ANN BLY, JOANNE WILSON and BETTY SOLTIS in the chorus. The show was under the direction of JIM WANDA and produced by FLORA PIZZUTO. In the lobby of the theater I met MIKE ZAP-PITELLI, who is in the Brewer business and has earned the title of the most popular graduate of 1943 because of his good-looking clothes and lavish spending of money. Walking down the street at a rather fast pace, I almost passed BILL RYAN without recognizing him. Bill is now a famous author and lecturer. At present he is conducting a class at Oxford in “Perfect Relaxation in Class.” He mentioned that CHARLES POST is now running the Ye Olde Book Shoppe with JAMES WARREN and RAY SILLAMPA dusting off the books. I continued on my way to the hotel, and upon my arrival there was given a cable which had arrived during my absence. Bad news! It read, “Jack Phipps, London, England—Come to home office immediately. Big deal in offing with HENRY ZAP-PITELLI concerning the Zappitelli Bolt Nut Co.” It was signed by JEANNE PHELPS, my confidential secretary. Sensing the importance of such a vague message, I immediately made arrangements to take the next plane back to New York. Arriving at the airport I was greeted by the charming hostess, LORA JANE MOROSS, who told me that the plane would leave immediatedy. On board the plane I saw CHUCK MUNDY. “Chucky ’ is now the Tin Can magnate and also the author of the book subtitled, “When the Worm Turned.” Sitting with Mundy was another old friend, JIM ROCKWELL. Rockwell is now the President of a coffee concern whose motto is, “IPs good till you drop.” For economy Jimmy will tell you to buy his coffee in the “two Ton” package. While talking to Charles and James I learned that the pilot and co-pilot were JERRY MOONEY and JACK McKEE, respectively. 1 had never done much flying and I soon developed a bad case of air sickness. The nurse on board, who happened to be MARY KELLEY, soon had everything under control, and I began to feel better. While talking to Mary, I kept hearing a baby crying. I astced if there were children on board. She said the crying baby was the sixth child of the world-famous family man, EUGENE NEVIN and his wife, the former CAROLYN PENZA. Mrs. Nevin was in the United States recuperating from a serious illness and Eugene was showing the children a good time—at least so he thought. This sounded exactly like “Dutch,” and I decided to go up front to visit him. Eugene was certainly surprised to see me and told me all the latest news. It seems that JEAN JAR VELA has taken over the management of a famous institution at Mas-silon, Ohio. This is not to be confused with the “Nut Shoppe,” capably managed by VIOLA KALLIO and her able assistant, BERTHA HORVATH. He mentioned that SAM MADONNA is the labor leader on the West Coast who is causing all the trouble lately and that JOHN LEMAX, tough C. I. O. head, threatens to blow his (Madonna’s) head off. I also learned that JIM CAMPBELL has been made Dean of Children at Ot-terbein University. This surely was news to me, for the last time I had heard about Jim was when his wife, LUCILLE KING, the famous writer of the “Advice to the Lovelorn” column, had received her divorce in Reno. I returned to my seat and soon we were flying over New York, and as I looked out of the window I saw another plane doing some writing in the sky. Imagine my surprise when I made out the following advertisement, “Use Hahn’s Happy Hair Set.” Mary told me that this was MARY HAHN whom we had both once known in Conne-aut. She also said that PEARL LASLO is writing true love stories for the magazine “Love Before All” which is edited by GERTUDE SPANSKI. My chauffeur, JACK BEERS, was waiting for me at the airport. As we were driving along, I noticed a truck bearing an advertisement, “For The Skin You Hate To Touch, Use MIRIAM POUND’S Facial Cream.” As we passed the Pugh Department Store I was reminded of CISSY PUGH, its manager and JAN DEMAY, who has charge of the “refuge” department—this is not to be confused in any way with the “refuse” department. Jack told me that DOLLY PARKER had just received her degreu as Doctor of Education and for her thesis wrote a text book to be used in all kindergartens entitled “Putrid Puns for Pre-School Panty Waists.” Also that the BYERS sisters, DELMA and MARY, have opened a candy stole. This week they are featuring Byers’ Bon Bons for Bouncing Baby Boys. He told me that I must see the latest movie starring BETTY ARNETT in “The Grapes of Welsh.” Going down a side street I saw where HENRY BERUS has finally succeeded in hanging out his shingle after many years of study. Henry is now the sole owner of a pool room. I understand he obtained the money for the venture from his famous “ruler” business. As I walked into my office, I noticed AGNES KOVAL and MARION KUZMA playing Chinese Checkers with JUNE LESPERANCE doing some “kibitizing.” A fine staff I had working for me! I went on into my office only to find PHYLIS MAHONEY, THERESA PIZZI, RUTH SIMONE and my secretary playing bridge. This was the last straw. I slammed the door and left them. I dropped in at KAY HEW’S “Sociale Club and Shoppe.” Kay told me that the “Rainbow Sisters,” whom you hear on the air every night, are the former Misses PAULINE LOWER, MARY MECCI, and MILDRED MYERS. It is rumored that the “sisters” may break up, as two of them are fighting over the same man. The man in question is none other than BOB BEARD, the famous romantic lover in the movies about whom all the ladies are sighing. It seems that LYLE JEAN BLEASDALE has become a song writer. Lyle just cut loose with a new one called, “What Happened To The Cow That Jumped Over The Moon, Shine.” As I stepped out into the street after leaving Kay, I noticed a sign across the street which advertised a girls’ basketball tournament. One of the teams included RUTH HOGLE, FLORENCE HEARD, BETTY HAZELTINE, JOYCE HARLACHER and SHIRLEY BURDICK. Their coach is JIM NOTTE. They call themselves “The Mudhens.” Walking down the street I met HENRY CASTRILLA. He said that he had just finished a post-graduate course at old P. U. Among his fellow students were VERA and VIOLA BISHOP, who are trying to track down the positive electrons in Vitamin B 4. It seems that LEO ELORANTO is quite an athlete and has just won the swiming championship from Alcatraz to the mainland. Henry further stated that the world-famous literary critic, ISAIAH RUFFIN has had his life threatened because he refused to read and criticize the latest book “The Road To Nowhere” or “Why He Didn’t Get There,” written by the eminent author, GAY BASSA. I opened the door of my house just in time to hear “the all-girl orchestra” under the direction of MOLLY ANN STOLSON and featuring MARION CASTRILLA as vocalist. Sitting there in my easy chair and dreaming of the days gone by, I decided that ;n the short time of one week I met or heard from all of the members of the famous Class of 1943 and that as a class I had every reason to be proud of them. Class Will We, the pride and joy of Conneaut High School for three whole years, being in our usual state of suspended animation, do hereby will our abilities or disabilities, etc., to our hapeless but loyal followers.
