We, the senior olass of 1949, being of reasonably sound mind, do hereby es- tablish our last will and testament upon our departure fro» N. C. S. Clare leaves his patience and undying sense of humor to future editors, he also leaves a marvelous example for any fellow to follow, Sherley leaves a number of teachers slightly bewildered and his oar to those who like to live dangerously Pat Wohlschlegel lesves her struggles with the French language to Leonard Guer- rette. Roy leaves. Mary walks alone. Paul leaves his everchanging disposition to anyone who can spare tbe time to pamper it, and after deep consideration bequeathes his football talents to Har- ry Fenton. Joanne leaves her ability to adjust herself to the moods of others to Rosie, but insists upon keeping her musioal talents for future use at Eastman’s. Madeline leaves to look for Ernest and leaves her shorthand for the birds! Charlie Swingle leaves some shrewd addresses to all fellow Casanovas and his magnetio personality to Bennie. Jean leaves her accumulated list of excuses for being tardy to Rita Hanggi. Tommy leaves for N. Y. C., with Eleanor in a rather distressed stste of mind. Martha leaves several people, but Jane Eichenberger in particular, with many rare memories . Clayton leaves without a backward glance .! Betty Jane leaves future cheerleading rules and regulations for Evelyn Gardner to contend with. George leaves his terrific sense of humor and unusual jokes to anyone who really has a desperate need for them. Charlie Ponko leaves dancing classes in utter disgust . John Braun leaves his forced fondness for oral topics to just anyone. Charlie Rex leaves his ability to argue for or against practically anything to Doris Lent. Millie Ball leaves the news staff a well used typewriter end ambles away------far away! Ruth leaves with a noticeable sigh of relief sfter glancing back upon that hec- tio subject, Latin. Frankie leaves the extension of his basketball reach to Bob Brooks. The senior olass of 1949, being fully aware of her fondness for this particular food, leave their portions of string beans, both green snd yellow, to Miss Haresign. • i In witness thereof, I hereby place my paw and seal on this last will and testament. 17

The other day I received a letter from my former class adviser, Miss Haresign,asking me to come to a gathering of the class of 9 at The Palms Club , now owned and operated by Frankie Reddout.He recently purchased the club after completing four years of college and five years of professional basketball. When I arrived at the club,I was greeted very heartily by the doorman who was none other than Charlie Rex. He told me all the rest of the class had arrived but Paul Schultz and Jean Heusner.lt seems that Paul,now Pres- ident of the Birds-Eye Snider Division had some how locked himself in one of the frozen foods lockers and they were still trying to get him out. I continued on and was no sooner inside, than I saw Sheri Woodard checking a number of coats at the check room.When I asked him to whom they all belonged, he told me. his wife (?), two sons, Birch and Hickory and a daughter Maple. (He really took the name Woody , seriously.) While talking to Sheri, I heard the loudest laughter coming from the dining hall,I knew at once who it was because,! could remember it from six- th period study hall, ten years ago. Yes, it was Martha,Betty and Madeline getting a big kick out of one of their Jokes.(?) The first one I saw as I went into the dining room was Martha, and guess what—she had three child- ren! It seems their names are Spikie, Mikie, and Ickie.They were happily throwing forks at each other across the table. Ducking forks as they flew by was Betty who is now a partner In The Gage Super Market on Cohocton Street. Also ducking forks was Madeline who looked a sight after being on duty at the hospital all night. (In the children's ward at that.) After saying hello to the girls,I Journeyed across the room and sat down at the table with Tom Wheat and Charlie Swingle,now Navel Officers in Uncle .Sam's Reserves.They told me that after retirement from the Navy they were going to start a Taxi-Service, between Naples and Wayland; that is if Tom didn't accept the office of Vice-President of the Lightening Express Inc. Clare Wallace Joined us later. He is now a successful road construc- tion engineer and is working in Africa on a thruway in the Belgian Congo. On asking Clare what Ruth and Roy were now doing (having noticed them at a neighboring table),I learned that Ruth was now a Medical Stenographer in the State Department,and Roy was giving public addresses on The U. S. and Russia. (H .'s still troubled, after that long debate in English Class in ,1+9.) As I looked around, I noticed Joanne Cornish Just arriving after fin- ishing a piano concert tour through the U. S. As I gazed out on the dance floor,I received my biggest surprise.There were two couples Jitterbugging and of all people, they were Clayt Proper and Charlie Ponko. (Who ever believed they had taken dancing classes so seriously.)The music was being furnished by George Wiley and his Neapoli- tans , and featuring Johnnie Braun and his magic drums. I noticed Pat and Millie talkihg at another table.I went over to talk to them and found that pat is busy working at Moore-Cottrell's, which is close to her home in Atlanta. Millie has been nicely settled on a little farm just outside of Middlesex for the past six years. After counting all the people,I found everyone was there but Jean.Oh! Ch! I spoke too soon. She Just arrived on a white stallion from her own
