It ia 1960. Jane Taughinbaugh and Dorothy Hensel are sitting in the living room looking at the first year book that was printed at New Oxford High School. It la the year book of the Class of '42, and they were both graduates of that class. They have come to Dottle Bowser’s picture and are talking about how she and Anna Reinecker and Dottle Dietz have gotten a long contract with George Sheffer and his orchestra, to sing on Broadway. Harold Noel has become chief cook and bottle washer at Child’s Restaurant , operated by Gladys Miller and Treva Myers. Zilla Pope has become an Amy Air Hostess and is certainly making a hit with all the Army boys. They went to the Earl Theatre last night, now owned by John Yingling, who has hired Emma Jane Gable to sell the tickets for him. They have also seen in the paper that Anna Alwine has become a great Opera Star and is singing at the Metro- politan Opera House in New York. They are interrupted by a knock on the door, and it is none other than Clair Smith with the egg truck, selling eggs. He is telling them all the news; and he said that Grace Lawrence has bought the Cross Keys diner and is making out very well. Dot has received a letter from Lottie Kohler who is in Harrisburg teaching school. Lottie said that Mary Jane ildasin is sending her two children to her . school. Harry Baugher, who was one of the Future Farmers of America, has a hundred acre farm right outside of town and has made a big success of it. Mary Agnes Long Just came to New Oxford for a visit. She and Kitty have opened a dress shop in Baltimore. Ruth Krug took up a beauty culture course under the supervision of her aunt. She now has one of the best Beauty Salon’s in Hanover. Rosella Garber is an actress and is making a hit with everyone. Gladys Bowers is the new Home Ec. teacher and has proved to be a big success. She Is now In a good position to see the school bus arrive both morning and evening. Relda Miller has married and Is living at Green Springs. She has a boarding house and Richard Sheely who is now a detective story writer is boarding there. Evelyn Staub is the cook for Relda, and Richard certainly seems to enjoy the meals. Louise Vester is working In Washington. She is a private secretary and typist for the Woodward and Lathrop department store. Beryl Hoover is a basketball coach for N. 0. H. S. and the girls are the champions of the League. They have come to the last picture and it seemed so good to be able to think back about old times and they are glad they can keep In touch with them from time to time. -19-
