Announcer: Brenda Fred Bre nda Fred Brenda Fred Bre nda Fred Class Prophecy Ladies and Gentlemen of the television audience, It is my privilege to announce the name of the high school class which has contributed the most to world progress in the past twenty years. This aspiring class graduated from Archbold High School in the year 1957. And now Ladies and Gentlemen it gives me great pleasure to present Miss Brenda Pursel, the nation's Secretary of Health, Education and Wel- fare. Thank you, Tony Gerkins. And now Ladies and Gentlemen, I present the president of the Newsman's Guild, Fred Gearing. Thank you, Brenda. It certainly is an honor to present all of our classmates to the nation via televi- sion from this spacious Hollywood Bowl. Indeed it is Fred, and here is the first one. In the field of political science, the President of the United States, Myrl Sauder. Next, Gene Graf, Secretary of Agriculture, then Junior Schantz, Secretary of the Navy. Here is the senior senator from Ohio, Ilva Nafziger, and sitting on her right, the Rev. Veryl Roth, Chaplain of the Senate. Veryl is followed by his wife, the former Norma Burkholder, now head of the Society for the prevention of Contagious Diseases. Norma is well known for her fight a- gainst Scarlatina. She really belongs in the next category, Fred, the field of Medicine. Suppose you introduce the principals. That I will, Benji. After Norma, we have Dr. William Palmer, now head of the College of Obstetrics in darkest Africa. His wife-assistant, the former Vee Schlatter, and he have made remarkable advan- ces in educating the natives in this territory. Elaine Frey is head of the Physical Therapy department, and has found a companion in a little brown chimpanzee. In the adjoining hospital, Florence Herbert, the head nurse, is assisted by Verlene Nafziger, Wynemia Klopfenstein and Louise Nofziger, the heads of the various departments. Now I present Mr. and Mrs. Tom Stevens fthe former JoAnn l-Iuffmanj now living in Antartica. JoAnn is working on a cure for frost-bite in the Bajanjo Hospital, thus named for its founders, Balbina Lisak, Janeth Schantz, and Joan Lovejoy. Tom is head football coach of the University of Antartica. His Assistant football coach and also Music Director is Beryl Grisier. That introduces us to the field of sports, with Ben Westfall leading the way. Ben, now in his eighteenth season with the Cleveland Indians, is an All-Star shortstop and has a lifetime batting average of.358. His roommate is the manager, Doyle, Tubby Hayes. Doyle and Ben have set up bachelor quarters in rooms under the stadium. Their landlord is Carl Guerrero, who made his fortune on quiz shows, The Guerrero Stadium was designed by Joan Williams of Williams, Williams, Williams and Williams Ar- chitectural firm. Now, Brenda, would you like to present our classmates who are in the field of entertainment. O.K. Fred. First, we have Ramiro Trejo, who received the best actor of the year award for his por- trayal in Around The Sun In 80 Days . Next is Janet Myers, who has just received her fifth gold rec- ord from Mecca Records, commemorating the sale of her five million records. Her husband, disc jockey, Roger Vonier, is responsible for her success. Dreamy Dewey Penrod, the successor to Elvis Pres- ley, is now approaching. Dreamy is attired in an aqua and orange zoot suit, Penrod is the latest heart throb since the Pelvis. Janis Peters, successor to Liberace, is giving a concert in this very bowl on Friday night. Janis bids everyone to attend. And now, before we continue, a word from our sponsor, Storrer Motors. For the best Service in town, see Gary Storrer, at Storrer Motors. He has the best in used cars and his own Storrer 8 is the number one road car in America. So, drop in tomorrow and see Gary Storrer. Rev, Larry Fish wishes me to invite all of you to his tent meeting in Burbank next Thursday. Larry has established one of the largest tent revivals in America. And now, I would like to present the principals in a field close to my heart, Education. In my capacity I rather control the field, and I must say without prejudices, that Margret Rupp is a symbol for all educators in the country. Her as- sistant, Jeanette Sauder, and Maggie have made the American School System proud of Ohio Educa- tion. Donna Jo Baldwin has been named teacher of the year and I am happy to present her with this award for her achievement. In our home town highschool, Archbold, another classmate, Lois Myers, has succeeded Miss Fagley, after a ten year apprenticeship as an English teacher on a college level. Rex Short another classmate, is head of the Agriculture Department at MSU, East Lansing. You know, we have many aspiring classmates who entered the field of agriculture. Suppose you present them Fred. Fine. First, the Farmer of the Year, Curtis Zaerr and his wife, the former Margaret Zuercher, are well known in agricultural circles throughout the country for their scientific methods of farming. Ran- dy Wyse, Farrner of the Year for 11 straight years with his 7000 acre turkey farm is now retired, and living a life of ease in Florida. Ronnie Fielitz has made his first million as a livestock broker, with Gary Pickett his chief Transportation officer. Ronnie Gigax, the leading tomato farmer in the state for four years rxmning is next. Working for Ronnie as fore man is Bob Hausch. They flew to the coast last night i'n Gigax's plane, piloted by Bob Steensen. Earl Riegsecker is the Vo-Ag teacher at Arch- bold, taking over when Mr. Gallaway retired. Well, Fred, if nothing else, our class should eat very well! Now, before we go any farther, I would like to present Arletta Kennel, a model. Arletta has been modeling Airplanes for Boeing for the past seven years. Gary Rupp is the head of the Accounting Department at Boeing. You know, Fred, that many of our people have had 'secretarial careers. Janet Erbscorn is secretary to Mr. Jacob Burkholder, State Supt. of Schools. Carolyn Miller is the head of the office staff at LaChoy. Doris Thomas and Grace Waidelich are her right hand girls. Arlene Rupp is President Sauder's private secretary. Donna Gaddis is a C.P.A. and has her own office in Washington and has become well known, helping various classmates with their income tax problems. Carolyn Bridges is a timekeeper for U.S. Steel, working in Pittsburgh, Pa. Now, Fred, suppose you present the rest of the class, in their miscellaneous occupations. All right, we'll move right along to Sandra Hall and Pauline Leininger, owners of Sapaul's, world famous beauty salon in New York. Their chief customer is Dorthy Leu, fashion model for Fogue Maga- zine. Last year Dorthy was selected as Miss Fire Extinguisher of 1976. Sondra Miller is a flight stewardess for Georgia Airlines. We hope, Ladies and Gentlemen, fellow students and classmates that you have enjoyed this Prophecy as we have inbringing it to you, and in closing, we wish to say that we are both very proud to have been a part of the Archbold High School Class of 1957. Brenda Pursel and Fred Gearing
