CLASS WILL We, the Senior Class of 1958 of Greene Central School, Greene, New York, being of sound mind and body, do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament. To the Juniors, we leave our beloved Senior Study Hall, and all privileges due to the Seniors. John Adams leaves those naps in history class to Bruce Hopkins. Fred is taking his one way ticket to the moon with him. He wouldn't wish that on anyone . . . besides, he might need it someday. Roger Allen, George Howard, and Garland Jacobs will their quiet ways to Mary Eaton, Barbara Breck, and Ann Burruss. Jeanette is giving her cheerleading ability to all future tryout participants who feel they need it. To Carolyn Parks, Lorraine Barrows is leaving Blaze. Bud Meade inherits John Bennett's driving ability. Arthur Bilco wills that red sports jacket to Dave Aiken. Duane Birch passes on his tardiness record to Tony Balunas. Now that George Brockway is leaving, he wills his boyish charm and his way with the girls to Tom Osborne. The combined brain power of Courtney Bryant and Gary Esolen goes to all future victims of the ineligibility list. What more could you want? To Alan Eddy, in hopes that he'll make good use of it, goes Pam's baton. No! You won't catch Linda Bullock leaving her diamond to anyone. Evelyn Bunt bequeaths her golden curls to Louisb Baron. Janet Burrows wills her athletic ability to her sister. To Mr. Ball, George Carr is leaving his buzz bomb along with the key with which to wind it.

Florence Famham, Marlea French, and Judy Hobbie will their lasting friendship to Mary Davis, Kathy Byrne, and Judy Tuttle. Debby Granger's leadership ability goes to all future senior class presidents. Marge Gridley and Betty McLaud will their business ability to future business majors. Tom Gurney is taking his black leather jacket with him. Marty Hibbard has decided to leave her trips to New York to any girl who might need them. No, Joan Huntley isn't giving away her pony tail. She's taking it to beautician school so she can practice on it. Gary Huttleston bequeaths his clock-watching ability to anyone who thinks the periods are too long. Joan Ingraham's acting ability is going to the Junior High Dramatics Club. Sylvia Ingraham is keeping Cy but leaves her good luck to all who need it. To Dick Najarian, Bill Ingraham is leaving his shyness. Wonder what he'll do with it? Lee Ingraham receives Patsy Lobdell's home economics major. Ellen Luce wills her giggle to Dick Eaton. Bill McGowan is contributing his truck to old G.C.S. for use in case a bus breaks down. Leo McGowan leaves his position as the only boy in secretarial practice to Jack Cook.

CLASS PROPHECY At last, I've received the assignment for which I've been waiting. The editor of the International Journal wants a report on all the members of the Greene Central graduating class of twenty years ago. I zoomed off in my supersonic jet plane and arrived in Greene a few minutes later. As a starting point, I went to the mayor's office and picked up His Honor David Muzzy to help me gather my needed data. We headed for the new school which had just been completed. Its new super-ultra-modem structure was designed by the universally famous architect, Dieter Schneider. The construction work was done by the Roger Allen Construction Company with George Carr as head foreman on the job. Melvin Eldred, we hear, was head electrician. Inside the school we see that several 1958 graduates are employed. Jeanette Baron is in the English Depart- ment, Gary Esolen is teaching history and Peg McGraw is the head of the Business Department. In the Phys. Ed. Department, we find that Marilyn Scholefield heads the girls division and Ken Lobdell, in the boys division, is also coaching football and wrestling. Cecile Orr is teaching Home Economics and Billy Churchsmith is head of the Ag. Department. We also met Linda Bullock in the hall. She is substituting in the Math Department and she suggested that we go down in the grade section and visit Debby Granger, who is now Grade Supervisor. Upon entering her office, we were very surprised to see that Sylvia Ingraham is her secretary. She informed us that she's working part-time at school whenever they need her. We had a very pleasant talk with Debby and learned that Carol Moorehead and Sylvia Mettler also work at school. Carol is the Dental Hygienist and Sylvia is head of the cafe- teria staff. We also learned from Debby that several of our class members have made quite a career for them- selves in the armed services. Cindy Steere received her commission as Lieutenant last week and Betty McLaud is doing famously as her personal secretary. General George Howard is serving on the Intercontinental Ballistics Bu- reau as an expert in the rocket field. Leo McGowan has a top position in the Pentagon in Washington as General Howard's aid. Reluctant as we were to leave, we had to be pushing on for we had many more facts to discover. David in- formed me that traffic laws are well enforced in Greene by Constable Harlow Henninge, of course. We stopped by the hospital briefly to say hello to Doctor George Brockway and his three nurses, Gertrude Stalker, Linnea Center- wall, and Janet Burrows. Also employed there are Ellen Luce as the hospital dietician and Pam Bullett as Doctor Brockway's secretary. We inquired of Pam if she happened to know what Lorraine Barrows was doing these days. She said that Lorraine and Janice Smith were stewardesses for one of the big airlines owned by Bob VanSlooten. In fact, she said that they were expecting Lorraine to arrive that very day on Captain Ray Patton's jet flight from Miami. As we left the hospital, I asked Dave if he knew what had happened to Courtney Bryant. It seems that Courtney has risen to great heights in the business world. In fact, a month ago he made his first million which is nothing to be sneezed at these days. It seems that Mr. Bryant got hold of some property on the moon, and through the sales- manship techniques of his employee, Alex Taylor, he has made his fortune in real estate. Also huge successes in the business world are Tom Gurney and Fred Aldrich, who, as business partners, now own and operate the biggest comic book establishment in the Universe. As the next step we went over to the Chenango American office, where Esther Weir and Judy Hobbie are em- ployed. Here we discovered some facts about those members of the class who had moved out into the world. For instance, we learned that Evelyn Bunt and Maxine Oliver are running a very successful school for models in Hawaii. In fact, two of their graduates, Joan Huntley and Janice Cole, have top jobs at Marge Gridley's fashion salon in New York City. In politics, Joan Ingraham is becoming quite well-known. This month she is running for Con- gresswoman with Marcia Hibbard as her campaign manager. To our astonishment, four members of the 1958 class have made names for themselves in show business. Marta Winans is MC of a popular variety show on television and recently she has had such performers on her show as Arthur Bilco, King of the Bongo Drums and Donald Schmidt, Mr. Music Himself. We also heard that another member of the class, Scott Mersereau, is bringing back that popular style of the roaring fifties, rock and roll, with his rendition of Hound Dog. We then learned that Duane Birch is giving lessons at the new golf course on the moon. All too soon we had to leave, and on passing the local grocery store, we were surprised to learn that it is owned by John Bennett who, incidentally, owns the whole chain. At the Raymond Corporation, we met Janet Soules and Florence Famham who are secretaries there. In talking to us, they mentioned that Donna Estelle, Marylea French, and Patsy Lobdell own a successful beauty establishment in India. They also told us that Harold Griffin, Gary Huttleston, and Garland Jacobs are operating a space ship refueling station somewhere in South America. Bill McGowan and John Adams are engaged in a new farming experiment for the government in Alaska. While escorting me back to my jet, Dave filled me in on the remaining three members of the class. This month, Ken Cobb, Chuck Young, and Bill Ingraham are representing the United States in the Olympic games as members of the track team. Well, that finishes my assignment. I have to hurry back to the office now and get this typed up for tomorrow's edition. It certainly has been a worthwhile and interesting assignment. 30 Judy Eggleston, Reporter Intercontinental Journal
