Q I JL Klum, Jlmfoful, We boarded the train at Sycamore station ready and eager to go. Our first eight stops were minor ones but we enjoyed our visit in each one very much. The ninth stop, Columbus, was all we had waited for. We looked the town over good before starting to take part in any events. On October 27, l943, we took part in the first event. lt was called Freshman lnitiation. We enjoyed the charming costumes and dresses that were styled that day even though we were wearing them. During our stay in Columbus, one of our fellow passengers, Bob Ekle- berry, was put on the Varsity Basketball team. We lingered. We lingered in Columbus for some time but soon moved on our way. Chicago! All out for Chicago! The tenth stop on our way and after taking count of our passenger list we found that there were now 3l passen- gers instead of 32. We had lost one between stations. While in Chicago we decided we could become actors and actresses so we put on a play- Hillbilly Courtship which was a great success. During our brief stay in Chicago another one of our boys, Charles Lamb, was put on the Varsity Basketball team. We also had the good fortune to have three of our girl classmates elected as cheerleaders. They were: .lean Gregg, Helen McCormick, and Christina Everheart. Next stop, Denver! All outl While in Denver we purchased our Junior class rings. We were very proud of these and could hardly wait until we got them. To make a little money while there, we sold magazines to all our friends and neighbors. This money was put away for future use while on our trip. We also sold pop and popcorn at the Basketball games for finances. During our visit in Denver we put on another successful play, .lumpin' Jupiter. To top our visit here we went to a formal dance-Jr.-Sr. Banquet, spon- sored by us. The passengers put their best outfits on and had a gala time iespecially when the stars started to falll. Moving on our way we finally stopped in. San Francisco, with a passenger list of only 22. Here we took in a few parties and put on another play, Her Emergency Husband. We really believe this play was the cause of Mary Etta Bell and Annabelle Hufford getting married. On Jr.-Sr. Day we split the games between us and shared in the fun. Some of our classmates played on the Varsity team and four of the belles of the class were cheerleaders.

'JL glam, Jhbiony, f6'nn5L.j We went to parties galore and took in another grand banquet. This one was especially for us. Also we were taken into the Alumni. We enjoyed the banquet that they had for us. The climax came when we were handed our diplomas for good work all twelve years at Commencement on May 23, l946, Our trip was enjoyed very much by everyone and even though we went through some scrapes, we all stuck together on the true course. So bid us Farewell as we each enter into our own seperate part of the world. '11, flaw, p!1D,t2h.QiClj, SENIORS OF '46 They tell me there's no harm in dreaming, so I set myself down in the good-ole-easy chair, with a coke by my side, II may need refreshmentl What should appear before me but my old classmates of Sycamore High ten years hence. According to the Queen of Dreams this is what they have, shall we say, accomplished? JOHN BROWN has started the famous Brown Bombers Circus tour. He is a wild man, strong man, and trapeze performer and he even sells popcorn between acts. MARY E'l'l'A and Doc are living in Tiffin and have their own cab com- pany. Their children are the cabbies. So far they have five cabs in operation. CHARLES YOUNG is an elevator operator in Penny's. That is the only way he could keep up with people. MARCILE and Mick are living in Alaska and have a very fine fur indus- try, haven't you heard of the famous MICK and CILE coats? CLARABELLE MARTIN is the new Home Demonstration Agent. She demonstrates chiefly new ways to fix olives. DONNA HUSHOUR is still listening in on the confidential business of the playboy HUGH DAVIS, JR., as he reluctantly drops his nickle in the slot at the first phone booth in the Waldorf-Astoria in New York City. Now the Queen of Dreams floats before me and drifting along behind her is a far more domestic side of our class. MIRIAM HETZEL Heimrick was the first to pass our view and I now see that she is very happy mending Bob's shirts and the babies panties. She hopes in a couple of years to let her oldest daughter take over.
