for “Hub-Cap Howard” and Bob North. P. S. They found them. It was growing pretty dark and Mr. Ewing grew alarmed. But I told him not to worry that the fire keeper. Harvey Battaglia must have been neglecting his job. Mr. Ewing thought that pretty hard to believe. In tht athletic part of the inferno I spotted “Phif” Wallace. “Huffy.’’ Bery Plyler. and Paul Plyler instructing John Neel. James Best. Larry Vandervort. and Madison Secrest the finer arts of basketball. The football coaches. Pete Miller. Roy Shaffer. Neal Strawcutter, and Happy Ferguson were also delivering their tactics to Stanley Grube. Leo Gusmerotti. DeLoss Hetrick and Robert Keirn. The boys believed that when the next class teams came to join them they would be all prepared to beat the “skins off them. ’ “Mick McManigle. Josephine Anderson, and Marie Galbraith were arguing, as we passed, as to which one could paint the best. Of course, anyone can paint a big blot of red but argued they did so we decided to go on and leave the decision of them to figure out. As we traveled along a startling sound of cheers met our ears. Ann Richards, we saw. was conducting a group in the principles of school spirit and such cheering! Ann refused to give up her cheering career but her students, Eileen Fowler. Betty Galbreath. Dorothy Brosius, and Peg Crawford were inclined to disagree with her. Peg. once a leader herself, believed her style all wet. In a far corner Mr. Ewing and I encountered a lecture in the making, being delivered by two distinguished classmates, Christine Adams and Jim Eberline. The lecture traveled on the course of the “right” dance steps but being as even the two lecturers were inclined to disagree (and they still haven’t changed) the audience composed of Ethel Alpanalp, Margie Anderson. Betty Brad-enbaugh, Ellen Brosius. and Guy Silvis were also a bit disinterested and unattentive. “We should have the Class of ’41 just a-bout accounted for, Prof.,” I said, but no,—directly in front of us Summerville’s own “Pork” Brosius was admiringly showing his scarlet tres- ses to Mae Slagle, Dorothy Smith, Pauline Spare, and Pauline Brosius who sighed in awe. I showed Mr. Ewing next to a room where at the desk sat Bill McNeil, who, having acquired everything the teachers knew at dear old B. H. S.. was teaching Josephine Bullers, Lillian Cable, and June Lockwood. “What do you suppose the subject is?,” I asked Mr. Ewing. “Who is the shortest? Norma Sue Shields. Baxter’s wizard, was observed next explaining to Aldine Rhodes. Martha Guyton. Frances Kirkman, and Kathleen Gearhart the ways and wheres of how we reached this distinguished habitation. As we passed. Robert Shilling demanded a set of rings, to play with while disturbing a quiet (can you imagine, and here too) conversation held by Dan Morrison. Grayce Rhodes, Martha Guyton, and Zelma Hetrick on the much talked of topic—Heat. Again I told Professor Ewing that I didn’t believe many of our class were unaccounted for, and as we turned the final corner to the exit I spied Wilbur Rhodes and Lloyd Moore tearing after Twila Ishman and Isabelle Sellers for their lollypops. Farther on Imogene Witherow was showing Flora Idonata how to put on some weight while Flora in turn was showing Imogene details on how to acquire height. Last but not least we encountered Bill Boozer. Burton Hotaling. and James Fuller trying to figure out how they ever got here. As if they didn’t know. Oh yes, we almost forgot Fish Ferringer who was here all the time, flightly as usual. It was getting late and being that Mr. Ewing is afraid of the dark, he decided he had better get back to the good old terra firma. Before he had a chance to leave I made him come across with my bubble gum. which he reluctantly did. Darn! I know I shouldn't have eaten that shrimp before I went to bed.

SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY... 1991 All events and characters portrayed in this persons living or dead is purely coincidental. One day Satan decided to send me out to look for new prospects. Being his right hand man I always had this job to do. Upon reaching earth, I first encountered a very distinguished old man. I walked up and asked his name. During the course of our conversation Mr. Ewing asked me if I knew of the whereabouts of some of the class of 41. I told him I could account for a good share of them. He promised me a stick of bubble-gum if I’d take him through Hades and I couldn't pass up an offer like that. After a few hours journey we arrived at the entrance into Hades. Mr. Ewing wanted to know who the door keepers were and was surprised to learn that they were Bill Fleming and his stooge Bob North. After giving the password we entered the main part of Hades. There was a group of girls dancing for Satan and I pointed them out one by one—Bernice Thompson. Edith Yoder. Mary Ellen Martz. Hazel Weaver, and Lorraine Koch led by Leona Withcrow were doing the rumba to the music of Gabriel (George Munro) and “hub cap Howard.” Mr. Ewing called my attention to a fellow making faces at himself in a mirror. Of course it was Clifford Chittester. and he had Helen Ches-nutt so scared that she chewed her finger nails to the quick. I showed him next one of the outstanding agricultural students (Gerald Ford) who was, by the way. in solitary confinement because he had tried to take over the place. I told Mr. Ewing of our trouble makers, who were as you may have guessed. Fred Hilas-zik and June Rowan. They just insisted on flirting with Geneva Rerick and Meriam Weyant, but they were punished by Lee Caylor and Alex Garner, who were especially fitted for that job since they had taken a course in jui-jitsu at dear old B. H. S. Jack Arthurs damaged a wheel on his Kiddy car while trying to make an impression on Louise Kane and Ruth Cook. As this was an everyday occurrence no one thought anything of it. masterpiece are purely fictional and any similarity to I told Prof. I could hardly wait for Bill Morrison to “kick off” so I could give him an extra scorching for trying to steal my best girl. He assured me that I wouldn't have to wait long. Blanford Mooney was trying to teach the Riggs twins how to play tiddley winks, but gave it up as a bad job as Ben Carroll was stretched out on the floor reading “Macbeth. devouring it page by page, and blocking the floor. Mr. Ewing said. “Is Mariella Fulton down here too?” I said. “Yes. she tried to get into heaven but they bolted the doors when they saw her coming. Why. we even have to watch her like a hawk down here. In a far corner there was a distinguished looking fellow giving advice to Sara Manners. Josephine Steele, Lois Carrier, and Annette Weiss. I told Mr. Ewing that it was Leon Goble. Fifteen years ago he had taken Mr. Anthony's Good Will Hour and hadn’t got over it. We heard an awful racket in the center of the inferno. We investigated and found it to be Harold Johnson and his girl, Louise Raybuck, trying to start a revolution, by taking Louises’ brother Clydes' peanuts away from him. saying that he just “gummed’’ them anyway. Still another surprise was in store for Mr. Ewing. In another corner sat Ernest Bowley crying his eyes out because Ralph Bruner, George Raybuck and Charles Slagle wouldn't play Chinese checkers with him. He even threatened to leave and John Jones was razzing the life out of him. At the far side of the inferno some of the guests of Satan were giving a play. Mr. Ewing inquired who the leading lady was. It was none other than Pearl Copenhaver. and her hero was Ivan Matthews. The part of the villain was played by Dick Buzzard, which led to much confusion for Bruce McMurray thought he could play that part best. Mary Jane Shoemaker and Maxine Whittall didn’t belong down here but they were looking
