Diok Rice The older brother of Bob, Dick was born July 31, 1931 In Cleveland, Ohio, Dick has many talents, the most predominate being the gift of gab, His ex- tensive reading helps this verbalizing; It creates gab worth listening to. He was a good student, when the urge so struck him. Since he came to Kingsville in the tenth grade, he has represented the Junior class In Student Council,also the seniors when he was elected their president;spent three years on the base- ball team and one on the track team One task Dick has found disagreeable, that Is to don a white shirt, necktie and suit. Occasionally, this is accomplished through a little effort by Jean . Delores Derry April 17, 1932, marks the birthday of Dee . She came to Kingsville a sophomore, end continued In the commercial course. In the years that followed she participated in the Junior and senior plays. Besides, Dee proved an able and a very worthy member of the band and chorus. As a feature writer for the Centra-Llght Staff, she brightened many col- umns by her sparkling imagination. There are two adjectives which might well describe De- lores. The first being, short and the other livewire . The former relates her physical status and the latter her mental, and It being the one people grow to admire about her. As yet she made no definite future plans,but we aren't worried about her. Edna Shreve Bom on April 18, at Hilldom, Ohio, Edna became a pupil at Kingsville in 1947. Here's a girl who was Inter- ested in all the plays, parties, school paper etc ,that took place in her Alma Hater. She did much work on this K-Lite, generally the tedious, time-consuming, exacting kind. Also she was a willing cooperative student on the Centra-Llght Staff, taking care of the Alumni News. As the future looms very closely, Edna has made no plans(definite) However, at one time,she said (witnessed by classmates]) I would like to be the first woman pres- ident. Mr. Truman may give her a run, or is she a democrat, too? I wonder who would be first lady of the land if Edna were president. Robert Headley A quiet fellow. Bob, he made his entrance into this world July 13, 1932, in the hills of West Virginia and began his sohooling there also, in Walnut Fork School in Tyler County. When Bob came to Kingsville in the soring of 1948f he entered the sophomore class. He enrolled in the general academic course. As Bob progressed at Kings- ville, friends accumulated and they found him to be an easy-going fellow. However, this easy-going attitude did not show in his school work. A good student. Bob, and an active one, he plans to become a mechanic in the future Bob showed his great dramatio talent when he appeared briefly in the Junior play production of One Wild Night. Good luck in all your future attempts, dramatic and otherwise 10

June 2, 1960 Richard Hadlock, Esq. The Russian Ballet Company 1069 Moss Cow Avenue Leipzig, Russia Dear Richard, We were very sorry that you couldn't attend our class reunion last week, but I know that you are very busy with your ballet. It must be a wonderful life travel- ing all over the world and entertaining millions of people. Whoever would have thought that you would go in for ballet? It seemed good to see all of the class together again, after ten years. They haven t changed much except for a few gray hairs and a few bald heads. Why Merrill Davey hardly has any hair left. Speaking of Merrill, he is now president of the Standard Oil Company. I knew that someday he would succeed. Of course that isn t much of a Job, but it has opportunities. Loveda Day wasn't able to attend the reunion as a result of her husband's in- juries. He 18 a wrestler and Loveda is his manager. Bob Headley was able to attend the reunion as he is now residing in Kingsville. He 18 now owner of Howe's Barber Shop. For the smartest head in town, see Headley.11 Virginia Thelss Journeyed from pudunk Corners, Vermont, to get to the reunion. I suppose you have read in the news papers that Virginia was the first woman to swim the English Channel without resting. For performing this great stroke of magic she won $500,000. She bought a large mansion in the thriving city of Pudunk Corners and she says she is going to retire for the rest of her life. After graduation day Elbert Hawes was hard at work putting himself through college. Well, he graduated two years ago and he is now a professor at Oak Ridge A tomalogioal Engineering College. Elbert commented that he liked teaching there very much. Although we couldn't understand what he was talking about, we thought it must be quite interesting. Bob Rice spent most of his time running around with a maginfylng glass, looking for clues to the case of Who Stole My Cake While I Was Gone from the Table? Bob is operating the Super Snooper Detective Agency. I imagine it is quite a success- ful business, with Bob at its head. Jeannette finally got to the highest place she could. She is now Private Secretary to President Truman. The Republicans were suprised again. Jeannette is happy in her work, and she also states that she doesn't have half as much work to do as she did in Mr. McNutt's office. What no Coke machine? Africa 18 still screaming after its visitation by Bob Sharp. He spent three years over there and when he came back he had captured fourteen elephants, six lions, three leopards, and thirty-three monkeys. Bob says he will go back again in about six months. If you happen to play New York you might visit the Metropolitan Opera. Dick Rice Just started singing there about three years ago. He says he is never absent more than three times a week. Dick's record-breaking platter is 0 Solo Mlo, now in it8 fifth year of popularity. Stanley Kolasinski was present and accounted for at the reunion. He has been playing professional basketball. When we asked him what he bought with his first $1000, he answered, A set of well fitting false teeth. Stanley hasn't changed too much, but I do think he is a little heavier. Delores Derry was only present for a few minutes, as she had to catch a plane for Chu Munoho, China. She is a Foreign Correspondent and it surely keeps her busy. Right now she is tracking down a spy ring that has been writing their secret mes- sages on kernels of rloe. Ralph Shauberger was one of the first to arrive in his new Cadillac. He is now the President of the A 9c P Clerks Union. He says that his clerks have been out on strike for the last three years. There is no hope as long as Ralph is at its head. Incidentallybrought a friend of his along, John L. Lewis. Have you ever heard of him? Edna Shreve Journeyed all the way from Chicago to the reunion. She is now the manager of the Dainty Palhty Art Company. In her time off Edna is campaigning for a woman president in this year's election. We were happy that Belva and Lloyd were able to attend. Lloyd has been working in this section of the country. You see he's a traveling salesman, selling the Triple Whip Mixer. Several of the class were swayed by his sales talk and bought one. Pat Lawrence was there and when ask how she was getting along she said cuote, She had all of her Saturday's tied up, little ones, that is. Yes, Pat is Happily Married. We'll close for now, we hope this letter finds you in good health. THE CLASS OF 1950 12
