she mounts deer heads for all the hunters.J Well known among the fur companies are Dot Smith and Hope Williams, who raise wolves to harass the younger generation and to keep young girls in at night. The former Marie Kean, co-editor of our yearbook, is here with her handsome husband. Before her marriage, the intelligent Marie was on the stage as a mimic. But she was a complete flop because she couldn't be like anyone else. Many of our class have shown athletic prowess. Connie Hubbard is wearing the medal she won by swimming the Atlantic Ocean. Norma Dickson and Ruth McIntosh earn their livings as contortionists. Pussy Wheeler is an instructor of professional jiu-jitsu. Beverly Latham has developed muscles in the last sixteen years working as a rug-beater. One member of our class is a pugilist-Howard Kniht. Bette Hamson has gained fame as a lady wrestler. Tomorrow night we're going to watch her in Salem. Bill Terrill is wearing his bull fighter's costumeg Spain's most popular toreador, he has an especially great following among the senoritas. Barbara Stone and Deac Daggett also have romantic jobs. Barbara is a cowgirl in Aguascalientes, Mexico, and Deac is a cowboy in the Argentine. Walter Hill is going out to make a phone call. Well dressed as always, he earns his living as an old clothes man. Audrey Andrews is at work as a telephone operator-on a twenty-four hour shift in order not to miss any juicy gossip. Walter had better not say anything conndentiall What a cough Clayton McKenzie has! This capable chauffeur is tak- ing out a box of Parker Brothers' cough drops. This marvelous. product made by Robert and Bob Parker fthe brothers! is the most popular cough drop as shown by a survey of school children who chew cough drops instead of candy in classes. Marilyn Groff's propaganda in the commercial art de- partment of the company may have increased sales. This banquet is being financed by Catherine Barry Enterprises, Inc. Babe located a gold mine in Xerokhorion, Greece, by means of radar. She became interested in radar after the moon was contacted back in 1946, and began experimenting with it. She got an exceptionally strong echo from the vicinity of Evvoia Island in Greece, and, upon investigation, found a large deposit of gold on the outskirts of Xerokhorion, Babe is now fan- tastically wealthy, and gives thousand dollar bills away when she is asked for a dime for a cup of coffee. Members of the class were pleased when they learned that today was going to be fair. Did you know that it was Jean Weed, New England's most accurate weather forecaster, who predicted it? Jean Kelty's a G-woman. She has looked into the private lives of many of our classmates. She found out that Maureen Herlihy is employed as a driller of worm holes in a factory that makes antique furniture. Maureen is here, but we haven't yet had a chance to speak to her.

Trudy is his wife and his nurse. Phil is especially proficient in setting broken limbs, for he gets lots of practice at the lodge. Mr. and Mrs. Perkins Gould probably find this reunion dull, since they run a barrel tow at Niagara Falls. Perkie and his wife, the former Eileen Atkins, have the barrel tow to raise people back up to the top of the falls, since going over the falls in a barrel is now almost as popular a sport as skiing. Josephine Gianino works for the Goulds. She conducts tours over the falls and down the Niagara River in a large barrel with glass windows that holds twenty-five people. At a table over in the corner are Bob Lueders and Fred Graves- both Nobel prize winners. It seems that Bob and Ed Remick are great pals, and Bob perfected a hair restorer for Ed to use. This hair restorer was so good that it won for Bob the Nobel prize in chemistry for the year 1954. In 1959 Fred found a way to put the smashed atom back together, and make something out of nothing, instead of nothing out of something, which the world has been doing. For this Fred won the Nobel Peace Prize. A little while ago an ambulance pulled up to the door, closely followed by a hearse. Then in came Jack Masterson and 'Tom Glancy, Bud is a famous surgeon, noted for the success of his operations as well as the fact that he sings to his patients. Right next door to his office is the under- taking establishment of John Masterson and Co. It has been rumored that Jack pays Bud 25W of the undertaker's fees on all persons who go directly from the office of T. J. Glancy, M.D. to that of J. Masterson 8: Co., Morti- cians. Even rumor, however, is not sure whether the majority of the patients die from surgery or singing. Jo Borden, co-editor of the 1946 M. H. S. yearbook, is now happily married, but she does all the work in the family. She is custodian of the Marblehead Yacht Club, which is now the most exclusive club in the country. June Korsun looks as young, tanned, and healthy as she did in high school. Running a health-resort in the Adirondacks seems to agree with her. While the proprietor is away, her establishment is in the able hands of her nurses, Betty Dooling and Eleanor Hamson. Her other employees- Frank Meredith, busboyg Priscilla Fagg, waitress, and George Walker, gardener-are also carrying on during the holiday without her. Evelyn Bartlett, Jean Perry, Maryalice Shea, and Jane Doliber, June's patients, are absent from our reunion. The great educator, Ed Tracy, is present. Feeling sorry for the ignor- ant members of the insect world, he has spent his life since his high school graduation in training fleas. In looking around we see several people who are working with animals. Brad Carey is a monkey trainer, and Gloria Wood works in a zoo, where she tries hard to keep us from feeding the animals. Another place where you can go to see animals is Ruth Bailey's pet shop. Betty Atkin's animals are popular, also. Hers are stuHed, how- ever, as she is a taxidermist. lWe're sure the business is profitable, for

We miss poor Evelyn Scott. She was going to travel in an original way. She tried to go through the earth by means of a. tunnel, but she ap- parently got stuck in the middle because gravity prevented her going out the other side. Charles Perry, A.B., M.A., B.S., M.S., Ph.D., LLD., C.'P.A., is Presi- dent of the College of Styx, California. Also, educationally inclined is Miss Jean Raney. She's an old-maid school teacher in spite of her high school popularity. CShe still has about seventeen suitors, but she can't make up her mind! And she's afraid the others will start feuding if she says yes to one.J Right now she's making eyes at J aul Ryan. You see, J awck and Paul are movie star and stand-in. No one, not even the twins, knows which is which. They must take turns. Barbara Hunt makes an attractive society woman. She is very happy with her husband, who has billions of dollars. Jeff Peach is spinning yarns about the size of the lobsters his mag- nificent fleet brings in. None of the good ones get away, so he claims. Alyce Nelson sees her classmates occasionally during her day's work. She sells fruit at a stand at the junction of Humphrey, 'Tedesco, and Maple Streets, and Glendale Road. When she has no customers, she polishes the apples. Ray Orne looks like a Vitalis Ad. His hair is good advertising for his shop, Raymonde's Beauty Shoppe, to which all the queens of the school Football Follies flo'ck. Sitting at the table next to Jack Baumann are Jane Benet, Connie Bolus, and Priscilla Fogg. Jane is now running a very successful finishing school in Malden. All the fashionable families in Boston send their daugh- ters there. Connie is president of the Marblehead Savings Bank. She is planning on changing the American monetary system from dollars and cents back to pounds, shillings and pence. Pussy Fogg is head astronomer at Mt. Wilson Observatory. She is using the two-hundred-inch telescope to search the heavens for her lucky star. Nancy Gebow and David Gould were unable to be here tonight. Nancy is running a night fclub in Boston which is at the moment ina condition of financial embarrassment, so it requires all of Nancy's attention to keep the club going. Dave is an icebox salesman in Alaska. He sells refrigerators to the Eskimos to keep their food from freezing. He was snowed in in Nome last winter and he hasn't been able to get out yet. However, he expects to be dug out any day now. , The United States Secretary of State, Don Smith, has broken away from the State Department for one night to come to the reunion with his secretary, Anna Guarino. Stog has been doing a very good job in his position, and has been holding oif a war with Russia for the past three years.
