ss Pllec By Marian Grover and Beverly Stetson If one were to pick up a newspaper ln 1962, he would find the Class of '52 of W. H. S. mak- ing history. It might very well be something like thls: First we notice that the editor of this new newspaper, which has, lncidently, the world's largest circulation, is none other than Paul Wirzburger. Paul is famous for his political editorials, which are illustrated by the clever cartoons of Peter Briggeman. In tH1S particulrp issue he has discussed the platform on which John Tarvainen is running for governor.He points out that John has a superior campaign manager in Albert Glaseman. On the first page we see in the headlines that Admiral Ray Litchfield has returned home for a brief vislt.The Admiral has done a marvel- ous job as commander of the tremendous navy formed by the combined forces of the free, demo- cratic nations of the world. Admiral Litchfield, in that generous manner which makes him so well- llked,shares the credit with vice-admlrals, Don- ald Mayer and Ernest Brown. He also declares that the job could not have been accomplished without the aid of his interpreter,Mar1anChover, and his skillful secretarles,Anne Perry and Bet- tle Chapman. The next item which we notice tells of a remarkable new vegetable developed through the combined efforts of Albert Hall and Johnibnnett. This vegetable ls believed to be perfect hmevery respect. Marlene Smith and Nat Snow, co-heads of the How to Be Lovely School for Young Women,hail this vegetable as non-fattening. Poetess Norma Waters has written a tribute to the Luther Bur- banks of this generation. Next we read that Elaine Welch has returned from her recent European tour to studyconditlons there. Elaine is forming a society to aid the underprivileged children of the world. She ls counting heavily on the assistance of Louise Phillips, Shirley Wassmouth, Virginia Hallamore and Marie McMillan, who will back her with their nurses' training, and Avis Terzian, the leading physical therapist. Supporting Elaine in her worthy project are such people as Richard Blute, president of Harvard Unlverslty,and Nancy Groven an authority in the field of education. The re- sponse has been so great to this plan that Elahm has enlisted the help of secretaries,Joanne Tuc- ker and Marilyn White to handle the correspond- ence, and mathematicians,Barbara Kenneelly and Constance Harriman, to handle the contributions. One of the biggest stories in the paper con- cerns the annual Miss America contest. Winner of this much desired tltle is none other than Betty Hunter, who, we recall,was voted prettiest girl ln her graduating class. Paul has made sure that this article is well-illustrated with pho- tographs taken by Beverly Stetson.A great source of admiration is the stage on which Miss America was crowned, which was decorated by florist Mary Longo. Among Betty's wonderful prizes are a com- plete wardrobe designed by Amer1ca's leading fashion expert, Anne Duarte, and a smooth, baby blue convertible, guaranteed to do 150 m.p.h., which was made by Tommy Danner's car factory.The judges in this year's contest were business men, Everett Robar, Robert Dick, and Alfred Slaney. Betty was sponsored as a candidate by the Satur- day Club for Young Women, of which Elizabeth Slaney is president. One of the more exciting news items tell of chemist Martin Kelly and his discovery of three new elements. Professor Kelly has been working for five years to complete his research, and at last,wlth the help of his efficient secretaries, Shirley Mattson and Barbara Flsher,he has become successful. Professor Kelly's research was fi- nanced by the successful chain of drug and groc- ery stores owned and operated by Marian Benson and David Sewell. The last important item tells how Agnes Mllonas, woman secretary of Labor, cleverly managed to end the strike which threatened to close the candy factory owned by Phyllis Humble and Mary Kllroy. We recall that Agnes met with equal success in her efforts settling the strike in the necktle factory managed by Joe Scriven. Agnes cannot be praised enough for the job which she has done during her term ln office. Many people are talking of her for our first wo- man president. Now in the line of special features,we find that Paul's paper contains'an excellent woman's page edited by Elsie MacRoberts. Els1e's page carries interesting and helpful household hints written by Barbara Collins. Eunice Cady writes a column on courtesy, entitled 'Tips for the Courteous Housewlfe.' To emphasize her points, Eunice has clever illustrations drawn by Ruth McLaughlin. Some of the tasty recipes of Joan Crossman make the page complete. Many housewives feel that this page is the best feature of Paul's paper. Next comes the very popular column by one of Paul's main-stays, Marie McLaughlin, who has taken over Earl Wllson's column. The first bit of news that Marie has for us is that Bill Galley, idol of the American female-movie going public, is in town for a brief stay. Next we learn that Richard Stetson and his banjo have been a great success recording for the new com- pany formed by Mary Amado, Jane Fernez, and Jean Bagnulo.Seen at home during the off-season vaca- tion are football stars, Richard Cheromcka and Dave Derosler, who have been starring for the Washington Redskins. Marie also reports that concert pianist Chester Duncan is vacationing on Cape Cod in the famous 1nn,propr1eted by Lillian Taylor and Gerry Browne, before going on an ln- ternatlonal tour. However, the biggest news that Marie has for us today concerns the gala opening of the 'Club 52N run by those two shrewd busi- ness women, Phyllis Baker and Mary Morse. Any 26
