And it is youth who must inherit the tribulation, the sorrow, and the triumphs that are the aftermath of war.

Class Prophecy In the year 1984, STEVE PRUIETT, a famous archaeologist, upon exploring the ancient ruins along the Nile, discovered Aladdin's lamp. While rubbing the dust off the lamp, he heard a rumbling sound - from within. Suddenly, REX FRYE popped out and said, Your wish is my command. After recovering consciousness, Steve said, My wish is to see my former classmates of 1966. So Rex turned into a fly- ing carpet, and Steve began his journey. While floating over Arabia, Steve glanced down and saw RODNEY HINRICHS trying to invent a humpless camel. Continuing his journey, he saw STEVE FRERICHS in Turkey hunting pheasants. Moving onward to Russia, we see BRUCE OWENS filming a new movie, From Russia with Pam. PAM is portray- ing the secret agent. Flying over the Black Sea, we find ANN AHLF drilling for ink. Flying over Siberia, LINDA KARSKY is trying to tell Khruschev, Things could be worse. Continuing on to China, we find CHARLIE HEDRICK preaching birth control. Crossing Japan, we also find ROGENE CUNNINGHAM as a geisha girl. We slide over the Arctic and find MARCIA GORDON and AGNES DORSEY throwing snowballs at theabominable snowman. Crossing the Yukon, we find RODNEY PARRISH driving a team of dogs. Down the road, we see a sign that says COAKLEY AND CLAPP, Igloos Inc. A little further down the road, we see CAROL WOLFE practicing dentistry for walruses. Crossing over the northern part of Canada, we watch GLORIA ASHCRAFT teaching American history to the Canadian Indians. Heading southward, we find MARILYN DIVAN off Niagara Falls. Crossing back over the Rockies, we see JOHN HARRISON and ALAN SCHLUTER prospecting for chewing gum. In California, we find SAM PARK and MARCIA KING drag racing on the Sunset Strip. In Las Vegas, we see ED HUNT with his nose stuck in a roulette wheel, and PAULA PUTNAM wedged between two slot machines. CASSIE NORVILLE, owner, is trying to un-stick and un-wedge Ed and Paula. As we fly over Salt Lake City, we find BARBARA OSTERBUR taking samples from the lake for the Morton Salt Company. Crossing Pike's Peak, we hear ILENE SCHLUTERyodeling her theme song. New Country Cornflakes. Passing over the Smokey Mountains, we find DANN PAYNE determined to out-smoke them. Downward to Texas, we find CAROL JOHNSON selling L.B.J. hats in hopes that he will return. Entering the state of Missouri, we see JANET RADAMACHER recording for the Grand Ole Opera. In Mississippi, we find JAMIE MARRON, GUYLA LEARNED, and JANIS TUCKER protesting demonstrations. After Mississippi, we go to Milwaukee, Wisconsin and find JOHN EPLEY trying to produce a liquor without after affects. Going over our metropolis of Penfield, Rex tips his turban to the gas station attendant, LINDA REYNOLDS. As we fly over Broadway, we see NANCY OWEN under the lights--a stand-in to Wimpee. Flying over the Atlantic Ocean, we find MIKE SMITH trying to ride Flipper. Coming into Spain, we find CINDY POWELL as the world's greatest tortilla maker. Now to Italy, where we meet the architect, MARVIN ACKERMAN, trying to straighten the Leaning Tower of Pisa. PEGGY PRICHARD and ANN BOYLE have just left the vineyards with ingrown toenails from crushing grapes. I return to Egypt--ending my archaeology adventure and allowing Rex to return to his beauty sleep. 20 Underclassmen Juniors Greg Acton Sherrie Beddoe Gayle Brooks Debbie Buck President..............Diane Hoveln Treasurer.................

The Trojans turned in a similar performance against ABL on November 19, clinching that victory by twenty-one. points, 64 to 43. After tumbling Rankin by fifteen, 56 to 41, in our Homecoming game, the Armstrong quintet marched on and dumped Potomac by a score of 74 to 59 and Georgetown by a mildly surprising eighteen points, 73 to 55. Still unbeaten, the potent Arm- strong crew overcame a fourth quarter scoring surge and knocked off the favored St. Joseph-Odgen Spartans, 55 to 49. Then the Trojans moved to Rossville where they kept a perfect record by downing the Bobcats, 80 to 51. Armstrong swept the East Lynn Hornets, 75 to 57 in the Chrisman Holiday Tour- nament. The Trojans went on to a practically duplicate performance against Westville, 71 to 50. Also, that victory gave Armstrong the right to meet Catlin for the title. The Armstrong quintet proved itself worthy by stopping the Catlin five, 81 to 71, thereby clinching the title. Proceeding from Chrisman with a perfect 10-0 record, the Trojans raised it to 11-0 by smashing Uniy High, 86 to 48. After downing Catlin by nineteen points, 91 to 72, Armstrong met a surprisingly pesky Ridgefarm team, but again proved their strength and downed the Bulldogs, 72 to 69. The Trojans then went into the county tournament as the only undefeated team in Vermilion County. The Trojans squeaked past Westville in a hair-raising overtime. 78 to 77. Armstrong then downed Potomac for the second time during the season, 55 to 47 in order to meet Hoopeston for the title. But then came to disheartening loss. The Trojans fell to Hoopeston, 54 to 49. Armstrong reverberated from that defeat by trimming the Bismarck Blue Devils, 53 to 43. Showing their early season poise, Armstrong scorched past a much improved Potomac Artesian team, 80 to .71, bringing the season record to 17-1. The Trojans then blitzed West- ville for the third time during the season, 73 to 59. After dropping Jamaica, 78 to 61, Armstrong tripped Rankin, 61 to 47. The Trojans upped their season mark to 21-1 by dumping Young America in a 104 to 69 score. The mighty Trojans kept the ball rolling by routing the Homer Rockets, 99 to 58. Armstrong then scorched Milford, 106 to 73 to end the regular scheduled season undefeated. Armstrong met rival Potomac for the fourth time during the season and stepped over them, 68 to 59 in order to meet the Sheldon Rams for the district title. The outcome of that game was 70 to 59 in favor of Arm- strong. Armstrong met Milford in the first game at the regional. The Bearcat's hope of defeating the Trojans by using slow-down tactics were stymied and the Trojans won, 31 to 26. in the second round, Armstrong came from fourteen points behind to trim the Central of Clifton Comets, 76 to 62 for the regional championship and the right to meet Paxton in the opening round of the Champaign sectional. Against 6' 8 Bill Hansen and his Mustangs, Armstrong remained in the state title run in a 52 to 51 cliff-hanger. But then the unknown Little David school met a tough Urbana five and went down fighting, 63 to 54. The Armstrong Trojans ended their 1965-66 season with 29 wins, 2 losses, and memories of Armstrong Township High School's greatest basketball team. 3 Court 4 Aetion 5 Where did you come from!
