Here are some of the ways: Carcle Bleimej er— “I remem ber the parties most. That sum- irer, I was staying in Palm Eeach. One of those parties, well it wasn’t a party — it was THE Party . . . with a wonderful combo playing on the beach, e-:otic foods, liquids and people. Cn'y later did we realize that the caretaker’s daughter threw ths party while the owners of the estate were in Europe.” Hoot Gibson — “I went to Cali fornia and worked for the Pitts burg Plate Glass Company and "recreated” the rest of the time. What a place with srow and wa ter skiing, skin diving, night club- ing . . . and so forth. I also worked on a pit crew for a racing fr’end of mine.” Bob Andrews—"I was in the army and was sent that summer to northern Japan — I went by ship’s rail. I remember most the wonderful Japanese people.” Harry Holden — “Last sum mer, I had three jobs — work ing in a machine shop from 8 till 5, Monday through Friday.

Weekends, I worked at McDon ald’s dressing hamburger buns 36 to a batch.” Lucinda Mason — “From Ge neva I went to Ireland, where I lived for three weeks in a castle.

We mixed our drinks with river water to save our money for gas and food.” Richard Bowers — “Well, I played Rout« 66 last summer with a friend. We roared out West in my Corvette, sleeping on, in or near the car. We work ed as filling station attendants, dishwarhers, waiters, and nation al park attendants.” Eric George — “In the sum mer of 1959, all the horses I had that year were really doing great. I entered jumping events in horse shows on an average of every weekend and won the North Carolina State Equitation Championship.” Jean Hudgins — “It was the summer we had a jeep at the beach. We spent our time roar ing around blazing trails through private estates and flying over the tops of sand - dunes.” Jimmy Howie — “As a mem ber of North Carolina Methodist Caravan, I lived last summer in England, Germany, and Austria with native families.
