Lady lrarnae Andrews was arnong t.he spectators also -- the former Iramae Ray. A year after Iramae graduated she met Lord Chancellor Robert Wayne Andrews. He was traveling in the United States for an unknown reason. The following summer they were married and returned to England. The-5 reside in the White Castle in London, England. They now have three children: Norris Dee 5, Norwood 4, and Robert Jr. 3. As Iramae and I were standing there talking, who should come up and start talk- ing to us but Vernal Leathers. Vernal looked the same as ever, only of course a little older. He is married now to the former Charlene Travis of North Salem and has two little girls -- Gloria 6, who is starting school this winter, and Charlene, who will be four in July. He owms a large horse ranch at Southern Hadley. I asked him if he had heard anything from Keith Gordon. He said he had married a few years after graduating from high school to Miriam Roth, formerly of North Salem, and that they have seven children -- five girls and two boys. Keith owns the Stock Yards at New Maysville and is making very much progress. When I sat down, I noticed someone holding a red and blue pennant that read 1949, so I went down to see who it was. When I stepped down on the row behind her I saw it was Marcia Kisner. We started talking and she told me when she grad- uated from high school she entered Nurses' Training at Barnard Medical Center, After graduating from there she started nursing in the Killem Hospital where she nursed for almost three years, but her attentions were drawn away from nursing when Bill Scott of Danville proposed to her. They are now living in Danville where he is a professor at Canterbury College. They have a set of twins. In all this excitement I had nearly forgotten about the game I had come to see. The score was now 13 to 7 in favor of University of Southern Salem with only two seconds left to play. The famous team had scored another victory. As 1 started for the parki.ng lot I heard a commotion. I saw two men arguing over some matter of cars. As I moved closer I recognized Jim Hiclunan. Beside hirn was his wife, the former Bonnie Frazier of North Salem, and their daughter Jacquie. Mr. Hick- man was having trouble with his car it seemed, but finally gave up long enough to tell me that he is now State Senator. After graduating from college he entered pol- itics where he is to this day, He hopes some day to become President, As I started for my car I realized that this day had been a day worth remember- ing. JUNIOR-SENIOR RECEPTION The Junior-Senior Reception was held in Indianapolis on April ZZ, 1949. The banquet was held at Ramsey's, 1435 North Meridian and after the banquet we at- tended the stage play, I' Remember Mama , at the Civic Theatre, The speech of welcome was given by Don Ward, president of the junior class, and the response was given by Jirn Hickrnan, president of the senior class. The place cards for the banquet were miniature graduation caps made around mint cups with removable tops. At the side of each plate were flowers and a mem- ory booklet. In the center of the table were twelve balloons with small prophecies on the inside for each of the twelve seniors. The prophecy for the senior class and the will of the senior class were read and a very nice evening, which we hope may long be remembered and cherished, was enjoyed by all. 13
