PROPHEC Y We, the CLASS OF 1946, prophecy that our honorable classmates will be stepping in the following walks of life when our class once again unites May 17, 1966, for our twentieth class reunion. Verna Ellis is among the first to arrive at our picnic. She might have a few silver threads among the black, but aside from that she hasn't changed one bit. Robert Donbar just landed in his Curtis Hellicopter. He's president of the Transcontinental Airways, you know. Dear Me! Poor Donald Rodis is madly chasing his toupe. It seems that the slight breeze from Bob's airplane blew itoff. Some of our other multi-millionaire business tycoons like Al Miller or Bill Bachtel should be flying in any minute. Let's hope poor Don Rodis doesn't have another similar calamity. Doris Donahue and M. J. Baun have come from the East where they are both professors of physical education at Goucher College. Other out-of-towners include Duane Smith, leader of Smitty's Smooth- ies, and his featured drummer Buddy Texter, who broke a three month's engagement at the Waldorf Astoria to attend our reunion. Marilyn Pounders aslo broke away from her tour with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra long enough to spend a few hours with us. Let's wander over to the baseball diamond where Don Bowman is organizing a baseball game. He's the owner of the Cleveland Indians, the team that walked off with this year's World Series. Well, you might know, Where there's a baseball game there's Lois Krichbaum. She has gained a few pounds in twenty years, but she's still a slugger with a baseball bat. Carol Pifer made it to our reunion also. She has become quite a famous poetess. She won the Putitzer Prize for poetry this year. Dr. Suzanne Cobb Brown and Donna Wester have an up and coming partnership. Sue is the doctor while Donna runs a funeral parlor. Bill Datson has also made a name for himself in medicine. He is the newly appointed chief-of-staff at John Hopkins Hospital. Audrey Jackson has really kept tab on Boardman. She is having a great time teaching the third-graders at our old alma mater. Janis Carlson, Peggy Lou Egan and Becky Caldwell arrived from New York on the early morning train. Janis is head of the dress depart- ment at Saks 5th Avenue Shop while both Becky and Peggy Lou are' top-notch broadway stars. Jean Howells and Henrietta Bishop are here too. They were model secretaries in the offices of Dole and Deskin, High Class Haberdashers, before they were married a few years ago. Carol Blackwell and Dr. Edward R. Lawton are at it again. Even 4 after twenty years they can't get the question of socialized medicine settled. , A Joan Hoganson, current star of Billy Rose's . swimming acquacade, has a matinee perform- '2 X ance this afternoon, so she is unable to attend Q- q, our reunion. We also got word that Senator . lf! George Carlyle's plane has been grounded in k Pittsburgh, so the senator will be a little late l 'I i ' , I' ' for dinner. J Q Now we leave our aged colleagues to enjoy a good dinner and a reminiscing evening. See , you in twenty years, kids! ll

SENIOR PLAY I beat you! I did, did, did ! Penny Wood fPeggy Lou Egan cries as she races into the living room fencing with Chuck Harris fDonald Bowmanj. This was the opening scene of the 1946 Senior Production June Mad. Penny, a typical teen-ager, is very distant to boys until Roger Van Vleck CTed Lawtonl, a rich playboy, comes into the picture. He is visiting Mervyn Roberts CKenny Dolej, Penny's uncle. With Roger's arrival Penny becomes a woman of the world until Julie Harris CBettie Marshallj, Marvyn girl friend, comes home from college. Then Roger turns to Julie leaving Penny to Chuck and Mervyn in an uproar. Be- tween the hecklings of Milly Lou fEllen Schofieldj, the neighborhood pest, and Julie's cooing over Roger, Mervyn becomes hard to live with. Effie fMaryhelen Porterj, the maid, adds much comedy by her sloppy appearance and many complaints. Elmer fJohn Nischwitzl, the hired man and Effie's boyfriend, also draws much laughter. Dr. Wood lJohn Miller! and Mrs. Wood fNancy Pannierj are typical parents who worry over their teen-age daughter. Mr. Harris, Chuck's father, is a widower much concerened over his son but unable to get close to him. Ralph and Shirley Wentworth fDave Hanna and Mary Graffl are the f'lorist's children who come in off and on for many reasons, reasonable or otherwise. The climax is reached when Chuck goes off the cliff in his glider, and the anxiety of waiting brings everyone together for a very happy ending. Much credit goes to Mr. Bohn for his untiring efforts to make this play the success which it was. SENIOR SCHOLASTIC TEAM At 12 o'c1ock on March 9, a much bedraggled group of fifteen stu- dents staggered out of South High School with their minds completely exhausted of knowledge. The occasion was the Annual State Scholar- ship Test given for students ranking high in their classes. The group at South were from the schools in Mahoning County. The representatives from Boardman were Marion Banyar, Carol Blackwell, Mary Jane Carle, Barbara Doyle, Peggy Lou Egan, Jean Geis, Donald Inglis, Kitty Lou Leihgeber, Lois Krichbaum, Bettie Mar- shall, Virgil McGuffin, Alfred Miller, John Miller, Nancy Pannier, and Carol Pifer. Each one was responsible for his own study and could re- view according to his own needs. When the results were announced, Boardman had four in the first ten places in the county and ten out of the fifteen placed in the upper twenty-five per cent. Bettie Marshall took the honors for Boardman by ranking sixth in the upper ten. Carol Pifer was next in seventh place with Carol Blackwell and Alfred Miller coming cose behind by tying for eighth place. Lois Krichbaum, Donald Inglis, Nancy Pannier, John Miller, Jean Geis, and Mary Jane Carle received Honorable Mention in that twenty-five per cent. Being entitled to only four in this bracket, Boardman more than doubled its share and was the school having the greatest number receiving recognition. We, the Seniors, wish the best of luck to next year's team, and we hope that they will keep up the good work!
