THE LANTERN 61 4B Qroplzecy Scene: Office of the New York Times, at the desk of the city-editor. Characters: C. O. VVilcox, city-editor, Selma Malkus, Star reporter, and Harry Salk, famous lst baseman of the New York Giants. Time : 1946. C. O.-How peculiar it seems, Harry, that nearly all of the copy I have read to-day deals with our old classmates from Hibbard's February Class of '27, Here is an article about Archie Molay's famous new radio orchestra. Williani Sweeney, Alexander Slive Nathan Zlotnikof, and Henry Newman also play in it. Harry-Speaking of our old Hibbard classmates reminds me of a letter I just received from Lester Stone, the real estate magnate, the is'in Mexico nowj 5 he says that Inez Ader is down there doing social service work. Minnie Greenspahn, the mystery novelist, is also down there getting local color for her new book, The Trail of Rouge. C. O.-Well, here comes our star reporter, Harry, you remember herg per- haps she can give us some news of her classmates. Selma-Yes, I can. I just came back from court and there Libby Gordon, the girl who sang at all our class affairs, was trying a case between Sadie Vtfolan- sky and Leo Kriloff. Sadie is suing Leo for damages caused by an airplane collision. You know she is the dare-devil woman pilot. Evelyn Anderson is the court stenographer. Harry-By the way, have you heard that Hess Rubin, Aaron Miska, and Al Bliss are trying out for the Cubs? They just left for Catalina on the California Ltd. Selma-Yes, and a few months ago that railroad line was bought by Charles Adler, the renowned corporation lawyer. C. O.-And did you hear that Rosetta McCarthy has turned out to be the greatest detective in the States? You know she found the man who robbed the guests at Ethel Shaffer's house party. Sylvia Gunansky, President of the Chicago Musical College, Lillian Stein and Henry Bode, mayor elect of Cleve- land were also there. Henry surely has risen rapidly in the political world. Selma-And Eleanor Ritcher is dancing at the White House, this week. Ruth Fleishman is also there lecturing on The Solitarity of Our International Relations. Saul Bloomfield is running for Vice-President. I do hope he gets in because he has such a knowledge of Parliamentary Law that he will be able to control the Senate with great propriety. Harry-You remember that Bessie Vlfachman served on our picture com- mittee at school. Now she is quite famous as a photographer and contracts for the graduation pictures at the Roosevelt every year. But can you imagine Bernie Harris as a haberdasher? Selma-No, but he is just the same. Last week I stopped in on State Street to get a tie, and he waited on meg he said that Evelyn Turchik and Arthur Ortlepp work for him. C. O.-That reminds me-when I was writing up the Cigar Men's Con- vention, I bumped into Max Ceplair and Elmer Klann who are at present prominent in the American Tibacco Syndicate, Garry told me that Harry
