6-X Q.gn..'1 5H-,.gQ,,Q fs Ufam .CD 'lOf1gECy by ?Betty jfferrill and CDavid Sutherland The place is 42nd Street in New York City. The time--1950. The characters- a man and a woman. The woman is hurrying to catch a bus, when sud- denly she bumps into a man. She says Excuse me and, then, looks up. She stares a moment and then says-- B-You're-aren't you-yes, you are Sullyl S-Hello, Betty, I thought I knew you but I wasn't quite sure. B-Yes, it has certainly been a long time since I saw you. The last time was the night that we graduated. You didn't go to the reunion last month, did you? S-No. I wanted to go very much, but, oh, you know how it is. I couldn't get a leave. l'm in the navy now, you know. B-You are? What are you doing? S-I am chief electrician on a government submarine stationed in South Caro- lina. What are you doing? B-I'm in charge of the Children's Dept. of the New York Public Library. S-Are you doing anything tonight? I have two tickets to the Paramount Theatre. Gerrie Donnelly is there with his famous all-star band. I'll bet you can't guess who is there with him. George Babcock at tenor sax, and Ioe Kennedy at first trumpet: and, boy, are they hotl And I bet you can't guess who is taking tickets there? Why, it is our old friend Eleanore Messier, and Bill Rose is the head usher there. B-Before we go, have we time to go to the Bellevue Hospital? I promised Lois Harden that I would go to visit her. She is in charge of the children's ward. Theresa Pells and Barb Avery are there and we ought to be able to see one of them. Oh, yes, Ienny Polefka is head dietician there. S-What, my old friend Ienny? Gosh, we'1l have to go, now. And, we will even have time to lunch at Rae Sprague's and Hope Sagar's tearoom. We will surely get a good lunch because Dot Forbes is the dietician. B-Oh, by the way, now that we are on the subject of eating, did you know that Leon Pini has stepped into his father's place as head of the Lafayette House? And I saw somewhere that Dot David was to be his vocalist. S-No fooling! I always knew Leon would be a success some day. And Dot, well, the way she used to sing in the lunchroom, I knew she was headed someplace-that's not saying where of course. You wouldn't be knowing what Al Reilly is doing now, would you? B-Oh, sure, he has gone in with his father. He's super-salesman for the Evans Case. And he married that cute blonde he was so crazy about. S-Are you still living on West 42nd Street? B--No. I've a cute apartment in Brooklyn with Dot Riley. It is entirely furnished with furnishings from the wood-shop of Ed Chabot, Freddie Beaulieu, and Buck Dugas: and it was decorated by the firm of Fellows and Hennessy. You remember Ruth and Eleanor? And had you heard that Dot Riley has been working all summer in one of Billy Rose's swimming shows? Page Twenty-seven

t' ..f'rs31,CD , so S-No, that's swell. I saw Dave Lomasney going into Grand Central as I was coming out. I hadn't seen him since he left for Montana before we grad- uated. He was heading back there then. He has married one of those cowgirls. B-Oh, when I was home last time, I went to a tea at Eleanor Gendron's house. She and that fellow from Moran Street had just come back from their honey-moon. Ethel Lemaire is now a telephone operator. S-Hmm-not bad. B-And Dot Kennedy. Rose Tutelian is the girl at the main desk there. That's a nice suit that you have on, Sully. Is it custom made? S-Oh, that! I picked that up at Lumnah's second hand store. Funny isn't it what nice stuff you can buy for two bucks? I'm going to the ball game tomorrow. The Yankees are playing the Red Sox. It's ironical isn't it that Gordon Feid is playing for the Red Sox against Iohnny Rhude, the pitcher for the Yankees. Willie Darrah is manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers. I guess that his high school training is doing him some good. But--speak- ing of looking nice-that's a very nice coiffure you have. You didn't have it done at Vivian Marlow's did you? B-Yes, she's got a beautiful salon on Fifth Avenue. It's right next door to the Mutual Insurance Company which employs a lot of North Attleboro girls as typists. Dick Morris is there. He is the manager and he has Myrtle Hevey, Elaine Sullivan, Barbara Iohnson, Norma Malinowski, and Milly Roberts working under him. He has a partiality towards his old friends. Can you blame him? S-I am going to Radio City tomorrow night after the game. Gorham Underhill invited me up to see him. He's in television and is a big executive. He has his own program. Ieanette Glaiel is his announcer, and Edie Southway is doing alright with her renditions of the classics. Getting away from the classics, Carl Berglund is producing some pretty romantic numbers. The latest and best, Eleanore is dedicated to his Wife, that gal from Winthrop that he used to write those long and dreamy notes to. B-Speaking of romances and dreamy notes, Marion Welch is a good senior Councilor at Camp Ataloa in Maine, and that fellow from Maine she used to write to is right across the lake. I don't blame her for taking that job as a relief from the monotony of her school teaching position. S-We've quite a few famous people in our class. Ioe King, for example, has resigned his professorship at Harvard and has his hat in the ring as a presidential dark horse . His campaign manager is the gifted and arnbi- tious Helen Morrell. B-Did you know that Albert Cloutier is quite a photographer for Ladies' Home Iournal? He's been doing extremely well on the European situation and also on the Ipana tooth-paste ads. He uses Loretta Gagnon as his model for these. Maybe his success is partially due to the artistic influence of his assistants, Allen MacDonald and Ray Rogers. S-George Hayes is in European waters now. He joined shortly after I did. Page Twenty-eight
