Look Into The F utwre 1957 Hurrying aboard ship one late April evening, whom did I encounter but my old classmate from high school days Marion Bankert. Not having much time to talk, we made a dinner date that evening. After checking over the supplies in sick bay and settling my self in my stateroom, I went to the dining room to await the arrival of Marion where I saw Mr. and Mrs. LeRoy Harner and Mr. and Mrs. Carroll Miller fMrs. Miller was the former Jacqueline Hockensmithl celebrating their wedding anniversaries by taking a second honeymoon in Southern France. This promised to be a more pleasant trip then I anticipated. While enjoying the meal set before us and talking of the happy times we had together, our conversation soon drifted to our other classmates and we wondered where they were. Marion told me of the completion of the new ten story professional building in New York where Hylda Klinefclter had her office. She had a thriving medical practice in addition to her duties at the hospital. She had employed, as an office nurse, Betty Eckenrode. When looking around we found practically everyone had left the dining room so hurriedly we headed for the lounge. Here we talked to the Harners and Millers. LeRoy told us David Reinaman was doing post-graduate work at Harvard and Jackie gave us the whereabouts of Janet Wintrode. She was married and the mother of two children. She and her husband owned one of the largest dairy farms in Wisconsin. The six of us went to the ballroom where I had a surprise for them-Herbert Se11's orches- tra was making it's first crossing and provided music for dancing while going over. When we walked in, their guest soloist was singing and, to our astonishment, it was Bud Schwartz. They both were big hits in thc states. We sincerely hoped they would have the same success in Europe. Enjoying the companionship of my old friends, the voyage seemed quite short. After landing at Le Havre we all bid fond adieu. The captain told us that our ocean liner would lay over in the harbor for a few days, so, taking advantage of this,I decided to fly to Paris. It was just my luck that an American Clipper had been forced down at the Le Harve airport the night before and was going on to Paris in a half-hour. After much wrangling I finally was able to travel on the clipper. I was relieved about getting into Paris sooner and it also delayed my use of French language which was practically non-existent. I heard a pleasant familiar voice saying Fasten your safety belts, lease. I turned quickly to see if I could be- lieve my ears. Yes, the hostess was Dorothy Knight. We talked while traveling and Dot told me Elizabeth Utz and Frances King were hostesses too. Upon arriving at Paris, I registered at one of the hotels and went to my room to refresh myself. Calling room service for my lunch- but when I asked I found the operator to be Louise Dodrer. She was free that evening so I asked her to join me in going to the theater. During the performance, we noticed a wonder- ful dancing couple. The girl was a petite blonde and a very graceful dancer. When she danced to the right of the stage where we were sitting we thought the face was familiar-but we were not sure. After the dance was over and they reappeared, we were convinced that the blonde Twenty-eight
