-.-l. --.1 DIQCDHECY Some one switched on the Television set and the screen showed the faces of Esther Carlin and Wendell Parker leading in reducing exercises. Henry Cornwell, the announcer, also rendered several vocal selections which had been popular in my school daze Suddenly I was disturbed by the noise of a street brawl. Bushing outside and inquiring what was the matter I was informed by a bystander, Doris Doolittle, that William Bailey and Edward Winters, famous soap box orators seemed to have violently disagreed on the theory that Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Doris and I walked down the street and she informed me that she was matron of the city hos- pital. I also learned that Edith Christensen was dietitian and that Thelma Sheppard, Mildred Travis, and Buth Miller were nurses under her. Down the street a flying electric sign in front of a theater proclaimed to the world at large that Jane McKie and Don Olsen were headlines on the vaudeville bill as Adaggio dancers and the feature picture was Art Covert and Doris Ansley in a modern version of Ben Hur. l bought tickets from Grace Rogersg they were taken from us by Erwin Fletcher and we were shown to our seats by Whilma Crane. We were just in time to see the last of the news reel which showed Wesley Feagles, the reporter, interviewing the Queen of Sheba, Ida Ames, on the possibility of her marrying the Sheik of Araby, more commonly known as Miles Whitbeck. After the show I walked down the street to a Delicatessen proprieted by Carl Eskildsen and Josephine Swarthout. Mary Gottfried was a clerk. They told me that Rosario Castelluzzo and Nicholas Cincotta were engaged in gathering old Fords to be melted up for tomato cans. l also learned that Mildred Fox had just won a prize for talking the most and saying the least. l left the store and walked down the street past a lot enclosed by a high hoard fence. On the fence, printed in large green letters was Murphy's Brick Yardf, The night watchman was Monroe Barden. He was still kicking about the A-he had received in French. Chatting with him I learned that Kenneth Sorenson and Edith Christensen had joined the Barnum and Bailey Circus as dwarfs and that Isabel Turner went as their strong woman. He told me also that Hilda Kinyoun, Erna DeCamp, Isabel Maloney and Sarah Challis have consolidated in the dressmaking business and were doing very well. Across the street was the Boyce Sisters Candy Shop which, Moe told me, was very well patronized. About this time I began to feel sleepy so I bade farewell to Moe and made my way toward the Hotel, but I never arrived there. Instead I woke up to find myself being dragged from my car by Malcolm Snowden. My car had very gracefully wrapped itself around a large elm tree. Except for a bump on the head, I was none the worse, but alas, I realized that this wonderful experience of meeting most of my classmates had been merely a dream. 24 V

We elected our class officers at the beginning of the school yearg President, lildred liarclilfg Vice-President, Kenneth lilakesleez Secretary and Treasurer, Louise Creary. After choosing our ofiicers, we selected Miss Stowe and Mr. Woolf as our class advisers. Due to the coaching of Miss Hughes, we were able to present our class plays on Monday, March 21. The three one-act plays were Grandma Pulls the Strings, Don't Make Me Laugh and Never Aint The characters acted their parts very creditably. Unusual talent was displayed by a few of the characters. A benefit movie, Cheaters at Play, was presented at the Elmwood Theater on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, May 31, June 1 and 2. Quite a large number of tickets were sold. We are now completing our plans for the Junior Prom which will he held the last of June. As our class colors are yellow and green, we are sure that we will be able to make the gym look very pretty. We would like to take this opportunity to wish each and every Senior the best of fortune in their new work. 26 Y
