, Now that house, encircled by the white picket fence, is where the Mayor lives. Sure, he s another one of our class, Delvan Decker. He married Pat Sidle about five years ago. That road straight ahead goes out to the snazziest DUDE RANCH in the world! Vera Carrigan and Paula Champagne both loved horses, so they went into partnership. Their ranch is even talked about on Mars I Just beyond their ranch is Clyde Beebe’s chicken farm. We always knew that he would raise chickens. Well, folks here we are at the school. Sorry, I can’t tell you more.” ‘Bye, Louie. See you later. You’re coming to the reunion aren’t you? Of course. “As we enter the school we are greeted by the Principal. Paul Pelham and his private secretary, Beverly Harrington. We are having a chat about the good old days, when we are interrupted by three gentlemen. The tall one with the curly hair is Art Covert, of course. What are you doing now? No, you can’t be. A plantation owner in the deep South! What about you George? Long time, no-see. Professor of Mathematics at the college! We might have known George Van Buskirk would be a math teacher. This isn t Douglas Aber, is it? Well, well. So you’re the swoonatra of ‘FOO’S INN . Well, we’ll see you again before dinner but we must meet the rest of the crowd. Let s go over to this group of girls and see whom we remember. There’s a short dark girl. Of course, it’s Joy Smith. Like your work? Oh! yes. You’re superintendent of nurses at the Arnot-Ogden Hospital. Well, my goodness. Here s Marjorie Palmer. What are you doing? What? No, kidding. The star dancer at ‘FOO’S INN’. You always did like to dance. Who is the shy girl standing by herself? Of course, it’s Mary Wheaton. So you still haven t married. Oh, well. Maybe you’re just as well off. Here’s some more of our classmates. Marjorie Flatt, and Helen Bement. Marjorie is language teacher at the school and Helen is the star of Perry Como’s Supper Club. I should know you lady. Your name is Borra. Oh, yes. Mary Borra. You’re just a happy housewife. What about the girls who got married? Shirley Barrett and Helen Chapman both married before graduation. They are happily settled on farms with their husbands. What? Shirley Hodge married Lynn a few years after graduation, but she still keeps her job as model in Elmira. “Could I sell you a Fuller-Brush?” We know the one and only person that would be a salesman—Wendell Learn. What are you doing? We might have known you’d be top salesman of the FULLER BRUSH COMPANY. Who is arriving last but our class advisor, Mr. Dolan. He is now directing stage plays in New York City. Since everybody is here, we will now go to the dining room for dinner.” Geraldine Sherman Wilma Smith CAN YOU IMAGINE ! !
