Senear Prafi6ecty Date: December 51, 1963 Place: Peanut's Night Club Affair: Class of '53 Reunion Soft music plays; corks pop; waiters dart skillfully, silently among the crowd; there is the soft hum of voices. Well, all the voices are soft but one. Ruth .Holland is expressing herself rather loudly about men and their many faults. Although Ruth is considered an expert on men, she has yet to select one for herself. Suddenly there is silence as two sailors and their wives enter. One couple is Billy and LaVern Shepard. Mrs. Shepard is the former LaVern Barton. The other couple is Edwin and Shirley Dean. Although Edwin left the class in its Junior year to work for Uncle Sam, his wife, the former Shirley Harris, graduated and attended college before getting married. All at once, there are loud shouts accompanied with booms and bangs as Captains Thad White. Mulder Brown, and Vernon Todd make their appearance. During their senior year Thad, Mulder, and Vernon joined the local National Guard unit, and shortly after their graduation, were mobilized and sent to Korea. The next to enter is Gerone Jordan. Gerone is manager of Yate's Turkey Farm, the world's largest. Curtisteen Smith and Russell Potter are the next to enter. Curtisteen and Russell have been going together for 10 years now but everyone believes Russell will soon get up the courage to ask Curtisteen the question. Jack Agerton and Ernest Chester burst in next, feeling good because they left their wives at home. Jack married Laverne Hill and took over his father’s construction business. Ernest married Shirley Hopkins and is operating a prosperous service station and garage. All women grabbed their male companions as Sonya Flirtatious Perkins flashes in, followed by her hen-pecked husband, Billy. Mrs. Perkins, the former Sonya

Fletcher, used her wool-pulling ways, and smoothly captured Billy shortly after graduating, They now have four noisy daughters. James Clark comes in now, and heads for the nearest unattached woman. James is now a radio technician in the Navy. The next entrants to the reunion are Bernice Edwards, Margaret Alday, and Dora Mae Clark. This trio is presently employed by the FBI in Washington and they are busy trying to track a man. As Donald Clark enters, all eyes are focused on his newly-wed wife. Mrs. Clark comes from Georgia and looks very peachy. Donald is a very prosperous tobacco farmer in Rat Creek. Just outside the door, Mrs. Jamie Weeks alights from her 1963 Henry J. Mrs. Weeks is the former Lucile White. Robert Morgan, famous chemist, is the next to make his appearance. Robert is suffering from his last experiment, which exploded and as a result, he is well bandaged. Marguerite Ventry walks hurriedly through the door pulling her fiance. Marguerite is a private secretary to Mr. Will-take-it-all, President of the Last National Bank of Providence. She really has her eye set for him. A loud cheer goes up as Mr. Robert Willis, sponsor of the senior Class of '53, escorts his bride-to-be in. Although Mr. Willis claimed he would always be a bachelor, he really has that love-sick look in his eyes. His fiancee is masked, so that her identity will remain a secret. Last, but not least, to drag in, is Wesley Dean. Wesley is a Naval Aviation Pilot, and has been married for 7 years. Although Wesley was very loud and disturbing in school, he now seems well hen-pecked and meek. Soon the reunion breaks up, Mr. Willis is presented the check for the damages, and the crowd once again goes on its merry way.
