CLASS PROPHECY Time: 1966 Place: My home I am sitting here watching Ed Murrow's Person-To-Person television program and tonight he visited the homes of all the 1956 Barneveld High School graduates. A summary of his visits is as follows: Viola Arndt is leading a successful life as a housewife near Platteville. Jackie Berg has attended four years of art school, and at the present is revising and repainting the movie, Artists and Models. Arbutus Bohle is still working in Madison at the switchboard, and is making a stab for every bachelor that rings her number. Barbara Burns is leading a happy life as a mother and housewife, She has four little Moyers to entertain her. Walter Campbell has a ten year contract with Joey Chitwood as a deatndodger. He is doing well, because of his past experiences as a daredevil in 1956. Carl Christen is the Republican Governor of Wisconsin. He plans to run for president in the next national election. Dick Dauck is married and has a family. He is a retired lawyer and is living in a mansion. Karen Duffey has spent six years at the University of Wisconsin taking general courses, and is still trying to decide what to major in. LeRoy Evans has conquered the home place, and has gathered himself a gorgeous wife, two boys, and a girl. After eight years with the Leathernecks, Don Gilbertson has found himself a wife and is living in his home community. Paul Helgeson has deepened his interest in the Duerst homestead, and thinks now that he can swing it. Bernard Henry is still working, paying for the '47 Plymouth. Larry Jabs is having trouble going to college, and supporting Sharon and their five young ones. Marian Meyer is giving dancing lessons at all the neighboring Army Camps. Marvel Nelson has gone into business making his own automobiles. Jim Owens is general manager of the Barneveld Co-op. Joe Owens has bought out the Thoni Feed and Fuel Co. Monica Ryan is still working, but she still has hope for herself, as she says, Life begins at forty. Bill Short is living at Spring Green, where he has spent most of his time since he graduated. Dick Theobald is a retired farmer and is an agent for the Farm Bureau. Merton Watrud is a Five Star General in the Army. His job is training natives in Africa. He thinks he’s a wheel that will never stop rolling. Carol Stenseth is a secretary in a pawn shop. She plans to get married in her late 70's. Stanley Wetter is manager of Barneveld Motors, and is doing an excellent job of supporting Carol. After my television set was turned off, I sat there dreaming of the fun and happiness our class had shared. In concluding my dream, I come to this statement, Memory is one gift of God that time cannot destroy.
