Tommy (?la55 Prophecy We, the senior class of 58 , Sadly leave our Birch Run High, We've been together these four full years. And now must say goodbye. This June we leave to seek our goals. And we'll try our very best. To make our marks in sands of time. Whatever be the test. Who knows what lies ahead of us. Or what ten years may bring, Let's gaze into our crystal ball. And rub our magic ring. In Birch Run High we find a new coach. He's the best they've ever had. With Leo Bel ill on the job. The fans will always be glad. A private secretary is Earlene, She's as happy as can be. With pad and pencil she spends the day. Sitting on the boss's knee. A new car with a screaming siren, A new uniform of blue, Dutch is a proud State Trooper, And doing a great job, too. A house of brick, or wood, or stone, Ron Cole designs them all. Just say what kind of home you want. He'll draw it, large or small. Across the finish line speeds Dave Cooper, The winner of another race. He's followed the race track around the world, With his hot rod setting the pace. Kay Davenport could go all the way to the top, As a starlet she could make them all sigh, She's got what it takes to be greatest of greats, But she can't tell old Birch Run goodbye. Next in line, we see Mary Dolfi, Working in the medical field. Her one desire day after day. Is to see that her patients are healed. Working in her white frame house, Ruthie is busy, we see. While Loren minds the store. They're now owners of Douglas Grocery. Can this be Jerry Ferguson? This kind of luck is rare! Strolling in tophat and tails. He's a multi-millionaire.

High on a hill in a ten-room house, Donna Gaunt stands with mop and broom. Here she lives, with her ten little tots, Each one in a different room. Still in business schogl is Beverly Grim, Learning more shorthand and filing, A bachelor's secretary she will someday be. Is it no wonder she's smiling? Through the clear, sunlit sky. Flies pilot Jerry Hart, As a top SAC man. He's off to a flying start. Ken Hart's still single and running around. He's the life of the party, they say. He has all the girls in a tizzy. But one will trap him some day. Who are the copyboys chasing? Why, it's Carol Hauck we see. As reporter for the Detroit Free Press, A regular scoop is she. And who is this on the pitcher's mound? It's Freddie Hauck we see. He's the Tiger's leading hurler now. And is hitting .403. Jim Hobson is now Birch Run's barber. Beside Hermie's he shaves all the mugs. With his ranch-style home and two Pontiacs, He's snug as a bug in a rug. With great concern she watches the kids. And cleans the house clear through, Judy Hobson has many household chores. And teaches the kindergarten, too. Agnes Husen has made many hits. Her records are right on top. As a deserving protege of the beloved Kate Smith, She sings opera, folk songs, and pops. An office position with all the works. Was the dream of Sandra Janni, And now, with all this work, she admits, A husband would be mighty handy. The image of Gordon Kime, Now shines in our crystal ball, The GM president he hopes to become. But still answers his foreman's call. As the head of a firm. In New York state, Joyce King proclaims, Metropolitan life Is great. MEL'S T.V. SERVICE Phone MA 4-9451 Birch Run, Michigan I a 5 5 Prophecy (?on t. Although the part of Ginger was, Played as a professional great. Miss Magnus, in white dress and cap. Is the best nurse in the state. Kaye Marko is now a housewife, Busily preparing for little Emily, For any day now there will be, A new addition to the family. A big success is one Bob Moore, His famous name will never fade. As the author of many poems and songs, He got his break on the Hit Parade. ' “ ' • ‘ oit. For when the football season begins. He'll be the Lion in-the fullback position. Jerry's Bar and Grill, Is known for miles around. Besides serving the tastiest food, Mr. Morse is the best bartender in town. The new teen idol. Is actor. Bob Kenny, He's just passed Elvis, In popularity and penny. The food we eat, the milk we drink. All come from one we know. Jack Muehlfeld, successful in running a farm. Is making a lot of dough. Frank Newvine is receiving acclaim, For putting us back in the race. He's getting the missiles off the ground. We now lead in the quest of space. Milking, plowing, and feeding the pigs. Farmer Owens works hard all day, From dawn to dusk Pat toils and sweats, To buy his horses their hay. One hundred and five words a minute. The typewriter speeds along, John is setting another record, That Pennington boy can do no wrong. And here is Mr. Fix-it-all, Our own George Reed, we mean. He's a handsome electrician. As can easily be seen. Who's this peering through lenses? It's Doctor Price, we're told, Joe's been successful in research. He's found a cure for the common cold. Compliments A Friend CHAS.

In the big city of New York, A small town girl's the Toast Of The Town , Vivian Remender parades in splendor. First, up 5th Avenue, and then back down. Like Father, like Daughter is Judy Schultz, As seen by the sign on her office door, Miss Probation Officer her official title, With a room in the Court House on the 13th floor. Although Bob played the part. Of a principal in our play. He's now our local druggist, Schumann's Pharmacy is here to stay. Taking notes, typing, and working late. Brings money galore for her family, Barbara Sims is happy in her career, While Henry takes care of young Stanley. Jim Smith is now with the Lions, A tackle who's doing just great. He made All-American four straight years. While attending Michigan State. “Number, please, says Evelyn, Her pleasant voice to all is known. Eager, alert, and friendly is she. That's Operator Sproul of Bell Telephone. Far from the earth, way up above, A man is conquering space. Dale Suppes has joined the air-force blue. He's their number-one rocket ace. Miss Sutto, take a letter . Is the boss's loud command, Shirley dashes for a nearby chair. With pad and pencil in hand. A hard-working mechanic Bob's become. Servicing autos from seven to six. As proprietor of Taylor's Service Station , There's nothing that he can't fix. Frank Thompson is now in the navy. And sailing the bounding sea, He's currently serving as captain. Of the U.S.S.Marie. Back in Birch Run is Donna Wolfe, After successfully passing the bar, As the local lawyer she now thrives. With a 50-room nouse and bright red car. The rocket snarls and shoots for space. It has reached its destination. Once more Professor Worden, Has created a world sensation. Farewell to you, Birch Run, we say. You've been loyal, honest, and kind.
