I 950-FUTU RESQUE As I boarded the M.H.Sr. transport plane at the County Airport, I was surprised to see Robert Kroner and Warren Wenner enter the pilot's cabin. Cecelia Wagner and Dorothy Bertram, the hostesses, told me they were the best pilots on the line and had won many honors in flying. Since I had about fifteen minutes before leaving Pittsburgh, I decided to have ra chat with Cecelia and ask her about our former classmates. But Cecelia interrupted, Anne Pavkovich, I thought you were afraid :of planes. Now you're flying to New York. What for? Well, I'm going up to attend a special meeting of the managers of the company I work for. You know, Robert Harkins is the president of this organiziar tion and Wallace Miller is the vicefpresident while Frank Svach and a few others are his managers in different parts of the country. But tell me what you know. Well, this man entering the plane is Professor Ralph Boettcher. He's Math teacher at the same university where Bill Schiefelbein teaches bugology and- But Cecelia was cut off because the plane was filled with Oh's and Ah's as Kathryn Hunter, the famous movie star, entered the plane. She was followed by her staff: Dorothy Steininger, secretary, and Bernard Flowers, press agent. I thought Kate wouldn't recognize me but she did and immediately came over to talk over old times. But I soon had her telling me about Hollywood and I was surprised to find the number of our class that had 'become famous in Hollywood. Kathryn Auth was writing scenarios and Vivian Mohr, dialogue. All this time Robert Pfischner has been enjoying success with his autognaphs which he collected early in the thirties. iMarie Kovacic was building a career anound herself with her acting, while Edna I-Ioak has won the Academy Award for her great -performances and Viola Schmitt's talpfdancing has brought her much praise and ovation. But enough about Hollywood, Anne. How about Millvale? Kathryn asked Why, haven't you heard? Eddie Ruzomberka is coach at Millvale High and Paul Pfischner is Millvale's most popular doctor. His cousin, Bill Pfischner, is a famous lvaiwyer in Pittsburgh and Allen Kremmel -is an absentfminded Professor at Columbia University. And do you know that Mary Sebetich is the girls' basketball coach at the Mt. Troy Recreational Center? Oh! But we're taking off. I'll see you later, Kathryn. And with that I walked to the main cabin for my trip to New York. As I left the plane, I got into a cab and headed for the Waldorf Astoria. To my amazement I found that Sammy Hoak was chief chef and Eugene Riley had his orchestra on the top floor while Morris Sadwick was thrilling the crowd with his nimble fingers on the piano. Meanwhile, in the lobby, Irma Maire had her desk in a secluded corner with a sign :above it which said, Public Secretary . Page Twenty-five
