44 interrupted our gab session, but a second glance revealed her to be Julia Vitez. Julia is a lady of leisure since she married her boss and settled down. Julia brought us news that Ramona Repine is suc- cessfully operating a pet shop in Windber. She also informed us that Dorothy Puto is now an airline hostess. We started through the park where we found Doris Merritts on a bench surrounded by books. Doris is studying so she can be a Quiz Kid. We no sooner left Doris but we met Bernard Orloski. Bernard was just appointed City Park Commissioner. Scarcely had we started on when we met the co-ed, Joyce Wagner, accompanied by Donald Wire. Joyce expects to teach her first term in the fall, and Don is being graduated next month with a major in chemistry. Joyce told us that if we'd hurry we may be able to catch Dorothy Wineland in the store across the street where she is selecting her trousseau. Just inside the entrance of the store we found Illene Horner selling books, and among her best sellers was a murder mystery written by Mary Undrosky. Elenora Stull has also taken to the literary field, and is writing recipes for Good House- keeping. Illene says she iust sold a large order of English books to Virginia Konieczny who is now teaching in the new Richland High School. After a few minutes of chatting with Emily Yoder at her counter in the Men's department we called it a day and started home. As l sit alone now with my diary, l seem to be filled with mixed emotions. I don't quite under- stand them, perhaps l might as well not try, but somehow I seem to remember my high school days as happy days. Well, anyway, I certainly enioyed seeing the old gang today. Yes, what a day this has been! 6 me 7066! lAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN HUNDRED FORTY-SIX We, the Senior Class of '46 of Richland Town- ship High School, of the County of Cambria, and State of Pennsylvania, being not less than four years of age, of sound mind and body, of amiable dispo- sition and guiltless character, and realizing the inability of the under classmen to traverse the road ahead of them unaided, do make, declare, and publish this, our Last Will and Testament: To the faculty of Richland we leave the memory of our screams when we sat on tacks, and a box of aspirin for their headaches of the future. To the senior class of '47 we will our good be- havior in P. O. D. class, and our seniority rights. To all underclassmen we give this advice: Never skip periods or play hockey unless there is no one at home. We have tried it much to our sorrow. Furthermore, to said underclassmen, we leave the privilege of patronizing Von Lunen's. We give to Mr. Franklin Miller our best wishes, and hope that some day in the near future his dream of cooperation will be realized. The senior girls of '46 will their home room teacher, Mr. Criste, to the senior girls of '47. The senior boys of '46 will their dignity to the senior boys of '47. To the sophomore class we will our dream of getting new desks with drawers for Room 107. To the infants of Richland, the freshmen, we leave the problem of finding places for the lunches so
