CLASS PROPI-IECY Ritz Carlton Hotel New York City Iune 10, l950. Dear Diary: What a hectic day this has been! On this twelfth anniversary of my com- mencement at Hellertown High School, I landed in New York City, fresh from stylish Paris. On Fifth Avenue I met my old principal, Mr. Illick, whom I hadn't seen for six years. We spent a delightful evening reviewing old times, and I found out very much news about all my old friends at dear old Hellertown High. During the evening we visited the Metropolitan Opera House where Bizet's Carmen was being enacted. Imagine my surprise when Evelyn Mease stepped on the stage to sing the title role: Iohn Weber supported her lead by singing the role of luan. Between the acts, Louisa Seifert, concert accordianist, favored the audience with several selections. After the opera we went danc- ing. Upon entering the Hollywood Restaurant, we immediately saw Harold Eckert leading a marvelous dance orchestra. Louis Vargo was in charge of the floor show in which Helen Bednar and Andrew Hanzlik were adagio dancers. And who do you suppose was acting as bartender? None other than Norman Boehm. I was much surprised to learn that in the new High School Minnie Moran had taken Mr. Illick's place as principal. Willi Maintz is teaching German and Geometry. Verna Eisenhart has charge of the French and English depart- ments. Marie Wolst is teaching Problems of Democracy. And above all, I learned that Mary Kovach had been elected to the position of County Super- visor of Public Schools. Marguerite Reiss and Irene Horvath are teaching elementary grades in the Reinhard Building. In the large fifteen story office building where 'I'ed's formerly stood, Emma Reilly, Grace Shimer, and Evelyn Werkheiser are employed as secre- taries. One entire floor of this building is occupied by Walter Pastemak, Con- tractor. Anita Potts is serving as his private secretary, with Anna Martin as her assistant. Merrit Hunt and Dorothy Fluck are employed as Mr. Pasternak's bookkeepers. Paul Chiz has become one of the country's best known criminal lawyers. Isabel Boehm Zimpher is employed as his secretary. In the large hotel that has been erected, Charles Zimpfer is employed as manager with Annie Catherine Seifert as his stenographer. The Chef, Ben- jamin Muschlitz has Quintus Strauss as his assistant. Mary Skibo, the chief waitress is assisted by Betty Fritchman and Beatrice Bemhardt. Helen Bosich and Rose Momich are in charge of the hotel's beauty-shoppe. In the South-Mountain-View Hospital, Bernard Strawn is an able surgeon. Velma Doncsez and Dorothy Fulton are registered nurses. Lillian Beil, head nurse, has recently published a very popular book of poems called Memories of H. H. S. In the Conservatory of Music, Helen Pastir and Dorothy Snyder are teach- ing piano, and Iohn Stofan is teaching violin. The damming of the Saucon Creek, to furnish Hellertown with electricity, was in charge of Edward Godycki and Ira Koplin, Civil Engineers. The labor- ers who helped to build the dam included Austin Eisenhart and Charles Fulmer. Thirty-nine
