CLASS PROPHECY It's June, 1956, and what do we have here? Is it a meeting of the Busy Bee Sewing Circle? Is it a meeting of the U. N.? No! It's a reunion of the Class of 1951, Coe-Brown Academy. Could it be that we have all put these five years in weight? Our President, Bob Reis, is still pre- siding. Bob has put Northwood on the map by operating his own radio station, JMRR. It proves this is a small world: our roving foreign correspondent, Lil Young, is heard nightly over our re- spective radio station. She and her hus- band, who is also a foreign correspond- ent. make quite a team. Shall we just sit back and renew our acquaintances? Here comes “the bachelor with that man-of-the-world air, William Andrea- son. “Chuck” is now district manager of a chain of hotels. Marjorie Sherman is heading our way: she has really lived up to “most likely to succeed title bestowed on her by her fellow classmates. Most people know her by her famous pioneer work with new methods of teaching children. Janet Mifflin hasn’t let us down either: she has on one of her own fash- ion creations. She’s very busy in Bos- ton trying to out-design Schiaparelli. Burklund’s Self-Service Grocery re- sides next to the radio station. Owned and successfully operated by Bobby Burklund. Bula Brown really has made good use of Mrs. Dodge’s Home and Family Class. As Mrs. Arthur Nutter she has proved the old sayin, “The best way to a man's heart is through his stom- ach.” Ralph Twombly has kept up with the Navy tradition by setting a world’s record of breaking more hearts in every port than any other member of the armed forces. Traveling with an auditing company as an accountant, Joan Warner is now seeing the country. It’s rare to have work and play combined so nicely. After a successful career as a secre- tary. Betty Neilsen is certainly busy keeping her new home for her and her husband. Johnny Young. Wedding bells have rung frequently for the gals. Jackie Laprise has deserted the fine town of Northwood and is living in Haverhill with her husband. Donald MacCallum made history as an army engineer. Donald is now chief engineer at G. E. That “pin-up” of the Armed Forces,” Helen Bickford, is having a hard time deciding whether it’s going to be Pat McQueeny of the Air Force or David Poisson of the Navy. While deciding this hard decision, she’s work- ing in Manchester. Northwood’s solid citizen and ex- pert forest ranger, Ralph Graham, is making himself known around the state for his forestry work. Martha Anderson and her husband are proudly showing off their twins. Martha is now residing in Northwood after returning from a trip to Cali- fornia. Grace Hodgdon and her husband-to- be have tied the knot. We hope Gracie’s children inherit her sence of humor. As everyone has arrived, the doors are closing on the reunion of the Class of 1951. 13
