Hailing a cab was no easy task, but finally one came to a screeching stop, and the driver Herbie Rouse, Jumped out and opened the door. I arrived at the hotel safely in exactly one minute, but dubious as to my soundness. As I walked into the lobby of the hotel, I heard George Rohweder discussing the World Series with Jim McCormick. George was saying, Now if I was out there, I would show them how to play baseball. If I 'had of been playing, they would have won that game. At 8:00 p.m. that evening, I left the hotel to go to the high school gym where the Alumni Dance was to be held. Boy I The dear old high school has sure changed since I graduated. A huge ballroom replaces the old gym. It seems that they had to build a new school because of the increase instudents, and they didn't want to destroy the building, so they converted It into a ballroom. As I walked into t he hall, I spotted a little gathering of alumni. Eugene Lambert was arguing about who was to have the first dance with Mary. LeRoy Lekberg, Kenneth Tuescher, and Leonard Terpening were watching with interest. Earl Page, the famous wrestler was talking with his manager, Walter Weise about the big match scheduled the following week for the world title. When I entered the dance floor, I saw Roy McDonald, master of ceremonies, trying to get things going. The music of Tommy Dorsey's Orchestra was floating softly over the room and Cecil Wilder at the mike was crooning a mellow tune of the day, Dreamer's Holiday . It seems that Cecil has done pretty well for himself; he has a five year contract with Tommy Dorsey. As I looked around, I saw Bob May, Raymond Lake, Edward Hall, Don Gill, and Jim Hoffmeister dancing. Hmmmmmm, looks cozy 1 A few of the alumni were unable to come; Lon Allen, who is a famous English Prof; Orville Dahrens, a famous cartoonist on a New York paper; Hershall Cansler, a hot rod driver (He was in the Hospital); Jean Cason, Lois Bartlemay, and Kathleen Forbes are models in New York; Amelia Raysick Is working on an atomic theory, and felt that she could not leave at this time. Doris Wilcox, Jackie Klinski, and Sara Kane are running a Baby Sitter Association, and were not able to come tonight because of their increased business. Gloria Johnson, Mary Anne Nicholson, and Pearl Rogers are foreign correspondents in Europe.
