1962 A TELEvlsloN BROADCAST Oh, my goodness, there's DONALD MOHLER, Ervin's 1942 class president. What's he saying-Oh--listen! Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and especially you in Ervin. I am here on my anniversary broadcast as a commentator on E.-R-V-I-N to bring you all the news of the sports world. Instead of my usual broadcast tonight-I have contacted all my 1942 classmates and am going to interview some of them. First-RALPH fbetter known as Jimj KELLY was our star ball player in 1942. Hasn't he gained weight, folks? Jim, what are you doing now? I am retired, Donald, and a married man. Yes, Jim, I noticed two little red-haired girls when I was at your house the other day. You married OPAL STOVER, I presume. Yes, and we have the large white house on the corner of Chestnut and Judson Street in Noble. Thank you, Jimf' ' And here is ANNA LOUISE CRIPE. Isn't she the picture of her mother, folks? Excuse me, I should say Dr. Cripe, for you see, Anna Louise is in general practice in Deer Creek now. How are you Anna Louise? Fine, Donald-I paid 572.16 income tax this year, so I guess you could say I'm doing fine. Ah! here is DAVID ELLERg he wears horn-rimmed spectacles now. W'hat are you doing, Dave? Did you ever get Mary Jane? No, Donald, I am definitely NOT married. I am in charge of Noble's Escort Bureau and living comfortably, thank you. p We'll have to hurry-here's Mrs. MAE FEATHERSTONE Lybrook. How are you, Mae? O. K., Donald, I've just invented a new lipstick which shows up in a blackout. I've been offered two contracts already. Here's success to you, Mae. Hello Phyllis! This is Mrs. PHYLLIS NUTT W'hite. You always did want to be a 'White' man's wife. Didn't you? Don't be silly, Donald, I worked in an oflice for four years after I graduated. My husband is in the photography business, and I am running for president of Nobles Federation of Women's Clubs. Thank you, Phyllis. And here we have GAYLE JOHNSON. Gayle happens to be playing in the stage show at the Merchant Theatre at Noble this week. How's tricks, Johnson? Swell, I've been around the world twice. I like the show business very much. Got my start at Ervin in the Ervin Capers. You know, that spring revue of '42. Yes, I remember very well. Next we have Mrs. MARJORIE ETHERINGTON Hensley. She and Richard were married in June 1942, before he left for the army. How're things, Marjorie? I'm County Girl's 4-H Club Leader this year, Donald, and we have a wonderful group of girls. And now, folks, EUNICE ROBERTSON. How are you? Fine, Donald, I'm off duty just now, I'm a nurse on the surgical staff in the St. Joseph Hospital. Thank you. Well if it isn't JUNIOR BENNETT. What are you doing, Junior? I'm chief mechanics teacher at Allison's Engineering School. Fine. We're glad to hear of your success. Look who just came into the studio, LILLIAN KERKHOFF, who succeeded Mrs. Giles at Ervin in 1952. How are things, Lillian? The Spring Revue of 1962 went off grand this year. We did a new version 05 the 1942 Revue. Mrs. Giles was an honored guest. That's fine, I was there one night, and it reminded me a lot of the '42 show. Here is RITA MAE MYNARSKI. She is now in the Salvation Army. Where do you have your copper kettle this year, Rita Mae? I'm still on Main Street in front of the dime stores. I'm hoping to be changed next year. RUBY BYERS is in the hospital now recovering from a motorcycle accident. She has a fast driving husband I guess. Yes, folks, I have letters from BETTE MARTIN and LEONA PRIFOGLE this week. They are living in San Francisco while their husbands are somewhere on the high seas. Both traitors to the armyg they married navy men. Last to appear is CHARLOTTE LOUTHAIN who has Miss Henry's job at Ervin. How are you, Charlotte? Fine, Donald, my students are going to the Commercial Contest this year on bicycles. That's all this evening, folks. I want to congratulate the 1962 graduates of Ervin who have their Commencement tonight. Goodnight all. u u n u n

Mrs. Hollings- worth was again appointed their sponsor. The class was very successful in their candy and ice cream sales. On Dec. 9, they sponsored a trip for the Juniors and Seniors to see Sonja Henie at the Indianapolis Colesium. The trip was enjoyed by all and was something to be re- membered. On April 17, they presented their class play Hot Water. Each member had a part and after borrowing from the Sophomore class, they had an excellent cast. This , was the finale of a busy year for the juniors. PHYLLIS AMOS MAX BRUBARER mpaidm- PATRICIA FLORA ROBERT MERRELL LLOYD STOVER JOAN WELSH NINA RINEHART Q-R IRENE WERTZ W I MARY JANE YATER
