Who should come running up at that moment, but Margaret Bell. She had become director of an outstanding school of nursing. Speaking of nurses. Sherrill Stepp tells us that she has been on a very difficult case. For the past few weeks she has been the private nurse of the president. The president of the P. T. A. , that is. For a few seconds we don’t remember the tall woman so beautifully dressed as being a mem- ber of our graduating class. Her long blonde hair is done up on top of her head. This style is the rage of the world. This woman, none other than Carol Pfingston, originated the style herself. Harold Pfingston has become a beatnik. He looks very nice in his two week beard. He is famous among the beatniks as a poet. His latest poem is ”1 did the Cha-Cha of My Life When I Backed into Mac the Knife. Pete Koch, a former Texas Ranger, has just gotten a patent on his new invention. It is called Pete's Parent-Proof Parking Place. Since he has become rich with this invention, he has hired Bonnie Weeks as his secretary. He had to, because Bonnie gave him the idea for the invention. Linda Graham is the next to greet us. She is dressed in a dazzling white dress; she is used to wearing white because she is in medical technology. She is working on a new serum for the prevention of spring fever. Although Becky Hooker isn't dressed in white tonight, she wears it during her working hours because she is a dental hygienist, better known as a torturer's assistant.” We hear a familiar laugh just then and turn to find Roland Mays and Richard Morton approaching us. Roland has become an outstanding football coach. His team has never been beaten. Richard Morton is the star of the team. He plays way-back (or was it halfback), like always. We notice a crowd around one tall woman. When we join the crowd we recognize her as Diana Crow. She is now a secretary to the United States Embassy to France. One woman is preparing to leave, and we recognize her as the former Nadine Kelley. She says she couldn't find a baby-sitter so she left her husband with the kids. Nadine was the first to try our invention. What is our invention?! Surely you've heard of the Invisible Guy-wires. ” Girls, we guarantee you'll catch your man if you use our guy wires. It worked for Nadine. Only one member of our class is not in attendance. It seems, for one reason or another, Steve Woodrome had to move to Canada and can't come back to the U. S. anyway, we hear

Our Junior year we had Mrs. May as our sponsor. We lost Genevieve Bayles, Delmer Fred- erick, Norman Parker, and Douglas Campbell. We gained Steve Woodrome and Len May, At last we are the mighty Seniors of Eads High. Our sponsor is Mr. Robert Greenwell. We lost Melvin Brian, Dean Carey, Byron Torkelson. Norman Parker, Len May, and George King. In our Senior year there were twenty graduates. They were: Nancy Anderson, Joyce Barber, Margaret Bell. Cardon Berry, Robert Crabtree, Diana Crow, Jean Durrett, Linda Graham, David Harrison, Becky Hooker, Pete Koch, Nadine Kelley, Roland Mays, Carolyn Moore, Richard Morton, Carol Pfingston, Harold Pfingston, Sherrill Stepp, Bonnie Weeks, and Steve Woodrome. Many years have passed since we graduated in the class of 1960. It is now 1975 and we are journeying back to the dear old high school to celebrate the 50th birthday of our former principal and sponsor, Mr. R. L. Greenwell. As you can see, he aged ten years in 1960. Since the fastest way to get to Eads is by airplane, we decided to fly. You can imagine our surprise when we discovered that the stewardess on our plane was Nancy Anderson. We hardly recognized her because she has grown a couple of inches. She now stands 5'7. As usual, we are the last to arrive. This celebration takes place in the old gym. since the new one hadn't been built yet in 1960. The first person we see is Carolyn Moore. She is dressed in a dress of the latest styles of Paris. While talking with Carolyn we learn that she is the social secretary of Rock Hudson. Her job is to plan and attend his parties, which, in the past, have all been tremendous successes. Expecting to see everyone dressed in their Sunday best, we are surprised to see a man dressed like a bum; complete with shabby tophat. He is Cardon Berry. He explains his clothes like this: He earned his first million as a mattress tester, but Cardon was never one to take things lying down; consequently he hit the road and hasn't earned a cent since. We next meet two distinguished looking gentlemen in the persons of Dave Harrison and Bob Crabtree. They inform us that they have been building a new Golden Gate Bridge. This was necessary because the old one had been sold so many times that no one could be certain who really owned it. Sponsored by STOP AND SHOP and CAMPBELL’S FLOWERS

that he is a Royal Canadian Mountie, and is doing quite well. As we leave the old gym, we are careful to see that things are just as we found them. They tell us that Dutch is head janitor here, so we don't want to make any extra work for him. We had better introduce ourselves. Our names are Joyce Barber and Jean Durrett. Joyce is the head of the Nursing Home for Bachelors. Jean is the director for the Durrett's Home for Wayward Girls and Cats. Zke Earth Would Crumble Jf Nancy had big hands. Roland could stand still while giving a speech. Joyce wasn't flirting with boys. Steve didn't blush. Jean was on time. Pete wasn't ditching studyhall. Becky caught on to a joke immediately. Cardon didn't have at least one pair of cowboy boots. Linda wasn't working on a project. Dave didn't have long curly eyelashes. Carol wasn't pestering Roland. Robert had a 1960 Chevrolet. Sherril didn't make straight A's. Richard didn't have a car. Diana didn’t have a new dress. Harold was five feet and fat. Carolyn learned to drive correctly. Margaret got in later than 9:00 on a week night. Bonnie wasn't riding around after the show. Sponsored by TRIANGLE CLOTHIER and SUPERIOR SERVICE
