j- rophecif Calate Of 1951 Here it is June 1, 1961, and we are preparing for an airplane ride, which will take us to Mount St. Joseph Academy for the reunion of the Class of 1951. As we fasten our belts for the takeoff, we begin to wonder what all our classmates have been doing since graduation. Then, as the airliner soars into s p a c e , the glittering stars are so c 1 o s e we can actually make out the images in them of our classmates. Here's what they revealed to us. The McCarthy Twins, Aileen and Kath- leen, are models. They are keeping people guessing as to which twin has the TONI. Ernie Chugchug Zambon, profession- al football star, is envoying mail for na- tionwide fan clubs under the leadership of Barbara Carr, Elizabeth Duffy and Pat Martel. Jean West, Alicia Battles and Nancy Creed, a top dancing trio have just returned to New York from Europe where they thrilled audiences with their spectacular routines. Bert Patry leads his own orchestra, The Sweet Potato Tooters ; the theme song-- I Dream of Jeannie With the Light Brown Hair. Carnegie Hall, New York City, has just opened its doors to the largest audience of its history--to welcome Joyce Preedom, in her professional piano debut. Jerry Valente is the crooner of the age; hear him on the Hit Parade. Dolores DeForge boasts the Nobel Prize for her latest novel: How To Take Life Easy In Ten Easy Lessons. (She almost gave it up, once.) Pete Crowley, now national golf champ, is chief golf instructor at Vassar College. The mounting enthusiasm over the sport causes us to wonder if it is really golf or Pete that is the attraction. Always an ear for news, Jean Bove fi- nally made the staff of the New York Daily News. She writes the famous column Who's Who! Well, here's somebody who benefited from that Monitor exercise. Here's Pat Mangan superintendent of policewomen in New York City. Nicely settled in their hometowns of Castleton and Brandon, respectively, Emily Woodbury and Marie Lillian Quesnel keep their townships before the public by editing colums in the Rutland Herald telling all the interesting events that happen in a person's life such as: births, marriages, deaths, etc. Carmen Floresvillar, popular always as a dancer, has the elite patrons of the Copa Cabana eating out of her hands. Richard Knight, manager of the Club ad- vises that tables are well ordered for the next six months. Joe Healy, Singing Governor of Ver- 25
