Senior Futures Dear Lee: How are you and Mary? Has your tennis improved any, or is still pretty rotten? Have you heard from any of the class of ’30? I’ve got the goods on all of them. I went down to a public telephotovision booth, and while it cost quite a bit. it was worth it. Under the A’s I found Clifton Allen, a successful real estate broker in Southern California. Under the B’s I discovered Amy Brooks, Betty Bonner, Dorothy Blackmore and Harry Bokmann. Amy is a big play producer back in Minnehaha, Michigan. Betty is bringing stoop-shouldered girls back to normal in the old Alma Mater.
