Prophecy This is 1963. We are on our way to our airplane hangars on the roof. It is such a nice day we decided that we could cruise around the world 600 miles an hour and be back home by night-fall. The first place we head for is Reykjavik, Iceland, where Kenny Wright has made millions of dollars manufacturing the Iceland motorcycle the Icecicle. There, too, we run into our old chum Louis Domaschofsky, the famed scientist who has just perfected the formula of perpetual motion. As we travel on we come to London, when there is a great crowd gathered around Bob Johnson who has just gotten back from South America after finding a lost city of Amazon. Bette Leisy and Louise Brown run a night club where the singer is Ruth Schultz. The next stop is Oslo, Norway, where Allen Bartel is doing his best to teach the natives there how to get a sun tan. Vic Friesen has a huge doughnut factory there. We pause at Leningrad, Russia, to see Doris Fredericks who is in a rest home recuperating from doing a Russian Ballet. Wendell Curry, Bob Gorhke, and Clifford Frieson have made quite a name for themselves through their nursery schools throughout the country. The opera singer, Violet Goertz, invites us to dinner but we politely decline the offer and fly on to Tibet to see Calvin Cox and Carl Schmidt who have become monks and are now busy filling the St. Bernard dogs' casks with Pesi-Cola. We heard that Arlene Learner, the Belle of Calcutta, India, was busy with her snake charming so we moved on to China where Althea Zentz has been a missionary for 12 years. Ben Smith and George Le Fever are in Australia getting ready for their next trip down to Antartica where they will meet Jim Smith and Ernest Steward who have been down there a long time trying to persuade the penguin to give up his Tuxedo and wear sport clothes. We see Sue Hamilton and Barbara Kracher in front of their escort bureau office. They certainly have a thriving business. In Tahiti, Ruth Van Orsdel, Everett Mott, and Esther Heinrichs are now running a rapidly growing yo-yo factory. In one of the other South Sea Islands, Samoa, Jean Pope and Elva Buhler have found the fountain of youth and are trying to get into kindergarten. Bob Dunn and Eldon Bevens are running a Refreshment Stand in Egypt. There's hardly any moisture there so they pump the water for their beverages from the nearest mirage. Moving on we find that Howard Petersen and Edna Heinrichs have moved their vaudeville show to Brazil because a friend of theirs, James Houtz, has asked them to take over his peanut plantation. 15

We skip over to Spain to get more fuel. While we wait, we hear that Curtis Lamb and Dan Wiens have come here to eat chili beans and woo the Senoritas. Elsie Harber, Ruth Hildebrand, Irene Classen and Rachel Frey, we hear are in Ireland cultivating and selling a new four-leaf shamrock. We fly low over Scotland so we can see Joyce Houtz, Gladys Janzen and Jane Kreason in Edinburgh castle where they have been employed as pest exterminators because of their wide fame in this line. Next we catch sight of sunny Italy where Armond Frey, Catherine Dembowski and Alma Fast are spending their time raising pre-stuffed olives. Now, we cruise down to Belgian Congo where Myrna Payne, Patsy Sharp and Douglas Steward are collecting true natives for Elmer Hiebert's motion picture production of Life in the Congo Basin. It's turning late, now so we turn back to America. When we get to New York, we see Richard Fisher and Victor Friesen washing windows on the top floor of the Empire State Building. As we cross the country to Washington, D. C., we see Ruth Reimer conducting a presidential campaign. Thus it is with a happy feeling that we have been again in touch with our high school days that we return to our home—tired but happy. Commencement Fifty-three Seniors received diplomas at the Commencement services held Thursday, May 27, at 8:00 in the High School Auditorium. The guest speaker was Dan Poling, Jr. from the Oregon State College, Corvallis, and Mr. Whitworth presented the diplomas. The seniors wore grey caps and gowns with maroon tassels. This was a change from the previous years of formals. The Junior boys were ushers the girls were flower girls. Baccalaureate The graduating class attended the Baccalaureate services held in the high school auditorium, May 23, at 8:00 p.m. The speaker was Reverend Tilton, pastor of the Methodist Church. The music and special numbers were furnished by the Methodist Church. 16
