The year following graduation Catherine Gormley and her folks moved to Cali- fornia. She seems to have an enjoyable time opening fan mail, because she is now secre- tary to one of the most famous stars in Hollywood. Bill Stover has been uite successful as a farmer and was awarded a rize for fl P growing the largest ears in the Middle West-that is, ears of corn. Mary Friese is in Africa on a hunting expedition with her husband. They are bringing back many species, which will be given to the New York Museum. They are also bringing back two others for the school. Jack Peffer has a position with the government and is giving lectures throughout the United States on agricultural extension work How to Raise Umbrellas. Joe Rademaker, having finished college, established himself a photography busi- ness. Of late he has been successful in developing-pneumonia. A wealthy friend of Betty Hitsman took her to Europe. What a graduation present for her! Now she is an instructress in a dramatic school in Switzerland. Another one of this class who proved a success is Bob Stanley. He is a repre- sentative in Argentina for the 'Holeless Wholesome Doughnut Factory., Mary Keil has married into a family by the name of Ballinger, and the union has been blessed with two children, Mary and Junior. Marie Gorman, having given up her profession of nursing, is now a professor in the Tella Lot Correspondence School. Although she entered Business College after graduating, Mary Goff gave up the idea of becoming a secretary, and owns one of the largest dude ranches in Wyoming. Bob Harber, who spent his Senior year at St. Paul, has returned to his home town, Fort Wayne, and started a school of dancing for the deaf and dumb girls of the city. He has a good time swinging the dumb-belles. Achieving her one and only ambition, Bettie Wood is a graduate nurse working in a large hospital in Chicago. She considers herself a dazzling success. Her last fifty patients almost pulled through. Last but not least, Jack Tinkle, having received every degree possible, is now using his degrees to some advantage! He is a weather forecaster! Lachesis and Atropos were delighted with the work so well done by Clothos, who had finished her story. Covering the fire Clothos said, Well, Atropos, .now that my work is over and your time has come, I hope that you wfill be able to keep and provide for them in the future as I have in the pastf' She then lay down by the other Fates, exhausted from her long years of hard work and the cave was enveloped in a weird silence. -MARY YOHLER '41 Page I6

1940-41: At long last Seniors-and dignified, too. Great things to do. Paulist staff elected. Joe Rademaker and Catherine Gormley elected Editor and Assistant Ed- itor, respectively. Joe, by the way, was the first editor ever to be elected unanimously. Lorraine Cassidy failed to return in September, while Beverly Behr and Gene Medlen left about the end of the first semester. Jack Peffer and Bob Harber came to ole St. Paul. During the months that followed there came another round of activities to help raise money for the publication of the Paulist. George Lanning donated two exquisite hand made crucifixes to the Senior class for raising Paulist funds. The Paulist was finally compiled and sent to press. Catherine Gormley, Mary Keil, and Mary Yohler really made those typewriters hum. Mary Friese was elected May Queen by an overwhelming high school vote the last of March. The May Procession and Crowning of Our Blessed Lady took place on the first Sunday in May. On May 29 we were guests of the Junior class at the Annual Junior-Senior Banquet. Everyone thor- oughly enjoyed themselves at both the Banquet, and the Prom which followed. Well, the final day has arrived. june--Graduation Day. We are sincerely sad- dened, even on this great day, to be leaving St. Paul High and the many pleasant mem- ories that linger in its halls for us.

It was a dark and dreary night and the rain was falling heavily outside the cave. A crash of thunder and a bolt of lightning streaked across the three figures and one of them suddenly awakened. Clothos, the oldest of the three Fates, spoke: Come 'tis time you were up. I hate to awaken you from your pleasant dreams but we have work to do. Our work con- cerns the class of St. Paul High School who graduated ten years ago this very night. Would you like to hear my story of their eventful lives and accomplishments? Most assuredly, agreed the others eagerly. Well, continued the oldest of the three Fates, it goes this way: 'age I 5
