Class Prophecy On the afternoon of August 20, 1960, Dick Versch started out from New York on his way to a class reunion in Bird'City, Kansas. He had got a letter about a week before from Victor Andersen in Minneapolis, Minnesota that there was to be a reunion and asking h1m if he would stop in Minneapolis to pick Victor up and take him along in his new jet propelled airplane Dick Versch had started a very good bubble gum factory and his factory was running all the others out of business Victor Andersen was the History Professor at the U of Minnesota On the appointed day D1ck Versch landed in Minneapolis and picked up Victor They continued on there way to Bird City when they got thele they saw that there must be a new airport there and when they landed they found out that it was run by our good friend LeRoy Welch There had been much talk about building an airport there Nothing had been done tlll LeRoy star ted at it and then he got the airport bullt in a short time LeRoy told us that they now had a taxi servlce in town and that he would call one for us to take us tonthe hotel when the cab got there it was run by none other than our classmate Leo Loop I don't know if his Bookkeeping is very helpful at this job but Mr Hetzler could find somethlng that he could use We then went up to the now mo dern hotel in town It was run bf none other than Charlene Witham who had remained an old maid and I might say had become qulte rich at that She had built an entire new hotel and put lnto it all the modern conveniences that could be desired After we had reglstered and paid our bill, we looked around for someone to carry up our bags We were really surprised when Melvin Johnson came to carry our bags I wonder if Melvin really couldn't get any other Job if he is still trying to get Charlene and all her money The reunion is to be held up at the hlgh school the next night 8 P M We have all that day to look around so we ask Charlene there is any place 1n town th t we might be interested ln and she points out sev ral places of interest that we mlght like call for a taxi and declde to go to the Bob Kehlbeck ranch Wh1Ch is north of town We go out there but much to our dismay he is not It home but is out gnvestlgatlng one of his many herds of cattle and gettlng them ready to ship to market we head back to town knowing that we will see h1m tonight We had been informed that Bill Burr was livi g on hi father's farm So on our way back we drop in to see h1m U o do you think met us at th door but Donna H who used to live over in PcDonald By the looks of hi farm he seems to be doing okay for himself when we get back to town, we are greeted by Royce Johnson and lis wlfe Jerry Banzet They Just arrived from California, where Royce is a Lawyer and a quite suc cessful one at ttat and Jerry is stlll trying to make a llvlng for the r st of the family in the movies I should thlnk that Royce would be able to make a llvirg for both of them but then he proba bly spends all he earns and Jerry has to earn enough money to rear their family By the way they had to come by car instead of by air because of the heavy air traffic Their family consists of two boys and one girl As we go for supper in the Bird City Lunch Room we see that .
