Des Moines and supper in Chicago, Illinois. Jerry told me that quite a few of our class lived in Chicago (they must have taken a fancy to it the day we went to Chicago in our Senior year.) So the rest of the evening we spent looking them up. Janie Frisinger had married a millionaire she had met while going to I.U. Phil Payne owned the Hauf-brau Industry. Margie Gaerte after marrying Flash Gordon had moved to Chicago and was now owner of the Chicago White Sox. Rolf Hunter had become a Minister of the largest Baptist Church in Chicago. The next morning it took up just a few hours to drive to North Webster. The sign outside the city (yes I said city) limits said population 12.000. People, people, people. I told the others that I would meet them that night at the Yellow Banks Hotel. The first place we went into was “The Blue Room” for a refresher and to hash over old times. The star performer was Pat Eberly now called The Atom Gal. After seeing her performances we started on the rounds. First we went into the Hudson Agency where I found Faye Pearson. She had married Bill Gross who now owns the largest Hudson Business in the world. After visiting for an enormous big house with a large barn and other buildings around it. They told me this big farm was owned and operated by Dean Keck. After graduation he had gone to Purdue and worked up to this big farm. I then told them I would like to visit the school. When we arrived at the schoolhouse we went immediately to the gymnasium where we found Barry Baker coaching. He then took us into the cafeteria for a cup of coffee, there standing behind the counter was Joan Smith. She said she had been working there for twenty years and had advanced to head cook. She was doing very good for herself. The time had come to start getting ready for the reunion so the boys took me to my hotel. The time passed fast and I was on my way to the Yellow Banks Hotel. When I arrived everyone was there at least I thought there was, but I was told things wouldn’t start for a half hour yet as they were waiting on Julia Durham to arrive. Her plane had been delayed. Judy was flying all the way from South America to be here. She had married the “Coffee King of the World” she finally arrived, the program started and I had never enjoyed myself more than I did that night. Jerry Engle was assistant coach at North Webster. When I speak for myself I mean no one else than Bob Dishman.
