The fifteenth Newton reunion was held at the home of Milton and Aletha Roof on Aug. 4, 1945.
It was a perfect day in every respect, and the tables were set up under the trees on the side lawn.
Here a splendid dinner was served and eaten with great relish.

To top it off, the usual watermelon was present and readily consumed.

Following the dinner was a short business meeting.
Lucy Voss read the minutes of that year's reunion in the absence of the secretary, Wilma Hodnett Voss.
Genevieve Beardsley was the acting President in place of Harold Kellogg who was not able to attend.
$2.25 was received when the hat was passed. This is the final report:
collection $ 2.25
balance from 1944 $11.68
$13.93
1945 expenses $ 2.23
1945 Balance in Treasury $11.70
The following officers were elected for 1946:
President - Mariella Spisak
Vice President - Fred Newton
Secretary - Naomi Newton
Treasurer - Nellie Roof
The motion was made and carried that the next reunion be held where the President choose.
At this point the impatient athletes insisted that the meeting come to an end as they were anxious to get a chance at hitting that good softball; the meeting adjourned and the ballgame began.
The game was enthusiastically umpired by Mariella Spisak.
The "Muskateers", with Charles M. Newton, Milton Roof, Fred Newton, Lloyd Voss, Lois Newton and Cedric Roof as players were rather badly beaten by the "Rinky-Dinks" whose team was made up of John Beardsley, Genevieve Beardsley, Bernard Roof, Charles Spisak, Roddy Kellogg and Naomi Newton.
The final score was 16 to 32. Do you suppose the umpire might have been prejudiced? Her husband was on the winning team, you see.
