Class Prophecy As I sit in front of my Fireplace. I think of the days long gone hy and of all the friends with whom l graduated. Time Hies rapidly: it is now the vear 1950 .-XD. Twenty years ago we graduated from good old Stoughton High School and now we are engaged in various professions. l.et's look around and see what some of our old friends are doing. Betty Drotning has taken up surgery. She swings a mean knife. Mildred, Nora, and Vivian are in hig time now. Their giggling act paralyzes thousands. Previous experience-s-English IV! Morris Lewis is a Hoorwalker in a large department store. lle says the hest way to he successful is to train hard while in lngh school. Phyllis Larson and Marian Kittelson are running a popular tearoom. Ruth Yold has at last attained her goal. She is a cartoonist for the State ylonrnal. Clifford Berg is editor of the Courier-Huh. He got his experience as editor of the Yahara. . George Schuster is the world's champion hog caller. They say the hogs tlock to lnm by the thousands. Fat Severson is director of his own orchestra now. lle recently made a trip to Europe to play before royalty. U Don Johnson is serving time in Sing Sing Prison. Authorities say he is the hest janitor that they have ever had. The experience was acquired from Mr. Hill, no donht. Robert Chase is head of the street cleaning department of lidgerton. The streets there are the cleanest in the state. Jams Scott is slinging hash at the liatmore Restaurant. Ile guarantees his services. Matt and Roh are missionaries in Africa.

John Moore is running a pool hall of his own. Beatrice Bragstad recently won the much coveted title of 'tfiliss America. The young xnen stand and wait for hours just to catch a sight of her. Eugene VVesthrook's rich. mellow voice is thrilling thousands. He is working with the Salvation Army. Margaret Nordlie is teaching in Stoughton High School. She certainly makes her pupils behave. Betty Long is in Reno siting Norman Cinllickson for a divorce. Her grounds are cruelty. Greg is coaching at Notre Dame. Beside him Rockne is insignificant. L'Fat and Margaret are still going together. NYe all wonder when they will he married. Ethel Nelson is at present leading a drive for funds to estahlish a hospital for sick cats in the city of Chicago. Eddy Dicklin is a teacher in Delavan Deaf School. Stanley Severson is now a great scientist. There are very few things that Stanley docsn't know. Howard Pliner is running the Cioodie Shop. llis malteds are a dream. Norris Linderud has taken over the leadership of .Xl L'apone's gang. Ile snre is a tough agate. Harriet Kvalheiin and Anna llarried are married and are living in lidgerton. Howard Rohertson recently signed with the Cnhs. llis timely hitting aided the Cubs in taking the VVorld Series. These are the few in our old class ahont whom l happen to know. The others are scattered all over the world and have not been heard-from tor many years. I trust, however, that they are also as successtul as these few ot which something is known. T w

Further in forensics. the Debate teain was practically niade up of juniors.
