After leaving Tom ' s ranch, I went to Iowa to visit KAREN WHITEHAIR and her husband. Karen is a Business Teacher in the state ' s most modern high school. Her husband is manager of the Des Moines branch o the Farm Bureau. They have four rambunctious children. Next my trip took me to see KAREN (BAXLA) MYERS and VAN MYERS in Nevada. Van is now a Veterinarian and rancher. He and Karen live on a 150 acre ranch where Karen is hap- py just watching their four children. After leaving the Myers ' I went to Arizona to see J, KAYE (HARLEY) WILSON. J. Kaye ' s husband is superintendent of the Tucson Branch of General Motors. They live in a beautiful colonial style home and have four children. From Arizona I flew to New Mexico to see JERRY SPRINGER and his wife. Jerry is owner and operator of the dude ranch, which is a very famous resort. Many movie stars go there for their vacations. While 1 was there I saw Liz Taylor and her twelfth husband. Jerry and his wife have six charming children. Jerry said that LARl Y MOORE was in California, so off I flew. 1 was lucky to catch Larry between classes. He is now a Professor of History at U.C.L. A. Larry and his wife have three children. After a days layover, I went with Larry and his family to the Rose Bowl Parade. We had a wonderful time. In Los Angeles 1 was met by EMILEE GLOVER and her husband. Emilee is a Pediatrician in the city ' s finest hospital and her husband is a brain surgeon. They have two intelligent child- ren. After leaving L. A. , 1 went to Hollywood where MARY and MARTHA BICKFORD are mak- ing records for R.C. A. Victor. I ' m sure you ' ve heard tlieir latest hit; it ' s on the top ten. Mary is married to a director and has five children, while Martha is married to a playwrite and raises a family of four. Upon leaving California, I went to Hawaii. Here I went to see ROSY CANADA. Her husband is an Admiral m tire Na ' y and Rosy is a teacher in one of the schools. They have three little boys. JAYNE HUFFMAN also li es in Hawaii so 1 went to see her next. She is the secretary to the President of the Hawaiian Pineapple Co. Jayne is married and has three children. From Hawa ii I went to see LARRY DYER in Korea where he is a medical missionary. Larry is married and has a family of three. 1 hope you have enjoyed hearing about tlie class. All of them have had good fortune and they are all very happy. Fortune has smiled on me too. 1 am married and have three children. We live in Fort Wayne, Indiana where my husband is Vice-President in one of the city ' s finest banks. Everyone said hello and all wish you the best of luck in your new administrative position at Columbia. Sincerely yours, LINDA (Fowler) LAYMON 23
