QlcM Date: 1956 . . . Place: Eddie Shaw’s Restaurant . . . Subject: Class Reunion Scene Opens: The class is seated at a large banquet table, chatting and laughing. When the Senior Class of 1951 graduated, they planned to have a reunion in five years. We are now at the reunion. Let me introduce you to the members of that unforgettable class. Here are Eddie Shaw and Esther Davis, the co-owners of the fine restaurant. Eddie does all the cooking while Esther takes orders and waits on customers. That intelligent looking man seated over there is none other than Alden Downer, who has the reputation of being the shrewdest businessman on Wall Street. With him is part of his office staff — Carole Manna and Ginny Pyne. Ginny is his receptionist and Carole is his private secretary. Over there is Chubby Goodale. He is top salesman for the Fuller Brush Com- pany. His assistants are Rose Salluce and Priscilla Buck. They line up prospective customers and Chub gives them a sales talk that will sell anything. That’s Shirley Cameron who swims professionally. Seated with her is her coach, Jim Beshai. Her publicity manager is that fellow with his head buried in his plate — Bob Parkin. Beside Bob, Milly Davis sits. She is entering her last year at school where she is learning to be a veterinarian. Let’s see now. Who’s that nice looking navy man? Why it’s Billy Manna! He always did like navy life. Bill tells us that he is making it a life-time career. This is Eddie Denton of Denton and Son Electrical Appliances. Eddie is married now and is also a successful businessman. Beside Ed is Robert Goyer, who is a famous scientist. His fame was rocketed forth with an experiment that almost completely destroyed his laboratory, along with his house. You all remember Irene Southworth. She is office manager in a huge business establishment here in town. This empty chair beside Irene’s chair belongs to one member of the class who couldn’t be here tonight. He is in the Air Force, but I’m sure you all know and remember him- -Charlie Fitch. Now here are Richie Morrow and the former Peggy Bavosi. Peg was Irene’s private secretary, but retired a few months ago because she married a wealthy customer she met while working. Richie is a well-known auctioneer, and believe me, he really can sell things ! Well, well. Look at this girl. It’s Eleanor Pedini ! Elly is now manager at the Loew s Poli Theater. To think that only a few years ago she was just a candy-girl there. We knew she’d make a success. It looks as though the last one seated here is the former Josephine LaComfora, who was married soon after she graduated. There are some other people who aren’t here tonight. Two of them were class- mates who went to Edwards until their Junior Years. — Richard Rhindfleisch and Mildred Leschke. Richie is a carpenter now, and Milly is the secretary to the owner of a large market. There were others who didn’t graduate with the class, but we hear they are all quite successful. Richard Lyon, Ralph Doe, John Ivashek, Marilyn Williams, John Rotti, Robert Gambaccini, Gail Story, and William Harthan. I forgot to introduce myself. I was the class advisor of this remarkable class. Mr. Lepore.
