June, 1968
Dear Coach:
Ten years have passed since the Seniors of 1958 graduated, and I thought you might be interested in what they
are doing. From all reports I learned our class has been busy and we have many accomplishments to our credit.
Beverly Bond has used her experience as candy room worker to open up a Sweet Shoppe on 5th Avenue.
Gloria Lewis is her business manager and uses her artistic ability to draw advertising propaganda. They're doing
a land office business especially when both get beyond the counter and dream up concoctions. James Witt
and Nancy Douglas have become public enemies. By this we don't mean they are crooks but they have boxing
bouts in the middle of 301 because Witt's Wonder-World process of cleaning is giving Douglas's Sputnik
Special method stiff competition.
Edson Ward has taken over where Edison left off. He invented a pushbutton method of printing newspapers with
news brought in by his robot reporters. He's been working to perfect his method, though, because the papers are all
printed inside the machine and he can't get them out.
Glenda Sutton writes a daily lovelorn column contradicting Mary Hayworth. She specializes in 10 easy
lessons on how to be engaged without a ring or boy. Martha Brown has just revolutionized the Grand Ole Oprey.
Martha Steals the show every Saturday night with her, "Howdy, I'm just so proud to be here." You ought to see
Ernest Tubb pick the guitar to Chopin's Fifth Symphony. By the way, Elvis is taking voice lessons from her now.
Ralph Massey was given an interest in the American Can Co. because he worked so many school hours; the head
of the Co. thought he deserved it. Bob Lorenz is now Coach of the Detroit Tigers. His old friend, Al Kaline,
now retired, has joined Bob as assistant Coach.
Larry Miller runs a club which teaches its members how to do the least possible work with the least
possible exercise. He got into the habit his Senior year. Harold Hunt and Roger Sibley have become caretakers
of the Tourist Club. The club has been converted into an Old Maids' Home with bachelors! ! John Hicks liked the
National Guard so much that he made it his career. He is now standing on the corner of Fifth Avenue recruiting
others to that dedicated life of cleaning the Armory.
Felton Howard rebuilt Hilson's and made a big name for himself in the Grocery Business. With his good
looks, Felton attracts all women customers. After graduating from West Point, Richard Whitaker became an influ-
ential political leader. He is now President of the United States and Kay Smith is his private secretary. Kay always
did want to be in Civil Service but she never dreamed she would be secretary to the President.
Roy Freeburg is proprietor of Freeburg's Service Station and Garage and sells Sinclair gasoline. Donald
Geiger owns a rival station that sells Phillips 66.They compromised and became partners and now sell Sinclair 66.
Bernice Arnold has gone into business for herself and now owns her own dentist office. She has recently
perfected a painless method of drilling teeth. The seat moves you around and jars you up and down and the
drill remains in one place. Wanda Hazelwood, being so tall herself, opened a dress shop exclusively for tall girls.
It includes dresses for girls 5'8" and over. Bonnie Freed finally hooked that guy from Plant City that she has
been going with for so long. From what we hear she has her hands full bringing up four children.
Ruth King is making the town more beautiful with her beauty shop. She has all the latest hair styles and
she never repeats one. Ruthie is also married and has already started teaching her children to be flirtatious.
Mildred Smith is now full time secretary for Mr. Kendrick. She went over to DCT to help him so much
her Senior year, she got into the habit.
