The scene: Time: Cast: Scene: CLASS PROPHECY OF 1953 Broadway. crossroad of the world. 1957 Two old Kents Hill grads, Brian Moore and Mel Tukey. Brian recognizes Mel and walks over to him. Mel! Mel Tukey! How the heck are you? WelI, Brian Moore, you old son of a gun! Haven't seen you since graduation! Have you heard anything from our old classmates? Yes. I was watching television one night and saw the nation's Number One comedienne, Alice Trefethen. Did you know Peggy Reeder flunked out of college? I have read where Dave Cadarett has taken over Dick Button's place in the Ice Follies. You know, Judy Lincoln replaced Bob Cousy. I couldn't get a plane out of LaGuardia because of the Fogg that was sweeping across the city-- Rachel, that is. I've been down to visit Bob Morse's opium den. You know. I've been taking dancing lessons. Arthur Murray? No, Bill Lynch. I saw Spike Jones and his City Slickers in Symphony Hall last night. Carole Cooper was playing the piano for them. I was in Maine last summer and passed Norm Davis and his wife. the former Elaine Leighton,driv- ing their custom-built Cadillac along the multi-million dollar Monhegan bridge Norm donated out of profits from one of his more prosperous fishing years with his boat, the Nyanza. l was reading the current best-seller the other day, The Perils of Hitching by Gene Stone. I read that Pat King is physical education director at Brown University and Jack Warren is now president of Charles Antell. Dick Pollard really fell in love with money, didn't he? He even married one ofthe Nichols. I heard over the radio that Emily Boiley and Harriet Piper are opening a monastery. Norm Schneider certainly cornered the fertilizer market. Nancy Nichols has just acquired the controlling shares of the stables at Saratoga. l read in the society pages that Irene Adell has finally married her millionaire. Marilyn Gardner recently filed her third application to Annapolis. l was talking to a fellow the other day who has been traveling through the South. He told me that Carol Tasker is now a tobacco auctioneer in Kentucky. Muriel Eldridge took over as Dean of Men at Wesleyan last year. I read in the sports section that two of our former day 'hops.' Marjorie Wight and Norma Currier. have been matched for the Heavyweight Wrestling Championship. Olympiic skier, Keith Brown. has retired. He told me that every time he thinks of the 'Hill.' he sees 'Re . ' Have you heard about Mal Stone and Dona Macaulay touring the world with their aerial stunts? Mal flies his plane upside down while Dona clings to one wing by her feet. I saw Carolyn 'Horse' Westervelt the other day. She told me that she has never found a substitute for 'Hay. ' I read in Science Newsletter that Doug Hinds is now chief cook and bottle washer aboard Mr. Van's rocket to Venus. Captain F. 'Video' Stone is the pilot. Do you remember Burrows Dolbeare from Florida? Sure, you mean old 'Rebel'? Well. he's making quite a living at the Portland end of the Maine Turnpike. He's selling electric blankets. Do you suppose Dick Berry has ever discovered that Wesleyan does to its orange juice? Speaking of beverages, Connie Mitchell has married one of the nation's leading manufacturers' sons, one of Milwaukee's finest. Ray Dube just left for Hollywood to make the life's story of Rudolph Valentino. Don Lenfest is going with him. He's going to make a sequel to King Kong. Nye and Kiki just left to tour Europe with their home-grown version of the Harlem Globetrottersf' I guess Houdini, the famous escape artist. has finally been overshadowed. Don Gatti has just been given the title of 'The World 's Greatest. ' Arnie Buckley. after getting his Ph.D.. got his first job as truck driver for the Buxton Lines. I see that Bill Cannon and Fred Buckley have been entered in the current Who's Who, the reason being that their room at Kents Hill was regarded as second only to the 'Black Hole of Ca1cutta. ' What was that girl's name who never could hold on to a tray in the dining room and who always said the wrong thing at the right time? You mean Ginnie Winslow? That's her name! Did you know she has obtained one of the most envied positions in the country --the right guard position for the Pittsburg Steelers? 23
