Class Prophecy Krunchy Krackles box tops and learn to dance like Miss Antenen herself. Your announcer is Howard Brown. just as the theme song for the story of the Life of Dr. Goodness, starring Bill Vidourek and Thelma Hardin, drifts through the room, a loud noise in the outer lobby interrupts the peace we had found, and who should appear, lugging a big pack of photo' graphy paraphernalia on his back but Merrill Swain, followed by Alfred Zugehoer, carrying a case which he briefly explains as 'kfilmsf' They are just struggling back from a fire on the former North Third Street, now known as Riverside Drive. The new luxurious home of Mr. and Mrs. John Weaver fshe's the former Betty Webbj caught fire while they were enjoying an evening of fun at the home of Mr. and Mrs, Allen Rutherford. They called up the VailfWatkins Insurance Company, and Russell and Dick sent out three representatives, namely Ralph Felger, Bill Frisbie, and Herbert Cox. A pretty nurse, Miss Dorothy Gardner, was called in to take care of the little girl, since the servants left as quickly as the smoke. Except for that, the fire chief, Robert Day, says the damage is small. When this commotion subsides, in struggles Gerhart Ringel gazing fondly at his little camera-the same one he carried into the Review room so often. He speaks to us with his usual friendliness and tells us that the heat from the fire ruined his camera. Now he says he'll have to take up something else-maybe he'll go into the Bruck and Bruns roofing businex with Elman and Carl. Then again he says, grinning, he might locate jackie Lowcnstein Cshe has an artists studio somewherej to see if she needs a model, Everyone of our dearly beloved, if a bit bewilderf ing, classmates has admitted that he would love to visit Hamilton High School again, so we all start out fas soon as the paper has gone to pressj down High Street, which is lined with awefinspiring skyscrapers, and surg- ing with the new generation. Aren't we decrepit? On one street corner, a soap box orator is holding a session. It's dear old George Paxton. In the milling crowd we see many familiar faces from the class of 1940-Marcella Taylor, Jim Frybarger, Leona May Rice, George Procter, Leila Logsdon, and Ella Post. Many fall in, and we're off again. But what a blow awaits us! The old, unpretentious buildings that surrounded the Alma Mater are gone and large stone and steel business buildings loom around us. We can't be in the right place! A new building has been erected in its place-what's that plate there by the door? 'This is the site of the original Hamilton High School, from which more famous people were gradu' ated than from any other school in the history of Ohio. Full records are within. When we asked the doorman, resplendent in the gold braids and buttons, where Hamilton High School can be found, he hastens to tell us that he is one of those graduates uwho ain't famous and that Hamilf ton High School II is situated on 48th Street. Now, citizens of Hamilton High School I, prepare for a shock-the important looking building that has supplanted our school is a museum. Yessir! The Municipal Museum of Hamilton. Who knows-may' be your name is on one of the records or your picture in the hall? We might as well look the place over, we think, so we wander in. Down the middle of the blackftiled corridor runs a white line. Hailing the custodian, james Boykin, we ask what it's for-to show which side one should stay on? Ladies and gentlemen, within those white lines stood the greatest institution of learning ever built- Hamilton High School. He joins in as we cheer .
