he's been promoted recently. Judy Hansen is doing secretarial work at the Idelwald Airport, waiting 'til she's earned enough money for a one-way ticket to France. And now a courtroom scene. Picture a stern, yet kindly judge, Your honor, William Clowes, who instructs the jury on its charges after lawyer Harold Bisbee has given his summation. The 19'71 International Business Woman of the Year is Miss Judy Ann John- son. Ithink, back in '61, we all knew she would go a long way in the business world. I'm sure you remember that lead cornet in the high school bandg James little boy blew McGowan is now the most famous orchestra leader and jazz soloist in all France. Diane McCurry asked me to paint this sign for her: 'REPAIRS OF ALL KINDS. Remember all the trouble she used to have with transmissions lock- ing, brakes shoes bending, and so on? STUPKA'S SPECIALLY SPEEDY TAXI SERVICE is another sign I've been asked to paint. You know Wayne had plenty of training for this early in life, but now he drives a company car. Now on the sports' team in the Olympics, Sandy Kraft seems to always be practicing. Sandy, must you dribble that cotton-pickin' ball in the bathtub. Alan Henriksen is definitely aiding mankind, and in a most practical way. His electronic brain can actually correctly predict the winner of any horse race. Now here's a painting of a nursery rhyme with a kind of a twist. There's Maryg she's crying 'cause her little lamb just went to the pasture. Mary Hunt- ley shouldn't sit and cry all day, should she? I'm French, this picture is French, and my subject is Frenchg Judy French, that is. lncidently she recently has taken up house-keeping for a certain young man. Actually, anyone can see that now she certainly isn't Frenchg instead she's--that would be telling. Because France is France, and French girls are French, I paint tall, dark, and handsome Tony Anderson pursuring his main objectives with the aid of his baritone horn, fine singing voice, and his extremely fast feet. Such people always succeed, and in France. I've been frantically searching for a golden gilt frame for my nest painting, which is to be placed in the Boone Valley Art Museum soon. It's a portrait of a young lady, our Queen of Queens. She's wearing deep red velvet, a crown of diamonds, and jewels such as have never dazzled anyone's eyes. You can probably guess easily that this most beautiful image is of--Yes--Mademoiselle Ruby Huntley. Back in '61 maybe Red fLarryj Anderson will remember repeating these words: Friends, Romans and countrymen, lend me your ears. Look who's graduating after ALL these years. Seniors of '61, this is you--10 years hence. Stark reality, wasn't it? Hope you could stand it.

I'm a French artist, an artist of the future. and so I'm going to visualize paintings depicting each of the seniors ten years from now. As you might have guessed Monsieur Dean Neuburger still has farming in his blood, because I find him as a professor, teaching animal husbandry at the Sorbonne here. And, in his spare time, you can find him on the 'field of battle, the athletic field--as the vivacious head cheerleader for the University. Next, my focal point is on Merle Anderson, in the middle of a baseball field Now known as Merle Big League' Anderson, he has just signed with the New York Yankees for the sniffling amount of 385, OOO for his first year. I can picture Jerry Tokheim as Master of Ceremonies of the popular French surgical television program, BLOOD, working closely with his old classmate, Dr. Gordon L. Jensen, who is watched by thousands as he makes dangerous in- cisions each week. My next painting may seem a bit strange to you for I find Gloria Nerem, now a medical secretary, with her crisply laundered white uniform and short- hand pad and pencil out in the center of a very agricultural hayfield. There must be a mistake somewhere, for I always thought she was interested in the town of Hayfield and not in a field of hay. Two of the Boone Valley seniors of '61 went to an exclusive French beauty school. Mimi Uudyy Erwin and Yvette fwanday Hefty's recent display of the coiffure of the former Roberta Veldhouse was simply superb. For an evening of entertainment, the other night I went to the Theatre de Mokiere in gay Paree. The program turned out to be especially interesting and cultural because the famous Thompson girls were in the leading roles, featured as France's best and most attractive dancers of the ballet. Also in the entertainment field is found the extremely talented Penny Mc- Curryg her superb operatic voice has brought her much success. Our friend Vele Tate is now an honorable judicial officer. Things have changed a good deal--Verle is now fearlessly upholding all righteousness and is not swayed by anyone in the least. The former Janice Odland who now works as a marriage counselor in her spare time, can verify this. She is now serving a sentence for double-parking her French poodle. I see Monsieur Kitley's interests have not changed too much, for he's now President of the National Wine Brewers of France. Denny's interest in the transporting of milk changed because he insisted the open road and finally ended up in my country. Monsieur Norman Tincher has been the French Chief Excutive's private barber for several years now and is also highy recommended in the art of giving G. I. haircuts. Monsieur Hebner llves in France nowg he's a guide for American tourists. I paint him standing patiently at the customs gate, being so very polite and courteous. Remember those girls who made plans to go to A. I. B. ? Incidentally that stands for 'Actively Interested in Boys. Janet Hansen: She's been taking highly confidential and advanced training at the Geiger Banking School in Sheldon, Iowa. Bonita Engstrom has become Mr. Movick's secret service sec- retary in Washington, D. C. g and he can even affort to pay her a salary, since
