Gfass Qyrop lzecy Now I am reclining in my comfortable chair and recalling the scenes projected last night from our new slide machine clown at the Upper Leacock Alumni Club. The year is 1955. One slide showed the famed traiiic officer, Robert Gamber, directing automobile traffic on 5th Avenue. fYes, there are still automobiles and tires.J He stood before an ambulance which contained three competent nurses: Betty Lou Dussinger, Betty Hoover, and Vera Mellinger. There was shown a picture of a typical dental hygienist, Dorothy Esbenshade. Other pictures showed Eleanor Spangler as a laboratory technician, and Mar- jorie Witman on board an air liner where she is hostess. The pictures were concluded with a reel of cartoons drawn by the eminent artist and poet, Benjamin Krouse. g In my reminiscence I recall the events that occurred on my jour- ney home from a long journey. In New York I heard a chorus of female voices under the direction of Dorothy Graybill. In the post ofiice of my home town I received my mail from the postal clerk, Leon Grabill. He was assisted by Harold Wenger. Among the staff of efficient secretaries there were Pauline Snader and lean Spatz. On the wall was a poster containing photographs of some of the agricultural plants and fertilizers which evolved from the efforts of the agricultural chemist, Claude Hess. Other pictures of crops raised by Amos Sands were there. When I was ready to leave for a trip to the sunny south, I drove to the railroad station to obtain a ticket, which was sold to me by Roscoe Miller. Here I met lVlary Ruoss, beautician, who informed me that I could no longer receive permanent waves, because of another tin- foil shortage. Evaline Alexander was on board the train to Florida, where she will cross the waters to Cuba, and from there to South America. V Recently John Parmer has risen to a prominent position on the staff of a paramount New York newspaper. Allan Bewley and Leroy Evans are co-managers of a grocery store. Several weeks ago I visited my niece at a new Brooklyn high school. In the gymnasium I noticed their basketball team practicing under the leadership of the coach, Dale Keener. Irene Groff, who is teaching primary work at the school, pointed out the mathematics teacher, Rus- sell Hillegass. I understand he is preparing to leave for a position as mathematician at Yale. Ah, yes! Dear were those days at Upper Leacock. Would that we were back again! ' A T201
