As I passed Romeo's Restaurant in New York City, I saw Sylvia Bush cooking spaghetti. The Italian food she consumed on the trip must have appealed to her. She is still limping from her ten-year old blisters. As I approached the elevator in the Hotel President, I noticed Dave Doiron sitting in the corner of the elevator. He seemed to have given up trying to get out of the infernal machine. As I 1'ialked into the lobby of the Hotel President in New York City, I saw Fred Hitchman at the souvenior stand still arguing with Irene because she wouldn't change his dollar bill. I went to the Sixty-four Thousand Dollar Television show and sitting in the front row was none other than Ernest Walrath. He is still drooling over Barbara Britton and beside him sat Gerald Rose drooling over the $61|,000, Bill Carpenter is still at Radio City Music Hall watching the Rockettes and slowly making his way down to the front seat. As I got aboard the Staten Island ferry, I noticed that Bill Baker was now the captain. Down on Fifth Avenue I saw a new house. I guess Dick Fletcher and Gerry Merithew liked New York better than I thought they did. As I came out of the elevator In the President Hotel, I saw Miss Wake standing outside her door. I guess she must have locked herself out again. Mr. Cline Is now head, -waiter in Jack Dempsey's exclusive restaurant. He is realTy working his way up. In his spare time, he exercises the horses for a riding academy in Central Park. It Is now 1968 and I, Mrs. Eleanor Bishop Brotherton, have taken my husband and four children on a tour of Washington and New York. I did not go with my class members because I was too busy making my wedding dress. When we get back in DeKalb, my private maid, Shirley Woodrow, will take care of the children. Fra.nkly, they are driving me daffy.
