In witness hereof, we hereunto subscribe our name and Dear Mr. Wright, In reply to your inquiry as to the whereabouts of the class of '52, we have uncovered the following information: June Brown, chief stewardess of Interplanetary Airlines, never knew what she was getting herself into three years ago when she said, I want to be a stewardess.” Now she is one of the main officers in the interplanetary circuit with Mars. General Dunham is now the name given Tom by one and all. Tommy entered Officers’ Training School after graduation, came out as a first lieutenant and soon worked his way up to Five-Star General. Dick Heaslev has attained world fame as an artist with his trumpet. A world-wide tour recently proved his prowess as a musician. Dick once was with Les Brown but now has his own orchestra. Guy Gosier is back! The newspapers are full of the reports that this great war hero, single-handed, wiped out six enemy machine gun nests Guy has been called home to receive the Congressional Medal of honor. Virgil Weaver, professor of advanced calculus at Princeton Univer- sity, has become known as one of the leading mathematicians in the U.S. Virg graduated with highest honors from Cornell and is acknow- ledged by Professor Einstein as a valuable aid in his research. Harvey Hewitt has been happily married for five years and he and Mrs. Hewitt have three lovely girls. Harvey has expanded his father’s farm and now owns most of Three Mile Point. Noah Prior has finally succeeded in growing his yearly crop in two months. He once grew two crops in a year, but that was nothing com- pared to his present feat. If Noah would market the fertilizer he made up by his own formula to get more from the land, it would be possible for everyone to grow his own food in a window box. lust married were Anne LaComb and the famous millionaire, Mr. Eurip- Ldes Organthorpe. Anne was his private secretary until very recent- ly when E.O. proposed. Anne quit her job but chose her successor herself. Adelbert Brigham shall henceforth be called '’Ace . The greatest jet ace in history, his record has astonished the nation. Asked to teach jet flying, Ace refused, saying, Heck, they never taught me. Get the fellows up in the air, put the stick in their hand, and bail out—they'll learn how to fly soon enough. affix our seal June 20, 1972
