WHAT THE CLASS OF ’45 SHOULD DO FOR THE WORLD ♦ Our Class is small in size—but not in its power to do the impossi- ble. The looks of the class are superb. Never before has a class had such looks! It is beyond horsepower to judge the power it has to make noise—and of pep, it has galore. Some of the few things that have made our class so and will help to make it even better are: The inclination of the whole class to study rather than have good times???, the handsome appearance of Vincent, the quiet manners of Doris, the ability of Wanda to get on the good side of the teachers, the ability of Frank to appease the teachers and the winning ways of Jean. Now as to what the class should do for the world—Frank with his highly developed agricultural instincts has been able to grow two pumpkins on the same vine already. In the future we look for him to grow peas that need no shelling, cherries that have no pits, corn that ripens in 20 days. Now if we asked Frank what his highest ambition is—we all know what he wculd answer!!! Now Vincent, the boy who studied physics even though it wasn’t taught, will benefit the world someday by producing a sleeping potion that can be administered by telepathy that will put a wife to sleep and prevent her from waking when her husband comes in at two of a morn- ing. In addition tc this talent, Vincent will no doubt come across with new house plans for our future homes. Vincent should have quite a spread with his desire for food, houseful of kids, and a lovely home. Wanda, the gal who loves to sing, to dance and is fend of life that’s gay. will find a change when she weds and cooks three generous meals every day. In addition to her career of music, Wanda will no doubt also tell us how to subjugate the boss, (husband) with frosted cakes and cherry pies. Jean, the Juliet (f ’45, caught Frank in her first try. Frank and Jean will benefit the world by bringing four sets of twins with turned up noses and boy!! what athletes. Jean is an experienced ranch hand so between her and Frank they should be able to give us purple and gold cattle. Doris, the prim and proper model of the Class (???) will give the world the finest and most standard book of etiquette ever published!! Some of the rules stressed will be: girls enjoy yourselves, have many beaux, let your hair hang as it will. And too, she will be able to give us some pointers on housekeeping, and how to hold your man. Page 29
