As I leave Jim’s office, I run into Lynda Sanderson. She tells me that Sophia Spencer is now living in Hawaii along with Sam and their daughter. Carol Arnold and Betty Elliott are also married as well as Janice Painter. I find I have just enough time to meet Wanda Wilkenson and her three chil- dren before leaving for home. Boy, what a trip! But you know, I’m glad to be back in 1964 and still looking forward to the future, and also to my wedding in July to Glenn. By GERRI MCCARRELL

CLASS PROPHECY As Goodlettsville’s school year of 1964 comes to an end, all of us look to the future and what it holds. Being a good friend to a scientist in Florida, I talked him into letting me use his time machine, not yet on the market, and take a fifteen year trip into the future lives of all my classmates. Slowly the machine takes off into the future. Why, there’s Dusty Cummings and he’s on television with his comedy show. He also owns a big ranch out West! As I travel on in the year of 1979, I see several football players in a big stadium. I should have known who two of them would be; Walter Heath and Terry Dalton, professional players for the Greenbay Packers. Believe it or not, there is Oh, that man looks familiar, so let’s stop and look around awhile. Henry Bolding, their manager. Good luck boys! Well, if it isn’t Mike Caldwell, and he is a professor as well as the president of Vanderbilt University. Along with him is one of his friends and fellow professors, Bill Bozeman. After traveling this far I think I will stop for lunch. Upon entering the restaurant, the first person I see is Linda Allen, the chief dietician of this restaurant, as well as 30 others. On the wall are pictures of great athletes and stars. Among them are Buddy Crawford, Johnny Carpenter, and Harry Martin, all great Olympic track stars, as well as partners in the architectural field. While waiting for my meal, I glance around and see none other than Beverly Disspayne, now an airline hostess in on leave. She is having dinner with those great career women; Dorothy Martin, Shirley Steel, and Beckie Hicks. After discussing things with them for awhile, The first mentioned is Rosa Stinson, whom I find is now the we, as usual, begin gossiping about our old friends. owner of an international string of beauty salons. Her top managers are also old friends: Nell Martin, Janice Fuller, and Shirley Howell. I am so glad to see them reach success! As I leave the restaurant, I decide to go to the art museum to see if any of my friends have made good in the field of art. There is a collection of modern art by my old friend David Gillihan, who is also a fine draftsman. On the op- posite side of the wall is a portrait of a little girl painted by Vicki Kirby, Upon looking at it, I remember hearing “Vick” say that she would make a million. dollars painting. I see that she is well on her way. Other great representatives of the art world are Majel Cottell and David Darnell, both with terrific art exhibits in the museum, As I leave the mu- seum, I glance across the street and see one of the most beau- tiful buildings I have ever seen. After inquiring, I find it was designed by those famous architects, Jerry Preston, and Mike Waldron. The construction was by Jacky Mayes. Part of the offices in this building are occupied by those great lawyers; John Heany, Charles Collins, and Johnny Dodd. These men,’ Page 28 by the way, employ many secretaries among whom are Bar- bara Woodall, Diane Tisdale, Peggy Skaggs, Judy Bond, and Jane Stewart. While leaving the building, I find my attention straying to the hospital across the street. As usual, my curiosity has gotten the best of me. This is the place where that great scientist, Jimmy Jarratt, is employed. In the lab next to him is that famed biochemist, Hollis Malone, who is in deep conversation with the psychologist of the hospital, Sue Ellen Parrish. Other employees are Linda Bean, a receptionist, and Jane Ahern, the pharmacist. The nurses include Sharyn Batey, Anna Thomsen, and Debbie Matchak. After looking over the hospital, my interest in the school system has been awakened. The first teacher I met is Pat Cartwright. As we talk, she informs me that other teachers are Lynda Thomas, Judy Roark, and Judy Scott. As I check my watch, I find that only three hours are left of my allotted time, and I still haven’t found out about all of my class- mates. So I call upon one of my friends, Sherry Jenkins, an accountant now, and ask her to give me the “lowdown” on everyone. I find that Freddie Birdwell is now a test driver of cars built by Donny Powell and owned by Gene Greer. Dennis Fields is a commercial artist, and Roger Garner is a Certified Public Accountant. As we pause to listen to a record on the radio, Sherry explains that it is by James Swing, Jerry Williams, Ray Tarr, and Johnny Waller. This was just one of their several recordings. Barbara Sonner is also in the musical field, but a different type. She is a choir director. Another person that pursued show business is Sheila Carlisle. Being my nosey old self, I begin to name still others that I am curious about. I find that Carol Boehms, Cheri Ash- burn, Linda Ozanne, Betty Sisco, Sandra Harris, Mary Jane Chapman, and Gloria Winters are all very successful secre- taries. Most of these work for those business tycoons: Dickie Sears, Don Cunningham, Tommy Adams, and Jerry Hicks. After leaving Sherry, I find that there are still a few that I have not heard about. I think I will look up Jimmy Gal- breath, that outstanding Aeronautical Engineer. Paul Bry- ant, and Mike Carter have all gone into some branch of the engineering field. Vivian Pendley and Judith Anderson have also chosen this line of work. Conversing on other subjects, I find that Morris Clendenin and John Minton are both newspapermen and are assigned to the President of the United States. Another person con- nected with the White House is Admiral Billy Hooper, that great demolition expert. I also got hold of some secret in- formation about a great discovery by Ponder Henley, Jesse Patterson, and Wesley Dickson. They have found a sub-
