May 21, 1962 Lehman Manor Cross Street Newcomerstownr, Ohio Dear Melva: Not long ago in your letters you asked about the class of 1952. I have put off writing about it until after the reunion, which was last night. We all had a grand time, and such an elaborate party! I'm quite sure you would not have known half the people there. It was held in Kelleyls Colonial Cartwheel. You know, Melva, that I would not have gone there otherwise, but I just couldn't miss this reunion. You should have seen Mary Ann's dress. There must have been a small fortune in diamonds on it, and she made all of 'her money in that place! Senator Dennis Welch was toastmaster, and introduced the members, who in turn told what they had done in the past ten years. Ronald Vogt, the world famed wild game hunter, made quite a long speech on his exploits in Peoli. The night club has a lovely nursery where mothers may leave their children well cared for. Leaving their children there while they enjoyed the program were Sara Cummins Phillips, Mary Schlupp Tyler, Shirley Stewart Nugen, and Marjorie Addy Carruthers. As we looked around the table we saw Allen Hennis and behind bandages was Dan Everhart. As you know, these fellows are tied for the world's racing championship. It seems Dan had a little accident the other day but came to the reunion anyway. Crooner Clarence Johnson and orchestra leader Keith Dennis entertained the group. Odis and Ruby Lee Dansby, famous dancing team, and Shirley Fillman, songstress, also performed. Donald Best and Gary Jurin, professional football players, flew in from Guernsey for the event. Also flying in from the East was Jerry Beiter, famous painter, who was exhibiting his art in New York City. At 9:00 o'clock station WLW QVVatson-Little-Wolffj gave a salute to the class of '52, Coming up from the winter quarters in Florida was David Daredevil Ross, who is with the Ringling Bros. Circus, with his L'Death on VVheels motorcycle act. TWENTY FIVE
