Senior Class Prophecy May 24, 1971 Dear Mr. Heiting, Twenty years ago, the class of ’51 received their diplomas and ventured forth into the world to seek their fortunes. On our recent trip around the world, we met many of our old classmates again and thought you might be interested in hearing how they are pros- pering. First we visited with those who are still living in the Northwest. Ed Boody is now working on another invention which will enable him to deliver milk without getting out of the truck. Ray Wein- berg is now the owner of one of the most fabulous night-clubs in the Northwest, formerly “The Port. Willetta Hope, the first woman sheriff of St. Croix County, has just recently captured one of the most notorious criminals in the Northwest, “Spider Webb. Dave Borg and Ronald Jensen are now on the Lakers “first five. Just outside Hudson, Joan McDiarmid and Bonnie Willie are operating a riding stable. They specialize in Arabian thoroughbreds. Renee Conley and Mary Ellen Olson have opened the Singer Sewing Center newly established in Hudson. Doris Nelson and Gwen Lein are the co-owners of the Hudson Dairy Bar and are attracting a lot of out-of-town trade. While shopping in the Loop of Hudson, we ran into the former Barbara Moelter doing her shopping in the rapidly growing Ohrt’s Super Market. She told us that she had been named the “Model Mother of 1971. After visiting with our old friends, we took the atom-run train to Chicago where we encountered LeRoy Johannsen. He is now the publisher of the most widely read English books. LeRoy told us that we shouldn’t miss the roller derby while we were in Chicago. So, that evening, we saw the roller derby where Helen Johnson was racing for the championship. Next, we traveled to the Indianapolis speedway where we saw Bob Klund win first place in the hot rod race. Mayelva Daniels also was visiting in Indianapolis while we were there. As you prob- ably know', she has taken Emily Post’s place in the world of etiquette. The next morning we left for New York City via the new jet Trans-Continental Airline rocket, piloted by Dick Moen, who has had much experience in the air. We landed at St. Ores Field, which was changed from LaGuardia after Alan took office as mayor of New York. Our first night in “the great city, we attended the Metropolitan Opera which is now featuring Joanne Slater in “Madame Butterfly. At the opera, we saw Lorraine Frazier who is to become the bride of John Rockerfeller, Jr., VI, in June. As we were walking down Broadway, we noticed that Rosemary Porter is now starring in the successful play, “The Sailor’s Wife. We are sorry to say that we weren’t in New York at the time Russ Johannsen was defending his heavy weight title at Madison Square Garden. While we were in New York, we were invited to stay at the Waldorf-Astoria by the manager, Don- ald Lindstrom. One evening we watched Eleanor Nelson’s “Story Telling Hour on television, which had as its guest star the lovely and talented Dorothy Richie. We also noticed a lengthy article in the “New York Sun” about Fred Clymer’s success- ful wild animal hunt in the deepest jungles of Africa. When none of us could sleep, we tuned in to George Wright’s all night disc jockey program called “Wright’s All Night Music. While we were in Paris, we visited Pierre’s (Tom Haugen’s) dress shop, where two of the fore- most models in Paris, Mimi, (Joan Nickleby) and Cheri, (Jerry Trudell), w'ere modeling gowns created by the exotic designer, Fifi, (Annette Staberg). On our way to the Far East, we stopped at Andora where Kenneth Hanson has just recently been appointed as Admiral of the Andorrean Navy. Delores Linehan is now living in the heart of China. She is writing a novel called “The American in China. Rita Hallenberger is acting as her pri- vate secretary. From China we flew by jet rocket to Alaska to visit w’ith the former Sally Dickenson, who is teach- ing English to the Eskimos. Then we flew to Hollywood, California, where we saw' Ronald Lein’s world premiere of his picture, “The Swede Among Strangers.” Lowell Windahl, the wealthy cattle rancher, was also at the premiere to congratulate Ronald on his wonderful performance. After our round-the-world journey, we were glad to get back to Washington, D. C., to discuss our travels with our neighbors. Catherine Loughney, the first woman senator from Wisconsin, and George Johnson, U. S. Secretary of Agriculture. As you see, Mr. Heiting, all of us have gained some measure of success, although perhaps our careers didn’t prove to be exactly what we had planned when we left you. Sincerely, Audrey Petersen Lucille Simpson Janet Solsvig Presidential Secretaries 22

Miss l.ee W hen the class of 1952 entered the Hudson High School in September of 1948, no doubt we were as confused as any freshmen class. Although some of the subjects were definitely required, we could make a few choices. After our pro- grams were organized, we had to learn to budget our time because it was a new exjierience for us to have study hours sej arated from class hours. However, our routine school work pro- gressed very satisfactorily as many of 11s qualifi- ed for extra curricular activities. We were well represented in Glee Club, Mixed Chorus, band, debate, and orchestra as well as in football, bas- ketball, boxing, and G. A. C. W e returned as energetic sophomores after a fun-packed vacation to earn a place for our- selves in the annals of Hudson High. We con- tinued our good work in outside activities as well as in scholastic achievements. As sophisticated juniors, we are nearing the top of our success ladder with more outside activities to participate in than ever before. We kept busy with Band. Mixed Chorus. Glee Club, Debate, and G. A. C. 1 he boys excelled in all the fields of sports, and we had reason to he proud of the six junior hoys who were on the A basketball team. I hey were I homas Salmon. Dean I leston. Dean I-arson. Donald Johnson, William Weitkamp. and Robert Nelson. Robert Iverson received the coveted honor of being chosen football captain for 1951-1952. Now, with exams over, we are leaving three very successful years behind us and are looking forward to our final vear here, and our futures. 23
