rophecy Time, that harvester of joys and sorrows, pleasure and pain, has reaped the gold of fifteen precious years as we gather tonight to share once again the experiences that hrought ready smiles and tears to our eyes so frequently in the Past. Truly. the years have sped, but with their going have come to the memhers of the class of '-11 experience unbounded and the realization in full of the potentialities they showed while at Sharon High School. Having weathered a myriad of storms thus far on the infinitely mysterious ocean that is lille. they reyel in their ever-increasing power and in the con- templation of their growing wisdom, the inevitahle accompaniment of the on- rushing years. The year, Iriends, is 1956. Our scene is the crowded confusion of Sharon. that hnsy little metropolis, often referred to as the Ilollywood of Hocliamoclt Valley, now alight with golden flame.

Advancing into the spacious and ornately designed foyer of the Indian Playhouse, appropriately surrounded by ticket scalpers, we find ourselves listening intently to a silver-toned commentator, who at present is hiding behind the microphone greeting dignitaries and celebrities alike for NBC, CBS, and TVA. NVhy of course! It's Mr. Voi - - - oh, I beg your pardon! It's Mr. David Prescott. Take it away D. P. Ladies and gentlemen! Before I begin my interviews and comments, just a word about this gigantic production. It's the biggest thing since Mickey Mouseu, and because its leading roles are taken by former members of this town, more specifically by the class of ,41 of Sharon High School, appropriately this king of all screen productions is having its first showing here tonight. But wait-here are our first victims, Miss Agnes Fitzpatrick, our deft baton twirler, accompanied by her able manager Miss Virginia Eldracher, both bursting, as usual, with juicy tidbits extracted from the lives of renowned Sharonites. IVhat have you been doing in the past few years, my friends? IVell, David, welve been spending most of our time in New York Cityf' YVould you tell us about your experiences in New York, Cinny?,' Cladly. One of the best shows of the current season is The Water-Wave Aquacade managed by Professor Paul Condon. A majority of Condonis Water Babies are former Sharon girls. Kay Boyden, Babe Cunningham, and Mari- louise jones are among star performers. And have you noticed the clever covers in Resort,', that sensational, new weekly devoted to the exploitation of feminine charm? They are designed by our old friend Donald Cately. You probably wouldn't recognize in its pages the brunette who models those attractive, Chinese red bathing suits. That's Doris Carterf, That,s quite a hat you have on yourself, Agnes. A New York model, I presume. Oh! Do you like it? It's an original creation by Thelma Stratton. Sheis doing very well for herself in the big city. YVhile we were driving out to Pat Leary's country place on Long Island for lunch the other day, we stopped in at Freddie Frey's gargantuan garage, and who should be installed there as chief mechanic, but Bill Moore. Oh, did you hear the sad news about Doug Alden? He was riveting the girders of a skyscraper recently, when pausing to gaze at a bit of feminine scenery, he slipped and fell, breaking his leg. He was taken to New York Central Hospital, where heis under the special supervision of Dr. Warren Armstrong who handles the most violent cases. He seems to be doing very well, let us hope that he continues to do so. I am sure he will, Cinny, but here comes the class widow. Bernice NVhite. who is having a very gay time of it. Cood evening. Bernice. NVhat have you been doing lately?,' I've been so many places and seen so many things, I simply can't recall everything. I do remember, however, the recent performance at the Metro- politan of the Barber of Sevillew, in which our own talented young coloratura soprano, Marylee Ward, made her debut. Incidentally. the Keeny and Carlo fStetson and Brownj acrobatic dance team is now co-starred at the Rainbow Boom with Bob McLean,s band of merry men featuring that popular vocalist and merriest of men, Bill Mann -- but I really must be getting on. It's been so nice! - page twenty-nine
