Class Pr Taking time to relax after a grueling day at the television studio, I chanced to think about the class of 1952 and that little town of Middle- branch. Calling my sponsors, I informed them that I was taking a week's vacation to visit my alma mater and look up my old classmates. As I arrived in Middlebranch, my first thought was which classmate will I see first. I looked around and there was Bill Chidsey. He informed me that, at the moment, he was experimenting with a skinless potato which would save peeling. I found out that Janet Spall was winning great acclaim as the worldis largest midget. Bill also told me that it would be worthwhile to visit the Art Institute and view the paintings of Norma jean Hendershot. Stopping in at the restaurant, I spied Helen Drenta eating her lunch. She remarked that she held the world's record for taking dictation. Helen said that she planned to attend the opera at the auditorium that evening. The opera, en- titled Rosemary and Charliette, was starring two of our classmates, Rose Cavalier and Chuck Leach. 1 was told that Clyde Shorb had written the lyrics.

Bring 'em back dead Burfield is in Africa leading a large exploration into the wilds of the con- tinent. It seems Glenn Kamp is demanding more money for his pitching abilities on the Middle- branch Crows' baseball team. I bid john fare- well and stepped outside. Something whizzed by meg I was practically knocked off my feet. This was none other than Pat Day, who had just received acclaim as the first woman to finish in the 500. It seems she was showing Carolyn Cronin just how to handle a car. They stopped to chat for a few minutes and Carolyn stated that she had just arrived in town after having been on a world tour with her Campfire girls. Pat told me that Howard Dyer had engineered her car and was thinking of opening a garage to build and re- pair souped-up cars. They took off in a cloud of dust and I was left alone with my thoughts.
