I 2225532 - - WF Good evening everyone. This is Doug Horst speaking to you from the top of the Monroe Tower, recently built in memory of the late Thomas Monroe. It is my priv- ilege to be able to broadcast to you for a short period the reunion of the Class of 1942. We have with us tonight that number one band of the country - none other than Charles Daugherty's Swingadeers! At the table directly in front of Daugher- ty's band are seated Ralph Kaiser and Frank- lin Delong of the Thompson foundation. From all reports they have been working on an invention to revolutionize the gasoline in- dustry. Miss Elaine Madsen, top ranking woman brain surgeon and her assistant, Miss Louise Luse. are also at that table. Stepping now from the elevator are Miss Julia Ciherna, associate editor of Collier's and Robert Krull, serial writer for Liberty magazine. Just behind them I believe that I recognize Nile Miller and Clarence Smagala. partner owners of the Miller-Smagala Midget Racing Establishment. Well, I see that everybody is not literally awake and enthusiastic about this reunion. Although I cannot see his face from under that newspaper, it would not be hard to guess that it is none other than Don Briggs, bliss- ful proprietor of the Peaceful Rest Club. There seems to be quite a heated argument going on over at the table to my left. Coach Robert Fitch, head basketball coach of Yale is quite excited over the fact that Le Roy Tomlinson, former Harvard man believes that the chances of Yale's winning this year in basketball are quite slim. Doctors Samp- sell and Warner are quite disturbed by the bickering of the two rivals. Well, I see they have arrived at last! Who? None other than those two Wizards of the Soil , Glenn Fetterolf and Kenneth Krull. Their experiments with the Malarky Bean have changed the whole concept in the art of farming. Doug Roll, Admiral in the U. S. Navy. is accompanying the exotic society tatler, 26 O Jane Arner. This is their first reunion since high school age. They seem to be enjoying themselves to the utmost. Who wouldn't? The band is, by request of Henry Hall and Miss Shirleyanne Guetthoff, fthat famous dancing teaml playing the new hit Tanger- ine Walk . This song, by the way, was written by Marilyn Orr and published by Weiss, Hill, Holtom. and Carpenter Publish- ing Co. This is the only major company of this type run completely by women. Wallace Scott, that modernizing executive of the J. C. Penney Co. is here tonight with his secretary, Miss Jeanne Harmon. Jim Butler and Myrl Ruggles of the John Deere Co. are getting a big kick of tying Mr. Scott's tails of his coat to the chair while he is not looking. I see that that brilliant District Attorney from the Detroit area, Wilbur Pierce, has brought his male secretary, Francis McCar- thy, with him to this reunion tonight. Jo Ann Thomas, biggest box office draw since Rooney, is coming in now along with her usual fanfare of press agents and reporters. In the background we see Robert Hughes. flying cadet. The gowns worn by the ladies here tonight for the most part, were designed by Dorothy Zander, who is dancing directly in front of me now, as chic and refreshing as her stun- ning creations. Dancing with Miss Zander is play boy Donald Poffenberger, who might be counted one of the zero's of the four hundred. Oh. Oh, here comes three efhcient nurses. Patricia Crose, Marie Fisher and Phyllis Abshire. of Luegge Sanitarium, founded by that eminent and benevolent millionaire, Jimmy Malcolm, who incidentally, gave up a fabulous fortune to pursue the ministry. And-Sorry ladies and gentlemen, but the blinker says that my time is about up so I must bid you all a pleasant good-night and turn you back to the National Broadcasting Company.
