These are the pre- dictions The Sheik gave to us as the Seniors will be in 1955. John Eidemiller and Henry Davidson are presenting a know it all program every Wednesday night over Station S M A R T. Rozann Garwood is now keeping house at Troy for Bill Myers, Sr. and Bill Myers, Jr. Joe Wright and Bob Ellfrltz are now partners in operating a theater at Third and Main in Ludlow Falls. Barbara Brant is chief operator on the switch board in Day- ton, Ohio. It keeps her pretty busy watching over the other operators and talking to the big business men. Bill Hale enlarged his chicken farm last year, and with his chicken money he has to support five little Hales. Reverend John Shelley is now preaching at the Menonite Church at Garland. You can hear him every Sunday morn- ing, and every Wednesday and Sunday nites, Nancy Waymire is married to Von Haworth. She still has trouble losing her false tooth at times. Carl Cummins is now running for mayor in West Milton. He says one way to stay out of trouble is to be the law yourself. Norma Blackburn, known as Blackie, the Hypnotist , is taking all honors in this business. She soon shall go abroad. Betty Vore is now married to a Millionaire Merchant Marine and has thirteen maids, and is still taking life easy. You people, who listen to the Barn Dance on Saturday nite, be sure to pay special attention to the program's star attrac- tion, the yodeler. She is our own classmate, Helen Thomp- son. Ruth Graney's good nature and generosity is still with her. She is now busy giving piano lessons to everyone in town who wishes to play, also doing sketching on the side. One of her sketches will be shown at the West Milton World's Fair. Mary Swift is now the owner of a skating rink in Detroit. Bob Kelly is her skate boy and Jesse Seeker is the profes- sional bouncer. She ought to hook one of those men sooner or later. Charles Hutton has became famous since graduating from high school. He's now playing with Harry James. His spe- cialty ls boogie Woogie . Bernadlne Dohner is now famous for her home-made candy. She gives credit to Miss Sauerman for all of her success in sweets. Lee Minnlch still thinks he has a Charles Atlas build but after five years of marriage we notice he is getting chunky in spots. Imogene Furlong is now a dressmaker. She has had the pleasure of making dresses for many famous women. Dona Thuma is now secretary to a large firm in Chicago. The experience received from being secretary to the Senior Class prompted her to take this position. Annabelle Swartz is head cook of the cafeteria at Waco. She heard about the old proverb The way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Levaune Kelly is still driving a tractor on one of her hus- band's big estates, just like the old days. John Evans has just finished his fifth symphony and now ranks with Mozart and Beethoven. Bob Kirby is now the owner of a large peanut plantation in Mississippi. He and Kathleen have a busy time taking care of all the little Kirbys. g Glen Minkner is busy teaching all boys that are beginning to shave how to be successful in growing mustaches. He is now sprouting a goatee! Peggie Pearson, that great opera singer, has just returned from a successful tour in Europe. She rests up by being a nurse's aide. All the buying for the Rike-Kumler Company is now ln the hands of Shirley Pearson. She is thinking of opening a shop of her own in New York soon. Gordon Helsinger worked so hard polishing cars during his Senior year, that he now lets his wife do all the work and is taking life easy. Gloria Norris is waiting for the time when the boy from But- ler, that great athlete, moves closer to West Milton. And, oh, yes--her favorite color is Brown. Armidene Niles has her own school of cooking now and sam- ples everything that is made. Her appetite has not changed from the old school days, has it? Charles Fine, the great lover of M-U has a basket ball squad of his own, we hear. They are known as the FIGHTING FINESJ' James Helstern is busy these days, bragging about his mas- tiff dog kennels. To date he has eighty pedigreed and regis- tered dogs, and an extra dog house, just in case Mrs. Hel- stern rebels. ' Bill Brown has his own garage and repairs all the cars that Bill Hale and Carl Cummins drive. We hear that he's get- ting more sleep than he did while going to school. Dwain Detrick has organized his own swing band and is tour- ing the country. Dwain and Hal McIntyre are running neck and neck for popularity. Ned Iddings has a dude ranch out in California. All the movie stars go there to rest up. Ned is still hatching it, as usual. The last we heard of Letha Snyder, Annabelle Engle, and Mildred Kniesly they were missionaries in China. Perry Deeter is operating a Rexall drug store on Third and Main, Potsdam, Ohio. Among other things, it has a large soda fountain with Bill Siler as chief soda jerk, and one din- ing room with Phyllis Thompson acting as head waitress. The Three Musketeers, Johnny Thompson, Galen Minnich, and Ray Todd, are now the three famous backfield men for Ohio State. Although they got off to a bad start this year, they seem to be doing pretty well now and hope to take the Big 10 championship. Another one of our great druggists of '45, Nadine Ford, has just finished college and seems to be doing pretty well with her nursing. Specialty-Bachelors with big bank rolls. Joan Rex, our all round athlete, is now physical education teacher at Milton-Union. Donna Lou Netzley is a cadet nurse now. She is doing very well and is serving overseas. Jean Kelly is now married to a professional boxer. They are doing very nicely with their twelve little boxers. Helen Arnett is a confidential secretary to Mr. Bube, and she has been offered several important jobs but she won't accept them. Glen Heisey is ill again.
