That night they went to the biggest night club in town which was naturally under the management of G. A. Holden. “I think Glen has been planning a career in the night club business ever since our Junior Prom. Wayne said. Glen assured them that actually he had done just that. He informed them that he had recently engaged two new acts. Rosalie Adams being the torch singer in one of them and Ethel Scheve a partner in a sophisticated dance team. Glen added that both acts were big successes. Wayne and Rosemary, having told Glen of all they had learned concerning their classmates were delighted to receive further information from Glen when he said that Margaret Nelson had been appointed court reporter for the Supreme Court. Following a short reunion with Ethel and Rosalie. Rosemary and Wayne excused themselves, explaining that they intended to make an early start for Hollywood the next morning. Upon their arrival in the filmland. Rosemary and Wayne immediately phoned Doug Miller, who had achieved stardom by taking the place of Costello in the Abbot and Coslello team, and was now living happily in a spacious California home. He invited the Robbins family to spend their stay at his home. Who should open the door but Richard Rice! Sitting around a blazing fireplace that evening Wayne and Rosemary again related the experiences of their trip. Doug mentioned that Jo Lawrence was doing very well as a dress designer for the larger studios . They all fell silent for a time thinking of the changes the years had wrought since high school days. Wayne summed up their reflections as he broke the quiet by saying that the class of 45 had really made a showing for old Mac High and that there would never be another like it.
