1957

3-2-1 and the '57 rocket is off again. This rocket is wearing diapers so read it carefully. In the spring Bob Lee and Miss Marcia Jane Cooper were married.

We are now at the diaper end of the rocket. The date that I have for the Class Boy (male child born to parents married after graduation) is June 5, 1958. If you know of one born earlier than that please let me know.

The father of the fourth stage of this rocket managed to time the birth for one week after graduation on June 17, 1957. Cindy, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Stephan A. Weiss is the class baby. Fittingly, Cindy was born in Mary Hitchcock. Since graduation, Steve has been engaged in the building business in Washington, D. C. He, his wife, and their two children Stephen Jr., Class of '78, and Cindy, live in Alexandria, Va. Congratulations to you all.

"Merry Christmas to you'all, Dahlings."

Regards - Hedda.
