Class llruplfery The first picure that comes into view is a picture of my old classmate, Elsie Apple. She is a private secretary of the president of National Cash Register, in Dayton. The next scene takes place in a drug store, where we see Jack Barga as proprietor. Here we see Marion Barton, who has become a very successful farmer. We now see the new orchestra leader in our school. At first we don’t recognize her, but we see that it is one of our most talented classmates, Betty Blue. We see another new teacher in our school, who is Marvin Brandt, the Vocational Agriculture instructor. Who is that traveling salsman at the neighbor’s house? When he turns around, we see that it is Bernard Bruns, who is selling women’s lingerie. The lady at the door looks like Mary Bess Fiebiger. Do you suppose her interest lies entirely in the lingerie? We are now in Bradford, where we are watching a football game between Versailles and Bradford. But look! This is a surprise! Who is Bradford’s coach? Why, it is Paul Cool. A restaurant moves up in our view, where we see Joe Dirksen as the head waiter. Here, on the street corner in Chicago, we find Walter Stover passing out ballots, which state that he is the candidate for mayor on the Republican ticket. We next see Henry Etter, the Brethren minister. Before him stands a couple who are being married. Looking closer, we find that it is John Gasson and Betty Koverman. John has taken over his father’s poultry business. Who are those nurses walking toward the hospital? As they come closer, we discover that it is June Shuff and Odette Frantz. After a brief visit with them, we learn that Odette is the superintendent of the hospital, and June is the adviser. Next we visit the Buckeye Overall Co., where we see Betty Hole as an inspector. Our next scene takes us inside a doctor’s office, where we see John Houser as the doctor. He must be a good M. D., as his office is full of patients. Page Twenty-six
