home contained much of the doings of the class of 45 . We read that Miss Vashti Mellot had accepted the position as commercial teacher at the Everett High School. William Bucher was chemical engineer for Westing- house. Doris Gordon has been put in charge of the nursing staff at the Everett Hospital with Irene Arvin and Sara Goodrich as her assistants. Louise Hershberger had been appointed librarian of the town library. In the personal column we read that Mr. and Mrs. William Felton of Baltimore were week-end visitors at Breezewood. Mrs. William Felton will be remem- bered as the former Arlene Jay. Miss Phyllis Smith has returned from vacation to her position as clerk in the American Store. Mr. Henry Rinard, F. B. I. Investigator, has spent a few days with his parents. We also noticed the advertisement of a new dress shop opened by Louise Shipley and Marie Nelson. Later strolling down the avenue we noticed the bright lights of a theatre flashing the name of Carolyn Mobus. Just beyond the theatre we came to a book shop owned by John McFarland. We then met Shirley Weicht and Martine Felton and learned that Shirley was private secretary to Curtis Rohm, President of the United States, and that Martine Felton was nurse for the President's family. From them we also learned that Victor Barton was President of Yale University, and that Clara Miller was at the present time in Switzerland. Finding ourselves hungry we selected a modern-looking restaurant which, to our astonishment, was owned by Robert Latta. Robert Troutman was chief cook and bottle washer , Betty Long was head waitress, and Ruth Hershberger was dietician. Across from us we noticed Mr. and Mrs. Red Barndollar. Mrs. Barndollar was formerly Evelyn Fitzwater. Talking with them we found that Miss Arlene Kegg was running the Love Lorn Column in the Philadelphia Inquirer. Across the street we discovered Harold Weicht in charge of his own travel bureau. There We bumped into Marjorie Foor and Velma Crawford, and learned that they were planning a trip to Hawaii. Further down the street we discovered John Morgret, a gunner on a P. T. Boat, home on leave. He told us he was on his way to visit Ray Sollenberger, owner of the Sollenberger Garage, in Philadelphia. After leaving John we noticed a nursery and found it to be directed by Louise Smith and Freda King. From them we learned that Betty Cooper was first alto on the Hour of Charm program. We also learned from them that Betty Baker was model for Pond's complexion cream and that Mildred Diehl was athletic instruc- tor at the Altoona High School. On our way back to the hotel we saw Marian Dodson on the street. She told us that Suzanne Rearick was at present Dean of Women at Breneau College for Women, and that she was Miss Rearick's private secretary. From her we also learned that Betty Karns Was now the school nurse in the Everett Schools. John Barkman is also teaching mathematics there. We also learned that Earl Calhoun was proprietor of the Everett Bottling Works. Quite satisfied with our report on the Class of 45 we were ready to enjoy a good night's rest. Page twenty one

We spent the forenoon conversing with Loren Miller who was returning from a trip to Mexico. At noon we were served lunch by Betty Means, air- line hostess. The afternoon was spent in scanning the newspaper where to our amazement we discovered many familiar names of the class of 45 . This is what we found: Miss Mary Lou Burket, world famous violinist, will make her first ap- pearance in the United States following her world-wide tour. Out of This World , a new shop in home decoration, was opened on Fifth Avenue by Madame Rocksbilt, the former Shirley Avey. Miss Peggy England, Daredevil of the Autos, gave a thrilling perform- ance to millions at Madison Square Garden, Thursday evening. Guest soloist at the opening of Carmen at the Metropolitan will be Miss Genevieve May, the famous vocalist. Dr. Paul T. Myers, formerly of the Mayo Clinic, has opened a new labo- ratory in Boston for research in cancer. The Pulitzer Prize for 1960 was captured by Prof. John Bertram for his brilliant novel, Brains to Lend. Finding nothing more of interest to us, we laid the newspaper aside and decided to refresh ourselves with a glass of milk which we discovered came from the Robert Felton Dairy Farms. While sipping the drink, we gazed below and saw the poultry farm of Marvin Clark and waved at Franklin Hershberger as he cultivated his fine-looking crop of corn. To our amaze- ment we learned from a fellow passenger that Raymond Gordon and Lin- wood Mearkle also owned many of the farms over which we were passing. During a three hour stop in New Orleans we alighted from the plane only to find our hostess for the remainder of the trip to be Ruth Clark, our pilot, Coy Pee, and our co-pilot, Donald Sponsler. Three hours passed quickly for we visited with old friends, Marjorie Eshleman, a school teacher in New Orleans, and Doris and Shirley Harclerode, busy operators of the Harclerode Beauty Shop. We also recognized William England as propri- etor of the largest and newest drug store in New Orleans. Sara Jane Hersh- berger was his most efficient secretary. We also met John Caro, a very successful business man. Boarding our plane once more, we were delighted to find Captain Harry Calhoun of the Marines and Admiral Richard Felton of the Navy as fellow passengers. We learned from Richard that he had just visited with Betty Pepple, an expert X-ray technician and had passed Gene Vance, now a naval officer, on his Way to the airport. At last we reached our destination, Washington, D. C., where to our pleasure we met five stenographers from the Pentagon Building-Lela Price, Betty Redinger, Ethel Mellot, Mary Lou Imes, and Jean Winck who were boarding the plane for a vacation in sunny California. We caught a bus and found our driver to be Bryce Means. As we rode to our hotel, we noticed the Posy Store run by Frances Greenawalt and Allegra Furry and an electric shop owned by Richard Van Horn. At our hotel we found waiting for us a copy of the Everett Press sent to us by the editor, Pauline Snyder. Again the newspaper was our source of delight, and the news from back Page twenty
