Our pilot, Billy Burke, hand- led the controls with the assistance of our co-pilot, Don Fry. Wilma Hodges acted as our navigator, Rosemary Largent was our observer, and Isabell Hubner was our radio opera- tOI'o We painted our plane, the class colors, green and gold. Our insignia was our class flower, the orchid. Our mechan- ic, Mr. Martz went along to help us out of difficulties. One of our passengers, Wilma Randol, decided she would like a ride on another plane so she parachuted down to Shelbyville. The first part of our Journey was pretty rough because we had never ridden in a plane before. We were growing tired so we began to talk about what we wanted to do when our plane landed. Some of the decisions are rather amusing but here they are: Rosemary Largent, a Home Ec. teacher, Wilma Hodges, a cho- rus girlg Isabell Hubner, get married and settle downg Betty Spear, a secretary in a large business firm, Joyce Danneberger, an old maid school teacherg Joann Harden, to write the society column of a city newspaper, Mont Stretch, be more popular with the girls, Carl Davis, a college pro- fessor, Dale Stretch, a farmerg Billy Burke, an airplane pilotg Carl Dagen, a mechanicg Melvin Johns, a minister, Richard Cole, a basketball player, Don Fry, be able to get the car on Saturday nights, and 'Clayton Leigh, a quiet business man.
