Thumbing through the pages I found that Ruth Falasky was now starring in Life With Mother , As we travel on further we see Hoffman's Camera Shop, Washay's Super Mart, and Dick Darling's Dairy. Feeling very weary after our days walk we returned to our hotel rooms. Wednesday, June 3rd.'---We began our days tour at Madame Fifi Fifi's Fashion Shoppe owned by Betty Ronning and Janet Cummings. Betty informed us that Albert Carlson is now head of the Sleepy Mattress Company with Judy Halbesma as his bookkeeper, As we left the shop we met Elizabeth Shick who, is an airline stewardess and has just returned from Florida in her new Buick which she purchased from Teddy Deme- tralis. He is now the owner of the worlds largest auto company. Later we stopped in to see Kerin Kyes and her family to learn the latest on more of our classmates. She informed us that Reverend Ruby Greene is now preaching in Cuba, Barbara Chally is a regular member of the Red Heads Basket ball team, and Charlene Borchers is the Z1 proud owner of Tiny's Tidy Tea Room. Thursday, June 4th.---Upon rising we switched on the radio and who should we hear but Terry Rice, star comedian of W.B.S.G. Anxious to learn about the rest of our classmates we wondered over to the football field where Diane Reppy was giving her own little football team a work out. She told us that Janett Cawkins is flying an airplane between Alaska and Siam. Now my mate and I come to our journeys end. She will return to her studio to finish a portrait of the President of the U.S.A. I, have decided to return to my prosperious 20 acre farm.
