As spokesman for the class of '55, may I say we are all very happy to appear on this television program, World's Most Famous People . I am proud that we are all so well known as to be asked to appear in a group. Now I will refresh all your minds with some history of these important people, and what they have accomplished since they graduated twenty years ago from Maupin High School. First, you all know Joyce Wing who lives in Hawaii and owns a string of race horses. Just last year one of her horses won the Hawaiian Handicap for 25 year olds. It is rumored that she is seeing a lot of a Sheik from Saudia Arabia whom she became acquainted with at a steeple chase in England. Knowing Joyce, I am sure her interest was in the horses and not the Sheik. Harold Spurgeon is in the automobile business and invented a device that will give 157 miles to the gallon. As yet, it works only on bicycles. He also owns a service station and Bob Skeen is his head mechanic. Bob made a slight mistake while fixing the rear end of a custom built Cadillic and all the gears went backward, except reverse. Next is Dolores Webb, who runs a fashion show in the Nevada Desert for educated monkeys, of which she is head model. She made a tour of Paris with her shows and came back with many new ideas and fashions. Dolores is not married but is still planning on it eventually. I must say, George is awfully patient. Many of you will know on sight the president of a construction company, Junior Whitesell. He is right now building a multi-million dollar dam on Trout Creek at Willowdale. John Eckert is a prospector in the Rocky Mountains and has added Francis, the talking mule, to his pack string to keep him company. Gladys Palmer owns a logging camp at Tygh Valley. She is married to Dick, her foreman, and they have five children who are known as the Lucky Loggers Dance Team . By the way, the name of the camp is Lilac Bush Logging Company . Although Don Cooley was expected to be a minister he is a gambler in Nevada, where he runs a huge establishment and is putting Harold's Club out of business. Don makes a lot of money and is said to be really loaded. So, are his dice. 14
