Class Prophecy IMAGINE my amazement upon learning some five years after graduating from B. H. S., that Carl Wombold had invented an airplane that would allow us to go to other planets and that I was to have the honor of making the first great flight. We chose Mars as our destination and, 1 was surprised to find civilized people living there. But after a thirty year stay, I was eager to return to earth and, most of all, to Bradford. I expected to find the same small village, but no longer was it so. It had grown to a large industrial city. First of all I found Mr. and Mrs. Van Bowersox. Vanie Lloyd and his wife, Eileen were very prominent citizens in the city. I asked them to go with me in search of the other members of the Class of '28. The first place we went was to the other end of the city and here we saw Tootsie Keogh. She was Sup’t. of the Furniture factory and also Sup’t. of the Hospital in Bradford. As Eileen needed a new hat, we next went to Paris. Here we found Eldon McLaughlin, U. S. Ambassador to France. Just as soon as he finished the term as ambassador he was going to the U. S. to run for President there. We came back to the U. S. and were informed in New York that Robert Lowe Bigler was in Chicago and Editor of the College Humor. We found Frank Collier and Dale Bazill, in partnership under the firm name of The A. B. C. Toy Balloon Mfg. Co. After the death of the noted opera singer, Cyrena Van Gordon, Nola Hess had successfully made her debut into grand opera. After his graduation, Clarence Click married a girl in Cincinnati, invented a patent dishwasher and became independently rich. We found Gaynelle Thompson director of physical education at Ohio State University. Mary Wonner was at a Girls Industrial School in Delaware, Ohio, where she was teaching. She said she wouldn’t mind getting married but she was going to wait until she got a little taller. We are happy to learn that the Sink, Spitler, Rike Co. were doing good business as dealers in squirtless grapefruit. Their factory was in Sheboygan. Wisconsin. Dorothy Wolfe was very popular in New York. She was the only living woman who had long hair and oh! the proposals Dorothy had had. James Driver was at the height of his glory. He had inherited several million dollars and was now living peacefully and happily in Florida. While on a second trip to Paris we found Kenny Valentine living there. He had accepted a position with F'ridigaire C'orp. and had been sent as their representative to France. Lenore Puterbaugh was also living in Paris as a great student of Art. We found Gennard Witwer proprietor of a garage in New Harrison. He had married a sweet little girl in Russia, (Ohio). They were very opposite because she had such a terrible temper. Ruby Pierce, after graduating from High School had taken unto herself a husband. He was manager of an H. M. Store in Los Angeles, California. We found Deane Armour and Lita McLaughlin in southern Alabama playing in an orchestra there. Lita told Eileen that she was waiting for another leap year to come around so she could propose to Deane. We found Dorothea Fansher around in the small towns of Darke Co., electioneering. Dorothea with her “gift of gab” was surely telling the people. Helen Furlong was operating a beauty parlor in Havana, Cuba. Martha Smith has entered the field of religious education. Bob Moore had stepped into a position of fame and honor after Paderewski’s death. His name was honored both in the I'. S. and abroad. We found Leonard Routson employed by the Crosley Radio Corp. He was known as their baby tenor. Marguerite Seefloth and Helen Perkins were lecturers in W. C. T. U. work. Donald Shively was a first class comedian in Keith Circuit. He was known as Big Joe. On our trip to Paris we found Mary Waggoner. She had belonged to a fashionable club for the past five years. But with all her popularity over there, she was still keen about the Jameses. We found Dorothy Brunton as a governess in the home of some French nobility. While talking to William Zimmer we were surprised to find he was a prominent lawyer in New York. He suggested another trip to Mars with Artie Deeter as our honored guest. Needless to say Artie and Tip were married. So next week the Senior Class of ’28, is going to Mars. I must stop and send a telegram to the Pres, of Mars to prepare a big party for us. M. E. 26

President Secretary Treasurer Magdeline Crowell Irene Bucholtz Deloris Lyons Class Colors Class Flower Advisor Cream and Cardinal American Beauty Rose Mr. Barr Morro: “The door to Success is labeled ‘Push!’ ‘Let’s go'.” Junior Class History SEPTEMBER, 1925, found forty-six half-shv but wilful freshmen wending their way toward the large assembly, conscious of the glances and talk of the upper classmen. We soon became just as dignified, however, as the others in spite of the fact that we were considered as “just Green Freshmen.” We were allowed to organize and chose Magdalene Crowell as our president. The year was spent in getting acquainted and getting a good start in High School. We felt that we had really accomplished some of this when we found the word Sophomore on our grade cards that spring. We felt more at home the next year in the large assembly with the freshmen as underclassmen. Think forty-three of us took great joy in getting our revenge on them. We again organized and chose Bob Divelv to rule over us. It was not all study for us this year. We enjoyed our valentine party at Lillie Bausman’s home, very much. Also, our St. Patrick’s Supper at the school house. And—we all spent the evening with Edward Fink to help celebrate his sixteenth birthday. Although we were not so well represented as Freshmen in athletics, in our Sophomore year we won the class basketball championship. Last fall we took our places as Juniors with the Seniors in the other assembly. There were twenty-nine who were at the parting of ways, some taking commercial and others College preparatory course.
