Simmons was on hand trying to sell her the idea that the only thing for her to consider right at present was making a series of short features for Simmons' Screen Symphonies, incorporated. As this last picture faded, I realized that one member of the class of '32 had not appeared. Just then Betty Johnston entered her famous husband's laboratory to remind him of an engagement for the evening. I apologized for having kept him so long and although they insisted that I stay for a bite of supper. I hastened to make my departure. I stepped out on to the fast darkening streets of New York with vivid impressions of the sights I had just witnessed still fresh in my mind and sauntering up Fifth Avenue, I was quite unable to estimate the volumes, the quantities of changes, both great and small, that had taken place since we had last been together, the day of our graduation in 1932. BETTY MATTOON. (Abridged) CLASS WILL OF '32 We, the members of the Senior Class, leave this as our last will and testament. We hereby bequeath our most admirable qualities to our worthy underclassmen: Dorothy Tripp wills her sweet femininity to Betty Ewing. Denny Emerick bestows upon Mary Garvin his golden silence. Betty Rose Williams wills to Bonnie Stoltz her ability to always say the right thing. John Gramling wills that certain way to David Folkerth. Catharine Postlewaite wills her wit and humor to Emily Weber. Duke Clark bestows upon Grant Crane his persuasive power of speech. Loretta Gaetz wills her long hair to Mimi Younger. Richard Gardner wills his oratorical ability in class to Bill Lohmeyer. Harriet Kinney wills to Betty Lee McFeely her collection of jewelry. Jackson Smythe (plain Smith to us) wills his breezy way to Peggy Bell. Jimmy Faught wills his appearance to Duffee. Alice Hohenstine bestows on Elizabeth Dale Clark her Garbo aspirations. Jimmie Miller wills his mischievousness to Brandt Tefft. Betty Johnston bestows upon Ruth Knoderer her up-tilted nose. Mose Slatter wills his driving rights to Cardy Aschinger. Bertha Drayer wills to Helen Jones her ever-waving hair. Bee Dunn wills her excellent grades to Ruth Balthaser. Jack Shank wills to John Harmon his blind dates. Betty Hoffman wills her constant good humor to Mary Jane Benbow. Tom Simmons bestows his Terpsichorean Toe on Carl Palmer. Helen Hatch wills her Big Brown Eyes to Tissie Lohmeyer. Bob Kern wills his form (golf) to George Sargent. Betty Howe bestows her English sense (absence) of humor upon Howard Smith. Ernie Mason wills her indifference to boys to Jane Lentz. Dick Dressel wills his manners to Jack Devaney. Betsy Swartwout wills her devotion to Ann Stellhorn. Junior Mathews bestows his interest in the fair sex to Joe Mason. Margaret Mechem wills to Pat Schenk her driving ability(?). Norris Hayhurst bestows his curly hair on Margy Kennedy. Jimmie Petro wills that Pepsodent smile to Lloyd Osborne. Betty Mattoon wills her ambitions in opera singing to Bill Gillespie. Mac bequeaths to his poor unsuspecting successor the care and guidance of the future Senior Class. In testimony whereof, we, the Senior Class, have hereunto set our seal. CLASS OF '32 —Ernestine Mason —Helen Hatch —Catharine Postlewaite Page twenty-three

CLASS POEM The years have flown on the wings of time, And the wings of time are fleeting, So here's a wish before we part, And a friendly heartfelt greeting. Some to the North and some to the South, For our ways will be dividing; And some to the East and some to the West, In different directions abiding. And some will be great, and some will be small: For now our ways must sever, But all will remember these high school years. And love and revere them forever. And none will forget the joys we've had. Fond memories will be glowing In the heart of each as he passes on, With our blessing for his going. Some to the North, and some to the South; Wherever we'll all be roaming, As parting draws near, here's a loving farewell; ‘Ere the footsteps fade in the gloaming. BETTY JOHNSTON. Page twenty-five
