DENISE PACETTI is the President of the PACETTI ' S DOWN ' S, Miami, Florida, opened and operated since ' 71. Nipper is still going strong, even if he has one wooden leg. All the children ride him— free! The bouncer for the evening is coming up the aisle, DR. KATHY KISTLER. She is wearing an attractive white muslin pants suit, trimmed in black satin, with a black satin belt to match. DR. KISTLER tells us she is practicing in Oxford, Ohio, where the action is. We are very pleased to have the owner of the Zorado Castle, YVONNE PIERRE, here with us tonight. YVONNE has been very successful— tourists still find this Castle educa- tional and interesting, even if they do have to strain their ears a bit. TWILA FLEMING, alias Arethea and Soul Sister Number One, has just hit tops with her recording of, I Found Love On A One-Way Street. TWILA sings at the H.S.M. Re- cording Studios where ADELE McLAUGHLIN is owner and producer. Both have made the trip in their Rolls Royce all the way from the City Gates. MARION (Hopalong) WILLIAMS, on crutches again, just entered. What happened this time, MARION? I had just recuperated from a sprained ankle . . . then ... I fell down the stairs and broke my leg. MARION is coach of the basketball team at St. Joe; occasionally, he sings at the H.S.M. His latest recording is, Ouch, I Did It Again! We are honored with the presence of the Mayor of the Town, WILLIAM (BILLY) CREECH. He has turned a little gray at the temples but is still dignified and smiling as ever. The Mayor was our Class Treasurer that last year at St. Joe, and he certainly knew how to climb the ladder. (We found absolutely nothing in the Treasury after he graduated. I wonder if . . .) There is a noise of voices outside. A crowd is gathering. They ' re coming closer to the entrance. People are stepping aside. Why, it is the President of the United States, DWAYNE TULLY! I wondered if he would be able to make it this evening! Hail to The Chief is being played by BABBY McGRATH as he walks up the aisle with his bodyguards, the Daring-Due, JOHN L. COLEE and DOUG GRISSOM. DWAYNE al- ways had his hands in something— if it wasn ' t the National Honor Society, the typewriters getting out letters for Career Day, etc., or Drama, it was KAREN ' s CAKES and BABBY ' s cream sodas. JOHN L. states that in the near future he will be heading for the Olympics as the reigning tennis champion of the United States, and DOUG, whose back is insured by Lloyd ' s of London, because it is the world ' s most valuable back, states that he will be on the United States Olympic Sleeping Team— soon! FILOMENA CAPPARELLI and PEGGY BEACH, Business Manager and Partner of this Production tonight, walks over to the President, hands him important documents (which they documented), and are telling him something. All eyes are on him as he opens the large, brown envelope. He looks it over. He smiles and stands. All voices are hushed. He walks up to the stage and seats himself beside BABBY at teh piano. They are saying something about the papers. He places them at the piano and they begin to play a duet, GRANADA. We haven ' t heard them play like that since our last year at St. Joe! Each alumnus took part in this Class Reunion Talent Show. What a show! One we will never forget. We are all very happy that all could be present tonight and are a little sadden- ed to part; and as we do, thirty-one strong sing the grand finale, Those Were The Days. Again, I repeat, what a show!
