PROPHE CY My next stop was at Ruth's Roadside Restaurant, where the proprietress, Ruth Laub, was overjoyed to know that we would have our banquet dinner there. Ruth owns a chain of restaurants which Betty Brown, Arlene Scott,and Genevieve Sing- leton manage, Martha Evans is dietician for the entire chain and says she owes her abilities to Miss Howenstein. Ruth is going to give her managers the day off so that they may attend the banquet. Since I had seen all Icould contact personally, I went home to my prefabricated house, designed, by master-architect, Roger Chaney, one of our Senior Class ad- visors. There Ifound my mail box filled to overflowing. The letter to first catch my eye was one post-marked 'fTimbucktoo . It was from Pat Davis! She is a famous missionary now and asked me to relay her regards to the Class of '47. Another letter was from Patricia Miller. Having divorced her fifth husband in Reno, she met and married a rich dude from Arizona. She is rolling in wealth and asked to finance the reunion. Another was a'nice, newsy letter from Eleanor Hauter. She is secretary of the famed psychologist, Eudora Reitz. Eleanor said that since several of the Wgang' are in New York at present, they all plan to come home together. Mary Ellen Bell is in New York on tour as a reward for winning a typing contest. She netted 130 words a minute. Lois Aten will come with them, also. She has been in New York City lecturing against dancing. The fourth letter was from Mary Lou Timbrook, who is teaching in a Bible Institute. She is heading a campaign for shoes for the natives of Richmond, Kentucky, Miss Moores' old home town. Mary Lou says that Reverend and Mrs. William L. Lower are going to pick her up on their way here from Reverend Lower's charge in Tennessee. Joyce is supperintendent of the Children's Home in Nashville. The letter I got from Mickey Zimmerman last week relieves me of trying to contact her. Mickey is teaching music in Germany with a group of World Peace Promoters .under the direction of Mike Sapp who is trying to build up the populous of Germany through physical training. Four other classmates will be unable to attend the reunion. Bill Powell, who was continually experimenting in school, has won the Nobel for his efforts. Bill has perfected an invention which blew the snow and ice off Antarctica. Now he is on that continent experimenting with the valuable resources there. George Rohrs, Bernard Rohrs and Basil Timbrook are also in Antarctica doing experi- mental farming. They credit Mr. Norman Merwine and F.F.A. for their abilities. Sponsored by The Locker Market

PROPHE CY Dear Diary , This is definitely the most eihausting day I've ever spent. But before I retire I want to tell you of all my escapades because live enjoyed them so very much. Apparently the president of the Class of '47 had premonitions of the fact that I would be about the only one left in Hicksville when the time came for our Class Reunion, so he unofficially appointed me to contact each and every one, which Pve endeavored to do. We graduated just ten years ago today and what a day! If one can be sad and glad at the same time--then those were the mixed emotions of the Class of '47. It was impossible to have our reunion today, however, so it will be a week from Sunday. Florence Cole, Lawyer William R. Miller's private secretary, wrote me and asked if it could be postponed because our 'Dewey' is busy defending Mr. H. R. Hinton and his loyal followers who are advocating that the younger genera- tion isn't 'fgoing to the dogs. I went up to Mayor Don Culler's office to see if he knew whether or not Re- presentative Carl Gecowets would be home. Don gave me an affirmative answer and said that Congress would be adjourned at that time. Both of them claim they owe their success to their experiences at Boys' State. He also said thathe had received word from his friend, Waldo Keller, that since his band is featured at Cleveland this month, he will be here. Idrove around by McCallaPs Research Laboratories and was quite surprised to find Elaine Cottrell and Martha Keller working as lab supervisors. Bill is pub- lishing a new monthly, McCal1a's Science Digest. Hearing that Danny Jenkins was in the hospital with a broken neck and six cracked ribs, I drove to Rosedale to see him. Barbara Koch is superintendent of the new hospital and she has Cleo McFeeters a.nd Mary Ellen McQuistion work- ing there. Ila Mae Moon is dietician and Donal Wonderly is chief cook. After talking to Barb for sometime, she took me to see Danny. There he was--sur- rounded by the entire personel of our most elite Barber Shoppe. Karl Balser and Micheal Hicov were giving him a haircut and their manicurists Jeanne Fogle and Teresa Schliesser were fixing his nails. It wasn't until after they had finished that I found the reason for Danny's condition. He had visited Panasu.k's Muscle Building Center where Walter Beverly is employed and--well--you know Heavy Bev! Barb said Bob's establishment has kept the hospital pretty busy. On my way back home, the car broke down and I had to call Maurice Tuttle's Used Car and Repair Shop. Who should drive the wrecker out after me but Carl Helsel. Maurice's Shop works in co-ordination with Charles Carey's Garage so they took my automobile there where expert mechanics, Claron Bauer and lack Bailey, could work on it. Since I had a little time to wait, I decided to go to a movie. I went to Thiel's Theatre, quite competently managed by Paul, where to my surprise he was featur- ing Windy's Last Love?9', starring Linda Durre, accomplished vocolist, and Bonnie B. Kon the key. They're still styled by Vivian Arend and their make-up was by Dorothy West. When I came out of the Theatre, whom should I meet but Jeanne Lehman. She has been writing a book entitled 'A Thousand Practical Ways to Use Chicken Feathers? Together we went to 1oe's joint , where the owner, JoAnn Mettert, gave us appointments for the ffwoiks' before the class reunion. I had just left Iearme when along came Marlin Miller. He gave me several free tickets to see ffPapa Davis' Midget basketball team play in the auditorium owned by Herbert Beerbower. Marlin is manager of the Midgets and he says they plan an extensive nation-wide tour soon. I stopped by at the 'SDoodles' Daily' Office and asked Editor Max McDonald to give the reunion a write-up in his paper. Ma.x said that I might be glad to know that Ned Beck is establishing his own business. Naturally, a bakery--Beck's Bakery--and of all places--in the Belgian Congo.
