Phyllis Perkins is now testing cars for durability on the speedways of the west. A famous writer. Joyce McCarty, is the author of three popular books, one of which has been made into a movie in which she plays the leading role. It's not surprising to see that Barbara Stoodley is a popular singing sensation on television. Bob Tucker is doing a very good job as owner of a chain of First National Stores in Vermont. Did you see Beverly Foster’s sign? She has a boarding house for eligible bachelors in Dog Patch! Beverly Phelan is running a Modern Romance Magazine Library after having collected them during her senior year. At least she got some use out of them! It’s interesting to know that Richard Gilman has a giant chicken farm. He's even saving work by training the hens to lay the eggs in the carton! Here is Jeff Creaser, running a club for eighteen year old girls. Are you having fun, Jeff? Gene Tofferi is next door running a taxi service for boys only. I see here where Bill O'Connor is the chief of police in a little Vermont town. The famous designer, Hedi Arlund, has just hired Lynda Tucker as a model. It’s a good thing Hedi hired Barbara Matthews as chief nurse to remove any stubborn pins! As I read farther on, I see that Deanna Woodward is now with the Air Force in Hawaii. Some people have all the luck! And last, but not least, Ray Boulais is taking life easy in Florida. He comes to Vermont in the winter just long enough to cut Christmas trees. How exciting! And now that I’ve read the news of them all, The teardrops glisten and start to fall. For there's one thing in the world I know and see, That success in life was meant to be.

Class Prophecy As I glance through the news in my Tribune today, I think of my classmates, some now far away. I can still hear the whispers of our noisy class. The shuffle of papers, the notes they passed, Telling of things they would like to become. While reading the paper, I'll tell you of some. In large print I read where Phyllis Schinoski, the first woman president, has just passed an- other farm-aid bill. It should come in handy for Bill Tyrrell who is the owner of one of the biggest and most productive farms in Vermont. It is surprising to hear of all the successful secretaries and of all the spreading industries. Harriett Gilbert is secretary to her boss, Bob Hains, who is manager of the General Electric plant in Lynn, Massachusetts. Isn't it a coincidence that Stan Berry is also the manager of a General Electric plant in his own home town? Are you having trouble with your telephone? If so, the thing to do is to call Lowell Hammond who is the owner of the Bell Telephone Company. Marion Josselyn is making her husband very happy by using all of her home economics train- ing and Lynda Charnley is enjoying her new home after waiting three years for her husband to complete his military training. George Perry has a garage of his own called Pork's Specialty Shop where he does a swell job of proving that horses are really the only means of transportation! Yes, here's Bob Dubrawski who has completed his studies in law. I can picture his sign glistening in the sun! I just ran across the name of another classmate, Marilyn Cady, who is head secretary for her husband in one of the progressive Buick Garages. We always wondered why Bill White was so studious; he is a professor of English! Well! Donna Brown is teaching Economics at a business college and Janice Sheehan is running a Baby Sitting Agency with Carol Coombs' children as her best customers! Sally Stocker is now a happily married Rhode Island teacher with her own children as her biggest problem. Barbara Whitney is also married and living in Tyson. She even owns her own drug store. Whenever you are passing through Mount Holly, don't forget to stop at Ruth Freeman's restau- rant. She is well experienced after working in the T-Room. If you have a chance, drop in at Hanover Hospital and see Beverly Ellison, the head nurse. Just a friendly visit, of course! Just think how wonderful it must be for Beverly White, better known as Doctor White in Hollywood, where she cares for patients such as Pat Boone, much to her husband's disapproval! Look! Elaine Martel is the owner of the Willington Inn in New York. Couldn't stay away, huh, Elaine? Business is picking up after Elaine hired Carmen Johnson as hostess. We even have a few people starring in sports. First, there is Warren Cole, an all star basket- ball player for the Celtics. After a great success in high, Roger Hall is coach of a soccer team and Jay Hall is coach of a basketball team with his little girl as a mascot.
