LAURA VOSIKA: Laura left school; she wanted to wed, but she decided on something else instead. J’m such a great driver; I think I can teach driver's ed to every woman and man. I’ll teach how to fix those spark plugs, how to change a tire, how to get out the bugs. I'll teach map reading and how to adjust to driving in Denver without any fuss. Laura’s school became known as a place to find, how to drive and stay between the yellow lines. One day a call from Hollywood came, the Fall Guy heart of her name and her fame. Would she drive a stunt car and do some tricks? Laura said, Sure, I will. I want out of the sticks, so her driving's seen now on Saturday nights. She's the Fall Guy's stunt driver and she does all right!!!!!!!!!! RON HEUCK: Ron Heuck wants to be an Alco Store man; he wanted a store as fast as he can. He started out—he really did well. The manager said, I've got a job with a bell. I need a blue-light specialist, a person who might run through the store from light to light. The blue light comes on and when its flashing, all those women come, really dashing. You can manage the sales when the light is blue, and all those women come rushing up to you. All of our bargains will go through your hands; those women will think they’ve reached the promised land. We’ve specials on clothes and dish towels and more; the blue light specials are great in this store. We put in items on sale for a time, and Ron can take in the money and see everything fine. Now Ron's famous from coast to coast. As the blue light specialist—he’s really the most ... LISA BRUNS: Pat Sajak announced to one and all, Vanna White is retiring early this fall. I need a beautiful young lady to take her place; I need someone beautiful—with an exceptional face. Someone who wears clothes beautifully too; who can turn those letters into view. Well, I'm interviewing in Denver early next week. Lisa Bruns heard him and said, I'll seek that job. I'd love to be on Wheel of Fortune, maybe then they’ll give me my portion of people and money and all that goes with being a star on a TV show. So Lisa was off to Hollywood, Cal., where she's done real well as a TV gal. She's been on DALLAS, DYNASTY, and FALCON CREST, and Lodgepole's proud of Lisa, the TV's best ... CRYSTAL CHRISTENSEN: Crystal went to Doane to study special ed; it sure didn't take Crystal long to get ahead. The Dean at Doane said, Crystal, why don't you represent Doane at a conference or two? We've one in Singapore and one in Berlin; Crystal said I’d love to—How do I get in? fust be yourself and while all the world hears, give a message of peace and hope and good cheer. Carry our message of peace to everyone, for all the children of the world under the sun. So Crystal started to bring good will all over the world I've heard tell. Now she is ambassador at the United Nations, representing the U.S. in foreign relations. We’re proud of Crystal, proud of her success; in a very tough job we wish her the best ... JOHN DEAL: I hear a new Elvis has appeared on the scene, I mean he's into a beat that's really keen. He’s electrifying and bad and wonderfully cool; just to think he came from Lodgepole School. Our John Deal is touring with his own band, hitting all the big spots throughout the land. From San Francisco to New York he's really a hit, he writes his own tunes—every single bit. His records are selling for lots of big bucks, and we sure wish him lots of luck ... KRISSY BARTLING: I remember Krissy B., don't you? She was tall and beautiful and good at sports too. She went to Nebraska Western after she graduated; she did marvelously well—she was often fated. She entered a beauty pageant and she won first prize, Miss Panhandle Nebraska, as you might surmise. She went on to Atlantic City and then on the stage; she won and she was the first Miss Nebraska to be all the rage. She won and she was Miss America and proud of the name; she made her walk and went out to great fame. Scholarships, cars, presents, wardrobes and all; Miss America loved them all—you may recall. She went on to TV fame—for when Jane Pauly of Today retired, our Krissy found it really pays. So she's on the TV every morning helping us know what's happened as another day's dawning ... JERRY CAMPBELL: 'Twa s a mid summers eve with lots of stars. Mr. Epling said, Class, let's go see Mars. It should be above the horizon right in view. It’s red and it's big and it shines right on you. Suddenly out of the east came dashing, a star ship with its lights all flashing. It's headed this way—oh me, oh my, that star ship's coming down on Lodgepole High. See on the side — make out the name, why it’s the Lodgepolian of very great fame. The captain’s Jerry Campbell—we remember that lad; he was from out north—he's made us glad, look the door is opening and who is coming out. Why it’s Jerry and his crew without a doubt. Hi, Mr. Epling, Jerry said, Do you like my starship I'm really the head, when I left Lodgepole School I wanted my wings. In the Air Force I learned all kinds of things. I studied hard and learned how to fly—I wanted to find out what happened to our class if they're out and about. I know that some of them stuck around and tonight we’re planning to see who can be found. We'll have steaks and trimmings and we will fix a bang up feast for the class of '86. Now the party's over and what a blast, to see those kids of '86—what has passed. To see how they've done so well, we’re really proud. Jerry, thank you for dropping by from your space ship so high in the sky. 10 THE END
