Elmer and Manson are portly middle- aged men— well groomed; well-kept; and at the present reclining at ease; about to hobnob. It’s the Year 1960. You’re given this much, now follow it through.

You know, Elmer, we ought to take a vacation. Here we are working ourselves into an early grave and we never take a rest What if we are co-presidents of the Naugle and Radloff Banana Oil Refineries, that constitutes success, not longer life. Elmer: Guess you’re right, old boy. Let’s take a car and start out to see all of our old chums from Tech. Drop in on each one and surprise them. Eh? Fourteen

Manson: Now that’s an idea! Of course, we’ve kept pretty close tab on each one, but it’ll bs a splendid chance for a rest. Who’ll we see first? Elmer: Wait till I take a look at my list here. (Reaches in desk and pulls out paper) I’ve always kept an account of each one. Let’s see how many we can remember. Manson: Well, there’s MANFORD WORLEY, He’s the best monkey trainer Ringling Bros, ever had. His circus is in New York now, isn’t it? A Day at the circur will give us a good start— make us young again you know. Elmer: Yes, and JAMES MILLER is known as a daredevil who will under-take anything. He’s in New York now painting the roof of the new 300 story building. Manson: EDITH CAMPBELL married JOHN BALKO. He is a great soap manufacturer in Germany. We’ll have to use an airplane to get to them. Elmer: No, they are in Florda on a vacation now. ARNOLD DEMIK and JOHN HINKLE have become famous due to their invention of a combined golf and moth ball. They are in Flordia too, so we’ll see them altogether. Manson: ELEANOR UZDANOVICZ is head nurse at the Charleston State Cat and Dog Hospital. We must see her. Elmer: WALTER SCHMAL is over in Sweden trying to further Einstein’s Theories. Manson: Every one knows that the success of the great Yale checker teams is largely due to the crafty coaching of JOHN GALAMBOS. Elmer: That boy was clever in his day. ANNA SLANAC! Seems to me she’s conducting experiments to find whether radishes grown upside down have a better flavor than upright ones. Personally I prefer the up- right. Manson: JOHN VANDERTUCK is gaining fame as a designer of doll’s clothes. Elmer: DOROTHY DOLSKI conducts a boarding house for lonely teachers in New York. Great Place, I hear. Wonder if any of Tech’s teachers are there. nice, didn’t it? Elmer: It certainly did. ANNABELLE MUNSTER and VIRGINIA WARD are conducting a chain of Beauty Shops in New York, they say their marcels are wonderful. Remember how we used to kid John Galambos about hi s natural wave. Manson: You know I never did really get the straight of that. GRACE ELKINS and ELIZABETH CHAR- TOS are taking a rest after exerting themselves to get the Thirteen-Months-To-A-Year-Act pas- sed. They are at Los Angeles now. Elmer: Say, I didn’t tell you I saw RALPH HUTCHINSON the other night at my favorite night club. He was doing a lightning tap dance. Increasing age hasn’t bothered him. Manson: I saw ELEANOR SCHAUER and ALMA MIDGET at the Palace the other night. They were playing saxaphones in a woman’s band. Elmer: But speaking of music, let’s go to Cedar Rapids, CHUCK LABARRE gives instructions on wind instruments in his own studio there. Manson: Fine! I always knew he’d be a successful musician. CLARENCE LARSON is knowi» as the world’s greatest barber, isn’t he? Elmer; Uh-huh! He is in Pittsburgh now. HELEN JABAAY is matron at an orphanage in Nebraska. We mustn’t miss her— wonder if she still plays her cornet. Manson: By the way we haven’t heard of DALE AMAMS for a long time, what is he doing? Elmer: He’s scouring the country looking for bigger and better signs to paint. I though he wanted to be a draftsman, but wise people change their minds, I guess. Manson: ROBERT BEATTIE is still in Hammond as its best detective. Elmer: WALTER GRACZYK and EARNEST HARRISON are famous glass blowers of Charleston. I never thought they could do any- thing like that. Elmer: Well, that’s seventy-six. There’s one more (looks at list) EDWARD DIPPLE where is he? Manson: He’s sailing the briny seas — happy as only a sailor can be. Elmer: Well,, that’s all. Let’s get the details arranged. Come on. (Standing up.) Boy what a trip we’ll have. Manson: That’s enough out of you, (Laughs) proceed. Let’s see, STEVE BARON just finished a quite novel Manson: And how! Let’s get going— invention— an ultraviolet ray hair This will be a long round and we curler. His hair always did look mustn’t neglect our work too long. Fifteen
