June 1, 1937 THE BEACON Page 17 Hill, Gloria, Staley and yelmg Weilmanl We laughed and talked awhile and I remarked that we had never seen such jovial girls.Sud- denly we heard some shouting and decided to investigate and who do you think was shouting?It was Deb Jamison standing on a soap box yelling for Fascism. He was sur rounded by fellow believers who included Dick Ridlen,Lester Oppen lander,Edward Rehling,Paul Kanagy and Dick Brouwer.We listened to the effective speech for awhile and then hastened on,for tomorrow we were going to Africa,home of the mosquitoes. Speaking of mos- quitoes, the first thing we saw was the sign UJane Yateg and Reba GcpQock's Incorporated Mosquitoe- Netting Company.n Next door was the one and only skyscraper build er in Africa, Edmund Baurer with Richard Nahrwald and Bill Siebold as his helpers. Naturally,we went in and talked to them awhile about the good old days. But our time was growing short so we hur- ried on to a river by which stood Charles Feistkorn and Bob Hines talking with pebbles in their mouths. When we asked what they were doing they said they wanted to be a second Demosthenes who put pebbles in his mouth and went down to the seaside and practiced speaking. As we didn't want to interrupt them, we walked on,and soon came upon this sign, hScholle and Stolte. Dentist and'?aTber work done eheap.UIt turned nut to be David Stolte and Vilbar Scholls! After these staTflLQfTEEEEver ies we boarded a train for Ethi- opia, only to disecver on arriv-- ing in Addis Abba that Florella Shimer,Betty Biregy and getty Bum gartner were running a first aid station for the Ethiopian's who Cthey were slightly were injured. late,only 10 years.DOur attention was attracted suddenly by the steady beating of tom toms and down the street came the Barnum- and Bailay circus. The elephants ,..- ,,............. came first with bareback riders, who turned out to be Wilma Ramel, Miriam Rabel, Elaine Jackson, Eva Jean Wylie, Helen Squires, and Maurine Leas.As they passed three bare back riders came galloping down the street and as they rode by I read on the sign,U Maxine Casej Joyce Cleaver,and Gwendolyn Kelly, world's greatest bare back riders.U Then our attention was taken up by some clowns who came jumping and running down the street and who should they be but those clowns of Harrison Hill Daily Bausser and James'Morrison. Then came the dog trainers,E1leen Goddard, Dorothy Allen and Aline Brockman,followed by the trapeze, wonders Wanda Bowman, Harriet Greer,Barba5a and Margaret Brower After the circus was over and we had watched our old schoolmates perform we went to our hotels and proceeded to pack for our trip home. We all agreed that it was a wonderful trip and we were sorry it was over. The lights suddenly flooded the room and we stared at each other in amazement. UWhy,Hwc ejae ulated, Wwe have seen each one of our 8A classmates as they will appear 25 years henee.n After re- covering cur voices we thanked and paid the fortune teller and left the house talking over our adventures excitedly. The next morning when we told our schoolmates about it they wouldn't believe us, but we hope you have pictured in your imagina tion our travels as we experien- Qed them- . T .

Page is THE BEACON , June 1, 19157 ediately noticed it was WilmaLage man, the Jeanette Mac Donald o 1950. After exchanging greetings we travelled on till we saw a large pond with a little island in the middle and guess who should be marooned on the island, but Dick Green and Ivan Truman. So into a row boat we bounced,to rescue the poor boys. After taking them to their homes or should we say villa, no, that's Spanish-Oh,well who cares? Everybody agreed unani mously to go to the opera as it was something different. We walk- quiet ed in in our best dress and ly took our seats. Martha Jane Krauskopf and Bob Robinson were singing the leads and the chorus included Frank Du Waldt, Karl- Eberly, Vincent Minger, Russel Krauhs, LeRoy Ehrman,and Wallace Richter, Erleen Lee, Betty James Betty Fremion, Mary Bowlby, Mary Demetre, and Patsy Seibel. After Hearing the opera we de- cided not to waste any time so we went to China. Whewww! how dif- ferent it was from the other coun tries. The first thing that met ur were four rickshaw boys run- ning up to us. nWhy, they aren't boys, they're girls,W said 'Bob Young excitedly. We blinked our eyes. It was,no doubt, Alice Sun ier, Mary Scheuer,Elinor Alvather and Virginia Lee.So in we climbed and rested our weary bones, and proceeded to see the wilds of Hong Kong. In and out of crowds re rode until we came upon our classmate of 1957, Betty Koehler, coming out of a sweatshop. Evi- dently she didn't see us so we hurried on.Then who should we com upon but Delores Daniels and Mar- tha Jean Smith fyou remember, the hot spots of Harrison Hill in 573 All decked up in prospectors out- fits in the middle of Hong Kong's busy streets. Tsh! Tsh! They were so engrossed in their work that they didn't recognize us until we spoke to them. We chatted awhile and they said we hadn't really seen China until we had investi- gated all the little provinces of China. We assured them that we would do as they advised. They told us some of the choice gossip One of the most interesting bits was that Betty Helen Harrison was planning to swim backwards across the English Ghannel!!!! After that we thought we'd bet ter go. Into what we called the wilds of China, we ventured. The first night we stayed at a quaint Chinese tourist ledge. As we ap- proached the door a young farmer came up on the porch to greet us. He stood still. We did we. The young farmer was Dick McKay. He and we shed our coats. we were served by his who amazingly turned Barbara Hughes. In the led us in At dinner housewife out to be living room was a queer organ. We were informed that only one per- son could play it. The tinkling of the organ in- terrupted cur dreams the next morning and none other than Elaine Hirschy was the talented player. We left in the afternoon about 4:50. We had traveled about two miles when we noticed two young women hitch hiking in our di- rection. When we stopped to look our curiousity was more than re- warded becausc the young ladies were Sally Slater and 'Maxine Molin. After breakfast which consist ed of rice, we traveled on. We heard some shooting,and guess who it was.Jack Cranfill,Clarence Ere man, and Robert Kite were having a Chinese feud. We thought we'd better stay clear of that so on we travelled and traveled until we thought we had seen enough of China. Thenwe went to Russia and as we rode in- to Moscow some pleasant ladies were dancing. As they danced up to us they started laughing. We didn't knowg'rhy but we were soon to find out for they were Maxine Relue,Florence Stauffer, Virginia
