Prophecy TOM: As I was driving along in my old wrecker the other day, I saw what I thought was an accident, but it was only Bob Fecho, with his third car in three weeks. BOB: I go quite a few places in my traveling you know and I was traveling through Minnesota the other day and I passed a large black and red sign reading, “STOCKMAN’S DAIRY FARM,” so I drove in and there was Herb battling with his wife to see who would milk the cows. Of course their eight children come in handy as farm help. TOM: I wonder what has happened to the rest of the Class of “52?“ I sure wish Don Slatton was here because he is a census taker for the Government and he knows where everyone is. (Tom looks up very surprised.) Well, speak of the devil and he is always sure to appear. If it isn’t our old friend Don Slatton. DON: Hi everyone. Fancy meeting you fellows here. BOB: We were just talking about you Don, wishing you were here so we could pick up some gossip on some of our old classmates. Do you know the whereabouts of any of them. DON: Yes, here’s one that will sure surprise you. I went to Sing Sing the other day to take account, and who do you suppose I ran into. None other than Ted Menchinger. He had on the cutest suit—Pen Stripes. He has only six years to serve for throwing a baseball game. TOM: Don, you know that Bob is a traveling salesman, don’t you. He’s just been telling me some of his experiences. BOB: Oh yes, and by the way I forgot to tell you that I was touring Wisconson the other day and I pulled up in front of this big white farmhouse, and as I did a little head peeked out of every window. There was at least ten windows. When I knocked on the door who do you suppose answered it. None other than Mike Krueger. We conversed for a while, and when I left I didn’t have the Heart to tell her that her pot roast was burning. DON: As I was looking through my files the other day, I saw that Jane Smith Knefley and her three children are living at an Army Camp with Jim. Jane’s occupa- tion is dishwashing for the Generals. TOM: Clara as you know is Mrs. Ernie Riemer, she has him do all the cooking and housework, while she sells farm insurance policies, and runs the farm. I guess she’s pretty successful she made over ten thousand dollars last year. BOB: I just finished reading a book written by Frank Weber, the famous writer now as well known as Shakespeare in his day. He has his children type the stories, which makes them very interesting, because they add their own personal touch. His newest best seller is “HOW DID I EVER GET THROUGH SCHOOL.”
