Page Six 1936 Senior Class Prophecy Miami, Florida 1209 N. Fourth St. May 6, 1946 Dear Ruth: Well, we’ve certainly earned the name of hitch-hikers: Gladys Fisher, who is taking a two-year vacation from teaching athletics at U. of O., and I who wanted to be out in the open after seven years as a student and graduate nurse, were figuring our “shoe” expense. The last two years were spent hiking across the continent, and 1 honestly wish I had traveled by motor, except for the one fact that I met nearly all of my classmates of 1936, which would have been impossible if I had gone in style. We started from Pasadena, California, on June 2, 1944, and arrived in Miami, Florida, May 5, 1946. Just after we had left Pasadena and were hiking toward Oakland, a big Cadillac 16 passed us and then stopped. As we came abreast, we found the occupants to be the former Ruth Miller and her chauffeur. Ruth is now Mrs. Nelson-Dodd of Oakland. She insisted that we accompany her to her home. While we were there she called a meeting of her club—I say “her club” because she is president of an uplift society now—and we were invited to attend. We left Oakland and hiked to Eugene, Oregon, now a much larger city than of the former days when we were at O.H.S. and thought it such a lark to go to Eugene to spend an evening. The small dance pavillion, Willamette Park, is now a very large place. We spent an evening there in hopes of finding some old acquaintances. The guest artist of the evening was Paula Wilson. She is making a tour through the Americas with the famous Johnny Johnson and his Orchestra. We left Eugene and went up the coast and into the Tillamook dairy coun- try. Early one morning a dairy truck stopped and the driver asked us to ride. Gladys recognized him as Charles Wert. He was driving for the regular driver, who was vacationing for a few days. “Chuck” now owns a large dairy ranch. After spending a few days making hay at the ranch, we went to a facial specialist to get our complexions repaired. We were referred to a ij ,'lKtle thinking it would be Marjorie Wilkinson of Oakridge. rarahop and specializes in the removing of freckles. '. estination was Seattle, where we were treated to an airplane r-mail pilot, John Burt. It was the same John Burt who 1 with us. He took us to Montana. While there we went Rings to mail a few cards to friends. Two of the cutest ears old were there. You’ll never guess who! Georgia r came in—they were her boys. Of course we visited her -sner, who owns a large wheat ranch near Billings. In the fternoon she received a Hi-Breeze and in it were some articles Alyce Orr, who is traveling in Europe and writing magazine hile there we heard LeRoy McAtee give his famous sales talk, Jnm the world’s record for being able to speak the most words in written articles which THE □ A K A
