Who's that a-sitting in the hall Until he's told to beat it? 'Tis Bellows with his S. E. P. For lunch I think he'd eat it! There's Brooks who likes to, fire a gun, And talk of early hist'ry, Where he will find a girlish ear To listen, is a myst'ry. Shirley has joined us just this year, So she feels rather new, We're glad to have her on the roll Of nineteen forty-two. Carini's kept our bankbook straight, And counted up our gold, We ought to have a goodly sum From those play seats we sold. Anna is always making clothes, She sews both well and fast, Elsa and Frances both are glad That high school days are past. Phyllis will make a jolly nurse, A good one, too, I think, She'll rub her patients' aching heads, And give them food and drink. Sylvia and Grace their final year Have sat in home room three, Whate'er they say, we're very sure They're where they want to be. Whene'er you hear a strident voice In argument raised high, That is just Lindner telling Coach The bow and when and why. Charlie a cowboy wants to be With lariat and gun, Alberta Jaycox thinks a lad In '45 is fun. Louis is famous for the gum That keeps the Wrigleys rich, While Johnny says that if he sings He can't stay on the pitch. Now here's a boy so big and strong Yes, Harold Berdensey, He prob'ly is the fastest clerk In all the A and P. Our Howard likes the pretty maids, Or maybe only one, At any tate Aurelia thinks That Howard's lots of fun. Next year the faculty will miss Kind Freda, who at noon Will do the errands for them all, And get back nice and soon. Jepson, our ace-high honor man Intends to go to Yale, To keep his standards at the top He'll surely never fail. ' The junior Prom in '41 Had Marion for queen, No fairer maid upon a throne Had ever yet been seen. Edith is such a quiet girl, She never makes much noise, While Walter Czepiel has been The absentest of boys! Three Days of Gracie was the play The high school gave this year, With Barb'ra in the title role Friends came from far and near. Joy heads the Student Council now, His party broke the drum, And if they work as they parade They ought to make things hum. Brad johnson has been president Each year out of our four, H. Hesser loves his hat so much He wears it more and more. joan has an interest in a lad Who seems goodnatured,-very, When laundry work she recommends It's Chester Sanitary. Pop Roos is quite a sober man, His features never wriggle, But Anna Scovell, let me say, ls always in a giggle. The pen is stronger than the sword Is what our Shirley thinks, For she can dash an essay off In less than forty winks. Charlotte has taken up the bow She uses Cupid's darts, Her aim is deadly, for we know She's wounded many 'hearts. To be or not to be we read In Hamlet's mind did buzz, But Julia, Jen, and Gladys say To Waz or not to Waz. A ladies' man is Philip Smith, Nice things come tied up small- While jeepy Gesner is the boy Who likes to hurl the ball. Our josie's heart, they tell me true, Is in the army now, I haven't seen his uniform But he will be a wow! Walter is army- inded too, And soon we'll gear that he Is sailing bombers in the skies, Or, ships upon the sea. Clara will be a bridesmaid for Her sister when it's june, We know she'll be a pretty one And keep time to the tune. Doug Carlson is our nineteenth boy Our last one, too, it seems, That far-away look in his eye Means A-and-P-store dreams. Lil Taber is a quiet girl With shining yellow hair, And there's Elaine who's quiet, too, They make a silent pair. When all the class together meets To settle its affairs Each one presents his point of view And can be heard upstairs. Together we have worked and played Four years, and that's so long When You and I Were Young, Maggi Is now our fav'rite song. But altogether we can say We've had a happy time, And ev'ry one of us you'll find Somewhere within this rhyme. And our good class of '42, As you can plainly see, Should stay another year, for it's A class of '43, 9, ELIZABETH IRENE DAY 7 Prophecy-Class of 42 Radio Play Music .... sound of bugle. Announcer: We present the Forty and Two Play- house sketch of the week QMusic-fadeJ. The day: A Wednesday in August, 1947. The time: 9:00 P.M. The place: An army camp in New York state. The sun is sinking in the west as a car approaches a sentry at the camp gate. Yes, it is still light-war time was tripled in '44, re- member? A Connecticut politician, john Wollock brought the bill to the senate with the able assistance of Mayor LaGuardia. A three day fillibuster by Wol- lock followed and the bill was passed. It was a great victory for Wollock since it helped to close a deal be- tween himself and LaGuardia concerning the beach- going situation. The two of them own a life guard and rescuers association at Coney Island which under the circumstances was practically at a stand still. The time bill fixed all that, and the LaGuardia-Wollock enter- prises are booming. The car halts at the sentry's signal, and a man emerges to greet the soldier. They are 'amazed to see that they know each other. The driver of the vehicle is none other than Harold Duff Joy and he is addressing his old class mate, Walter P. Schwartz. They exchange greet- ings and Schwartz assures Joy that he can gain admit- tance to the reception center. Now let's listen in on the two. Schwartz: Well, I guess you'll. get through all right. You're familiar with the general procedure here, aren't you? By the way, what have you been doing? Joy: I'm at Atlantic City as a judge at the beauty contest held there every summer. It's interesting Work, done mostly in lower mathematics. See. that you are doing well for yourself. Schwartz: Sentry duty at present. It's better than eight days of K. P. I had my choice and this is the result. Joy: Hear that you're organizing the Trojan army. Schwartz: Plenty of truth in that, and as far as we know it will be a success. Joy: Well, here's wishing you luck. I want to get in and see Elsie Haase. She's receptionist here, isn't she? A certain.Sergeant submitted her picture as an entry in your annual contest, so I'm going to interview her. Say, how about meeting you at the Club Ferdinand later? When can you get off? Schwartz: About eleven. You knew that Gene Ges- ner bought that, didn't you? Joy: No, I didn'tg been in jersey most of the time. Schwartz: Oh yes, he's owner now and doing a good business-Cafe Society and all that. He threw a party for Wollock Saturday night. Anna was hostess, of course. joy: I can imagine. He married Anna Garbarino, didn't he? She's been quite prominent, I've heard. Her social activities have been very extensive. Schwartz: They have. She's a career woman. In- teresting thing: Doug Carlson is at the club tonight. His band hit first place last month-and there's a really good floor show. joy: Well, maybe we'll have a pretty good time. Like to see Gene and Doug. What's the floor show? Schwartz: Oh, the show? That's Lindner's troupe. Les Belles Femmes de Paris -classy burlesque. Joy: Really, I can't imagine Ernie in a racket like that. Some of our class have turned their lives far from the beaten path, and the results are startling. For in- stance, Hesser and Roos-they're both teachers at wo- men's colleges. Hesser's at Vassar as an instructor of mechanics and Roos at Connecticut College for Women. Schwartz: I have to agree with you. I've been sur- prised myself. To think that Maxwell House Coffee's best tester is Jepson Wulff! I guess he did so much testing at Yale that he couldn't leave it alone. Howard Knox is the bouncer at Club Ferdinand, while Brad Johnson has his own trap rock company now. He's trap rock agent for the town of Deep River. Probably his road work in our last school vacation started him off. joy: It's a lot different. Schwartz: I was over at happy Louie's last night. Louie Capitani runs that. It's located on Broadway. He and Jo Zaremba are married and he's got the best spaghetti and ravioli I ever ate. joy: There's no disputing his success, is there? Or Ray Bellows' either, as a matter of fact. Schwartz: What's he doing? I knew he was a psy- chiatrist. Joy: Oh yes, he still is, but he's moved his practice from the oilice to a Dude Ranch, which he has turned into a sanatorium for nervous ladies. Schwartz: Well, it's a swell profession if you like it, but I couldn't stand braiding neurotic women's hair and listening to sob stories ten hours a day. joy: I couldn't either. He's got Bud Berdensey for gardener, and how Bud stands it I don't know. Schwartz: While we're on the class subject, what- ever happened to Gladys Waz? I do know that Jennie is the editor of the New York Times and julia is head of the advertising on the same paper. Joy: Well, Gladys took Mr. Godowski up on that Let's settle down business, and they're happily married, living in Deep River. Schwartz: I alwaysrwondered when that would hap- pen. He proposed it so many times and to so many people! joy: Then we have to admit that conquest often brings a conqueror. Schwartz: You're right. Say, you know, it's sur- prising how many in the class have gone into the res- taurant business. Marian Johnson is married and owns half interest in a bakery. Joy: Not only Marian but Shirley Cirulnik has moved back to New York and has taken the stand with her, sauerkraut and all, to Broadway. She married a doctor but her position as a doctor's wife has not stopped her from grilling hot dogs. Schwartz: I always thought Shirley would go on the stage or try for summer stock. Joy: I did too. But the only one in our class who was so inclined and made a go of it is Shirley Seeley. She's property mistress at the Met, and doing well too. Perhaps it's due to her experience with school plays. Schwartz: Might be. Speaking of the restaurant business makes me think of Edie Heidtmann. ' She and her husband, Manny Machado, are sharing profits at his new service station since gas rationing has been discon- tinued. joy: Aurelia Negrelli is doing much the same for the No-Knox gasoline company. Schwartz: Is she? Well live years do bring changes. Joy: I'll say! I was surprised to End that Philip Smith is very interested in the lumber business. He's been promoted from picking up sticks to chopping. And Phyllis Cutone, sponsor of this program, makes it known that she gained her idea for her business that we all know as If You Don't-I,Will from Al Capps' advice for chi1lun. Schwartz: How's your own business, Duff? Joy: I like it but it needs more publicity. I'm going to see Julia Waz and ask her to run a section in the Times. Schwartz: Good idea. Joy: I thought so. She has Alberta jaycox as editor of a beautiful baby section. We may start a line like that at Atlantic City as a benefit for the Far East. Schwartz: Patriotic of you. Whoever thought of that? Joy: Grace Dudley. Heard of her as I left the Air Port this morning from Joan Harazda. She's in japan doing missionary work: material reconstruction and re- building morale. Schwartz: That's wonderful. How's Joan? Joy: She's fine, acting as an air hostess on a clipper. She saw Grace on her last trip. Joan's been elected Sweetheart of the Army, Navy, and Marines. Schwartz: I know: our post voted for her unani- mously. Joy: How's the camp treating you? Schwartz: All right. We've got a new librarian, Mrs. R. C. Faircloth . . . Frances Ely to you. joy: Is that right? Speaking of marriages, have you heard from Sylvia Gesner? Schwartz: Yes, except that her name is Stamplin now. Joy: I stand corrected. So she and john married. That was to be expected. Say, I read an ad in the paper the other day for the Connecticut River Tug Boat Lines run by Anna Scovell. Schwartz: I'd heard that. They call her Tug Boat Annie around the docks. Joy: Then I saw Czepiel's market ad too. Did you read of that murder in Tennessee? Schwartz: Yes, I did. Ghastly, wasn't it? I didn't get the details. Joy: Well, I don't know that I can enlighten you but the crime was committed, the murderer found, con- victed and executed. The D. A. was Harvey Brooks and the most peculiar part of the legal procedure was that Brooks dug the accused's grave and buried him free of charge. It's a policy of his-compensation of some sort. Schwartz: That is the most unusual item I've heard. Brooks appreciated Hamlet, but I never guessed that it would have that effect on him. Joy: I read that Barb McKenney is writing a book on his life as a District Attorney. Schwartz: That's true. She's going down there to do the work. She's traveled a great deal that way. Joy: Not only Barb but Charlie Raineault and Freda Taylor have done much traveling too. Charlie has a big chicken ranch in Texas and Freda went to California with a patient of hers. Schwartz: Elaine Spencer is in New York at the Danish Consulate. She's an interpreter. Joy: Well, we've located all the members of our class! I'm hours late for my appointment with Elsie, though. I'd better be getting along. Schwartz: All right then, I'll see you at the club. As a matter of fact, why don't you go to the U.S.O. Building and see how the show is there? Clara Bobien- ski and her all girl accordian band are featured guests, and it's swell entertainment. Joy: Thanks, I will. Is Clara the same little chat- terbox? iMusic up .... voices fade.J Announcer: And so the narrative ends. lMusic fadeJ Have you a task you don't feel like tackling? Let If You Don't-I Will help you.

Three Days of Gracie, a comedy presented in the Deep River Town Hall on Friday, April 10, proved not only good entertainment but also a record-breaking money maker. On April 28, the cast traveled to Higganum to give the play again at the request of the Higganum Grange. The leads were capably handled by Barbara McKenney, as Gracie, young college girl who turned the quiet home into bedlamg Aurelia Negrelli, as Philippa, her friend, Margret Segerquist, as Miss Kate, an old maid auntg and Lillian Batts, who protrayed the nonchalant maid, Effie, in the Waring household. They were ably supported by an excellent and well-chosen cast, directed by Mrs. Ely and Miss Hannon. THE CAST Grace Warner ....... ......... B ARBARA MCKENNEY Philippa Waring ...... ..........
