JANUARY CLASS PROPI-IECY January 24, I972 Dear Diary, At last l'm finally settled in my new home at i952 Graduates Street, Shawgradville, U.S.A. lUnited Shaw Alumnil. l Much to my surprise, I found several of my neigh- bors were old classmates. Across the street was Dolores McKenny and her husband, while on either side of me were my two good friends Janet Arnold and Joan Alley. Needing food supplies I took off for the grocery store. There I met Doris Herrick, Joan Schecter, Lois Sodergren and Anna-Mae Clouse who were bubbling over with news. They informed me that Bob Mears and his brood also live on my street and that I had iust missed Carol Baus who had recently moved to California. They also said that Chuck Hard, Don Har- rington, Jack Phillips, John Stockman, and Bill Storey were prosperous farmers. Depositing my groceries at home I found I had time to tour the town. Glancing across the street I noticed a hardware store with big red letters in the window saying Bob Messner and Roger Schmidt, Proprietors. Next door was Helen Haba's and Beverly Poore's famous dancing school. On the corner was a gas sta- tion run by Bob Daley, ably assisted by John Reed. Crossing over to Main Street I was impressed by the number of familiar names on the business establish- ments there. Deab Ekholm was a veterinarian, Richard Patti a dentist, Mary Ellen Brophy and Eleanor Euse were in the interior decorating business and Nancy Smith was editor of the Shawgradville News. Further down the street I saw by the marquee on the theater that Natalie Rose had the lead in their current play. It was lunchtime by now so I stopped at a restaurant which turned out to be the rendezvous of the business- men and women. The first persons I saw were Shirley Arndt, Roberta Fuller, and Dorothy Polk, who were busy in the field of social work. They invited me to lunch with them and pointed out other classmates. u'W'Lt GV- There were Marie Calori, LaVerne Jozsa, Marlene Mick, Angie Mimides, Joyce Roesler, Arlene Warman, and Barbara Wischmeyer, all secretaries. Margie Dwyer was a secretary for an art studio. At the next table were Kathy Hoover, secretary for a detective agency and Aida Maiorano, a policewoman. Next they pointed out chemical engineers, Don Ross, War- ren Waldron, Lloyd Wittenmeyer, and Dennis Wood. Across the aisle from them were seated Joe Romain, a well known draftsman, George Shriver, who runs the YMCA, Dave Hennie and Ken Knoefel, Showgrad- ville's chief electricians, AI Krause, a traveling sales- man, Allen Swancar, a prominent physicist, and Bob Danielson, who was a famous metallurgist. All too soon the lunch hour was over and the girls had to return to their offices. I left them and continued on my tour. l met Dione Kofron, a stewardess for the U.S.A. Airlines. She told me that Dolores Owen was managing a baseball team and that Bette Peters was a telephone operator. Dione suggested that Istop in at the radio station and see Don Barry, the disc jockey, who might be able to tell me about some other classmates. He was most obliging. John Cramer was an Industrial Electrician, Mike Grande a welder and Ray Hennen was tending bar at the Toddle Inn. He said that Don George was business manager of Tapco, while Bob McPhee had become a very famous musician. Lois Carlson was a successful model and June Gem- lich and Janice Sherrill accountants for a large local firm and Shirley Gebhart and Judy Hall bookkeepers at the First National Bank.Shawgradville had a group of competent doctors to care for the townspeople. They were Dr. Susan Struggles, Dr. Herb Luxenberg, and Dr. Paul Benedict, whose nurse was Lois Fitzpat- rick. Other nurses were Barbara Davidson, Pat McHugh, Betty Mizarek, Delphine Perse, and Toni Tarantino. Dione went on to say that Shawgradville had one of the finest educational systems in the country. It included Marlene Knopf teaching kindergarten, Jean Collmer and Elaine Naff teaching first and second grades respectively, while in the high school Janice Meyer was a business teacher and Frank Langdon, the boys' physical ed. teacher. Thanking Dione for such an informative visit I started home. On the way I stopped to buy a copy of the Shawgradville News. On the front page was a cam- paign speech for reelection by Mayor Ronald Lear. The second page had a list of servicemen who had iust received promotions. They were Chuck Putzbach, Lewie Snow, and Gerald Yontek of the U.S. Navy and Pete Senyak of the Marines. Don Rushlin had iust become captain of his own boat on the Great Lakes. After a quick supper I hurried over to Charlene Buckius's house to babysit while she and her husband took in a movie. Sleepily yours, A. Graduate
