plantation with Ubangi servants. After stay- ing over night with the Ubangis, we decided to head for our next destination, Aust'ralia. We had to make a forced landing on the shores of Australia, and our plane was dam- aged, leaving us bruised and in the hospital. Our head nurse came in vision to us to be Frances Smith, with her assistants, Baneia Yarger and Dorothy Kisabeth. The doctor, too, was an old classmate, Cecil Hook, and his assistant, the former Margy Ann Boone, now Mrs. Cecil Hook. While we were convalescing, we heard the nurses say that a famous actress was coming to the hospital on tour. We inquired further and found the beauty to be Margie McCollough. Bringing with her as a troupe, would be the Three Stooges, lames Tim- brook, Duane Donaldson, and Ray Brugge- man. Once again on our feet and OK., we headed for South America. ln Brazil we ran into Marcile Cottrell who was a secretary to the multi-millionaire, Roger F. Husted. We decided to have a little relaxation, so we went to the night club El Morocco. We noticed the very charming cigarette girl, and upon closer observation she was, to our sur- prise, Rosemary Scott. The head waiter was also a classmate of ours, Gene McClellan. Heading back to the United States we stopped at Mexico City, Mexico. We ran into Mary Elizabeth Rhoades running a southern shop for tourists. Durina our visit it was mentioned that Louella Potter and Virginia Moore had inherited some money and were traveling over the country. Always having the desire to go to Cali- fornia we made that our next destination. San Francisco was our stop and we first went to the Barnum and Bailey Circus. Much sur- prised we found the outstanding trapeze performers to be Dorothy Strubing, Eleanor Hetz, and Gertrude Smith. Due to the storrn our course was lost and Bill Morhart, now an undertaker, dug us out and informed us we were in Holy Cross. Bill told us, also, that just' down the road a few miles, Bob Evans was running a dog kennel. On a ranch in Arizona we visited one of the modern ranch houses. Entertaining us on our stay were Harold and Barbara Wor- rick Harkey. Not far from the Harkey ranch we visited Mr. and Mrs. Lowell Metz, tknown to us as Eloise Friendl, both of them being old class- mates. Going on to St. Louis, Missouri, there were Page Genevieve Frye, Marcella Panico, and Edith Lantz, running a style show bureau. We found Clara Mae Iones as Dean of the Vassar College for girls in Poughkeepsie, New York. While in Chicago Maxine Burley was writing radio scripts for a well-known serial, which was daily broadcast over the local station KBS, operated by Lee Miller. Stopping for overnight in order to attend the Breakfast Club, we later found the announcer to be Anna Laub and at the control boards, Iune lump and Betty Bab- cock. Coming back to Hicksville we told our experiences to Doris Keller who now has a happy family, and to Louise Beerbower, who is the secretary to our mayor, Herbert Scranton. Teaching in High School is our old class- mate, Martha Beerbowerg Gwen Lirnpert is Dean of the Girls College having newly been organized. Covering a few more miles we flew to Columbus where we joined the governor's party which was celebrating Neal Keller's election to the gubernatorial position. On the way back home we stopped at Lima where our old pal, Gerald Curry, was discovered managing his own bakery. After returning home we still found time on our hands, so we took a long walk through the familiar streets of old Hicksville, which without our old classmates seemed deserted. 431 iff! 3 Qs twentyffiue
