World War. Talking to them were Ray Byrne, Don Connacker, Larry McLean, George Ruhberg, and Tom Sutherland, all with women who were not from Mon- roe. fProbably uhussiesi' that used to go to Central.J Senator Tom Fleming just came in. With him was his private secretary, Margaret Cadwell, and her assistant, Donna MrCarty. Helen Landis is now head librarian at Monroe, with Ruth Mansfield and Jane Kilroy as her assistants. We heard that John Palewicz and Jim Clark finally found Valley City, North Dakota and decided to settle down there. When passing to the dining hall we noticed signs, made by the Amos and Conway Sign Making Co. fBernadette and BeulahJ, informing anyone who is in need of interior decorating that Charles Pence and Charles Maty are the men for the job. On our arrival at the dining hall, dinner was served. We later dis- covered that Gladys Anderson, Agnes Avedision, Helen Karasawa, Eleanor Vincelli and Ruth Smith did the cooking. You remember the old saying Too many cooks spoil the brothn-well, you draw your own con- clusions about the meal. We noticed that Jim Wilfred was talking vigorously to James Gosselin, the new manager of the Randolph Pharmacy. We later found out that he was trying to sell one of his old used cars to James. After dinner, the master of ceremonies asked us to remain in our seats. The lights were dimmed, drums rolled, and the spotlight shone on Helen Mansfield, Dorothy Nash, Lois Komro, Marian Krieger, Shirley Parker, and Bette Cincera as they showed us the latest dance steps. The drummer was Harry Dolan, the piano player was Tom Frederickson. Brother, were they hot! We were then entertained by Jerome Hamilton, Donald Janssen, Lowell Hesse and Warren Holmgren, who are members of an internationally-famous choir. Well, well, look who just came in when the party is almost over-it's Milton Johnson. His excuse this time was, The wife wouldn,t let me outll' Poor Milton. Others who were late were Cecelia Mandel, an eleva- tor operator who has had many ups and downs during her life, and Mildred Kubik, a telephone operator. There was a little game of tiddly winks going on over in a corner, so we naturally had to see who was in it. There we found Gordon Woessner of Greene En- graving Co., George Wiede, principal of Monroe, and Charles Koutek, Superintendent of St. Paul Schools. The game soon broke up because Gordy got mad and took his tiddlies home. After the game we listened to Mary Ann Smith, the great lecturer, and the famous authors, Marlyn Saver, Jeanette Schneider, Carol Echwandt, and Phyllis Rice, and also the weatherman, Robert O'Keefe. Robert didnit stay with us long, though, because we all kidded him about 9 out of ro times he had been wrong about the weather. Jeanne Teitscheid and Shirley Erickson are now working in the post office answering dead letters. fWhy, I never knew dead letters could talk.J The post office also employs Monica Goiffon and Betty Kratovil as Postal Packin' Mammasf, Mary Larsen takes pictures for the one-cent stamps and Jack Weber poses for her. Although it was not well-known, the ambition of Ed Faeth and Donald Field was to travel and see the country. Well, it has been fulfillled-they are both working as truck drivers on a trans-continental freight line. Monroe is well represented in sports, for Shirley Lillistrom and Ruth Mangan are tennis champions, Lorraine New is a skiing ace, Helen Tierney, the diving and swimming star, Lorraine Sarka, an ice-skater, and Delores Tamble, a physi- cal fitness teacher at Central. We forgot to mention it before, but the host- esses of the evening are Margaret Califano, Ruth Kurka, Betty Daeffler, and Jeanne Reher, the four most talked about society figures in Amer- ica. Just as all good things must come to an end, so did this evening. At the close of this meeting we want to extend to all an invitation to attend our next meeting which will be held June 15, 1984. Donit forget the date. If you cannot attend, please send your grandchildren in your place. CLASS WILL WE, THE SENIOR CLASS OF 1944, BEING OF SOUND MIND AND BODY, DO HEREBY WILL AND BEQUEATH THE FOLLOWING: ALAN ALBERG to all, a wish for the best of luck and happiness. JOHN ALSEN to Bob Burnett, my locker on first floor. It opens on the fourth attempt. It closes with a good kick.

Y Kok fx.. I fnorW,'i5,,, The 1945 Seniors, the present Juniors, are indeed an active group. On March I7 they, in co-operation with the Student Council, gave a St. Patriclc's Day Dance in the gym. Shamroclcs and green and white streamers made it a typical Irish setting. Charles Amann and his band supplied the music. On April 28, Monroe Day, the Class had charge of an assembly at which they displayed some of the school talent. They thereby carried on a custom of the school. Ever since Monroe has been in existence, the students have celebrated the bi-rthday of the school near the birthday of its name sake, James Monroe. After the assembly they sold green and white Monroe pennants. The last event of the year was the junior-Senior Prom, an elaborate affair, which was held on May 29. bl ' .IUNIORS f' , jde C4454 of 45 Kathleen Flynn, Robert Arthun, Angelyn Bastyr, John Peterson.
