We are on our way to attend the decennial reunion of the class of '51. As we enter the suburbs of Fair Oaks, we go through a pretty little town called Rensselaer. We notice from a sign at the city limits that the population of Fair Oaks is now 2,000,000. Further dom town we can see the 7,000 - foot tower of the home of PASS! Pasteurized— Pickles, whose motto is The Personalized Pickle, Pickled for your Pickle Pleasure. Pass! immense fortune is due to his investment in the laboratory experiment of FRANCIS ALBRIGHT, a former classmate, who synthesized the pickle. By combining a few chemicals with sand burrs, oak leaves, and drift sand, which seemed plentiful in the community, a perfect pickle can now be factory made at the rate of 10,000 barrels per hour. A friendly policeman directed us to the Fair Oaks High School ‘As we are about to enter the beautiful building, we see ROBERTTAYLOR, who seems very defected because he has just wrecked his own newly invented Airacar. It seems he had put his life's saving in this vent- ure and lost everything while trying to land he Airacar on the roof of PASS! Pickle Parlor. He was waiting on the outside of the School for some one to loan him enough money to get into the banquet. By following signs in the building, we finally came to the gym- nasium which is 300 feet wide and.800 feet long. At the door we are greeted by the hostess for the banquet,Mrs. Frank Schima, Jr., formerly MAXINE CHILDERS who is resplendent in a strapless evening gown of gold cloth covered with diamonds. While escorting us to our seats, she said her husband is now the Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds at Fair Oaks High School. At one end of the huge gymnasium, we see TOMMY GILBERT and his 200-piece all-girl orchestra who are furnishing the music for the banquet. At the first opportunity we talked to him and he said that “our building had been torn down and a new building designed and built by the SAYERS CONSTRUCTION COMPANY. It seems that all that remains of the old school house may be found in the school museum--the furnace and the two gymnasium heaters. He also told us that the shop is now 8 times its original size and contains a secret machine newly invented by BOB SMITH. This machine removes all the briars from PASS! pickles and converts them to fuzz to cover skinless peaches. Soon an empty plate and a glass of water is placed ‘before use WILLIE YENNA enters with a basket of tiny green pills and instructs the waiters to place one pill on each plate. Then he told us to place three drops of water on each pill. As if from a fairy book, a full meal appears before our very eyes including steac, salad, ice cream, and cake. Near the speaker's table we can see a chair which issmarked reserved , We are told it is for JOHN FAUCHER who has now been asleep for eight years without food or water-the longest since RIP VAN WINKLE. At the speaker's table there sits the master of ceremonies with a beaut iful black eye. It is TONY FAUCHER who has had one of his many argument with his wife and evidentally lost. Seated across the table f MR. RAY HAMMOND and wife, the former MARY SUITHs Conte on psge obs Juniors As Juniors we have fifteen members enrolled in our class this year.

She says it is not unusual to see a line of people six block long to watch the little angels, each enclosed in his own glass case to insure his being comfortable and free from contamination. As we journey about the city we can see the neon lights of Sparkie's airacar garage. The proprietor is Harold Parks who seems down hearted because he started the garage to service Taylor's airacar which has now been wrecked and lost for all time. As we were leaving town we happened on Violet DeYoung who seems very happy because 'de' Kock doesn't have to leave ' de! town to see De! Young because 'de Motte is now 'de!' suburb of Fair Oaks. She also tells us that Barbara Smith is now financially independent due to her marvelous success in operating an Advice to the Love Lorn Clinic. Patricia Harsha now supervises tne Clinic and dictates all letters in reply to request for advice from male clients. While Driving back to the airport for a trip to the ranch, we were happy indeed to have seen our fellow classmates and hope that they pros- per greatly in. the next ten years.
