May 25, 1965 Dear Diary, I am sitting at my desk in the quiet John Hopkins Hospital. Today I received a letter from one of my classmates and it made me bring out my old '55 annual and browse through it. I remember when I was a Senior, they never be- leived that I would go through with my plan to be a nurse, but I did and now I'm very happy with my husband, two chil- dren and my job as a nurse, Let's look back through the class and see the goals achieved by the Wentworth High School Class of 1955, It seems that Harold Vaden iinally decided to put his knack for blue print drawing into good use. He is now a well known architect, I bumped into Carolyn Crumpton and the twins fseems Charles Boyd chased her until she finally caught hirnj on the Wentworth Express recently. I'll bet they were both surprized to iind that their driver was W. R. Carver, They probably had a regular class re-union on the company's time. ' I'll bet John Dallas' Hash House has the prettiest electric signs in town, he used to be pretty good with electric gadgets, I tuned in on Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts the other night and who should I hear but Reida Wilson. Rise Stevens had better cling to her laurel's 'cause Rita has the makings of a great singer. Say! Weren't those jets that just landed flown by Bobby Paige and Ray Carrol? Well, I always did say their love for speed would soon get them in the air. I see Betty Jean Carter helping her husband Bobby Turner in their new Zesto place. They own a chain over the country, you know. Inear Doris Carterisaveryefficient wife, Maybe her Home Economics did her some good after all. Patsy Patterson, back at ole W. H. S. after a seige in college, is the girls' coach and physical education teacher, Peggy Walker decided to follow her husband, She's working near the Air Force base as a personnel worker, Ruth Kelly, Ola Hutchins, and Audrey Parrish are now secretaries for their husbands. They were always good in typing, but no one ever guessed they would marry their boss, Barbara Dallas and Helen Lindsey are making quite a place for themselves in the nursing profession, Anne Quackenbush is married - She's spending all her time raising four little Paschals. Billy Knighten is now county coroner, He'll get the Class of '55 yet! Say, VVhat's this? Buy your tickets for the game tonight, Franklin Witty formerly of Wentworth, now stars for the New York Yankees. Betty Fretwell and husband are owners of Wentworth Soda Shoppee. She was ducking the revenue man because she used her ovsm bookkeeping system. Edward Meadow is making big moneyg at least he was before his press broke down. Billie Jarrell got a scholarship to college because of her cheerleading abilities, and you know what? She's still there, coaching those famous college cheerleaders. Jack Roberts' dancing feet finally paid off. He's starring in the latest MGM musical. The Indianapolis Race just ended and who should step out of the winning car but Albert Vernon. Sarah Lemons, a talented interior decorator, is now married to an Air Force officer, Donald Gunn, always was good at basketball, but we never dreamed he would someday play for the Minneapolis Lakers! Nancy Stewart married her ole flame and settled down to raise a family, Malcolm Cox and John McCollum are two of the most successful farmers of our day. The Collins' Poultry Markets have become a chain since Johnie joined her father as a partner, Jean Earles and Betty Williams have changed their last names, but the housework got so boring that they are now running a Rest Home for the graduates of '55, Shelby McClung's beautiful brown eyes finally won her a job as a photographer's model, Alice McMichael, the girl who made such good grades in high school is now a professor at the University of North Carolina. Ruby King, who loved to fix hair in high school now has a beauty shop of her own, staying busy trying to make the girls of the Class of '55 look beautiful. Since Audrey Thomas became a doctor 's wife, she has finally overcome her fear of disecting frogs. James Cayton made his hitch in the Air Force pay off, He's now a Colonel, heading the Air Force Facilities at Cherry Point, North Carolina. Well, there it is Diary, the goals achieved by the Class of '55, We really didn't do so badly did we? We caused a lot of gray hairs to be added to the noble heads of the faculty, but we meant well with all our noise and wise cracks. We were a happy lot and still are. We could always find something at which to laugh, as long as one can do that, one pretty much has the world by the tail already. We 've come a long way and it hasn't been easy. We had many good opportunities, but they usually came disguised as hard work, That's all for now, Good night, Diary. jo Anne Lasley' Prophet
