X532 SENIOR PROPI-IECY Here comes the Denver Limited, shouted the guard as an immense silver colored zeppelin came into view. In a few seconds the magnificient ship glided into the landing station. As the gang plank dropped into place I walked up into the liner through the door marked Entrance Just as I was entering the library I met a distinguished looking man dressed in a natty uniform. . Much to my surprise and delight I recognized Lester Winter. He immediately took me to his office where We talked over old times when we were enrolled in G. H. S. He pushed a button on the side of his desk and almost instantly a door opened and Oleta Silver entered the room. She was private secretary to the Captain. When we arrived in Denver I persuaded them to come to my hotel. While we were talking a bell boy announced that the hortel manager wish- ed to see us. I had no idea of the surprise in store for us as we were ushered into the lavishly decorated drawing room of the manager's suite. Norma Spoon, we exclaimed as a charming young lady advanced to meet us. She told us that she was the manager of the hotel and hadichanced to see us as we were passing through the lobby. Since this was Thursday we had the rest of the week off, thanks to the law establishing the four day laboring week which had been put through Congress by Senator Edward Allison and Representative Richard Pridham. We decided to go to the opening of the magnificient new Granada Theater. As we entered the rotunda an usher came forward. Who should it be but Mildred Jackson. She gave us the best seats in the house and said she would see us later. Much to our surprise we recognized our old classmate, Pat McEwen as the comedian of the play. He was certainly a scream, and it brought to my mind many of the happenings back in G. H. S. After the show, which we all enjoyed, we again met Mildred in company with two chorus girls. They looked strangely familiar, and no wonder for they were none other than Myriam Eddie and Fay Gosney. They had only enough time to say Hello since they had to get ready for i. X ' x 2 ' f . ., l .

Bratton. He said he was running a machine which scraped up the gum from the floor. He also told me that since the recent discoveries in the realm of science made by Robert Ludlum it was now possible to make gum by a new process for one cent a package, hence the need for this gum scraper. I said good-bye to Howard and left the depot. Upon reaching the street I called a taxi. I entered the car and as I glanced at the driver, who should I see but Warren Watson. I told him of my intentions to try to find all the members of the Class of '30, He was very enthusiastic over this and offered to help. He said he knew many of them were in Chicago. We started down Wabash Avenue when suddenly a motorcycle cop drew up alongside us. We stopped, and I stepped out wondering why we had been held up. The officer walked over to us and started to hand Warren a ticket for speeding when I exclaimed, Augie l For sure enough it was August Miller. About that time a siren began to blow, and August dashed of to clear the street. As we again entered the taxi, Warren said, Well, I guess August has at last attained his ambition for speed. After driving around for some time we pulled into a gas station to renew our supply of gas. The man who filled our tank I recognized as Guy Shellady. While we were talking to him he informed us that we had a flat tire so we drove into the repair shop. While the tire was being repaired I walked around through the gar- age. I noticed a man directing some work on a large motor. Thinking his voice sounded familiar I came closer. Just then he turned around, and I recognized my old classmate, Chester Dugger. He told me he was the shop foreman and consequently very busy, so that he was unable to talk long with me. By that time the tire was repaired and just as we started to drive out, a nifty low hung and powerful roadster came to a stop in front of us. I recognized the lady at the wheel as Jean Coffield. Chicago's leading society matron, explained Warren as we drove tv ll l. rl if if l KN f L . ,Q xs ,, sq, P . !, f - .N . A o away.
