CLASS PROPHECY As I was sitting for the last time upon the Arcadia stage in my high school career, l was wondering what would become of the class of 1955. Suddenly, I wasn't on the staoe anvmore. but in a newspaper office. I was a newspaper reporter in a small town, which consisted of the Arcadia class of 55. This village is called Seniorville, and was incorporated in the spring of 1955. Since this was the tenth birthday of our community, we were putting out a special anniversary edition of our paper. My iob was to write about the residents of our community. First, I interviewed the employees of our hospital. Barbara Good is the Supervisor of Nurses. She says that the hospital has been crowded ever since she hired Betty Fruth as the nurse in charge of taking pulses. Another person employed by this hospital is Janet Shiley. She is still as good at handling needles as she was in her high school days, and she has even added the use of the hvpodermic. Rosann Lenhart, Mary Lou Rader, and Bob Noel are in the picture industry. They take X-rays for our hospital. Watch for their new picture release, The Inside Story. Because of his training in high school, David Corbin is in politics. He is the mayor of our community. Jim Woodward is a scientist in his own laboratory. He iust made a great discovery-the 101st use of the peanut. He is now using it as a substitute for beans in a bean shooter. If you have wondered where all those new-fangled hair styles are coming from, the answer is from Ruth Ann Smith and Ruth Arnett. They both have their own beauty salons. Ruth specializes in long hair, while Ruth Ann specializes in short hair. Rita Grine and Marilyn Walsh take care of the banking business of our community. Their motto is, Put your money in our hands and you will never have to worry about it again. Another member of this bank is Geraldine King. She takes care of the figures-all sizes, large and small. Another familiar face which we see going around our community every day is Larry Walsh. He owns and operates a dairy. He has to have a special truck for al! the milk Lloyd Thomas gets from his holstein cows. ln addition to raising holsteins, Lloyd also sells Allis-Chalmers tractors. Sonia Schofield has been hired as the private nurse of Dr. Kinsey. Gerald Marvin owns a farm on the outskirts of our community. I hear he iust had quite an addition to his family-fifteen Duroc pigs. Donna Bame works in the branch of the Ohio Oil Company in our community. After ten years, she has lust been appointed head messenger. Gertrude Marvin is also working there as a private secretary. Bill Diebley is the coach at our school. He has won all his games, except, of course, the ones he lost. Ray Lazenby has his own business, Excuses, Inc. He specializes in excuses for staying home from school. Evelyn Miller is using her baby-sitting techniques that she learned in her high school days, on her own five children. We also have some members of the class of 55' who have not stayed in our village. Among them are Ernestine Rice who is in the waves. She is doing pretty good, she has already had twenty proposals, but is sticking it out for Bill. Tom Bickel is a senator from Ohio. After he held down the floor for five hours last week, his only comment to the news reporters was, Give me some throat spray. Ronald Stall is Liberace's secretary. Besides the other work he has, he also takes care of combing the waves in Liberace's hair and lighting the candles.
