Annette Waller receives Nancy Hartung's ability to chat constant- Ly. The swivel hips of Raelene Herlihey are left to Joyce Stevens. Mary Newhall bequeaths her extreme loquaciousness to Jean Jaff- arian. All of Diane Levesque's car troubles go to any underclassmen who drive to school. Elaine Frechette gives the back seat of the bus to Marcia Tho- mas. For Marie Frasca's collection, Debbie Mudge donates her late slips. Estelle Levesque leaves to Norma Spring her blushing bashful- ness, and hopes she will use it in the right places. Barbara Sanborn and Emily Stiles have collectively left their corny jokes, beautiful smiles, and ability to get along with the teachers to Janet Paradise.

GIRLS’ CLASS PROPHECY It certainly doesn't seem possible that twenty years had passed since I graduated from Essex County Homemaking School. Hereit was, June, 1981 and I had been cho- sen along with one other person to take a survey of the dietary work of the various hospitals in this area. This survey was to include the Schools specializing in home economics. When chosen for the project, I naturally hoped it would mean visiting my Alma Mater. It had been years since I had been able to goto Hathorne, due to my heavy duties as head dietician at the local hospital in Newburyport. When the day arrived for me to meet my co-worker, I was pleasantly surprised to see Mrs. Peter Farnum whom limmediately recognizedas one of my fellow class- mates, Barbara Sanborn. Of course we began toreminisce about our school days and to talk about our lives since we left each other on graduati on day. Barbara has suc- cessfully combined marriage anda career. She manages the dietary work at the Lawrence General Hospital as well as a beautiful home in Middleton. On our way to our first stop, which was the Bon Secour Hospital, we had a mar- velous opportunity todiscuss some of our other classmates. To my surprise, I learned that Emily Stiles is the candidate for congress from. Essex County. Betty Janvrin, who is also active in politics, has been installed as National President of the Womans Club. During our chat, I realized that Barbara has done a better job of keeping in touch with our classmates than I. She told me that Betty Walters, better known as Little Betty'' was an understudy for Marilyn Monroe ina Hollywood production. Speaking of Hollywood, that reminds me of Arlene King, who is John Robert Powers most popular model. I saw her picture in the paper just the other day. Nancy Har- tung is, of course, America's leading 'Lonely Hearts ' columnist. Our classmate, Shirley Chatwood is an author of mystery stories of the ''Ellery Queen type. At the hospital we were taken on a tour of the facilities. Going through the out- patient Department, Irecognized the lady being escorted out, Estelle Levesque. I went over and shook her hand and spoke to her, but she didn't answer me. The nurse informed me that she hada serious case of laryngitis. Her profession was speaking - Public Speaking. She always was a great talker. After the hospital tour, we went downtown for lunch. Before going into the res- taurant we ran into Elaine Frechette who was shopping for material. Elaine has avery successful custom dressmaking business in Salem. We invited her to join us for lunch but she declined due to another appointment she had. However, we did have an opportunity to chat for afew minutes. She said Mary Newhall and De- borah Mudge own their own beauty and reducing salon. The salon was just around the corner, SO we went over and visited them. We were rather amused to find out that Cynthia Rossa well-known comedian at a near by play-house. Carol Rand is happy and contented working as a hairdresser for her mortician husband. Carolyn Tillson is ahousewife with four children living in Florida where her husband is in charge of an alligator farm. Debbie also told us, that she often sees Diane Le- vesque and Dene Creighton at meetings for cosmetologists. They own the Diane and Dene ' Shoppe on Newbury Street in Boston. Ralene Herelihy has become a rich and successful business woman since she developed a new hair tint. It has made Ralene well over a million dollars. In notime at all it was three o'clock and we had to leave. We drove to Bar- bara's home where we greeted her five active and healthy children. While driving back to Newburyport, I thought of my eventful day. How won- derful it was to see so marily of my classmates andto hear of the others. How- ever; I was glad to be home with my husband, Bill McPhee and three children. Elizabeth Morris 30
