CLASS OF1935 Q5 Class Prophecy NEW' YORK TIBIES JH llze news' flzaflrjfz to print November 8, 1950. NIEMBERS or CL.-iss or 1935 or THE C. D. S. Dear Sirs: This letter may seem impertinent, but please do not take it as such, 1 have been in close con- tact and have become a warm friend ofone of your class members, john Cranshaw. As you probably all know, Mr. Cranshaw has put on for the last few seasons many hit-shows, such as There's A New Son, Too Good to Be True, and many others. ln our friendship he has often remarked that this or that prominent man was of the class of 1935 of the Country Day School. Thus, 1 have thought it would make a good article for our Sunday magazine section, if I could find out to what your class owes its success. Mr. Cranshaw has related to me many amusing stories of his last year at school. As 1 under- stand it, your class was not an ordinary class. It took more interest in outside activities than most othersg on the athletic tield it excelledg and in the class room it always stood as a body against all threats of the punning faculty. There must be some line quality in the class that has made it so successful. I appeal to you to put aside your cloaks of modesty and pour forth your advice to the Youth Ot America' Yours truly, THE EDITOR. Dear Sir: Brookline Poorhouse. I am very happy to reply concerning my phenomenal rise to success. You all know I did not go to collegeg but, as my father wished, Ijoined him in his paper-business. My training at good old C. D. S. gave me the stamina and prestige-to contend successfully with all my opponents in the paper bag world. The social background of my alma mater was also ot the greatest benefit in business. There is one fault, however, 1 would like to complain of in your scandal sheet. The weather reports are always wrong. If worst comes to worst, 1 would like to obtain the position as weather man on your paper. As ever, JOHN ALFRED ANDREW.

Q6 COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL Dear Editor: Clearview, N. H. I was very glad to receive your letter attempting to discover the reason for our class's success in life. I married a New Hampshire farmer's daughter of pioneer stock during my third year at Dartmouth. I then entered my father's ice business and settled down to raising seven children. I still maintain that the sale of ice is increasing in spite of electric refrigeration. I firmly believe that I obtained all my personality and ability to cope with the problems of ice at C. D. S., and not at college. Sincerely yours, VVILLIAM EATON BENNETT. My Dear Sir: Bronx, N. Y. As you have already told of my success in your letter, I will omit the details of my present life. My advice to American youth is to have many outside activities while in school. I obtained my firm foundation of stage 'experience under Mr.iHoward Wiles, a man of most unusual knowledge,- in the C. D. S. Dramatic Club. My appreciation of feminine beauty I developed in the wilds ol XYaban, which is now most thickly settled. Still your friend, JOHN CRANSHAVV. Mr. Editor: Hiddenpark, Mass. I am much complimented at receiving your letter. Your news of Mr. Cranshaw Q I despise you j makes me feel most grievous. Being modest, I will only say that the majestic school on Nonantum Hill rounded me out, both physically and mentally, giving me strength to succeed in the contracting business. Incidentally, business is booming in spite of the Democrats and Nugh Hawn. Yours, MIM DADDARIO. Dear Editor: Out of the Vilay, Me. I profited much from numerous beneiicial contacts at the Country Day School. Hockey at school gave me a fine start for my professional hockey career. This year we hope to bring back the Stanley cup to Boston and the Bruins, where it belongs. I owe my extra strength in the pinches to Ducky YYucky cigarettes. Sincerely, BOB GORHAM.
