KRAZIE AND KWILT STREETS Having nothing else to do on a warm day in May, 1945, this card brought me to the room of Madam Kristle Gaiser.

The one question which predominated my mind was: NVhat is the class of '45 doing in '55? Silently I seated myself opposite her, and in answer to my question, here is what she told me.
