I discovered, to my genuine surprise, that Eleanor Feigles, an old classmate and close friend of mine, had replaced the Brants and was now the efficient proprietress of the Chere. I ordered a coke and sat down to discuss old times with her. She was overjoyed at seeing me and demanded to know what I had been doing in the ten years since I had graduated from Muncy High. I told her that, since the Muncy Luminary had broadened its circulation from the rising little towns about Muncy, I was the inquiring reporter for Chippewa, Port Penn, and vicinity. Assist- ing Edith Painter, we had managed to bring out quite a Hourishing newspaper. The subject switched to our old graduating class. We were a little sad with the reminiscence, and Eleanor, as usual, was bubbling over with information. Clarence O'Donnell still had the monniker of Goof, she told me, and was now doing quite well with his new roller rink, situated south of Clarkstown, on the Clarkstown Boulevard. I was glad to hear that Goof is doing a thriving business in the ultra-modernistic structure. which excells all others of its type, within a ten mile radius. At Washington, Larue Bay is working for the government as an accountant. He looked up a former member of the class and it is reported that wedding bells will soon ring out for Larue and Louise Guimes. Charley Scott, still a magnificent specimen of manhood, is the lovable coach of the Muncy Football team. I am told he is busily training young Charles Jr. to run the length of the gridiron to a touchdown, and to folow in the footsteps the spec- tacular plays Charles Sr. used to run through for old Muncy High. William Pewterbaugh, the quiet, shy chap of the class, is the star member of Gordon Motter's Bachelor Club on Green Street. Marian Shields and Beryl Bennett combined their talents and opened the Shields and Bennett Incorporated, in New York last winter. Their business is interior deco- rating and dress designing with a bit of odd Cartooning thrown in on the side. Mari- an, however, built a fashionable three-story country home on the shores of Glade Run. It seems she still has a great affection for her home town. When business gets a little difficult, Marian journeys home for a quiet vacation. David Snyder replaced his father as postman. He fears another war and would rather wear out his feet on a mail route than die ingloriously of mumps awaiting call to active duty in Uncle Samis forces. We are interrupted in our discussion by the entry of Betty Walton into the tea room. She sits down with us for a moment. Dressed in a charming pair of woolen slacks, she calmly relates to us the story of her interesting life. She tells us that slie opened an institution for the insane near Montoursville and is happy to admit that many of her o,d classmates often call upon her, In fact, Robert Umlauf, that inter- nationally famous artist, is her most frequent visitor. The reactions of the inmates help him to figure out his latest painting. C227
