Glen Wd! We, the members of the graduating class of l949, in order to assure success to our less fortunate school friends, do here- by resort to the means of making a class will to guarantee their success. We believe-as other classes must have thought of themselves-that we are mem- bers of the most refined, best educated, and accomplished class that has passed through the doors of Sunbury High School in many years. The teachers of our four year course are, in our opinion, the best. We can now look down without fear of falling because we have come this far by steps. The under-classes can only look up to us and sigh in astonishment. Proud teachers guard fond memories of our perfect recitations in class. We have held them spellbound for four years. ln some cases, the teacher has kept our classmates for another year in order to gain more knowledge from them. lf they have benefited from us, we are happy. Hoping for your success, we wish to en- dow you with the following assets to help you succeed: We, the members of the class of l949 of Sunbury High School, City of Sunbury, County of Delaware, and State of Ohio, being of graduating age and sound mind and memory, do make, publish, and de- clare this to be our last will and testa- ment. lt is the wish of the class of '49 to dis- pose of all personal property in this man- ner: I, Edna Mae Barney, will my ability to skip school to Ann Lenhart. l, Rita Barnhard, will my temper to Beverly Todd. l, Don Carter, will my athletic ability to Andy Hollingshead.

Glam P Time: 1960 Place: Deshler Wallick Hotel Event: Reunion of the class of '49 ln her little penthouse of eighteen rooms in the Deshler-Wallick Hotel, Pat Crowl was preparing to receive an important guest. lt was one of her classmates of '49, loan Lehman, who was making her first appearance as a professional model at Lazarus. loan had learned that Pat had married a rnulti-millionaire and was liv- ing at the Deshler-Wallick. She had ar- ranged to have tea with Pat at 4 p.m. Ioan arrived in a shiny, black, jet-propelled l'im- ousine. The door opened automatically and Ioan stepped out. She walked to the door and rang the bell and a butler an- swered the door. He led her through a brilliantly lighted hall to a small drawing room. Ioan noticed that the butler was very stuck-up. He had his nose so high in the air that his face was barely recog- nizable, but after examining him closely Ioan recognized him to be ex-basketball captain, Bob Edwards. She was then announced. Ioan found Pat waiting for her. A maid entered the room carrying a tray. Ioan recognized her to be Lucille Conklin. She served the tea and left the room. While sipping tea and munching cookies, they talked about what their old classmates were doing. Thelma Root is having quite a time re- writing the dictionary. Evidently she dioln't agree with all the things Noah Webster wrote. Kenneth Presley is official mayor of Sunbury, a suburb of Columbus, which has a population of 2,000. Harva Lee Sparks is in Paris designing clothes. At present she is arguing with the Prime Minister of France about the usefulness of long skirts. Bonnie Ward is a fan dancer with Spike Tones and his City Slickers. She is well liked by the public except by Sally Band, the ex-fan dancer. Small jet-propelled planes have taken the place of the subways in New York. Don Carter is the best pilot of the lines. lf you are wanting to get some place in a hurry or don't want to get there at all, just ride with Don. Cities still have to have tax .collectors Somebody has to do the job, so it might just as well be George Gilbert, and that Page Fourteen is just what he is doing. He says he makes good money. Senator Bill Lake from Ohio is having quite a debate with another Senator about the use of the schools. Senator Lake thinks that school buildings should be de- molished and schools abolished. lt is said that these debates shall go down in history as the Lake and Lake Debates, because he never gives the other senator time to say anything. Lovett Murphy is cultivating . . . a beard. lt has now reached the great length of ten feet. Rita Barnhard is now in competition with Hedda Hopper. They are both try- ing for the Academy Award. Edna Mae Barney is giving Babe Dick- erson a hard time to retain her title as Greatest Woman Athlete. Kenneth Crowl is complete owner and manager of Crowl's Milling Company. He owns mills all over the country and we hear he is progressing very well. Iim Stelzer is now known as Card- shark Charlie. lt seems as though he just can't be beat. Paul Nettlehorst is now known as the best farmer in the state of Ohio. He has really gone at it in earnest and has ful- filled his dream. Bob Meredith has just invented a new type of radio, one that automatically turns off when commercials come on. Mary Ellen Murphy is now living out on the west side of Columbus. She is having quite a time keeping both her hus- band and family under control. Juanita Hart is putting all her efforts and energy into concocting new Epicurian de- lights to remove the Democratic president from the White House. She then hopes to become, as a result of her efforts, head die-titian of the nation through the spoils system. loan l-loskinson has just received the Nobel Prize for her work in medicine. lt seems she has found a new cure for cancer. Helen Gallogly has just received her third divorce decree. She just can't seem to find the right man. Ioan's visit now seemed complete and she hurried to her dressing room, leaving the sun to sink, unaided, behind the little penthouse of eighteen rooms.
