Carolyn Corkill, outstanding woman writer of our time, is also a member of our graduating class. Carolyn is in New York now for the grand opening of the movie, ‘Skid Row,” taken from her novel. This is exactly half of our class. Scattered throughout the world, they have achieved success, and I am proud to claim them as classmates. The other half, however, are right here in our own fair city. They have helped in their way to make Warrenton what it is today. On East Skipanon street, you can find the most modern garage in Warren- ton. Owner, Bill Coffey. Bill started by working in his father’s garage ten years ago. Down the street farther, on 62nd street, stands Wilson's Drug Store. Owners, F. M. Wilson Son, Bob. Bob has been in charge of the business for several years since his father’s retirement. One of our classmates did not select a career in the strictest sense of the word. She has, however made a career out of her home life. In last months, Housewife Magazine,” Arvella Karnes was chosen housewife of the year. Arvella is a member of the class of ‘50. Gloria Nichols, another of our classmates, can be found at Warrenton High School where she is teaching English, journalism and Latin. Julie Olson's beauty salon on Main Street is doing a wonderful business. Julie, a member of the class of ‘50, is indeed a success. The last three members of the class aren't actually settled here in War- renton, their businesses keep them traveling quite frequently. Their homes are here, so we are proud to have them as citizens. My very good friend, Loren Marsh, once a mechanic and racing car driver, is now a multi-millionaire promoter. You all remember Loren who twice drove in the Indianapolis five-hundred-mile race and finally won the event. Norman Doney, star quarterback for the New York Giants, is in town now waiting for the grand apening of professional football this fall. There is some talk that Norman may soon become manager of the Giants. We hope so. Last but far from least, is Gary Walker. Gary is a graduate of the Univer- sity of Oregon, where he made the All-American basketball team for two years. He is now President of the Oregn Athletic Association. This finishes my report on the Warrenton High School graduating class of 1950. I am sure that all of the people of Warrenton are proud of the m. I am proud and happy to be a member of this class of successful people. That's all the time now so until tomorrow night when I shall be back with my regular features. Good night. 15
