It's almost time for the barge, so to Riverside Drive we take ourselves. Look, here it comes now! We can't quite tell who the king and queen are - Why, it's EARL RAYMOND and JEAN WALKER. As this spectacular barge, designed by GAYLE WEY, director of the Cotton Carnival Association, comes in sight, Mayor MIKE MOYERS de- livers his speech and turns the key to the city over to the King and Queen of Cotton. He also welcomes King Cotton's Ambassador, Maid FRANCES LOVING and her alternates DONNA SELLARS and MARY HELEN WHITE. Leaving the barge, we dash to Main Street to watch the parade. Standing next to us are RUTH HOUPT, MARY JANE DUNCAN, ESTER KING, MARY ALICE KUMMERER, JACKIE NEFF and ETTA LOU ROSS. As the parade comes into sight, we see many familiar faces among the boys in the Marine band - JOE ADAMS, REX WADDELL, LEON- ARD DOSS, JERRY RICHARDSON, T. A. PARKS, STANLEY HARRELL and JIM JOHNSON. Looks as if our class of '54 has taken over the Cotton Carnival. Whom should we see perched upon the Secret Society float but MARY BERRYHILL, BARBARA TUBBS, ROBERT WILROY, JIMMY BOGLE, BETTY PIERCE, AUDREY CALVERT and JIMMY HAWTHORNE. Mounted policemen JOE HARDESTY, REX DURROUGH, GERALD REEVES, ALAN HOLT, JAMES JOHNSON, ROYCE BROOKS and TOMMY MC NATT bring up the end of the parade. Leaving all the excitement, we start iooking for a place to eat. RAGGIO'S SPAGHETTI HOUSE seems the ideal spot. Here we find waiting on tables, -dressed in the perkiest caps and aprons ever, none other than JUANITA AUSTIN, BARBARA CARSON, BEVERLY GUTLIPH, LOR- ETTA DICKSON, SHIRLEY SPAIN and JOAN PRAGER. The place is crowded, and we work our way over to a near-by table and chat with SHIRLEY HUNT, the famous newspaper woman. She brings the good news that JIMMY CWatergunJ HODGES and HUGH Pretty Boy MASON, the funny book thieves, have been captured. Seated with her are FAYE MARLAR, SHIRLEY MC LAURINE and CONNIE PRINCE. Well, look whose here-fresh from victories in the Olympic games - ROY ELIFF, BILLY DERRYBERRY, TOM RILEY, BILLY LANDERS and ALVIN MC DANIEL with their manager-that lady of sports, BARBARA ARMSTRONG. After we have eaten and start to leave, we hear laughing voices at the corner table. Looking over, we see CAROLYN RULEMAN, who has iust returned from Africa where she has been hunting wild animals for ELAINE PATTERSON'S zoo. With her, we see members of her th irty-four safari - MARTHA LOGAN, GRACE BUTLER, JEAN REED, CAROLYN GRADY, SHIRLEY COX, PEGGY JAQUES and JACKIE TOOMS. Finally, we leave, and all exhausted we start for the hotel. On the way we stop to buy a paper from BOBBY RYAN. Stepping into the street, we were almost run over by MARGARET MC TYIER zooming by in a sharp yellow caddy. Back at the hotel we find a number of our old class- mates sitting in the lobby. JEANNETTE ANDERSON, AU- TREY ARMOUR, BARBARA PENNINGTON, NAOME CRITTENDON, MAE DAVIDSON and MAUREEN DAVIS have a fast game of Old Maid going. Over in the cor- ner we see GINGER FORD playing solitaire. Must be love again! Gathered around the television are SHIRLEY DONNA- HUE, JOYCE DOYLE, SHARON DUKE, SHIRLEY DUNA- WAY and JOAN FEINGOLD. The attraction on the screen is MINNIE JO DEPRIEST, who has iust won first place on ROBERT GREGG'S talent show. She won a trip to Europe by way of GEORGE HARDESTY'S airlines. As time passes, more of our old friends stroll in. This must be a night for former Treadwellites! Coming in all out of breath are DORIS COLEMAN, JEANETTE COLLI- SON, RICHARD DORAN, PEGGY GUESS, JEANNETTE HEINZ, BILL MOSS, RONNIE CLICK and DOROTHY WOLFE laughing and talking about Memphis' great Cotton Carnival. Music comes from the direction of the piano. Glancing over, we see JUANITA OWEN, MARY PYRON, BOBBIE ROBINSON, BARBARA SPRINGER, THEL- MA TRACY, BETTY WALKER and JUANITA WATSON ac- companied by DANICE WATTS. Very tired and sleepy, we drift off to our rooms. The next morning we are awakened very early by SHERI BURK, REBA COX, EUNICE MC GREGGOR, CLAUDINE BROWN and BOBBY ANN CALCOTE waiting to clean our rooms. After a hurried breakfast, which was brought to us by ROBERTA BOONE, we get ready to depart. All good things must come to an end, and as we ride down the elevator, we are ioined by SHELBY WEB- BER, BERNICE BERCHAM, JO ANN HERRON, MERNELL CLIMER, MARGARET LOWERY, NADINE NAQUIN, and JOAN NOE. Our car was brought to us by JOHN WAYNE VAN VIIDDLESWOARTH. Waving good-bye tolARLENE ISHADDIX, CAROLYN SMITH, AND AUDRE STICKNEY, we start our long iourney home. It's been fun. Glad we could get together, Class of '54.
