‘PwftAecy On November 21, 1959, I, Clara Leum, received in the mail a card from my old Alma Mater '’Sandy Hi . It was an invitation from the Class of 1960 to come to the Alumni Dance, which was Thanksgiving Eve. At first I didn’t give it much thought, and then I decided it had been quite a long time since I had seen my old friends at Sandy, and this would be a good opportunity to see them again. At 7:00 a.m. on November 23, I was standing in the warm sun of Florida, waiting to board the plane which would take me to my destination-—-—-Sandy, Oregon. Suddenly, I heard a loud roar above me. Then right before me, a plane came to a screeching hault, tipping up on nose and then settling back down on the ground. Out Jumped the pilot who was Lois Wesselink. It seems that this was the Wesselink Trans-Atlantic Line. Calmly, but not so sure I was in my right mind, I boarded the plane. After I was settled in my seat, the hostess asked me if I was comfortable. I looked up to see Lydia Jadrny, a chief airline hostess. After landing at the airport in Sandy, I got out and began to look around. I was surprised to see how much Sandy had changed in just ten years. It was now a big winter resort, where people came from all over the world to take part in the winter sports. The Main Street of ten years hence was now a huge ski jump. I had arrived just in time to see a few people practice for the ski Jump that was to be held later that day. As I looked closer, I saw they were, James Martin, Frank Wills, Madeline Dollowitch, and Audrey Richey. Just then somebody yelled— Hey look at that dame—she's gonna break her neck 1 I turned to see whom they were talking about and saw Gloria Minyard coming down the ski shute backwards. Same old Gloria, always trying something different. I went over to talk with her, and she said that she and Bobbie, now a famous ski team, had been all over the world skiing, but for the present, they had accepted a permanent booking with Don Lowe, who was business manager of the famous Snow House, the very latest in resort hotels, which naturally was owned by the very prominent Mr. Richard Snow. I walked over to the hotel and ashed for a room. The clerk, Wally Wesselink, gave me my room number and the key

H© rang for the bell boy who came bounding out in a red suit with large brass buttons, and under a v ery large hat I recognized a slight resemblance to Cecil Newman, While gathering a minutes rest after unpacking, I was flung from my chair by a loud crash that shook the whole building. It came from the next room, but I was afraid to investigate for fear it was some mad chemist experimenting with the atomic bomb. Later that evening, I found out it was the famous football star of Pacific University, Bill Rannow, showing Bob Keck a play that they had used in a previous game. Feeling rather hungry, I went in search of food. The dining room in the hotel was closed, so I asked the enter- tainment hostess, Nancy Dove, directions to a good place to eat. She suggested Schultzies Dive”. She said it was owned by an old friend of mine, Shirley Schultz. As I entered the door, the hostess, LaVaughn Sleeper, came to greet me. She gave me a table up in front so I could watch the floor show. They had a wonderful orchestra. They were called the Ziemer Dreamer's”, all of them were former classmates of mine. Lloyd was playing the trumpet, Phyllis Hewitt onthe piano. Bob Hewitt on the sax, Tommy Novotny on the trombone, and Jack Schmitz on the drums. Their costumes were all alike, having grey trousers, aqua Jackets, white shirts, and wine colored ties and all were especially designed by the greatest designer ofthe day, Evelyn Lundgrigan. The lights dimmed, and the spotlight pivoted to the center of the floor. Then into the spotlight stepped ”Toots” Swails, singing Where Are You, Now That I Need You a popular hit tune of the day. It seems that she is replacing Lena Horne when it comes to singing the blues. Another entertainer takes tte spotlight. Aha 1 I see the Latin American Dancer, Eenie . There seems to be something familiar about her. As I look closer, I see that she isn't Latin American at all, but is Sandy's own muchacha, Arlene Seematter. Beneath all that dyed hair, and elaborate costume, I could hardly recognize her. She starts her dance, accompanied by the rhythmic voices of Edna Willis, Myrlyn McDonald, Violet Lambert, Betty James, Jerry Schott, Junior Paschali, Don Ourecky, and Jim Hedgecock. I motioned for the head waiter, who was Roger Bartholomew, to bring my check. As I left, the hat check girl, Patsy Malone, gave me my coat.
