l- THE REFLECTOR Joe was gone from home too often, sometimes two days in a row: Joe is in charge of the Illinois division of Hayes Airliner Freight Company. Two of Joe's afblest pilots are Clifford McNeeley and Jesse Carter. C. B. Simmons talked to us on the subject of Sportsmen's Clubs in Southern Indiana and Illinois. C. B. and his wife reside in Evansville and Catbird is a notable sports commentator over the NBC network. One of his aides in the broad- casting station is John B. Borah, who is head electrician in charge of all broadcasting apparatus. John lives in Evansville with his darling little wife. Near the close of the program we were honored by a talk from Robert Dickey, the young ambassador to Argentina. I think Bob is quite qualified, because he fell in love with an Argentina dancer who appeared in our country, searched every cliff and crevice then she flew to her own country and went into hiding. He finally found her and proved to her that his love was not like other American men's, but was true and pure. They were married and Bob was made ambassador to Argentina. Bob started to tell about the conditions of the country, but ended up telling about the beauti- ful Argentina girls. As the hours began to grow late, we noticed Nadine Miller, Mary Montgomery, and Jewell Simpson 'getting their wraps. They are all make- up operators 'at Warner Bros. Studios and have to be at the studio by 6:00. Hard work but good pay, they say. The last attraction of the evening was a vivid account of Hawaii, the forty-ninth state, given to us in three parts by Harry Vaught, Ernest Stanley, and Marcella Jones. H-arry described the conditions :among the natives with whom he was for four years closely associated as a member of the FBI to investigate fifth column activities of the Asiatic Powers. Ernest told us about the educational advances of the Hawaiians whom he educates in gymnastics at the University of Hawaii. Marcella is the wife of the Governor of Hawaii, and devotes some of her time to the education of the older girls in Honolulu. She has taught them to wear corduroy skirts and patent leather shoes. But she spends most of her -time taking care of her children whose names are Hankie and Hankeretta. You can guess where they get their names, since the gover- nor of Hawaii happens to be an oil pumper from Fairfield. Oh yes, we almost forgot to mention that the Hawaiian girls even change their walk to match hers. With the conclusion of Marce1la's account of her activities, we all danced to the tune of Dovnm By The Ohio to end the gayest evening since May 16, 1941, for most of us. We hoped everyone enjoyed it to the utmost and wished them lots of health and happiness in the years to come. If we meet again next year or in the years to come, we hope that we shall have as large an attendance Kas we did this year. We couldn't wish for any more contribution for the entertainment than we got, and we are proud of our classmates. We think they have gone as far in the world of achieve- ment as any other graduating class of any high school. Well, this is the end of our report of our fifteenth reunion, and we wish everyone could have been there. By Marcella Jones 'and Bob Dickey
