I940 fffontinuedj Lloyd Schmidt is running the Rio Vista Garage and seems to be making good, and he told me only this morning .that he was working on an invention, which would altogether do away with the noise of the cities. Clifford Smith is running a grocery store in Isleton.. Is Frank Shafer still around? Yes, and he and Robin Fenton are married and living on Frank's ranch, she replied laughingly. I always knew it would end up that way. You know that Frank was in the Olympic games in 1956. He set new records for both .the high jump and the broad jump. Of course you know that Marjorie Filbert is well on her way to the -v crown as the world's tennis champion. George Akers owns the largest chicken ranch in the state. I-Ie and Richard are friendly rivals over their chickens. Doris Williams was married a few days after graduation. She is still living on Ryer Island. Lucile Sullivan is teaching at the Birds Landing school. Marion Balsmeier is the best stenographer in the Delta. Toshio Sasaki is still trying to invent that pair of glasses so he can see as well at night as he can in the daylight. How about you? I asked. Oh, I entered the nurses training school at the university of California and I came here when they built this new hospital, which Mrs. Vandiveer donated to Rio Vista when she made her first ten million. She left the teaching profession and became a stock broker when the depression was over, and became rich, she replied What have you been doing? I was in the Navy for four years and I have been in the air mail service since then. Little did I think as I flew that night over Rio Vista that I was soon to hnd out that all my old classmates were prospering in different parts ofthe country.

I940 fC0ntinuedj Well, Frances Yearnshaw is still waiting for Richard Brann to make his million dollars so that they can be married, but it won't be long now as Richard has just patented a new invention which certainly will startle the chickens. Geraldine Brown is the buyer for a large outfitting company of San Francisco. Gerald Brown is one of the largest dairymen in California. Why, only last week he received a vote of thanks from the scientihc men of the world for his latest improvement in the dairy industry. I'm sure you've heard of Gerald's Cream Puff Cow. Lucille Wood is making good on the stage in New York, and she is the proud owner of one of the most beautiful penthouses on Fifth Avenue. jack Flannigan is telling Irish jokes over the large local radio station operated by Harold Elliot and Paul Adcockf' Hazel Davis is about to be married. After she is married she will live in Ryde, but she still intends to keep up her law practice in Isleton. Hart Kalebaugh is a doctor, and incidently he is the one to whom you owe your life. He spent hours working over you. Renato Giannetti is running the Ryde Hotel, but secretly he is carrying on a campaign in Italy to make himself dictator. Don't tell anyone, because Dede doesn't want Mussolini to suspect him. Edgar Emigh, in addition to being a prosperous rancher, is the proud owner of the two most famous racing dogs in the world.', What about Hank? I asked, suddenly remembering Edward Rice. Well, you'd never guess, so I'll have to tell you. He married Carmelita and they are living on one of the South Sea Islands, where Hank is a missionary. He's awfully glad he took Econ, as it's helping him in his dealings with the natives. If you read the papers regularly, you should know that Tom Matsubara and Yoshio Yamada are fast becoming famous as generals in the japanese Army. Oh, yes, Urzilla is running one of the best beauty shops in town, and she and her husband are very happy. Alzina Azevedo is living with her folks and working in Adelaide Madrid's Mexican Restaurant, which is the most popular place in the town, and the food there is simply wonderful. l , I I lf!!-3' A?
