Class Prophecy As the prophets of our class, we have the power to see far into the future. We may discover our classmates living throughout the United States. Although their occupations may seem somewhat altered from what they planned while in high school, we, nevertheless, predict that their l1fe's patterns will be designed as in the following paragraphs: Note to classmates: If what we have prophesied seems different from your own future plans, consider the number of years we have had to weigh ---- and after all we are rather young to be prophets! We prophesy that Jack Amenda will go to Hollywood after graduating from high school. Due to the death of J'IEy Durante, Jack will fulfill Durante's job. .Tack may still be a bachelor after passing by some actresses like Marilyn Monroe. Jack will become an ardent golf enthusiast and hope to enter the National Green Golf Tournament. In foretelling the future we see Leanne Belken as a secretary in Alaska. She always searched for new horizons and after Her one visit to Dawson City and the Yukon Territory in Alaska she knew that that country was big, powerful, and un- predictable. Since there were many Air Force bases with secretarial openings, she was able to secure a job at oneof these, Because of the war in Europe, Bob Bockho and his wife fthe former Sally Simmons! will be stationed in France. e wi remain with the National Guard. Bob will invent a trans-Atlantic telephone so he may talk to his two children who will be staying with thelr grandparents in Belmont, Wisconsin. The telephone will be most unusual as you will have to stand on your head while talking. A large beef cattle farm two miles north of Belmont will be managed by none other than Paul Borcherdi and his wife the former Catherine Landon. Paul won't find it necessary to re any extra help as his ten sons will help him and will also furnish him with the baseball team he always wanted. If you ever hear a goat bleat, I'm sure you will know you are coming close to the Buss Goat Ranch. Donald will take over this farm after his marriage to his former High school sweetheart, Judith Ludlum. In their spare time we predict they may drive stock cars at the Darlington Fair Grounds. The Mound View Old Ma1d's Home will be managed by Jean Dol hin. She will more than likely spend her busy hours of the dag working in t e garden because Curtis Rodolf will help her in his spare time. urtis and Jean will be locally famous for their square dancing technique. Priscilla Eustice, the editor-in-chief of our annual, will edit the paper 'Improving South Amer1ca.' She will take over this job after she and her husband, Lowell Hinkins, move there. Lowell will take a job there after graduating from Mining School. Priscilla and Lowell will have five redheaded girls. Ruth Flo el will marry Ronnie Jones and they will run a stock farm, in Mesa, Arizona. e ones' will find it necessary to have their farm quite a distance from town for with their twelve children it will be hard to keep them at home. They will have five TV sets and keep everyone of them tuned to channel 28 so they will be sure to hear Jerry Frantz, their favorite entertainer. Immediately after graduating from high school, Barbara Fowler will leave for New York City where she plans to model evening gowns. We predict her best cue- tomer will probably be Mrs. Gladys Beaumont. On her vacation, Barb will 50 to Australia to visit and old boy friend, who will become chief engineer for a gold mining company. Ten years from now, if you turn on television at seven thirty P.M. on channel 28 on Sunday you may hear none other than the great Jerry Fronts. Jerry will be sponsored by the Chevrolet dealers all over the world. He will be known for his talent for singing and playing his steel guitar. His favorite song 'The Yellow Rose of Texas,' he may dedicate to Hr. Alton Weber a favorite teacher while in high school. We predict the biggest surprise in our class will be when Jeanette Jansen marries Bob Burbach. We prophesy that they will be living in a two-story trailer in the Georgetown area. Jeanette will find it a little crowded with her five children, who will be continuously under her feet. The Burbachs will be engaged in raising chickens that lay colored eggs. Dick Kail, our Belmont Mouse Catcher, will keep the Belmont Dairy Co-op in business buying there all the Swiss cheese needed for his many traps. While catching mice at the Robbins Supper Club he will become interested in the business and we expect he will be chef there on week-ends. Looking through our crystal ball, we see Marlene Kamps as a nurse in the Cuba City Hospital. Dick Kail and some of Marlene's closer friends from Cuba City will probably be her most popular patients. Marlene will be a specialist on operating on big toes as that is the most likely spot for the pains to be centered.
