class PROPHECY It Is 1960, and we have all assembled in front of the new high school of Unit District 3. By rocket-ship we will visit the class of '49. Snap on your goggles, fasten your safety belts, and we'll be off. As we leave Clayton, we fly over the farm of Rosemary and Jim Moore. Below we see Rosemary feeding her Poland China pigs while Jim tells her how. As we venture south, we pass the 13-room ranch home of Mary Benson and Earl Lierly. Earl farms while Mary teaches piano to her triplets. (Boys of course!) Nearing Springfield we see Junior Walton driving the State Road Truck. Of course he's the State Road Commissioner. (Like father, like son.) Leaving Springfield we go to old St. Louie. There we see Johnnie Barrigar pitching for the St. Louis Cardinals, also his cute wife and BLACK HAIRED SON. Our next journey we visited Iowa, the good old corn belt, and there we saw Marion Marsh coaching basketball with one hand and pitching hay with his other. We visited the multimillionare, Berniece Davis, in Sunny California, who is now president of the Davis Telephone Company. While there, we went over to Hollywood and saw young and handsome motion picture producer, James W, Graham, who has employed Roselee Shepherd as his secretary. He is also part-time admiral on the Queen Mary. While in Rome we ran onto Mrs. Stevens, spending her vacation visiting the places she has been teaching about. She speaks excellent Latin. She told us Mr. Scott has retired from teaching and has a nice farm near Carthage and for a hobby, he is raising hamsters. We found Surgeon Mary Margaret Coggeshall at Barnes Hospital preparing for an operation upon Dick Clark, who has been seriously bitten by the Love Bug. While in New York, we had a nice back-stage talk with Bob March, a concert pianist. He is playing with the New York Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra. We saw Glenn Buss running a dairy farm in Holland equipped with atom milkers, which inventor David Campbell perfected. We found out that Mr. Skouby is farm advisor now and does a good job at it. Continuing on our journey, we went to Champaign and watched ant'exciting basketball game. Guess who the winning teams' coach was—none other then Coach Raymond J. Ross!!! We wanted to go to a good stage play on our excursion, so we went to Chicago to see John's First Wife , starring none other than Johnny Jefferson and just by a coincidence Betty had produced it. Stopping at Pana, Illinois, we visited Miss Rust, who is now teaching music in a girls' school. (And kids she's still single.) Do we really see Marilyn Leenerts taking dictation from the President of the United States? Goodness sakes, she's his personal secretary. In Panama Canal we get a glimpse of Lavoie Ackelson swabbin' decks with hubby Gerald Bowman as captain of the vessel. Well! Could it be—yes it is. There's Bob Artis as a barker at the sideshow on Coney Island. We stopped in Honolulu and talked to Duane Kestner, navy uniform and all, dancing the samba in one of the city's largest nightclubs. Duane told us that Harry Pratt, who is in the Navy had decided that After his salt-water days he was going to settle down and raise a family to keep the Navy supplied. Our last journey was at the Coffee Shop on Highway 24 to see Glen Vollbracht. We had quite a surprise because the Coffee Shop is now a combination radio store and night club named the Tiny Twitit . Our rocket-ship has lost all of its evergy so we will have to put it away till next; year. am-jKitm mt-rmm.a '»'vssfr

S We, the Seniors, bequeath to Mr. Scott a strong will power to cope with any situations that may arise with the Seniors next year. We, the Seniors, bequeath to Mr. Clapper everything that we had to dp with the annual and all our carefree ways when work was to be done. We, the Seniors, leave to Mrs Jefferson all the good grades and good times in English and play practice in hopes she will be as sweet to the Seniors next year as she was to us. We, the Seniors, leave to Mr. Ross our loyalty in standing by him in the hour of need, despite all the trouble we may have caused him. We, the Seniors, leave Mrs Evans our appreciation for the wonderful cooking aromas that drifted up to the study hall, when we were all starved. We, the Seniors, leave to Mrs Stevens the Latin language in hopes that next year the Latin class will speak fluently. We, the Seniors, leave to Miss Rust all our musical talent especially in girls' chorus. We, the Seniors, leave to the Juniors all our dignified and quiet ways. Maybe when they are Seniors they will be just as poised as we were. We, the Seniors, leave to the Sophomores our studious actions in the study hall, because we know they are always being called down. We, the Seniors, leave to the Freshmen our bold and daring way in hopes that when they are Seniors they will not be so shy. I, Harry Pratt, bequeath my excellent shooting ability in basketball to Frederick Ball and may he make as good a record as I did. I, Bob Artis, bequeath my ability to sleep in the study hall and classes and get away with it, to Bobbie Breneman, who also has a goofl start. I, David Campbell, bequeath to David Knight my names and innocence. He may need them when he goes to the office to get excuses. I, Duane Kestner, bequeath to Clarence Stevens my gift of gab.

We, Marion Marsh and Bob March, bequeath to Bobbie Breneman some of our height and especially our singing abilities. We know that he already has a good start by singing at the Junior Class Play. I, Berniece Davis, bequeath my good nature and sweet ways to Frances Coggeshall and may she have success in her Senior year. I, Margaret Coggeshall, bequeath to Alberta VonHolt my ability to get along without men. She shouldn't feel so bad that Dorothy has beaten her time. I, Glen Vollbracht, bequeath to Ronald Brlcker my success with the electric bell and when he is a Senior, he should pay more attention to his studies and not to the National Guard. I, Johnny Barrigar, bequeath to Frederick Ball my long and curly locks. He needs something to attract the women. I, Jim Graham, bequeath my quiet ways to Wilbur Steinkuhler. I, Junior Walton, bequeath to Clarence Stevens my devilish ways. I, Dick Clark, bequeath to David Knight my techniques with the women. I, Lavoie Ackelson, bequeath to Minniar Kindhart my carefree ways and ability to get along with men.

In witness whereof, we, the class of 1914-9, have hereunto set our hand and seal this twenty-seventh day of May, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and forty-nine.
