Sneak Edy The stats seemed almost as sleepy as we seniors when we treked our way to the High School on the balmy April morning of the first. We were going on this venture with high hopes. and a few hours loss of sleep failed to dim our enthusiasm. With Miss Holmes and Mr. Bede, our sponsors, the adventurous group boarded the two buses for Omaha. - Breakfast had been forgottenvin our rush to reach the bus on time. Few of us were accustomed to getting up at such wee hours of the morning, so by the time we reached tWahoo everyone was wide awake and eager for food. . Next stop was Boys' Town. a spectacular place and we marveled at the expanse and beauty of this wonderful home for homeless boys. Here we visited the trade school, the huge amphitheater, and the chapel, which was indeed an inspiration. Again boarding the buses we were enroute to Omaha. Our first excursion was to the huge Swift Packing Plant. Guides divided us in two groups and the tour began. They explained to us how they process meat from the killing of animals to the chilling of the carcass. Although many of us agreed wewould never eat again, we managed to consume a good-sized meal at the Stockyard Cafeteria. At the Immaculate Kitty Clover Plant we visited spacious executive offices and were shown the entire process of making and packaging potato chips. Strictest sanitation is required so much of our view was i through plate glass. We were much impressed with the speed of the workers. At the end of our visit we were presented with a freshly packaged bag of chips. The World Herald Publishing Company was our next stop. Few of us realized the work involved before the newspaper finally reaches us. Next was a tour of KMTV after which we had about two and a half hours of free time. Some went to shows, others went shopping, while still others roamed around sight-seeing until supper time. For our evening's entertainment we attended the grand and spectacular Ice Capades. This was a first time for many of us and was a genuine thrill we will never forget. A quieter group returned to Central City feeling this had been a thoroughly enjoyable day, in spite of the flat tires which greeted us at the end of our journey.

611155 Prophecy In an International newspaper dated the year of 1985, we found these headlines. EARTH EVACUATED T0 PLUTO! TWO MAD CHEMISTRY STUDENTS ANNIHILATE THE WORLD! This outstanding newspaper is owned by the great literary critic, LIZ the whiz KNIPPENBERG. I, EDWARD R. Murrow YOST, was vacationing in China and while observing slimy silk worms, I saw Keith ROUMPF and GARY OLSEN come flying over China's Wall. Two seconds before they had been struggling with an experiment which said to stir gently 1 millileter of nitto-atomic glycerin. Not reading the directions carefully, they used a hydro-electtic generator to agitate two washtubs of the solution. Suddenly they found themselves flying over the Pacific Ocean. They spied PENNY PETERSON furiously rowing in a raft to win the world's championship 100 yard raft dash! They came to a stop in China, tight at my feet. Their dying words were, 'We not only split the atom--we split the earth. ' The last to leave the earth was LOUIE Vespucci SCHOLL. Since he didn't trust the space ship pilot, daring DARLINE JOHN, he was forced to hop to Pluto on his pogo stick. On his way he saw JACKIE PATTERSON who was filing the stars down to 4 points. She didn't approve of the 5-point plan. As he went past the Milky Way, he noticed HERCULES MALM was working as chief milk slinger for the Universal Dairy Corporation which provides milk for the Milky Way. The last blast off to Pluto included several Central City passengers. One was the great artist. JUNIOR Leonardo JOHNSON with his famous painting, THE HISTORIC REMAINS OF CCHS. To his left sat LOUISE HOLTORF knitting her massive Great Dane a pair of baby blue booties. DICK love 'em and leave 'em LARSON was manging the gravitation machine and was distracted by MARCIA BROOM who was sweeping up his misplaced bolts. There was a blinding flash and all in the ship were floating in mid air. So many heads were bumped on the ceiling that Dr. DALE NIELSON and his nurse DELORIS BRONDELL were forced to rearrange their marbles. nAnother passenger was LADONNA HUMISTON who had a great deal of difficulty with chronic spaceophenia which includes rapid rotation of the eye balls and a tabbitlike wiggling of the ears. Uponiarriving at the interplanetary customs office on Pluto, we were inspected by the examiner DENNIS the menace WAGGONER. He found that BOBBY VOLKMAN had smuggled his worm-like boa con- strictor onto Pluto. Next came mass vaccination against Pluto Walking. This was to prevent all new comers from stepping off into space. In charge of this operation was BERYL jab-'em-kwik NELSEN. The scientist who discovered this was none other than ORVAL Oppenheimer NOUZOV- SKY and his assistant BOB Bunsen BURNer. The passengers hailed an atomic Pluto-Cab. Pedalling furiously at the rear was GORDON NELSON. Before leaving, they checked the atomic reactor at a Philipps 666 station. The attendant was PHILLIP fill-er-up ANDERSON. They whizzed on into Plentral City, There KEATON um pah pah WALKER was teaching little Plutoites to play the tuba.
