Class Prophecy Street Hometown, U. S. A. June 1, 1955 Dear Johny, I was very glad to hear that you have been given a furlough from your services with the Army of Occupation in Europe, and that you will be home soon. Several of your friends and I were planning to surprise you with a party by the class of '4-5, but upon contacting all our old schoolmates, we found it was impossible to get them all together in one place at one time. You can readily understand this after I've told you about the varied occupations of our former class- mates. . ... I telephoned Lieutenant Commander Beals in Washington and his fiancee,Francis Squires,who works in the chemical laboratories there. Both were too busy working on the project of a Super Passenger Air- liner to get a week-end off for the party. The addresses of several of our friends were New York City, so I hopped a plane and flew there. Who do you suppose was the stewardess? None other than that quiet girl who used to sit in the back row— Irene Chatfield. At Municipal Court, I found Dorothy Campbell, Attorney-at-Law, prosecuting Rudolph Spitler for his alleged conspir- acy against the United States. She rejected my invitation saying— Business comes before pleasure. Her secretary and close companion, Betty Sonnenberg, was hard at work on the case, too, and couldn't come. Now you see why I gave up the idea of a party. Upon my return to this city, I was surprised to hear that Eddie Mittlestedt, foreman at Franklin's Foundry, was injured yesterday and taken to Hometown General Hospital. I found him in high spirits when I called and was certainly surprised to see Nurse Delores Ehlert taking care of him. He informed me that his night nurse was Mary Lange, so as usual, he was in the graces of the feminine sex. By the way, Robert Sutor has been transferred from the Art Institute of Chicago, to the Louvre, Paris. Perhaps you'll have time to look him up on your way home. I received a letter a few days ago from Lorraine Meyer,Principal of Westfield High School. From what she told me,I guess we'd never recognize the town. David Floeter has obtained the proprietorship of the grocery store at the corner of Main and Second Streets and has a thriving business. He sells only Tasty Pastry Bakery Goods, which are delivered to him by the bakery salesman, 3yron Whitney. Westfield Creamery has expanded and covers eight blocks, since Harvey Ebert took over the management. He and his assistant, Calvin Hamilton, made this one of the Dairy State's leading co-operative cheese making industries. Russell's Dairy Farm has sponsored many Dairy Bars throughout the state, including a flourishing one on Wisconsin Avenue in Milwaukee which Hance visits quite frequently. I've told you about most of our classmates so I might as well tell you what the rest of them are doing. Edna Gibson and Caroline Henke are private secretaries to multi-millionaire Norbert Judas, who acquired his wealth from the trucking business. Beverly Lobby is head librarian at the Public Library in Boston. Geraldine Polfuss is taking Max Factor's place in Hollywood. I read in the last issue of the PHOTOPLAY that Gerry has been in complete charge of the make-up for the recently released technicolor production of Coming Your Way Esther Labrenz and Shirlene Zabel are executives in the accounting department of Montgomery Ward and Company in Chicago. Jean Johnson is a clerk in the filing department of the same concern. Irma Schrank and Irene Lieske, incidentally their last names have changed, have been traveling through the country with their husbands' carnival. Well John, it's 2:30 and I must turn on my television set to the program, Say or Pay, with ’Walter Voigt as Emcee. It's really a very good program. Oh Dear,I nearly forgot my appointment at Marena's Beauty Shoppe for a facial. My assistant just called and asked me if he could have tonight off, so I'll have to work. I guess this is where your pharma- cist friend signs off, but where the girl you left behind says 'Til I see you on your homecoming
