UUH PHUPHEEY A class reunion and my, what fun! The place - M.H.S. , the class -'51, They met each other warmly and I was there To watch the proceedings, light and fair. I was in that class and anxious to see Just what had happened after a ten years' spree We'd each gone our own way, which wasn't so bad, But the news to catch up on - gad, oh, gad! Annabell and Dolly, Waves they are now, Their gold bars on their shoulders, not aworry on their brow. Miriam, in a Baltimore office does type Business letters and all such the like. George R. and Eugene are men of the soil, On farms of their own they constantly toil. Nat, a full-fledged architect, plans houses and such And Bill Rohrbaugh, the carpenter, gives them their finishing touch Carl Reed goes inside - a good cabinetrnaker he is - The new house has cabinets quick as a whiz. Betty Anne, a receptionist , sweet and polite, Janet Baughman draws pictures fit for sight. , Betty Alban - mission accomplished - now does rave, She's made Jack her husband and loving slave. Otis, so quick to notice every mistake, Has become a critic - what else? - for goodness sake! As a butcher's wife, Margaret's completely happy. Evelyn, so short and cute, has her shorthand boss daffy. Heinz, our German friend, is now a minister of state, While engineer Brown builds bridges wide and great. Grease and oil make a mechanic of Richard Reed, And Shirley, a secretary, every word does heed. As a Phys. Ed. teacher Richard Lippy is tops, And George Z. on his farm, sings while raising the crops. Janet Myers, carefree and happy as a lark, Saved all her money and now owns Forest Park! Jay as a farmer leads a contented, happy life, But that's all because M. Wellborn's his wife. Earl is a handsome, well-dressed business tycoon, June, a secretary, will become Mrs. Brown soon. Dr. K. Green fights germs and disease, And Audrey, a typist, tries hard to please. Dear Therit, many beauty shop customers she's won, But that's because of all the pretty hairdos she's done. Helen Martin - a most accurate bookkeeper by far, Her nice, neat records have nary a mar. And Juanita S. has her own by-line, As a newspaper woman she's doing just fine. l've told you about the old classmates of mine, Incidentally, they all seem to be doing fine. From the halls of school we had a challenge to face, Lnto the corridors of life we went with steady pace.
