CLASS PROPHECY The time is June 3, 1985. The place is Thump-Thump on the South Road, the old stomping ground of the Class of '65. The occassion is the first reunion, and members of the Class of '65 have come from everywhere. As the reunion is getting under way, it might be interesting to look around and note the various changes in the lives of our past classmates, and see what each of these people has become in twenty years. We have many distinguished guests among us. The most honored guest is the President of the United States and his first lady, Michael McCallister and Virgie Bird (Anzures). Mike won the 1984 election by a landslide, and we are all proud of him. And who is that in the bushes wearing dark glasses? It's none other than Gorgeous Paul Smith. Paul has just recorded his first golden record, I Love Me with a flip side of I'm Mr. Wonderful. It's nice to see he brought along his race horse, Pierre. Here is another distinguished celebrity, Jerry Christman. You can all watch Jerry on TV where he replaced Ladmo on the Wallace and Ladmo Show. Oh, I sec Susan Pollock, the famous author of The Sky Is Blue . And who is the eager-beaver chasing our celebrities? It's Carmen Lopez. Carmen is now manager and owner of the Sultana Theater. She must be anxious to have our celebrities appear at her theater. The man in the spotted coveralls is John Basham. He followed his father's footsteps and is now the town's painter. Tom Aguilar is always on the move. You'll find him at every state fair selling baloons. And of course, there is the noted professor of nuclear physics, George Homer. Parris Atherton is now residing in Paris, France, where he is making thousands as head cameraman of the Cameramen's Association. I believe he got his start working on the annual staff of W.H.S. Who is that lady dressed so extravagantly? It's the former Sally Lugo, now married to a Canadian tycoon who made his fortune by raising mink. Sally is wearing a white mink coat estimated at $10,000. (X). And of course, there's Benny Vega. Benny squeezes lemons for the Sun Kist Company. Henry Lira is the manager of the Ford Garage here in Williams where he features models of 58 Fords. And there's Jerry McCain who is executive-manager of the Volkswagon Corporation. Jerry now features 409 Ford engines in the 1985 Volkswagons. Jean Goeglein has just returned from New York City where she was a big hit at the Madison Square Garden Horse Show with her horse, Gypsy. Here comes the famous head coach of Notre Dame, Fritz Martin, and the former Georgia Williams, his wife. Fritz has had a very successful year with 15 wins and 0 losses. Keep up the good work Fritz! As we move along, we see Tom Shilling, the famous stage director. He was so successful in the Junior Play that he decided to make a career of it. Sharon Williamson is manager of a New York 5 8 10 cent store. Virginia Teresi is a successful Hollywood hair stylist. Those two men sitting under a tree are the Nagillar twins, John and Earl, who own a large spread in New Mexico called the Double Q Ranch. The gentleman wearing glasses and looking nervously around is Tom McGrath, keeper of a light house in the middle of Lake Mead. Bill Pettit still runs the projector at the Sultana Theater. We were surprised to find that Betty Brown took Mr. Holmes' advice and went into government teaching. John Cassels is now a millionaire. He discovered an ingenous new va for removing warts. Those two old friends talking in the comer are Freddie Salazar and Robert Pena. Freddie is a jockey. Although he's never won a horse race, he's still trying. Don't give up Freddie; we're right behind you! You can all watch Robert on Saturday nights on the Lawerence Welk Show. He's the bubble blower, you know. And there's Cokie Black! We're all very proud of Cokie ! She put Williams on the map by having a set of quintuplets. The town of Williams thanks you Cokie! And there is another classmate to be proud of, the famous Olympic Track Star with five gold medals to his credit, Mike Ornelas. Keep up the good work Michael!!! We all recognize the top executive of Wall Street, Alex Sandoval. He's now going on his fifth million. It's interesting to learn that Shannon Johnson is now residing on the moon. Raymond Reyes and Paul Quiriarte known as the Taco Twins own a chain of taco stands throughout Mexico and Southern Arizona, And of course, we all remember Janie Gresham. Janie is the owner of the elite nite-club, the Kitty Kat. Dennis Rossmeier informs us that he is employed as a bartender and bouncer at Janie's Club. The lady blowing her nose is the president and owner of the Kleenex Corporation, Dory Duncan. She discovered that it would be less expensive to buy out the corporation than to go on buying Kleenex. And last but not least, here's Tony Luna and the former Yolanda Cardenas. They've finally gotten together! Instead of arriving in their separate Buicks marked His and Hers, they arrived together in a Pontiac marked Ours! It has been exciting, spending these past few hours recalling the wonderful and memorable moments shared by the entire Class of 65. 12
