Hotel de Paris Monte Carlo, Monaco June 1, 1976 Mr. John Doop 1049 Fifth Avenue New York 1, New York Dear John, VVell, here I am in the fabulous Hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo. What a town! You'll never guess who the pilot and co-pilot were on the supersonic jet I flew over on. Do you remember Larry McMahan and David Fisher? I understand they have quite a rec- ord as a successful flying team. Bar- bara Gage, Colleen Peck, and Kath- leen Platt were stewardesses, and Da- vid Miller was the porter who hand- led my luggage. Wayne Needles was the jet specialist who accompanied us on the trip. Don Russell and How- ard Poslick were there to refuel the plane when we landed. The cabby who drove me to the ho- tel was Charles Allen, the hotel man- ager was Johnny Jeter, and the bell- hop was Ronnie Feger. I was certain- ly surprised to see so many '56 grad- uates in Monte Carlo. Last night I went to the famous Casino de Monte Carlo where Bob Dundas and James Landrum are the featured vocalists with John Bull- ard's band. Band members, John, i11- clude one of your most famous stu- dents, Bob Bailey, on the trumpet. Also there is Montie Jones and Bill Hill, the trombone duet team, Terry Hitchcock on the sax, and Joe Hume as the bass viol thumper. Gregg Bond and Cindy Siler provide entertain- ment by way of a flashy dance rou- tine. Dale H athoot and Phil Harriss are two of the doormen and the dining room hostess was Lillie Regier. Tomorrow I leave for Paris, I will write you again from there. So long, Ann. Le Grande Hotel Paris, France June 5, 1976 Mr. John Doop 1049 Fifth Avenue New York 1, New York Dear John, I love Paris in the springtime. Oh, John, Paris is just beautiful. You would have especially enjoyed being with me last night at the Follies Some of the beautiful chorus girls were Sandra Bowen, Willa Jean Cook, THE QUILL ywube Qywfdze BY JOHN Door AND ANN HAYES Janet Dage, Virginia Merritt, Rose Etta Durbin, Donna Holteen, Ann Austin, Billie Bushnell, Kay Ketter- ing, Manrine Fest, Jean Pearson, Karyn H erren, and Dorothy Lansden. Master of ceremonies was cigar smok- ing Wade Chambers, following up his high school N.F.L. career with more public speaking. I also saw some former E.H.S. stu- dents in the audience. They included Dick Scarritt, U. S. ambassador to France, the famous Jones family, consisting of Max, Kathaleen, Doro- thy, Clark, and Carl, and Marilyn Monroe, successful movie actress, for- merly known to us as Marilyn Giles. This morning I visited the Paris Observatory where Lynne Jobe, Tom- my Thomason, Pat Driever, Janice Crook, and Ken Richardson, scien- tists, are completing plans for the first trip to far-away Pluto. Bill An- derson, Todd Dixon, Sally Bonham, Judy Dalton, Mike Gets, and Merlene Duckworth are dedicating their lives for the advancement of science by volunteering for the trip, Merlene wanting to be the first E.H.S. band queen to achieve this distinction. Oh! I must hurry. My plane leaves in 10 minutes for Rome. Will write you from there. Sincerely, Ann. Hotel Eden Rome, Italy June 11, 1976 Mr. John Doop 1049 Fifth Avenue New York 1, New York Hi again, John, This tour of mine is taking my breath away. Although the scenery is much different from that of my beloved Enid, you 'd be surprised how many people are the same. VVhen I was looking through the coliseum today, I ran into Jeanne Morris. You 'll never guess in a thou- sand years how she got there. As a. contestant on a T.V. program she stated that her life-long desire was to be a gladiator. By devouring 13 pieces of pic in 15 minutes she won her trip to Rome to realize her am- bition. She told me that back in Enid several '56 graduates were doing well in the business world. Floyd Skarky, H. L. Crites, and Gail Crawford are now employed at the Don-Paul cafe- teria as the head dishwashers. Ray Asfahl, Sam Barnes, Paul Franklin, Bob Gungoll, and Shelby Smith are following up their illustrious high school careers by working for the Do Everything Construction Company as ditch diggers. Also, Jakes new- est brigade of car-hops includes Mari lyn Andruss, Deanna Duliek, Rita Krug, Connie Prickett, and Cathy Stuteville. Some other of our friends have become distinguished in the world of music also. Some of your old music buddies now doing well include Carol Carlb erg, a jazz pianist for the Moose Club, north of town, where Dick Aut- ry is the manager. His rank of chorus girls include Gloria Baltzer, Joan Barnes, Cynthia Grow, Charlsie Gus- tin, Billie Gayle Johnson, Wilma Long, Kay Watson, Naomi Tribble, and Irene Shelman. Sharon Lee, Glor- ia Emmons, and Barbara Hock are the highly talented vocalists of the club. VVhat do you think of that? YVell I must close for now. Be good and I will write more on board the Queen Mary while sailing to Florida. Annie. 1049 Fifth Avenue New York, New York June 25, 1976 Ann Hayes Fountainbleau Hotel Miami, Florida Hi- Sorry I haven 't written sooner, but I have been quite busy at my New York Stock Exchange. Your letters have been extremely interesting, and I am especially hap- py to know that my old school friends are doing so well in their later years. Quite a few of them can be seen on the streets of New York too. Glenn Boyer, Jim Carnell, Jerrold Collier, and Gene Diller have estab- lished their headquarters at the cor- ner of 45th and Broadway, a Broad- way Snack Shack specializing in three decker Broadway Burgers. Selling high grade gas in the down- town district are Jerry Born, Darwin Kennedy, Allen Parker, and Johnny Thomas. Their help-yourself station is in the newest design. An aquacade of the world's best swimmers which is currently appear- ing here, includes some former E.H. S.'ers. They are Joe Waters, Edwin Krause, and Joe Hart doing syn- chronized routines with Marilyn Bell, Teddy Beneditti, and Jane Johnstone. Continued to page 27 17
