THE CAINS ENTERTAIN FORMER CLASSMATES Montpelier, .luly 20, 1959- After an exciting day at the Montpelier races, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Cain, the former Joy Nell Love, gave a party at their chicken ranch, honoring Miss .loan Denton, whose horse took first place. All their classmates were invited. First to come chugging up the lane in their horseless carriage were Miss Lillie Albertson and Mr. H. G. Morgan, former sponsors of the class, wearing super-de luxe black derbies. Next to arrive were Mr. and Mrs. Charles Stepp, the former Jeanice Cale, with their twins, Charles and Charlene. Donnie Brown, famous artist at the Metropolitan Art Gallery in New York, flew in to display his recent portrait of Peggy Bcdwell, a Powers model. Jesse Rogers, the new ag. teacher at Montpelier High, arrived with Johnnie Herrin, local Oldsmobile dealer. Miss Pat Schuller came with her boss, Dick Sutton, senator for District 5, and Miss Charlene Fisher, a concert pianist, canceled her evening performance just to attend the party. 'Dr. Clyde Bennett and his nurse, Miss Wava ,lean Ford, were on hand in case anyone should catch coccidiosis from the Cains' chickens. Roy Bell, producer of the new motion picture hit, NA Day in M. H. S. starring Wilma Reff, came in just as Phyllis Melick, who recently took over the Morton Downing radio show, appeared on the television screen. While the guests were admiring the new hair style of .loan Clamme, styled by the famous beautician Delores Leech, the Cains received a telegram from ,lim Bedwell, stating that he would be unable to attend because of spring round-up on his Texas ranch, and a call from Rita Jester Love to say that they could not come because they could not find a baby sitter. Paula Berrier, Luella Huntzinger, and Alice Barrington were also a bit late after selling their famous Pa-Lu-Al's thot dogsj at the racesg and Robert Russell, late as usual, entered just in time for refreshments. The refreshments were secured from former classmates. Bob Kreischer, manager of Russell's Dairy, supplied the milk. fThey don't call him 4'Slim any more.j Mr. and Mrs. Bill Cromer, owners of the Three C Store fCromer Candy Counterj in Trenton, furnished the fudge, and Margaret Bamseyer baked a large cake, which was used for the center piece of the table. For entertainment, Miss Julia Dodds, who recently won the State Oratorical Contest, delivered a powerful address on the subject of Parimutuel Betting. Then the famous dancers, Barbara Neff, ,Ioan Sills, and Sharon Ort, from the Dew Drop Inn in Hartford City, performed to the accompaniment of ,lack Gilbert's orchestra, the Gilly Goofers. Eugene Caylor, manager of Keith's Theater in Indianapolis, invited every- one at the party down to a free show. The party ended just as the roosters were crowing. Page fifteen
