L'la s P opilecy In 1975 on an expedition trip a few of their fellow juniors happened to come upon the seniors of 55. Throughout the country we came upon all of them, as they were toiling in their roles of life. As we left the Indianapolis airport, a flashing stewardess came through the plane and asked if we were comfortable. To our surprise it was Delphia Lahr. We asked her how she was, and she sadly replied, My heart still cries for Dennis. Our first stop was in Paris, France, and, as we toured the French Riviera, we found the former Carmen Ralston, a famous model in her French husband's Fashion Salon. He was the great Monsieur Pierre. Later as we were passinga.nAmerican army station in Paris, we found General Gail Tribolet and the still-Private Carl Feemster. They said they were working in a secret hydrogen bomb plant. Carl spoke of Neta and his four children and asked if we could stop at Hono Poke, Alaska, and pay them a visit on our way home. We went on to Rome, Italy, and there we found Larry Whinery. He told us of his world-wide business. He was President of Purdue University and looking for exchange students for Purdue. We made a quick trip toward home. We landed at San Francisco, and while touring the town we found Alice Grove. She was working as Eddie Fisher's personal maid. She said Debbie was fine. Sob Sob. We flew down to Hollywood and found Billy Sparks, the now famous opera star making his grand debut in the Holly- wood Bowl. We saw the former Lesley Lyons, who was Bill's wife, sitting in the audience nervously awaiting her husband's performance. She also had their six little sparkies with her. We flew to Florida, and at Tallahassee we found the former Lois Geiger teaching the third and fourth grades at the Piccidili Primary School. Her husband, Marlyn Bryd, was running the Grand Hotel at Piccidili City. We left Florida and went on to Washington, D.C. and found Ron Jordan's address in the directory. We went to visit him and found a beautiful home which he and his wife, the former Mary Smith, own. He said he was Speaker of the House of Representatives and was very well satisfied with the job. We went on to Detroit and toured the Ford Plant. We found Rex Perry, an engineer designing the new 1976 Ford. We went on to Minneapolis and found our old friend, Dave Smith, our former basketball star, coaching the Minneapolis Lakers. Our next stop was at Indianapolis. Since it was Memorial Day we went to the 500-mile race. In the program we noticeda person's name which seemed familiar. It was that of Larry Hand from Huntertown, Indiana. This could be no one but our Larry who always drove the souped-up Fords when we were all in school. He was doing a good job of herding his jetmobile around the race track. One of the members of our party got sick at the race so we took him down to the Medical Center, and guess whom we found as superintendent of nurses. Joyce Perry, or now Joyce Brumbaugh! She said she thoroughly enjoyed her position. We asked her how Rodger and the four kids were. She said they were all fine and Rodger had a wonderful job, teaching at the Technical College. This concluded our trip, and we were glad we had seen our upper classmen of twenty years ago. We wonder what they will be doing in the twenty years to come.
