The recording went as follows: uPrograms are being issued, to the guests as they arrive, by two small children, gowned identically. As we look around while the guests are set- ' tling themselves, we see one large table set in the shape of a horseshoe. It is a beautiful table, decorated with red roses. White lace table cloths'on. all of the tables, honestly red roses everywhere, besides richly gowned women, and well tailored gentlemen. Surely no other class could have pros- pered so well. It is most impressive.n HThe old class officers are seated at the center of the horseshoe with the Torgersons and Miss Wolf seated to the left. Seated to the right is Mr. and Mrs. Allen. Mr. Allen is seated in a wheel chair. The story we received was that he tumbled from a horse when the horse became frightened by a rabbit. He suffered a splintered knee cap, which has laid him up for a few weeks now. He will be seventy his next birthday and I must say, he hasnlt changed much except the fact that he has no hair. He has lost a great deal of weight and has gained a lot more vigor. His great love for the outdoor life has helped to keep him in good healthghsaid the comentator. nHis wife has become stately with age. She could pass for a great many years younger. A very proud grandmother too, I must add.N NThe mistress of ceremonies is getting ready to speak. Shall we listen?U NThe meeting will now be called to order. We are very happy to see so many of our former school mates here tonight. As secretary of the class of '52, I am glad to report that therevs only one absent here this evening, formerly Pat Vonts,W read Jackie. NI think that is very good, don't you all agree?n Sound of applause was heard. UNext I shall read the minutes of the last meeting.W Jackie quoted, WThe meeting came to order in the band room. What the school should do with the money we left them, was the first thing to be discussed. After this was decided, once again we poured over the high lights of our senior trip. Suggestion by Hubert Fitzjarraldfwe set a date for a class reunion-unanimously accepted. The date was decided upon June 15, 1972. The next few moments were spent on congratulating each other on receiving a diploma. Some thought they might not make it, but to everyone's joyg they did. UOur class motto, 'The distance is nothing, it is only the first step that countsl, was discussed by Mrs. Torgerson. She remarked that it was a true motto, which we should remember always, since the time to take the step was now. It was a very good talk. We bid each other adieuz meeting was dismissed, and we all departed. That ends the minutes of May lh, l952,W nNow we would like to hear from our dear, old principal, Mr. Allen,W continued Jackie. As the applause drifted away, Mr. Allen spoke. WWell, children, it is very fine to see all of you again. Though it seems only yesterday, it has been several years ago since we romped together through the halls of Sweetser High. I remember all of your pasts as well as I do my own. As you no doubt know, I retired the next year after you children graduated. Gouldn't stand it any more, I guess. And, oh yes, I know you're all dying to know who this handsome redheaded fellow is sitting beside me. By the way, that red hair reminds me of a funny story I heard the other day----- Mrs. Allen suddenly developed a severe cough which caused her to lean over and nudge the old gentleman. 00h yes, as I was saying--what was I saying? Oh yes, may I introduce to you Mr. Raymond Bowser. You people would probably recognize him with out his toupe. I'm sure that everyone here will be glad to see you again as well as your old faculty friends, Mr. Bowser.N

nHello, ex-graduates. It has been a long time since I have seen any of you, and no doubt an even longer time since you have seen me. I might say that time has evidently not been hard on you. Ifm very happy to be here and look forward to seeing and talking to all of you later. Thank you,N finished Mr. Bowser in his pleasant sounding voice. Nlfm sure that we all are very glad that you could be with us, also Mr. Bowser,W stated Jackie. UNbw let us hear a life history from the later arriving guests. First, we'll call on Hhs. Joyce Anne Cheesman Rootemyer.N nllm afraid m life since I left high school has been anything but ex- citing. I will briefly tell you what I've been doing, though, if you insist. I took voice after I left Sweetser High. M instructor was a brilliant, young man who had many hopes for me. With this.encouragement, I studied faithfully for five years before I ever sang in any operas. After I had one performance to my credit, I soon married my instructor. He has been m inspiration ever since. He has brought me nothing but success---and hap- piness, too. M two daughtersawe inNew York with m parents. I wish you could see them, for I am very proud of them. My latest opera is Roberta. It is conducted by my husband. I guess that is all there is about myself.W WWe're glad to have you with us, my dear,U exclaimed the mistress of ceremonies. . NYes, old chap, and Ilm sure we'd enjoy hearing you sing a wee bit of Piacciaho,U called Hubert from the front table. '-ntffter some coaxing, Joyce rose and went to the microphone in front of Norman Campbellis orchestra. Soon the golden tones were floating through the auditorium. When the clapping had died down some, Jackie stepped into the spot light once again. vuext person to speak is none other than Miss Peggy Hunt.N Peggy rose slowly. She was dressed in a sharp locking outfit. Her red hair pulled up in a mass of curls on the back of her head. She was definitely beautiful. nDear friends, I'm sure none of you could have lived a more exciting and thrilling life than I have. Itls a cinch that I wasted my time in school, but I made up for it. Ifm now the only lady in the world who has fourteen oil wells on twenty acres of my two thousand acre ranch in Texas: Please don't get the idea that there's more oil in Texas than anywhere else. Why yesterday morning I went out to feed the chickens and I saw an old hen scratching for her breakfast. First thing I knew she'd struck oilll Believe me, I had a hard time getting all that oil off her pin featherso Still I 4 don't want all you other little state fellows to feel small just because Texas is so big. Of course, Texas could slip ten or eleven of your wee states inside it with no trouble at all. Most people from Texas don't talk about anything else but Texas. Not me, I got plenty of other things to talk about besides Texas. People in Texas just don't realize that other states besides Texas has blue skies. CEven if ours are bluerlj Other states besides Texas have crops and oil wells. Tf3Xc'3.Soooooo'ooooo00o x WThank you Gabriel Heater,N interrupted Jackie. NNow I have just re- ceived a special request for Mr. Bill Pollard to come forth and recite his latest master piece. We certainly are proud of our poet,Bill.U Bill's voice had acquired a richness through the years that seemed to render a spell over hiszaudience. He read as only a true artist could in- terpret his own work with the feelings of life and death. It was wonderful. As soon as the sounds of the thunderous applause died away, Hubert spoke. UThat was certainly a pipt You don't realize how much good poetry means to a man of my status. Really relaxes me. Now Miss Genevieve Sanders will come forth and give a full account of her past and present life.U
