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.

Since their installation stop lights have been abolished on their corners. Also introduced were Dug Fabian, de- signer of prefabricated bird houses; Stanley Wyss, who has raised the biggest hog ever known; and Melvin Buescher, the man with the three stomachs (we always won- dered why he ate so much). Marian Avery, Wilma Richard and Dorothy Bethge, known as the Three Musketeers of the Canadian Mounted Police, told how they always got their man. Virginia Redfield announced that she had introduced a new kind of welfare worker. She worked at home for the welfare of her husband, Walter Sullivan. It was nearing eight o'clock, so I turned my dial to WHOM for Walter Hinchell's news flashes, sponsored by Marian Parcher's Beauty Aids. Rash! I was just informed that Ed Vistica, president of the National Electric Company, is going to ill-Yuma-nate that illustrious Broadway comedienne, Eileen Man- ning. Norma Poland and Hank Burns are going steady again. They announced plans for their wedding in a few years. Since Lester Anderson was seen out with a mysterious blonde, his wife (the former Arvilla Kelly) is taking a six weeks' vacation in Reno. What two well-known co-dictators of Turkey, whose initials are Foord Minnick and Dick Turner, are turning in their harems on next year’s models? Mr. and Mrs. Ned Seiberts, nee Solveig Storkersen, and family are planning a trip to Sweden next month. Mary Lou Landry and Bob Gilson believe in long engagements. Wedding bells are just beginning to 'peel.' Ladies and gentlemen, we have just received a special flash that Dick Sprague, recently appointed to succeed J. Edgar Hoover, has just captured 'Two Gun' Dave Powers and his East Side mob. Since I couldn't miss Erick Burmester’s program (even if I'd wanted to), I hastily tuned in station WOW. The velvety voice of Jim Foley came to me over the air waves, advertising for Ray Ameele's restaurant. Any time you are in one of our larger cities, he was saying, come in for Ameele. Jerry Covey and his All-Girl Orchestra accompanied the Hansen Hillbilly Har- monists, composed of Evelyn, Eleanor and Lucille, in a swing tune. Erick then introduced Ralph Davis, protege of Frank Buck, who had just returned from a hunting expedition in South Africa. One of the things he has brought back alive is his wife, Nancy Weeks.
