L. ' I if Glau You see, it all started when I was very young, about one hundred I guess. Oh, don't look so surprised! That isn't old for a guardian X but since you don't know much about guardian angels I'll go on with my story. Oh, it was such a wonderful day in the celestial city, for it was the day that I was given my first assignment, and what an assign- ment it was! I was so excited that I could hardly keep from flapping my sanctified wings right off their hooks. I was to be the guardian angel for the NAPS Senior Class of '48Aon the planet Earth, of course. It was a mystery to me why such a glorified honor was bestowed upon me. I couldn't figure it out unless it had resulted from keeping my halo on straight, my wings on smooth, and my sandals shining, fI've A always been a very conscientious angelj. Well, I set about my task enthusiastically, determined to be the best guardian angel a senior l, M class ever had, and! was pretty good even if I do say so myself. I l f? 'Q K LGE ' watched over each girl and turned in my annual report on her, but I, now I have discovered an unforgivable mistake! I have failed to hand in my report for 1968 on the NAPS Senior Class. There is only one thing to do, and that is, pack my belongings and make an immediate and quick trip to Earth. In fact, I think I'll leave now. Could that be VIRGINIA ANNE TATUM I see? Why she's running for president of the U. S. ! She really has followed up her political lead. I'll go down a bit further and maybe I can pick up a little gossip. Well, sure enoughff I hear that BOOTS WEAVER is a retired Power's model, and was a good one too, in her day. Well, if it isn't professor NIMMO HOWARD. The Prof. is conducting an experiment in the splitting of electrons. She'1l probably be another Lavoisier. Perhaps if I hurry, I'll get to the city auditorium in time to hear the world's renowned EVELYN HALL give her lecture on Spanish, in Spanish. She always did take such an active part in Spanish class at NAPS. I'll scan through this newspaper and maybe I'll learn the whereabouts of some other NAPS alumnae. Well, what do you knowfANN ARMISTEAD is editor of Georgia's Gossip of Gorgeous Gals and here is an article by MARIAN PERSONS, Americas Ace Foreign Correspondent . Why there's MARGARET MULLINS, a taxi-driver, and chauffeuring NAPS Students from the school to Dusty's Delux Inn on Figbranch Avenue. If it isn't too far I'll look up GLORIA WEATHERS' house. I understand she's an old married woman now, and spends most of her time singing lullabies to her Quin-tup- lets. Those blond hairs of NANCY BLAKE are beginning to turn a little grey. I guess being house-mother at the NAPS B. D. is too strenuous a job. ZOE ANN WINDHAM has become famous since her book was published. It's called How to Stop Biting Your Fingernails in Ten Easy Lessons . It's really surprising how things turn out. For there is PAT HALEY, teaching acro- batics to the children of old Napsites. I hear that DODIE HAMMOND is really 'hep' to all the new tunes, but what disc jockey wouldn't? REBECCA POWELL made her first million as a hair stylist. I understand she is working on her latest called A Copious Collection of Colors for your Coiffeur . BETSY FORMAN has become a great writer and critic. They say she is the Shake- speare of the 20th Century. Another in the professional world is JEAN SKENDER. She turned out to be a very good veterinarian. If I drift down to the Sigma Chi house at Tech, I'm liable to find JOAN JORDAN. Good fraternity, good housemotherwwhat more could I ask for'? Don't tell me that is FRANCES BOLDING! What's that creation she has on top of her head? I guess a sombrero topped with mayonnaise is relatively sane for a hat de- signer. It seems that NETTIE HUME has formed a one-man company in Hollywood. I imagine she stays pretty busy being actor, producer, director, and writer. My, such talent Z I ! MARY THOMPSON is really doing her share in helping humanity. She has opened a consulting department and specializes in Advice to the Lovelorn . 26 ,, ' ,,l.... ,T1 1 ,-QI Y '47 f' S- F -if - Y , K, i if 4 YR 1' - 5:-1- ., . , ,- 1 -11, ,filf lf 2 - 'f' fl ns? g 'H Tqmfe- f.f, ' 4 5 1, .
