1 Class Prophecy 1960-- The impossible has happened, Mars has been landed upon. It Beems that it was reached by a famous scientist, Einstein Strand, Gee,I wonder if he is related to Dale Strand? What was that? It is Dale? You say he changed his name to Einstein? Well. it is a small world isn't it? Yes, and by the looks of things, it's getting smaller, Everybody is oving to Mars. All the properous young people are ascending to this place of unknown opportunities. Thisold world is getting pretty dull for me too, so, I guess I'll wander over to the Rocket Port and see if I can buy a ticket to Mars. 3 Well here I am. My, the ship is crowded today. Look over there, if it isn't Charlene and Herbert Thompson and the little Thomps. They are immigrating to Lolly Pop Ridge, | Oh, we!r e on our way. This pilot must be very skillful, They say Wcuriosity killed the cat , but I must find out who he is. Here is a small hole, maybe I can see through to the pilots seat. No it can't be- but it is = Dick Mlsna. The co-pilot is my old friend commonly known as Darrald Hansan. | What was that noise?!! Is something going wrong with the ship? There 1 1s again = oh = it's my stomach. I guess I'd better have some lunch Now where is the dining room? I'll ask that little hostess. My this food sure is good. I sure was surprised to see that Harriet Schendel was the nostess. She said that Jerry Dwyer was the head hostess of the Rocket, She also said that the chef was Trygve Flesvig. He certainly knows how to make lefse and coffee, Here comes an orchestra on the platform. It says on the program mat it is directed by the great concert pianist, Anita De! frederick. it is called Nita and her Racketeers. And there is Dorothy Mydland standing in the spot light. She is called the Queen of Soprano's This trip is proving to be more interesting all the time, I think I'll just wander around and see what I can see. Imagine being served by old friends. It is too bad though, that Marlene Hanson and Jeanette Jacobson have to work after they are married. They say though, that Jeanette has a part time job singing Hill Billy songs over radio stat- Lon XYZ in Mars. Listen, it sounds as if someone is shouting. Oh, dear the owner of the Rocket is bawling out two crew members. Maybe I car. peek through this keyhole and see if I know them. That voice does sound familiar, way it's Richard Erickson and his crew members are Ernie Schmitz and [Donald Kennedy] I wonder what the trouble is | Maybe it will be written in the Rocket Daily Paper. Here is a news stand. Seeing we're old friends maybe she'll give me one for nothing. ۱ Bernice told me that this paper was edited by Ruth Lee, Mary Wavra is assistant editor. Guess times really don't change to much, [ap they? Well, I may as well read it and see what's doing on. Let's see- ¡Let's open our eyes and take a peek. You read more gossip in a min- lie than vou can learn in a week. l Let's see, the headline says that two more pässenders have been sent to the dead-room . Better read on. These passengers received kinks in their necks from looking through Einsteen Strand's tele- Scope, They went to Chiropractor Ingeldsen, assisted by, Medical Tech- nician Wais. They end up with broken necks. Such a catastroppy Ah! there is the room now-reading Get rid of your kinks by Fat and Inks . Guess I don't care to go in. I Jeepers, look at all the doors in the corridor. They all have things written on them. Now this one says- Expert shoe repairing by Dick Bronson. Underneath it says- Do your feet make you tired and ¡fretty? Then have your shoes made by Bronson Mannette. Here's a poster announcing a baseball game. The featured pitcher ime Ole Olson. I kd said he would become a great man some day. There 1s the refreshment room. The proprietor is Delores Pagel. Her motto is: In here you won't have to cash your checks. We're much cheaper - we!re on the Rocket's deck!

There is a chapel-Looks like there is a wedding taking place. There goes the wedding mareh- That organ sure sounds funny-why, it's not an organ, it's Elaine Dunnum and her oboe-and the minister is Ed Peterson . Isn't that a coincidence. The last I heard of Ed, he was looking for a minister! They say that Elaine plays her oboe, piano, and sings for all the weddings on the Rocket. I hear that they are having a round table discussion today. The main feature will be a lecture by Joan Weibel. This panel will be taken word by word, by the President's Private Secretary, Betty Anderson. He will use the speech for his next election campaign. It sure is warm in here. I know, I'll go swimming. I hear they have a very nice looking like guard. They say he's tall, blond and Nor- wegian. That sounds like Howard Anderson from Fish Creek, Guess I'll go over and talk to him. Howard told me that they are having an acrobate do tricks for entertainment tonight. Here is a poster advertizing him- Come right in and take a seat, See Dick Leis, what a treat, He's quick. amazing and very smart, Why, he gave the Man on the Flying Trapez a start. I know 1 11 never miss this, Where ıs everybody going? We've landed! I'm on Mars- What a beau- tiful place. And there is the President of Plants Incorporated, the famous Arne Marking. He is manufacturing parachutes to desend to a planet known as the earth. Oh-oh-oh, what is happening! What are they putting on me? I'm falling-down-down-boom! Where am I? This looks like Cashton; it is Cashton! There's Paul's- I know now, I was just used for the experi- ment of Einstien Strand- to test the Marking Parachute. Oh well, I'm really glad I'm back. (CL History Four years ago the class of 1950 made its entrance into Cashton High School as Freshmen, thirty-eight strong. However, it was not long till our green actions faded to such an extent that we were no longer felt conspicuous. Our first important event was being initiated by the ‘Sophomores. Every group should be organized and our first class meeting was for this purpose. Our president, Anita Frederick, lead us sucess= fully through our Freshmen year. Our class members took part in many extra circular activities. in our Sophomore year our membership diminished to twenty-nine students. This year we were guided by our able president, Elaine Dunnum, Many of us participated in Band, Chorus, Forensics, Baseball, and Basketball. Our Junior year was filled with important happenings. We edited our high school paper. We presented the play M'Liss under the direc- tion of Mrs. Seri, Richard Erickson lead us sucessfully through this year. | Richard Erickson reigned as King and Ruth Ann Lee as Queen at our Junior prom. The theme was Stardust. To complete our Junior year we honored the Seniors at our Junior-Senior banquet. As seniors we are trying our best to fullfill our duties editing the Annual, and producing a good play, besides taking part in such outside activities as band, chorus, forensices, Library Club, F.H.A. and F.F.A. The president, Dale Strand has guided us through this year, in leaving,we take with us our much needed knowledge and pleasant memories,
