V. team says, Hi, Coach! , they are speaking to ',l rank XVatson. l rank's fine athletic ability made him a natural for this job. All through his high school years Franklin has excelled in sports. Sports, however, is not the only thing in which he excels. You should hear his snappy comehacks! For instance, Got nose trouble Y is always his quick retort to an inquisitive person. But a person has likes as well as dislikes, and for this he says .hat dancing with his steady, Doris Ann, rates with him. Those who leave Quantico will luiss Frank, because he is one of our favorites. NVe wish him luck and success always. William Henry Weigand, known to everyone as just plain Bill, is the pin-up hoy of the class! Almost every night you can find him setting up pins at the bowling alley. His quiet manner and pleasing person- ality havc won him many friends. Bill is very easy to please and you can always interest him with classical music. He likes most all kinds of food, but says a loud XO to too much home- work. Bill has no definite plans for the future but we k11ow he will be successful, whether it be setting up pins or setting up a busi- 11655.

C! 61,55 l'0l0 QC? Dayclreaming with M argie Davis- As I journey back to dear old Quantico, it seems like only yesterday we were all together. By all, I mean the Class of 1950. Five long years have gone by since our glorious graduation day. On this, our class reunion day, I'm sitting on the train that will soon take me back to a thousand happy memories. It makes me wonder how many of the class are doing the same thing this very minute. I guess it's only natural that I try to picture what they are doing and where they are. I can see that face of Beve Brunelli, smiling as usual. What's this on her third finger, left hand? Still the familiar sight of .Iohnny's class ring. She's busy. though, as she has a Children's Progressive Nursery way out in Nevada. The next class member I recall is unpredictable Billy Walters. Why, he and Bill Norwood are part owners of a swanky restaurant in Norfolk. They are real successes, too. Well, here comes Frances and Ellis with their family. They are a happy, contented family group now. Makes me envious! Gee! I wonder what our flirting-machine is doing now. Of course I mean cute Elsa Collier. She is still on the loose but there are three strings on one hand and four on the other. She can't make up her mind which one to pull. It isn't hard to picture Franklin and Doris still together. Franklin is now owner of the Watson and Bourne Newstand. And of course where there is the paper truck there is Bones. Yes, he's still at it: after all there will always be newspapers. A strange sight! Bill Waldrop is working in a bakery. This is a little out of character, but he is really making the dough. Here comes Joanie Steele and boy! she is a professional bowler of the highest standing. Maybe she will give us a little exhibition of her talents. Our career girl, Paula, is here. But my goodness, she gave up any ambitions she had and she and Harold are happily married. From the looks of Harold's middle-aged spread, Paula can really cook. Who would have guessed it? Our shy Willie Weigand is a movie star. The greatest lover of all time he is called. And we thought we knew him! Now who could this be coming into view? It's Jean Bishop, and she is a beautician back in Quantico. On the side she runs a Date Bureau for all lonely Marines. Our little diamond girl, Joanie Campbell, is none other than Miss Powder-Puff of 1955. Her career as a cover girl is a real surprise. The next class member is Gracie Price, our witty one. She has changed completely-she's an operatic star at the Met now. Will wonders never cease! Now I can see our Susie, or I should say Representative Powers, for she is a Congresswoman from Virginia. The latest paper says she has secured a pay raise for all school teachers. She didn't forget Quantico, either. Here comes quiet and shy Ellen, tearing her hair! Oh, no wonder, for she's an English teacher at Quantico now. Norma, or Scrounge is still flitting around. Four different colleges so far-she can't find one to suit her fancy. Why, Quantico already! What a short and enjoyable trip. This reminising has been fun. Yes, I, Margie Davis and a loyal member of the Class of '50 am really overjoyed to be back at this wonderful place. California was never like this! Twenty
