One of the foremost features of the program was Glen Butenschoen, father of the modern Baby Snooks, who spanked Snooks for skipping school. Being an ardent lover of Hawaiian music, I turned to the ABC network again for the broadcast sponsored by the Lorene Wooton Whistle Company. This program is conducted from the Royal Hawaiian Hotel in Honolulu. Jack Patton, who is also looking for a Garbo, is taking the place of Stokowski. Pat Simmons sang A Lei to Leilani, while Irene Ostby did the Dance of the Clinging Vine. Among the many celebrities introduced were Lester Hall, the prominent motion picture producer, and his wife, the ex-Maxine Fox, who are honeymooning; David Koch and his bride-to-be, Julia Howlett, who have been after a sun tan; and Janet Rieg, renowned as head of the National Women’s Escort Bureau for Lonesome Men. It was growing quite late, so I turned off my radio and television set and sat to ponder over what I had just seen and heard. I thought of many things; how many miles my classmates had traveled, and how much fame they had acquired. How things have changed in these last twenty years! Yet, I knew as I saw their faces and heard their voices once more, how little my classmates themselves had really changed. They were and are still the same old friends I had known at Jefferson.
