SENIOR FUTURES Having sealed myself in my compartment in the huge passenger plane winch was to convey me from Los Angeles to New York, I picked up this morning’s copy of the nationally known Oroville Morning Press. Turning to the social section. I noted the report of a stupendous function which took place at the new Oroville Inn located on the corner of Bird and Meyers Streets, i he item gave an account of the Reunion of the 1929 Senior Class. With intense interest I read of the ways fate had dealt with there sons and daughters of Oroville High. Pauline Speese, it seems, has achieved a part in A1 Jolson s newest musical comedy. We always did enjoy Pauline’s actions. Muriel Wirth has just returned from making many excavations in New Mexican pueblos. Lillian Camper has accepted the position of physical education instructor in our Alma Mater. Carlotta Rippey has distinguished herself as champion milkmaid of the valley. Lottie enjoyed ranch life so. Jean Campbell, always our upstanding member, ha been elected president of our worthy W. C. T. U. Jean would find a calling. Ernestine Graves, our peppy little bit of femininity, has established herself as matron of our local asylum. Of all things! Sylvia Johnson has been entered as prize fat lady in a carnival. Malcolm Mitchell has aspired to great things. He is now mayor of Be-ry Creek. Clyde Emahiser is now a famous artist and we hear has bem marned five times, ’lnnu' Fry is a dutiful and meek housewife. I could hardly believe it of her.
