CLASS PROPHECY I was sitting alone in the study hall one day when a little dwarf-like man walked in. He held in his hand a magic book. He walked up to me and said, I have here in this magic book a preview of your future High School Days. I saw as I sat there the future come before my eyes as the pages were turned. I saw, Gary Bohms walking out into the gym floor. He was now manager of our All Star Basketball Team, which had won all if its games so far. It was the greatest Basketball Team in Oregon. The first five players were LeWard Collingsworth, the captain, John Ramos and Gary Dorn as guards, Buddy Graham and Elmer Berry, forwards. They were out on the floor warming up for the greatest game they were ever to play. Doris Bowman and Mary Faro, in blue and white, are leading the Echo Fight Song. At the half, the Pep Club was playing. Clarice Stamper and Kay Laughlm as clarinetists, Molly Esselstyn and Beth Wilson playing trumpets, Betty Marlnee, as drummer, and Mary Lou Mills as Baritone. LaDena McCord is now the school's best singer. Homer Bowman, LaVerne Sathers, R. C. Winks, and Tony Faro are famous tennis players. We are happy to see a successful future for Echo High School.
