Model-A Ford, I had when I was a senior in 1949.” The citizens were over-whelmed with the exploitations of the trapeze artists— Joan McAndrew, Virginia Biggs, and Ken Terpstra — who per- formed every night of the Home- coming. They are the renowned, Zany Dazzlers.” Interesting and helpful lectures were given on modern improvements in farming and the up-kcep of the farm by Mr. Robert Moolenaar, of the Agriculture Department of Pur- due University. The First-Aid Station on the grounds was under the skillful ad- ministration of Dr. Don Fieldhouse and Miss Joyce Arens, R. N. The town is grateful to them for their assistance in helping to make the Homecoming a success. We would like to inform the resi- dents of this community as to how the speaker, the Governor of In- diana, was able to make his timed ap- pearance here for his speech. All thanks go to the manager of the In- dianapolis City Airport, Mr. Robert Dwyer, and his secretary, Miss Mari- lyn Sauer, for their speedy connec- tions. For those of you who do not know, we’d like to inform the friends of this couple that their engagement announcement appeared in the In- dianapolis Star” last week. Within the next few days, pic- tures of the Homecoming will ap- pear in this newspaper. These pic- tures were taken by Ace Photog- rapher, Mr. George Konovsky of West Lafayette, Indiana. Miss Ger- aldine Belstra, news photographer of this paper, assisted him in taking the pictures. With the ending of the Home- coming, we have found that many of the class of 1949 have come into fame and fortune in many different walks of life. This has especially been brought to my attention, since I, your editor, Dolores DeVries, was a member of that class. We are happy that all of us were able to meet again after 10 years to talk over exper- iences that we have had individually. Thanks to the Homecoming for bringing us all together again after 10 long, eventful years. The Editor
