Ramona Heavner and Helen Hoffman are heads of the home economics depart! ment in Bay Wood High School, Kentucky. I hear that through their efforts the department has undergone Vast improvements. Rachrl Voffey and Earline Norwood. famous lady scientists, are preparing' to tell us of some of their new discoveries in medicine- But. goodness! I've been having such a wonderful time talking' to all my class- mates, that I hayen't realized it was growing' so late. Everyone reluctantly agrees that again parting time is here. And so, as Shirley l'offey, renowned pianist. plays the school song, and as Betty Kincaid, Metropolitan Opera star. leads in singing. the voices of nearly 100 classmates and friends ring' out eyen as they did ten years ago. Only this time the voices are richer and fuller, expressineg a quality of hope and confidence in the future. Yes, it has been a very successful reunion, and now we must again go forth and take our places in the worldethc class of '47 marches on. Doms C'Rowi:I.1. CLASS POEM Some of us grew up together: Others came in one by one: Many joined us in the Freshman class. As our High School was begun: But each one has contributed His part to the work and fun. Rotund Edgar and bright little Doyle, Mary with her sweet brown eyes, True blue Murphy and scientific Darrel, Leary. solemn and wise. Talkatiye Ronnie and serious Sybil, And our group ot' ex-G. l.'s. Laughing Irma and stuclious Doris, Jane with her gentle smile. Auburn-haired Betty and wise-cracking Bobby, Phyllis with all her style, Good natured Dusty and arguing John, All haye made our class worthwhile. Now as we leaye behind our High School, The highways of life to bless, May the world be made richer and wiser And have more of happiness By the coming of the class of forty-seven, The gift of L. H. S. ED RAMSAUR, JR., Class Powf llflqi' ,NllV7l'fl+'I'

Speaking' of John reminds me that I haven't seen Doodle Grigg yet. Uh yes, there she is, over in the corner, telling Hubert Mcf'onnell U S Ambassador to Creat , . . .. , I Britain, that from a thousand Southern e 'l,' .'l 1 f' ' ' 1 ' C . gn s sic was selected as thc one with the Most Southern Drawl. This contest was sponsored by Darrell Dean Peeler, owner of the tfolunibia Broadcasting' System, in order to find a g'irl for his new radio program, Our Gal Mandy. Yates Vashion. owner ot' an undertaking' establishment, seems to be looking for someone. Inquiring' whether I can be ot' any help, he tells me that he is looking 'for Paul Peeler and Alvin Byrd. partners in a large furniture conce1'n. My funeral home is so dull and 'lil'eless', he says, I've decided to have it all done over in a new color scheme, as well as new l'urniture. I would like to have some bright color that will do away with the 'dead atmosphere' that seems to prevail. tImaginelJ Wishing' to be oi' help, I suggest that he engage Dorothy Whitesides and Betty Elmore, noted interior decorators. Vtlell, this is a surprise. The orchestra at our reunion is none other than that of Melvin Vanipe, one of the class of '47! lIe is directing them in all the songs which were popular back in our g'ood old High School days. Right now Robert Ledford and Sue Mctiinnis, the vocalists. are singing' an old favorite, I Never See Maggie Alone. Thelma Beal and Faye tlanipe are here together, inseparable as always The A ik at th l 13' cven wo ' e same job, writers ot' the love-.orn column in the New York Hwrolrl Trilmnc. The editri B to our class reunion. V. en Hudisill. managed to leave his office also to come VYillia Dean Smith. editor of the helpful cookbook entitled Georges Favorite Recipes seems to be happy over sc ing 'zll hci lass t ., . . I 1' C -' c .wma es ag'ain. At present she is talking' to Wilma Devine and Bobbie Flanton, owners of an exclusive dress shop on Fifth Avenue. The dresses at this shop are designed by Betty Jean Ellis. The famous Bonnie hats. styled by Bonnie Mauncy, are also sold there. Bonnie always did have crazy ideas, so I guess her skill at creating' ladies' hats just comes naturally. Betty Rayburn, Thelma Causey, and Elgiva Bost are certainly excited about something'. Unable to withstand my curiosity, I hurry over to see what it's all about, and learn that these three classmates of mine are going' to attend the meeting of the Ilnited Nations' Delegates as secretaries. No wondei' they are excited! Marilyn Shutord is being' swamped with questions concerning' her work as a missionary. Doyle Freeman, pastor ot' a large church in New York, is especially interested in what she has to say. Marilyn was flown back from China in a plane piloted by Loretta Kendrick ot' the Williams Airport, owned and operated by Craig' Williams. I believe Vraig' is here today. Yes, over there he is talking' to David Mace. star pitcher for the Brooklyn Dodgers. I knew there was someone to whom I had not yet spoken! Now I remember! It's Bones Belch, who has become a k'llf l l ' . s'1 u Jrain surg'eon in one ot' New York's largest hospitals. Talking' with Bones, I learn that Ruby Auton and Louise Cihap- lnc . , . . ,. ,. - . ' 1 ' ' an are nuiscs at the same hospital, that Juanita Thornburg' is the laboratory technician, and that Dorothy Schrum is the receptionist there. Ed Ramsaur and Phyllis Vostner are discussing' their mutual interests college . . i . . , g life and teaching. Ed is history protessoi' at Harvard University, and Phyllis is the instructor in public speaking' at Farolina. So Farolyn James is teaching' dancing' at a l:i.rg'e girls' school in Virginia' This l ' l wings Jack memories of those wonderful school dances we used to havc, Goldie always being the most popular girl on the dance floor. Flair Bivins and Sue Bumgardner, owners of a restaurant, are here also. Sybil Ilineberger. a noted poet, is telling' them that the delicious food served there could inspire her to write a poem. Pat Floniger and Reid Finger a1'e joint owners ot' a large dairy farm. Among' th,i1, it .. . , . J. . , ' e cus omeis ale tht foimci Miss Betty Sue Beal. now the wife of the wealthy tycoon, J. D. Fockereller. and Colleen Buff, a member of Congress. Why, I wonder what happened to Ruth Hilda Laney. She looks as if she has been in an accident. Mi1'iam Stroud. a skilled bookkeeper, tells me that Ruth Hilda is the animal trainer for Barnum and Bailey, and that last week she was attacked by a lion. Ed Beal, owner ol' a peroxide manufacturing' plant, rushed into the ring and saved Ruth from a horrible tate. No wonder the poor girl is here in a wheel chairl Gloria Harkey and Betty Jane Ilhyne certainly have interesting' jobs. They are in charge of a matrimonial bureau in ill1lC'10'0. Bitl l C c c 1, iowcver, decla1'e that they will close the bureau for good as soon as they find themselves a man. Polly Delling'er, a famous Powers' model, is here talking' with her old chum, Mary Miller. Mary has become a g'rt-at artist, her latest painting' being' shown in the art museum ot' London. How this reminds me ol' those wonderf'ully artistic posters Mary drew for the Fall t'arnival oui' senior year in High School! Illltls' I1flf7Ii's'r7
