A few weeks ago we decided to reminisce. As we walked down Main Street, we saw TONY SINDONI's Barber Shop. Among his regular customers were TONY MIDILI, JOHN CNEWTJ DE PALMA, and JOHN IULIUCCI. Tony and Newt are co- owners of a chain of gas stations, Johnny Iuliucci has his own band which just returned from a trip to Europe. Next door to Tony's is JEAN SHERPINSKY'S Beauty Salon. In her shop we met EILEEN BALDWIN, now a popular singer, and RITA DE- SILVIO, who is a model for well known fashion magazines. Our local newspaper reported that there was to be an Armed Forces Parade, and as we were impatiently waiting, GLORIA MOSLEY and KATHY ANGEL greeted us as they passed in the street, They are now army nurses. We also recognized LOR- RAINE NEHER as the head majorette for Navyls band. After the parade we went shopping. In our small town de- partment store we met MARYANN MAURO and DAVE IUL- IUCCI who, of course, are now Mr. and Mrs.'l They are the parents of five girls and one boy, ages 13 through 22. We're mak- ing a fair guess that a few years ago, CHARLIE SAFARYN, manufacturer of Gerber's Baby Foods, did a great deal of busi- ness from these two. As we browsed through the store we saw JOYCE KELLING, supervisor of nurses, at Lankenau Hospital, buying her uniforms. We decided to wander into the fur department . . . just to look. There hanging on the wall was a huge picture of KIRK DUBLE, the Great White Hunter? By the way, Kirk also owns the big- gest mink farm in the United States. The beauty salon did not have the appearance of a very ritzy place, but it was very neat, the operators more than capable of their positions. JOANN ATTURO was styling CAROL SARAP- PA'S hair. Carol, by the way, is now the wife of a very successful lawyer. Assisting JoAnn were CAROL CASSARIO and JOSE- PHINE ALOTTO. They were styling DIANE MONTEMUR- RO'S and LOIS PRATT'S hair, respectively. Diane and Lois are both happily married secretaries. From the department store we proceeded to the parking lot to get our car. On the way, we met BECKY LLOYD, who comrrienced to tell us of her many interesting experiences as a social worker. We were surprised to hear that BETTY EDMONDS lives only a block away from her. Betty is very active in different organiza- tions in the town, and gives much of her time and energy to charities. Each day our town grows in size and population. We are sure that one day it will become a city. Two clothing establishments opened recently, one of which is LOIS HEGGAN'S Women's Apparel Shop. The other was BILL ROHLOFF's Formal Wear for Men. We were looking forward to a drive in the country, and since we had finished our little tour of the town, we decided to start out at once. A few miles out in the country, we noticed a. mail- box with a familiar name on it. We imagined as much! In the kitchen of a huge farmhouse was the former CHRIS ACE baking pies. Her eleven boys were outside practicing football with their one-time famous father. Visiting with her was MIMI BAR- BACCIA, who is planning to join her husband in Europe in the next few months. We asked if she liked living an army life and moving all over the world, and by her reply it was obvious that she did. While Chris was showing us around her vast farm, we ran into ANTHONY MASSO, who is now an agricultural agent. As we drove away from the farm, we realized that the sounds we had been hearing were not our imagination, they were hunger pangs. Since it would be some time before we would arrive in the city, we decided to stop for lunch along the way. In a short time, we noticed a sign, FRANK REED'S Refreshment Stand. We couldn't believe that it might be the same boy who was in our class 25 years ago. Well you can imagine our surprise when we found out it really was dear old Frank! While we were there, DE- LORES BOCCUTI and PAT IUCIUCCI came in for lunch. They both work as secretaries for a large publishing company in that area. Dee and Pat are now making S125 a week. We continued on our way, and just as we were beginning to rela.x, the car stopped . . . dead. Fortunately for us, it happened CLASS SPRING directly in front of JOHN WELNER'S service station. John, an excellent mechanic, soon had our car repaired. This time when we started out, we were no longer on the fa- miliar, bumpy, country road. This new, smooth road is one of the many constructions of JOE CALABRIA, an engineer. As usual, the city was crowded with busy people when we ar- rived there. We saw DANNY KOVOLOSKY teaching FRANK TEMPLETON how to hot rod in a truck. You see, Danny has a driving school for future truck drivers, only. A few years ago, Danny was in the chicken business with RAY LUTZ. Ray did all the work. Suddenly we saw BARBARA SCOTT enter a drugstore. We parked our car and followed her. We were dying to know what she had been doing all these years. We found her at the cosmet- ics counter and began to fire all sorts of questions at her. Barb told us she had inherited a large sum of money from her great aunt, and has been taking life easy. JACK SACHLEBEN was the pharmacist at the drugstore. We asked him to fill a prescrip- tion for sleeping tablets. He said these pills guaranteed 16 hours uninterrupted sleep because they were manufactured by GEORGE LE CONEY-JERRY MARTIN, Inc. After we left the drugstore, we met PAUL MAYBERRY walk- ing The Marvelous Mayberry Dogs. We did not speak long to Paul because his dogs had to be at the CBS studio to rehearse for a television show. Walking on, we saw the huge Bulletin Building loom before us and at the same time we all suggested a tour of the publishing firm. We entered the building and immediately recognized the receptionist as JUDY BENTON. We inquired if she had seen IDA IULIUCCI in the last few years. She replied, How could Ida exist without me, her life-long pal. Judy told us that Ida is now the manager of the bookkeeping department at the Bulletin. Her directions for locating the editor were a little hazy, but after a time we found his office. There on the door was, FRANK AQUENA, Editor. Frank really has come up in the world. BARBARA LINDEN, Frankls private secretary, was busily en- grossed in her work. She told him a few of his old classmates from Edgewood had come to visit him. Frank arranged for three guides to tour us around. FRANK HALFMAN, JOE WINNERS, and GEORGE MAUGER, who are employees of the Bulletin, had the pleasant duty of showing us each step of producing the daily paper. The machinery was tremendous but dangerous. The Bulletin has its own nurse and doctor for just such an emergency. BOBBIE HAS- SELBUSCH we found to be the nurse, and ALLAN WURTZ, the doctor. Bobbie is now married to a famous rock 'n roll singer, Allen is still a bachelor as we expected. EDDIE HNIEDZIEJKO, an on-the-spot news reporter had called the ambulance and when it arrived we discovered the driver to be BOB BAUERS. Bob's motto always used to be Have car, will travel - fast! We thought we'd add a little intellectual jaunt to our busy schedule, so, the Museum of Fine Arts was next on the agenda. Previously, there had been a contest held, and we were able to obtain the name of the winner. But, naturally, it was NANCY BANKS. We were told that her painting was hanging in the main hall. We must admit, we found it quite difficult to interpret, It might be described as three round circles with eyes in them. It was called Deep Purple. While delighting in other paintings, we met BOBBIE FAVIL- LA and RITA SAIA looking intently at a beautiful portrait. We recognized them at once, and after the usual salutations we finally learned what they have been doing all these years. Rita was mar- ried two years after graduation. Even though her husband in- sisted she quit working, Rita was determined to be a wife, mother, and career girl all in one. And she has done it quite successfully. She is the private secretary to JOHN ROWAND, who is a famous historian. Bobbie is residing in the Warwick Hotel with her mil- lionaire husband. She married her boss. Rita and Bobbie were commenting on the portrait which was painted by NANCEE RYDER. She has recently completed an- other painting titled The Tall Man. She used as her model 58
