Virginia Smead is known in New York City as one of the most brilliant business women of the present day. One of the greatest Concert pianists, John Beall, is in Madison next week. You certainly should hear him play Schubert’s “Serenade.” Marjorie Stearns is very very wealthy and is always giving parties for the needy. She says the Girl Reserves influenced her to do this. Well, well, if we aren’t at the Metropolitan Opera House. Kenny Walker, can we believe our eyes? He is a great singer and when you think of the simple little songs he used to sing for us, you have to give him a pat on the back. Let’s sail down Broadway and see some of the every day happenings. Why there’s one—a, Salvation Army band. Why it can’t be Bruce Miller. Yes, it is ! No one can tap drums and smile at the same time just as he does. Hurray for him! Howard Fairchild is one of these people who is always receiving money. In the city we call him a banker. Now as for Lillian Wingard and Mildred Peterson, you can see their bright faces if you stop at the “Pet Pig”, for a bite to eat. They are partners and are getting along as well as usual. Speaking of Partnerships, we’ll have to add Burton Fish and Robert Mc- Kim. They are the owners of about three thousand acres of farm land that seems to be flourishing if you can judge by the wav they roll in Rolls-royces. Frances Hall has just passed the bar and now can take the law in her own hands. Yes, Mary Davet is an aviatrix, and does she know how to go up in the air!

THE CALDRON, 1932 Class Prophecy One day while sailing along in a passenger dirigible that I had taken from the Akron Airport, I met Carl Hummel, an old school friend. “Carl, what have you been doing in these ten years since I last saw you?” I asked. “I am in the New York Symphony Orchestra; I am the head Simp,” he replied. “And you, Bobbie?” “I am married now and live in Buffalo, although I still write for the news- papers. Do you know what the others of our class are doing?” “No, let’s take a trip and see if we can find out: We’ll tell the Pilot.” We looked through the vision plate and who should the pilot be but Wen- dell Atkin. Isn’t that a shock! We spoke to him and he was quite willing to help us find our classmates. He told us to look through the vision plate in the table and we could see the individuals of the earth very distinctly. This ship surely is modern; it even has an Automatic Informer which is a contribution of Robert Stubblefield. Having traveled for about a half hour, we arrived in Cleveland where we saw the Cleveland Institute of Arts which is headed by Jane E. Goddard. The remainder of our conversation was something like this: “Well, if it isn’t Margaret Lang! She is a famous dress designer. But look, isn’t that Steve Lyons? Just imagine, an owner of the Picaddily Night Club. He is giving the club a break by playing on that silver toned flute he owns. Why there is Clarence Petit, a gunmen known as Scare-face, with his body- guard. Russell Winchester in that cruising Armored car. Who’d have thought it! In that window is a familiar face. Ah, it is Eleanor Knit tel, now a well known hair dresser. Do you see Kenny Dawson? Oh, yes he owns a Taxi Cab Company to save, wear and tear on ladie’s roller skates. Aren’t those the most gorgeous roses you ever saw? And Lucille Vaux is selling them. Here we are at the M. M. H. S. Broadcasting station which is owned by Howard Fortney. He always thought broadcasting was quite the thing. As to the Station Announcer, you know it’s Wesley Hunter. It’s just a continuation of the Friday morning Chapel meetings. Talking of Radios, Richard Quirk is the one to whom everyone is obligated for the perfection of Television. The Radio is named, “Rickquick,” by name only as you certainly pay him enough for one. There’s Vernon McClish, better known as “Kid Clish,” battling for the heavy-weight championship. Isn’t that a cute house! Surely that’s Margaret Wetzel, and see what’s following in her footsteps. I knew she was interested in nurseries but I didn’t think it was her life work. Oh look at that sign board. Anne Janezic is playing at the Palace this week in “Sarah Gillman.” She has replaced Greta Garbo in the public eve. twenty-four

The Junior Class Study Hall, M. M. II. S. May 12, 1932 Dear Mary: As you asked me to write you about all the Juniors and what they’re do- ing, I am going to try to tell you everything in this letter. There is so much to say that. I hardly know where to begin. The first thing we did last Fall, was to elect our class officers. We elected Robert Schack, president, Joe Austin, vice president, Gordon Hejduk, secret- ary and Leo Koren, treasurer. At the end of the first semester Robert moved away, and “Buck” took his place as president. We then elected Karl Stegmuel- ler vice president. As you know, it is customary for the Juniors to give the Seniors a banquet in the Spring. Naturally, our first business was to earn money for this and other class expenses. While we were still debating what to do, a representative from the Curtis Publishing Company came to see if we didn’t want the job of selling subscriptions for their three magazines. Well, this looked like a fairly good proposition to start on, so we accepted the offer. For two weeks, anywhere in town you might have gone, you would have seen a Junior standing on a front doorstep trying to argue some housewife into buying a magazine. Oh yes, I must tell you in what an interesting way we carried on our campaign. We had our class divided into two Indian tribes, the green feathers and the red feathers. “Buck” was chief of the red feathers and I was chief of the green. twenty-sir
