Also the bot-Hy stung several fa bot-fly is a carrier of love, in case you forgotj. Norma Woodworth met her beloved Harry Kindlesperger at the altar soon after graduation Koh yes, they fell in love again! and Betty Patterson visited the Congregational Church soon after with tbelieve it or notl Ted Putnam. Two of the intelligent girls of the class, Marcia Guilford and Winifred Gerard, took up nursing but the former did not last long for soon a nice boy named Bob Dean came along and stole her heart away . Winifred is now assistant manager under Dr. Wm. Jordan at Pontiac. CProbab1y some more of us belong there.J Dorothy Elwell designs dresses at Ye Modern Dress Shoppe in Boston which is owned by Mildred Lewis, and Reta Clark is head matron of an orphanage. Dick Kebler is the latest mar- vel at tennis. What is the use of going on? Have I not showed ample proof that the class of '38 was a humdinger? I haven't'? All right: Falice Filbert has made a fortune by painting portraits of people as they would like to look-not as they do. Katheryn Greenhoe has studied up on astronomy and is go-ing to teach a course in Simplined Star-Gazing for Freshmen. Carl Edmonds is going to help her QI wonder in which wayl . Nellie Anderson, Alice Ockerman, Ruth Speers, and Arlene Reid are all women barbers. Shaving is absolutely painless or whiskers cheerfully re- funded. Ardis Fox is the world's busiest woman. She is busy now trying to find time to rest. Charlotte Hadsall claimed for a while that the best way to grow tall is to drink milk. Carol Deisler stumped her when she ask- ed if condensed milk would do. Norman Tufford and Clare Smith are in a very dead business. They are undertakers. Darrielyn Leflingwell, Gloria Johnson, Esther Skinner, Lillian Root, Betty Wood, Jeanne Caylor, Mary Burns, Dorothy Salander, Leona Jensen, Betty McLaren, Dorothy Wilson, Arlene Schautz, and Jean Pierce have organized a Girlfs Baseball League and are the chief opponents of the House of David team composed of the following beards: Robert Dickerman, David Martin, Arnold Wheeler, Leslie Perrin, Daniel Chlebo, Harold Wiser, Joe Zelensky, Henry Mertz, Gilbert Vogelpohl, Russell Turner, Clare Jones, Edward Goeckel, Wade Wightman, Bin LiOGW6I1SL61I'l,'VJRCKISIIOWIQS, James Fritzche, Glenn Menter, Bob Trudeau, and managed by Andy Sekan. Bob Quarles has invented a shock absorber for dollar watches. '1 ne two Sprelie twins have Clayton Lucas and Bob LaPreze on the run. Clayton is sup- posed to be going with Velma and Bob with Verna, but when the twins tire of their love, they change for a while and no one knows the difference. Dorothy Telfer is a lecturer in the movement to prohibit woman suffrage. She thinks they already suffer enough without the law to encourage 113. The biggest invention yet was the mechanical man who does all the work for you. It was invented by Bob Meiers, who found only one thing wrong with it-it wouldn't work. ' -, . ..2g.

Prophecy Being a clock in the High School library for over two decades is no cinch. Especially in this year of 1950 when clocks are quickly running out of date. Nevertheless, one learns many things about students and through gossip, what becomes of them. One class I recall above all the rest-that of 1938. Many were bright CThat's what they thoughtl and lots were dumb but on the whole they all turned out pretty well. How do I know? Well just listen: Three girls of the class, Ethel Grace Marshall, Doris McLaughlin, and Jean Randolph, formed the famous Ross School for Girls fBette Ross as presidentl. Lloyd Wing has become editor of the New York Century-and with great success. How could he fail with those supersaleswomen com- posed of Doris Lutz, Edna Hecht, Mildred Filgas, and Beulah Brockway selling the papers by the millions Qwell, maybe thousandsj and Mavis Bristol, Robert Holzhausen, and Roger Thomas contributing the brain- work? Arthur iBudJ Byerly has continued with his dad's business until Stop, Shop, and Save at Byerly's has become a household motto throughout the country for rather Owossoj. Robert Hudson is general manager and Bob Scarlett is foreman of the famous Byerly bakeries. CHe's good here, for his technique of buy from me or else is still in usel. The Chicago Bears have just won the pro-football championship, guided by Joe Hoy, that :swell boy we were all proud to know. On the team are our football heroes composed of Jim Grill, Bill Selleck, Bill Jackson, and Noble Ercole fyes, N ip can still catch 'emJ. The famous Tanner Band which accompanies the football team is led by none other than our own Don Morman who throws two batons over the goal posts at the same time, and, believe it or not, catches them. In the band we see a little fellow blowing with all his might. A second look shows it to be Russell Osmer. He looked so small playing next to Bill King. Of course we all know that Ed is also directing the Swing Time Band in San Francisco. Several students of the class of '38 traveled quite widely. Frederick Wing and Robert Watts combined their brainpower and started a hunting expedition to Angola. Likewise, Donald Smith, Jerry Kentfield, and John Meredith made a journey to Tibet fhow could you get John up those moun- tainsj. Edna Hoenshell is singing in Berlin before the king fHitler was 127,

Russell Telfer is in Arabia trying to persuade the natives to take him on as another Mussolini. Clare Kline is in Alaska trying to sell electric fans to the Eskimos and Elmore Gregorik wonders why he can't sell more fur coats in Brazil. Why don't you get together, boys? Dale Fidler, Keith Dann, Waldo Stinson, Albert Lewandowski, Vic Gerard, Warren Cross, Charles Jelinek, James Crugher, Wayne Taylor, Joseph Cibula, Gale Chap- man, Edward Creer, John Sinnott, Gerald Noonon, Irving Rubenstein, and Earl Scott are working on a book, Why Men Have the Most Brainpower . Betty Augustine, Thelma Fyan, Duane Gray, Pauline Mitchell, Lucille Wightman, Viola Mae Warren, Arlene Schautz, Jean Wiers, Barbara Wat- son, Pauline Overpack, Dorothy Washburn, Edith Eva, Lorena Freeman, and Mildred Warner are all trying to find out what is wrong with the book. Grace Lane is very busy keeping up a home of her own, but she finds time to fashion dresses for the Le Cureux Style Review edited by Mildred Adams and Aida Bingham. Donald Lux has been picked as the ideal husband and he states that Grace is living proof that a girl can have both a home and a career. Lily Konecny is the Dean of Women at the New England Holmes School for Girls. Charles Schlaack coaches football at O. H. S. now. In his spare moments he has brain-storms and 'turns them over to Pauline Rourke. One finds many students of the class of '38 at the most famous trial of the century held in Philadelphia. The Hon. Wm. Himburg presides over the court with Jack Harris as Prosecuting Attorney. Eugene Geeck, Edith Evans, Olive Kent, and Ellen Price are the newspaper reporters and Beth Benoy, June Henderson, Mary Ellen Berndt, Lillian Brockmiller, Kenneth Skinner, and Doris Burpee are the witnesses. The Women's Police Force is on hand composed of Frances Armstrong, fwhen she's not taking pic- turesj, Ruth Hart, Rosemary Sanders, Jean Pierce, June Hass, and Alma Elwell. Now who else do I spy in the courtroom-oh yes-Avon Rowell on the jury CI see no justice can be done now.J Now is there anyone whom I have left out of this huge class? Bob Brewer? Why, he's the one the whole trial is based on-to see whether he is completely batty or just a little nuts after listening to me tick away the future for the class of '38, -Robert Brewer -QQL
