Znafflwy In the year of 1977 I Dorothy Lear saw my greatest ambition come into being.l I was going to start my trip around the world. I thought it over and decided to visit each of my old classmates. As I boarded my jet airliner at the big airport which had been built in Amsterdam, I had the shock of my life to see Mickey Smalley board the jet as pilot. Mickey always said he would rise to greater heights! When I landed in Paris, I decided to get something to eat. I walked into the CAFE DE LA PAIX and saw Kenneth Carmichael as chef. He told me that he had risen to this position after marrying the boss's daughter. That night I decided to go to a french movie house for a show. Who should appear on the stage as leading lady but Wilma Harris? She had finally risen above her strong competitor Dina Dors. At the Louve, I saw the famous portrait of Marilyn Monore which Darles Warren had painted. It seems it is becoming more popular than the famous Mona Lisa. While walking down a street in England, I meet Gary Lancaster. He told me that Doris Shelton and he were now married and living in England. He had been given the position of ambassador by Donna Leister who had become the first woman president of the United States. In Genmany, I saw Linda Kay Wheeler entertaining the soldier boys with a fan dance. Although Linda had married the general, she still had retained her figure after having her six lovely children. I stopped at Switzerland to see Rose Marie Swain. She had married Bob Lear after graduating and they were now running a skiing resort at Zurich. My next stop was in Africa where I saw Alberta Case. She had gone down there to teach the natives how to jitterbug. She had married Charles Smith and they had six little Smiths. She informed me that I could find Rita Rae Thornbrugh in South America. She had married a rich plantation owner and had three servants to wait on her. While in Australia, I went to see Phyllis Van Benthusen. She was the owner of a large sheep ranch which she ran herself. She had twenty hired hands, all which had proposed to her, but Phyllis was determined to stay single. I ,met Gary Zellmer coming down the streets of India on the back of an elephant. I could hardly recognize him on account of his turban. Gary had come to capture elephants from the Indian jungles for the Barnum k Baily circus. In Hawaii, I met Alberta Tillery. She told me she had married her soldier and that they now ran a farm where they produced pineapples. While coming home on the UNITED STATES, I had the pleasure of meeting Adelbert Beebe who was a skipper on it. Whe had a long chat together during which a little jet propelled tub went by with Jack Van Slyke and Milton Clark in it. Adelbert told me that Jack and Milton had been the only one crossing the Atlantic in 15 minutes and 10 seconds and were now trying to beat their previous record. During my stop in Mexico, I saw Fred Shelton in the arena fight- ing a bull. Fred had married a little senorita and she had persuaded Fred to become a matador.
