LODIIIIIG IIITU THE FUTURE Twenty years had passed slnce the hallways of Holland Hugh School reverberated w1th the footsteps of the departlng Semor class twenty years of toll and progress Bemg em ployed by one of the local newspapers the Eppard Scandals I was requested to make a survey of the progress and actlvttres made by the Holland graduatmg class of 1950 Havrng heard that a number of our graduatlng class were ltvmg In Florlda I declded to make my f1rst v1s1t there Upon arrlval I reglstered at the Harold Wh1te Hotel where Norman Carter was the advertxslng manager After several hours of l1fe ln thrs excluslve hotel I dlscovered that others of my earher acquamtances had been tempted by the allur mg advertlsements and had taken up T951 dence rn the other apartments Into the wee hours of the mornmg laughter song and gay muslc drlfted from the penthouse where Bob Grlsdorf now rdolrzed by m1ll1ons of women for h1s croorung of songs royally entertamed hrs guests He told me that the featured smger rn the Bambow Boom was the blonde Barbara Iones She IS ga1n1ng wxde acclalm w1th her unlque 1nterpretat1on of popular songs Wlth the break of dawn came the end of the party and those present trooped home to get a much needed rest As I had a ten oclock appomtment w1th lxm Eubank now the Walter Wznchell of Palm Beach I arose at nlne thlrty fmrshed dressmg and ordered a hearty
