No, there's one left, a man named Mr. Dennis Whitcomb. Mr, Dennis Whitcomb! Why, I wonder if that's good ol' Denny, our classmate at Mt. Everett? I was just wondering the same thing. Look, here comes someone now-but it doesn't look like the Dennis we knew, not with that mustache--and look how stout he is! Pardon me , is this the plane going to--Butch Consolini! !--and no--it couldn't be-- Helen Love! ! It is Denny! How are you? My goodness, we hardly recognized you.

You're just as witty as ever, always good for a laugh. I don't think you ever got as many laughs as you did the two nights of our play, Aunt Cathie's Cat. Helen: And you--the big brave policeman who came to Aunt Cathie's rescue after she caught them two bugglers . Anthony: Nobody needs to come to Ginny's rescue now. She's married now, and doing well for herself running a beauty shop in South Carolina.

Z' Q, ' uiliiiti YW, H Dennis: Anthony: Helen: Dennis: Helen: Anthony Helen: Anthony: Dennis: Helen: Dennis: Anthony Helen: Anthony Dennis: Helen: Anthony Dennis: The bugglers aren't doing badly either. Pete is manager of the Pittsfield G.E. , and Carrie is the leading commercial artist at Lord and Taylor's in New York. Carrie and Winnie always were the artists of the class. Winnie made good use of her talent too, she's an assistant to Ceil Chapman, the famous fashion designer. By the way, I ran into Zee Card when I was in Spain last week. She's a high school teacher there and really enjoys her work. Weren't Sally Preston and Carol Keresztes going to be teachers too? I hear Sally is an English teacher at Skidmore College: and Carol has moved back to New York to teach elementary school there. Lucy is a teacher, too: she's teaching Physical Education back at Mt. Everett. Whatever happened to the three that were going into the Navy after graduation: Bill Warner, Bob Guidi and Bob Pautot? Oh, they've teamed up together and own the Triple B Steamship Line. They've hired two other former classmates as secretaries, Toni Hotchkiss and Shirley Cartinelli. Speaking of secretaries, what became of the other girls who were planning to do that type of work? Well, recently I stayed at the Pountainebleau in Florida and was quite surprised to see Maria and Cecilia Morandi employed as receptiortists. They went to Florida soon after graduation and said they'd never move back up north. Guess where Cathy Johnson is working? Where? I saw her in Boston the other day , and she told me she lives there and is a private secretary for the vice-pre sident of the Boston Beanery, Inc. The last I heard, Phyllis Boardman was working with comptometer machines in Springfield , and Barbara Gardner is working in the newly established Sheffield Savings Bank. Oh, and Diane Cummaro is living in Hollywood. She married the late st movie rage, Elvis Iones. They now own four pastel Fords . All our classmates did pretty well for themselves. Did you know that Dave recently purchased the Great Barrington Airport and Gary is working as head in structor? That's greatl I must make it a point the next time I'm near there to drop in and see them. I haven't been up that way in a long time.
