Remember those thrilling words? Of course you do! A dime, a boxtop, or both would bring an official prize from a favorite radio program right to your mailbox. (Of course, there was also an endless wait until the postman made the delivery.)
Our new series will review favorite radio programs from our youth and the prizes we longed for. Just click on RADIO PREMIUMS in the list on the upper left of this HOME PAGE, and you'll go back to those thrilling times of yesteryear--Whoops! Wrong program--or click on the link below.
Graduation Pictures
Do Exist!
Judith Oleszeuk Sopron
Several classmates informed me that they did not have pictures of themselves in a cap and gown so I thought a slide presentation of us in our graduation finery was a lost cause. And along came mail from Judy Oleszeuk Sopron which not only had photos, but included a description of the ardous search she undertook to find them. It led to Holland, Michigan and many boxes of many slides, to Walgreen's photo department, and finally to my computer. In light of her hard work and time, I'm asking each of you to make another attempt to hunt down your own elusive picture so we can have a gallery of members of our class as we said good-bye to our Alma Mater.
Please emal (mckwd@aol.com) or mail* your findings to me, and I'll add them to our show that numbers "two" at the moment. (I will return all photos I receive.)

UPDATES

WE HAVE A BRAND NEW QUIZ written by our Answer Man Bob McFadden. He's created a number of questions to test your memories on several of our favorite radio and television programs we loved when we were kids. You'll find it listed in the left-hand corner of our Home Page. It's titled: SHOWS WE LOVED.
The answers can be found by clicking
on the link at the top of the quiz.
-
The new series RADIO PREMIUMS has begun. Enjoy and share your memories with the rest of us on FENGER FORUMS. A new posting will appear about once a week. We begin with one of the first programs we enjoyed every Saturday morning.
It's a bird! It's a plane!
It's SUPERMAN!
(Please let me know if you cannot play the
radio clips.)
-
Check out our new feature The Fenger News! You'll find it listed at the top of the left-hand column of the Home Page. Here we'll be able to post pictures, news articles, and memorabilia from our high school days. Some things are on it now, but there will be more coming as YOU delve into those boxes hidden in the rear corners of your basements and attics. We all thank you in advance for your trouble and contributions.
-
Tryin' again! I received one graduation photo and am hoping that you will make a new effort to find yours. Email or mail it to me, and I will add them to the Graduation Day photos from our Fenger News feature.
-
The music is back at the moment, but it comes and goes for no apparent reason. If you notice it gone, know I'll be fixing it soon.
When the music does work, it's nice to just let it play as you do other things. There's about a two hour 50s concert on the Home Page.

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW BUT ARE
TOO SHY TO ASK
We didn't have the "computer advantage" when we were growing up so many of us are a little timid when approaching this newfangled contraption. With that in mind, a new forum section entitled "All You Need to Know But Are too Shy to Ask" has been created.
The new feature has directions for many of the skills needed to take full advantage of our web site. It even explains how to print those directions so you can have them in front of you as you navigate into new territory.
A second feature explains exactly how to obtain additional help with any problem which may come up. It's really simple: just email me, as site administrator; and I'll get the answer straight from the experts at Class Creator.
So now, with a little bit of determination, you can fully explore the site, send emails, reply to survey questions, comment in forums, and load pictures. Just click on the link below.
