T, . -Q 0 . g, Qllass Brnphecg-Conzinued people attend just to watch the dramatic leader as she directs. But where are the others that neither the American nor the Ladies Home Jour- nal feature them? Dorothy Black, is Pro- fessor of Latin at Ohio Wesleyan, Bertha Purdy is teaching History at old S. H. S. and Eleanor Hope is author of a Eat and Grow Thin series. Clarence Fagan is tak- ing Mr. Tener's place. But Russell again became nervous so I picked up another magazine, The Farm Journal, and there found an article written by Jonas Stuckey, regarding his cure for the corn borer. We found that Kenneth Smith and Ray Weaver, are also contribu- tors to this magazine. Boots Fisher called this forenoon. He plays professional football, you know. He told us that Walt. Bricker, our famous cap- tain of '27, is responsible for the coaching of Ohio State's wonderful team. This does not surprise us, owing to his earlier career. Florence Douglas is still holding up the woman's side of the game, Boots says, for she is a world famous acrobat. Eunice Mayer and Irene Weaver, are re- lief nurses in the Near East, and as for the rest of our classmates, many are sailing the unchartered sea of matrimony. Among these are Faye Milliron, Alice McGaw, Thelma Petitt, Opal Adams, Reeva Kirk- patrick, Cecelia Noss, Margaret Fullmer and Margaret Grubb. I am sure we hope they enjoy their voyage and that very few storms stir the calm waters. Alas, the others have places in the ranks of the unclaimed-their state was a great worry to our most recent callers-Nig, Fritz, and Milan. Mary Coe and Helen Laser are still living with Jeannette in her cunning little studio in Greenwich Village. Mary is a social sec- retary, and Helen a model for a Permanent Wave establishment. Russell had fallen asleep so I must steal gently out of the roomf--But the charm ozf High School days is once more enshrouding me. Q IW -Q - -fa E223 W, W-

Yi- T, New 4, , gflggmgl-Q55j',,,,.. L ...,.,,, . Glass Brnpherg Alas, twenty uneventful years have pass- ed ere it is my privilege to be seated by the bedside of the famous aviator, Russell Ans- pach, convalescing after his thrilling para- chute leap from the Moon. This morning he wanted me to read, for he was very nervous. I picked up the morning paper, and facing me, in great headlines, was the shocking news that President Bricker had caused Elsie Waines, his private secretary, to announce his veto of the Direct Primary Bill. It had been championed by Walter Elliott in t-he House and Ray Keller in the Senate. But even their unexcelled art of persuasion proved of no avail against the sturdy conviction of our President and his senatorial champion, Bob Johnson. Little we dreamed during our High School days that members of our class would play such an important part in the ruination of our nation. Our only hope is that Irene Dillon from her seat on the Supreme Court bench will adjudge this bill unconstitutional. We continued to leaf thru the paper. Suddenly we noted that June Dennis had been made Treasurer of the J. Pierpont Morgan Banking Company, and at last we were grateful that we had been permitted to give her such a, good introduction to the problems of high finance during our High School days. We turn ong the stock market discloses Emmie Buck still holding a corner on the chicken market, despite Evelyn Knapp's fight to break it. Much of Emmie's success, I hear, is due to his efficient busi- ness manager, Charlie Lysinger. fWe won- der if Charles has had time to growl? We looked on thru the paper thinking that we could not possibly find another classmate who had attained such fame, but just then we saw Francis Guthrie pictured as leader of the Civic Opera, which is being guaranteed by t-he philanthropic gifts of Ronald S-houp, Czar of Baseballdom. CD0 you suppose both are marriedlj We read an account of Harvard's 'victory over Yale. That brings to my mind the fact that George Reichert, Jr., is Professor of Municipal Government there. Time was dragging to the extent that we now glanced thru the advertising and there again I discovered names that were dear to both of us. Bill Knapp advertised as a bustling real estate dealer, while Mabel Snyder and Edith Waines were urging the world to buy sugar and spice and every- thing nice. And there was Paul Valk, now an engineering magnate, lauding his new viaduct from High School Avenue to Broad- way. We also noticed that John Moore, as President of the Shoe Shiner's League of America, is pushing the sale of discarded dental chairs for shining parlors. Ross Stroup is his purchasing agent. Hazel Arm- strong is still advertising as a. sixteen year old mannequin fand she looks itl. Evelyn Hunter is manager of an exclusive millinery shoppe. Laying the morning paper aside, I picked up the last American Magazine to read a short stoiry written by our own Doris Adams, but we could not decide whether it was impressionistic or of the humorous type. Here were also some good reviews by Alice Shoup. But Russell wanted me to read from the Ladies Home Journal, since it was ed- ited by Paul Pitney. We found there Aids for the Housewife, by Mary Allwein, and a course in home dressmaking by Phyllesse Tylocke, 300 Rush Street, Chicago. An ad- vertisement for Paramount Week told of Marie Strausbaugh, featuring with Edna Fisher, in Why Men Leave Home. There was also a picture of Margaret Barkdull's famous orchestra consisting of Margaret Boyce, Howard Guthrie, the portly Royal Kirkpatrick, and Thelma Randall. They say im '4 si E323
