was ment. After his discovery of Claminite, the government hired him for 35,000,- 000 a year just to do research. I don't know what Claminite is exactly, but I understand it's an extract of used motor oil. There, above Pete's picture, that's Barbara Miles. The Barbara Miles. What a life that poor woman has led. She had such a hard struggle up the ladder of success and then, when she became the greatest star this country has ever seen, she ruins it by marrying that veterinarian and leaving the stage. I believe the doctor's name was Belt. Ella Ruth sat there sorrowing, thinking of days gone by. Her eyes glistened with tears as her thoughts roamed over her almost forgotten high school days. Anna Mae Hughes was married to a Mexican oil man, Marilyn Samsal had become the modern Clara Barton with her help on the battle field of the Lithuanian Civil War, Bob Logan was managing General Motors, and Ron Smith-Ella Ruth blinked and turned to Hazel, Excuse me, I let my emotions get the best of me, I was just thinking of some of our classmates and I was trying to recall what happened to Ron Smith. Hazel looked at Ella Ruth with incredibility on her face. You mean you didn't hear about Ronnie? Oh, it was tragic, so horrible I can hardly bear to think about it. He and Bill Fohl rigged up a space ship about fifteen years ago. That was before modern space travel was common. Well, they had this hot-rod space jumper fixed up with dual-jets, musical horns, and about everything else imaginable, and they blasted off for Mars. No one ever saw them again. A few years later, when John Forest made the first round trip to Mars, their ship was discovered, but Bill and Ron weren't in it. The only thing the scientists can figure is that they were captured by Martian Amazons. Let's not think about it. . . . Look! There's Jo Ann and Larry Dietrich. They're managing a huge dairy out in the Virgin Islands. They've had about the happiest life of any of them. There's Fred Moore, he's a representative from Outer Mongolia to Washingtong and Norman Thompson, he has a combined career-managing the Pure Oil Company and being missionary to Inner Liberia. These drawings in the book are by Joyce Swick, Ella Ruth said, she's an artist now for the Power's Model Agency where Barbara Carley and Carol Lafferty work. That picture beside Joyce is Phyllis Ashbrook. She was voted Miss TWA of 1986. Quite an airplane hostess I understand. And there's John Johnson. He married the daughter of the Kroger million- aire and now it's all Johnny's. He has his personal picture pasted on the end seal of all the loaves of bread. Then, there's Neil Longwell, you surely have heard about him, he plays the tuba in the Mars Symphony. He's really made a name for himself. I always knew that he'd be a great success. He was the first man to arrange 'The Flight of the Bumble Bee' for the tuba. He certainly made a lot of money from it. Oh, yes,'and look here! That's a picture of Richard Montgomery. You remember at our reunion he was just getting started, but then he had to give up his stock in General Motors to be in politics. He then had to give that up too ffor various reasons that we won't go intoj so he bought an interest in the Ford Company. I always knew that he would make good, too. Oh deary me, I guess that's the end. As the two women came to the end of the book they sighed and gently closed the cover of the ancient annual. They sat there facing the dying fire, two women united with their memories of days gone by. 22
