mag., 1949 jke glam nop ecg jar jAe gfaaa of Z9 Thirty It was the evening of June the Tenth, Nineteen hundred Fifty-Nine. It was the class reunion for the class of '49. The scene is the reception room of the Berkshire Country Club, where the group is supposed to meet. Miss Joan Weidman is in charge of the Banquet which is to precede the dancing. Miss Weidman is a very successful Secretary of the club. This is why she was chosen to make the arrangements for the reunion. The time is eight o'clock and the guests are beginning to arrive. Here comes Harold Fleisher and he is doing very well as a salesman. Wien he was in school he always said he wanted to be a salesman, but the rest of the class had their doubts. But he fooled us all. He'll be around to your house one of these days, so watch out, he has a super-sales talk. Harold was our class President so it seems natural that he would be one of the first to arrive. He was hardly here when a yellow cab pulls up to the door. When the door was opened by the driver we saw a person with a lovely hair-do step out. Who else could it be but the one and only Joan Ritter. Her face is very red, this time it is from hurrying and not from laughing. Joan has a thriving beauty shop on North Fifth Street. Perhaps you have seen it? It is Miss Ritter's Beauty Salonf, Of course, the name may soon be changed as Joan has her eyes peeled for some young man. She will be a good catch, too, because she has quite a bit of money. She sits on the sofa as J im Kramer enters. Jim was in the Navy, you know, and we hear he had a girl in every port. ,lust like him! His face is browned from many months in the Tropics. He settles down in a good easy chair and begins to tell the assembled group about his experiences. You know that Jim always had a knack for telling stories. We asked him -if he could do the sailors horn pipe, but he said he was not that good at dancing. While he was telling stories, Nancy Schadler and Dawn Lambert came in together. Nancy is managing a successful business school in New York City. All the big business people come to her, because they know that she turns out the best Secre- taries in the City of New York. It took a lot of hard work on Nancy's part but now she is enjoying the fruit of her toil. She hopes the girls of her Alma Mater will come to her school, because she assures them that they will get a good job. We all believe her, because her word is'as good as gold. Dawn is a Gym teacher in her old Alma Mater. She is doing a bang up job too. We hear that she is coaching a girls' basketball team this year again, and they have hopes of winning the championship. If her team wins the championship this year it will be for the third time. Of course, we all wish her the best of luck. A big Packard rolls up to the door, and Ray Miller and Charles McCane step out. Charles was in the Navy for nine years, but now he runs a big gas station and restaurant on the Pennsylvania Turnpike. While he was in the service he saved enough money to set himself up in business. He is thinking about buying more stations next year,-if he does not buy any he may go back into the service. No matter what Charlie does we all wish him the best of luck. If his luck lasts as long as his crew cut, he will have enough to last him the rest of his life. Ray Miller is, also, very successful in the building supply business. He followed right in the footsteps of his Dad. He is doing a booming business because the rate of new homes being built right now is higher than it was for the last eight years. He has, also, built a few more apartment houses. So you see that he is doing alright for himself. Curly headed Leo comes in next. Mutz does not have one regular job. He is more or less a ,lack-of-all-Trades. Right now he is not working, for you see, he is
