MEMENTO 19-F5 Since Betty Rader has become manager of Shady Acres Golf Cocrse, there has been an ap- palling number of applicants for caddy jobs. All the men want Betty to teach them the game of golf. Paul Spitsnaugle, who, while still in High School, made up his mind to remain a bachelor, has succeeded Edgar Bergen as the most famous ventriliquist of his time. As fate would have it-, Paul fell in love, and though he was too bashful to do his own proposing, he had Oscar, his dummy, pro- pose for him. His wife is the former Edith Mitchell. Edith claims Paul can hold her on his knee just as well as he does any of his dummies. Jay Mcllougle is now a barker with the Woo-Woo Girlie Show. Jay says he really has some- thing to shout about. Something is a red-head, the star of the show. Naomi Fliekinger, who always aspircd to be a model, is now posing for Varga. She hastens to state that she always wears a bathing suit while modeling. Since Naomi has been on the job, how- ever, Esquire readers have noticed a definite decline in the curvaciousness of the Varga girls. They are beginning to complain. One of Vargafs closest rivals is Borga, the former Alice Coakley. Alice studied art while her husband was in the army, and, when he returned she was drawing a sizeable salary. While Alice toils over her drawings, Bill now takes life easy. Jim Rider, hoping to gain fame by being the first man to land on the moon, took off from earth on a warm June night in 1960. Jim, however, was greatly disappointed, for when he landed his space ship he found Alyee Baker and her new husband there on their honeymoon. Alyce and the Mr. wanted to be alone . Margaret Peneton is now the star vocalist of her husband's famous orchestra. Despite her singing career, she has found time to raise a family of ten. After being disappointed in love, Gene Bovee left McComb for distant places. He is now an Eskimo in the Far North and whenever a woman comes within a mile of him, he hibernates with his pet polar bear. When her herd of Shorthorns grew too large for her farm, Reva Snavely moved to Texas. There she met her husband, a real-life cowboy. She now raises Longhorns and children- Doing her best to carry on the ideals of an All-American Farmer, who was her inspiration dur- ing most of her High School years, is Doris Miller. She has proved herself a real tiller of the soil. Joyce Brandeberry is still cp to her old tricks. After a hard fight to gain fame, Joyce is now the premiere danseuse of her own show, currently appearing at the Capitol. And so ends the twentieth annual report on the Class of nineteen forty-five, compiled by my own untiring efforts to find and report gossip when it happens or beforeg and I remain your hard- working correspondent, Snoop-Scoop Pendleton, who modestly lays claim to the distinction of being the greatest rcpprter of all time. Mr. Braden was giving one of his famous UID tests in Speech and the class as a whole looked usually blank. Finally Mike Miller spoke up: Mr. Braden, he said, I don't believe that we've studied the material that you're giving us a test over. Oh, everything is right in the book, Mr. Braden laughed fiendishly. Yes, retorted Mike, but you make us keep our books closed! Howard Peneton was pacing the street at 3 o'clock one May morning when Two Gun Laney strolled by. Two Gun : What in the world are you doing out here at this time of the morning? Howard: Well, I forgot my key and I'm waiting for Margaret to come home to let me in. Page eighteen
