wife of Bob Cuptil who is still, after 27 years, running for Mayor of the city of BIythe. Leia also told us that Virginia Velasco had become the world ' s champion golfer who had made 9 holes in 7 strokes. We next entered the office of the Five Way Stretch Bubble Cum Company owned by Bob McDonald who is still courting Edna Mae Saxton, a post post post post graduate of P.V. U.H.S. We then walked into the apartment of Mary Criffiths, and she told us about the medal she had just won for taking shorthand at the rate of 999 words a minute. Mary ' s roommate was none other than Billie Cansler who we soon learned was making preparations for her fifth honeymoon. Later we visited the clubhouse of the Hen Pecked Husbands whose president was Dee Clary, and the vocalist was Ralph Hoover who was all alone in a corner singing There Ain ' t No Good in Women . Our visit was soon interrupted by the entrance of a group of club members, Bert Clark, Calen Van Dyke, John Byrd, Johnny Wallace, and Glenn Caldwell. We renewed our acquaintances and sitting around the clubhouse fire, told many tales of boyhood pranks at Palo Verde High. Soon the conversation turned to business and we learned that Bert Clark and Galen Van Dyke were partners and were raising boneless fish very profitably. John Byrd and Glenn Caldwell were talking politics. Byrd is campaigning as a delegate for President and Janice is his capable secretary. Glenn, who even in school had shown signs of genius, told us about his newest invention, an auto- matic pocket picker. Johnny Wallace, we found, was dancing in a new Broadway show. Soon it was time for Galen to go home because, he told us, his wife, the former Margaret Hudson, didn ' t allow him out after seven o ' clock. Although we were reluctant to leave, we continued our work and came to the prosperous looking home of Johnny De Meyer and his wife, Maurice. Johnny is the editor of the BIythe Journal for which Opal Sain writes a weekly How to Get Your Man column. Clyde Bowen is a foreign correspondent and is at the South Pole. This being our last call, we trod wearily home to our hotel. Throwing ourselves in easy chairs, we switched on the radio and a familiar voice was heard, One, two three, bend, one, two, three, jump and then the announcer stated that Miss Beryl Lyies had just completed her daily reducing lessons and that the next number on the program would be a duet sung by Miss Wanda Irby and Miss Mary Rodriguez. Well, we had certainly had a busy day but you can imagine how happy we were to have seen all of our old classmates of 1942. MARJORIE YOUNG and ROBERTA SINNOCK PROPHECY
