2794 Iohn met Mrs. Cyril Van Witherspoon III, nee Elizabeth Skrabak. F.lizabeth's husband is chief surgeon on the hospital's staff, with Helen Crampsie as his assistant surgical nurse. Iourneying onward to the Mid-West, I discern many more familiar faces. In Chicago, Philomena Pavone heads the Brent College for Beauticians. The hair styles she has created are nationwide because of their uniqueness. Phil- omena's studio was designed and remodeled by those incomparable interior decorators, Dolores E. Bartley and Elizabeth L. Camp. Not far away, Doctor Catherine O'Donnell, M. D., carries on her practice in her own private hospital. Inez McCu1lion, R. N., is an asset to the institu- tion, proving her capability as supervisor of nurses. The modern laboratory of this hospital is conducted by Bernadine Konicki, who is furthering her studies in phrenology. Heeding the call of the Far West, we find Theresa Ogozalek vacationing in Nevada, where she hopes to obtain some scenic color and atmosphere for her forthcoming poetry. You are already acquainted with her Students Anthology. I have traversed the vast territory of the United States and it is with pleas- ure I enter San Francisco, California, for here I find Commissioner Kieran Dale of the city police. He was influential in uncovering the espionage plot on the waterfronts of this great metropolis. On Pier 62, the largest refueling base for both ships and tankers, is owned and managed by Ioseph S. Kocon and Francis I. Stachina, the great petroleum magnates. The liner, UU. S. S. Ronsonf' raised anchor and embarked on a pleasure cruise to the Philippines from this pier. On board were Ieanne Kelly and Mary Mayzel. Ieanne, an eminent physician, is bound for the South Sea islands where she will continue her experiments for the cure of rare tropical fevers. Mary, however, will go on to Hong Kong, China, where her newest film is in casting. She will portray the heroine opposite Niles Astor, famous screen star. As you see, these friends of mine have traveled far and wide. Irene Petrich has recently returned from France, where she received her degree of Master of Fine Arts. She was graduated with highest honors from the Paris Con- servatory of Music. Her close friend and associate, Helen Galgoci, is also in Paris, for she is superintendent of the Bequerel Foundation for the Advance- ment of Uranium Study. She recently aided Dr. Benreau in his discovery of the ninety-seventh element. Only a few weeks ago, Helen met an old friend and colleague, Ann Boyle, who has completed her course of study in labora- tory technology at the Sorbonne Institute, Paris. Anne and Helen had dinner together at the Cafe de Rue. Suddenly an amiable photographer snapped their picture. Who was behind the camera? You've guessed it! It was none other than Ieanne Gallagher, who had climbed the heights to fame as Holly- wood's foremost protographer. Ieanne is touring Europe in order to find some picturesque spot for a sequence in Van Grant Productions' new film. These three had quite a night for renewing acquaintances and for that matter, so have I. In fact, this resume? has left me breathless. I hope and trust the following years shall prove as profitable for the Class of '46 as has the short ldicade since they have ventured from the mantle of their beloved Alma ater.
