1945 = Mary Small, the black eyed wit of the class, was a very much valued stenographer at Lord and Taylor ' s in New York City. Joan Shopp, our class president and the most popular girl at S.H.S., was now a very prominent dress designer and business woman. Her ads reading, Shop at Schopp ' s Dress Shoppee brought customers from all parts of the globe to purchase her unique garments, which ranged from bathing suits to evening dresses. The news that John Bonn had wooed and wed a pretty Irish Rose finally persuaded me to believe the rumor that the Navy does make wolves of all kinds of fellows! The Bonns have settled down in Boston, Massachusetts, where John is a mechanic. Johnny must have won her with his quiet ways for he never was noisy, you know. During the school year it was hard to tell what would become of some of us. I never dreamed that June Gonklin would ever be a Navy Nurse because she seemed to be so frail and almost frightened at the sight of her own shadow. Maybe it gave her courage when she discovered that the wounded sailors liked to have someone small and blonde to flirt with. The next person I heard of was Winnie Kirchner. To my amazement she had be- come the private secretary to the President of the United States. Winnie always did get everything she wanted, as probably you had noticed whenever a good looking soldier entered town! When Paul Charbonneau ' s name was mentioned, I plainly recalled how his chief interests had been farms, cows, and Anne. It seems that Paul ' s greatest dreams had been realized, for he now had Anne and a large dairy farm and catt le ranch in Houston, Texas. When I had gone through the many painful operations a woman will endure to obtain beauty — whether she does or not — and was leaving, I suddenly remembered Ruth Stevens. How could I ever forget the Valedictorian of the class, a person with such a pleasant dis- position! She had married a big executive in the meat-packing industry and, believe it or not, she managed the raising of cattle. With Ruth ' s brains and her husband ' s brawn, they really have something. Just think, too, what a comfort it will be when their two boys, Holstein and Guernsey, grow up. Now that I had found out all I wanted to know about my former classmates of good old S.H.S., I decided to seek reservations at the Sheffield Inn for the two weeks ' stay here, where I might bask in the many happy memories of my high school associations.

To Paul, we give a shaving mug To please the girls when they get a hug. To June, whose preference is Navy Blue, We give this doll to keep her true. To Julia, our immaculate lass, We give this material to preserve her class. ' 1 To Betty, whose interests are far and wide, We give this case to pack them inside. To Winnie, a champion in sports, We give to you this pair of shorts. To Bev, whose looks few can surpass, To her we give this looking glass. To quiet Hazel, for increasing her tone, We give this giant megaphone. To Marion, the voice with a smile, We give this gas to take her a mile. To class red-head, Joan Schopp, We give this bleach to change her mop. To Fred, who is now in Navy Blue, We give these glasses to see him through. To Mary we give this memo with lots of space To keep those jumbled words in place. To Ruth, who loves the Saturday night dances, This diary we give to record her romances. To Ethel we give this pen and this pencil, To help her when she isn ' t cutting a stencil. So once again, as it ' s been in the past, We ' ve presented these gifts to each one of the class. We hope in the future they ' ll appreciate the time We ' ve spent in making these corny words rhyme. Joan Schopp Paul Charbonneau
