WE ARE EXPECTING YOU 50th ANNIVERSARY REUNION SEPT. 29—OCT. 1. 197S TO: Members of the 1928 Hickman High graduating class. This is to advise you of the reunion plans and developments since our May 15 letter. 1. 23 of us attended the June 1 awards assembly as the guests of the 1978 graduating class. We were royally treated. 2. Miss Nelle Kitchens received sufficient money and a 50 year anniversary seal was placed on each 1978 diploma. Our class has been graciously thanked for our efforts. 3. Plans are proceeding rapidly for the reunion scheduled, as you know, for September 29 thru October 1. Here are a few things related to the reunion we believe you'll like: - Slater Christian, Kitty McCasky Balsamo, John King, Peggy Proctor Mulligan and others on the reception committee are eager to greet you in the hospitality room. Imogene Hill Woods and Bush Walden are heading up the "other activities" committee including such things as attending the homecomming football game at Hickman on September 29. Banquet committee leader Laura Woods Martin has more than a half dozen persons in the planning stages such as: Etta May Graves Benedict, Imogene Woods and Evelyn Estes on decorations, Edgar and Margaret Noarvell Drane on seating arrangements, Loren Reynolds, Adalene Hoke and Fowler Young on menu, Kitty McCasky Balsamo, Alex Estes, Etta Grace Stewart Singleton and Fowler Young planning the program, working up the agenda, etc and of course money bags Alex (treas.) will pay the bills. All details connected with the banquet are not complete but you will like Wallace Walter as the M.C.. Bet he can still sing, debate and play a leading role in most worthwhile activities. You v/ill like the guest speaker too. Remember the 1927 class president Jack Taylor? He is now Mayor of "Whoopup". He recalls much history that relates to members of the 1928 class and you can count on much of it being revealed. This of course will be in addition to the concerns of the people* in the village the mayor runs. More than fifty have already sent their registration fee for reservations. Many others have written nice letters expressing their desires to be here. Some have not written at all and that makes us feel kinda sad. We have much more to do before reunion time AND WE ARE DEPENDING ON YOU FOR HELP. Everyone receiving this letter can help. To make it easy for you we are enclosing QUESTIONNAIRE NO. 2. Won't you please fill it in and return it TODAY. Respectfully submitted by persons whose names appear above. 0 """ 0*
