CLASS PROPHECY (Continued) HAROLD GUINN has made the grade, he has been elected President--President of the National Liars Club. Last year he completed his fifth consecutive year as president. I always say, It pays to do what comes naturally. LEONA SANFORD has become a well-known author, it says here she has almost put Ernest Hemingway out of business. I can remember her first book, How To Chew Gum With Braces On. She has gone a long way since then, her latest is How To Chew Gum With False Teeth. Well, that’s all for Who's Who. I guess it’s about time I looked in the Wall Street Journal. It says here RUSSELL VIOLETT, Oil Tycoon, has struck it again. He has finally made his ten million dollars. He says he has finally made enough money so he and DELORES CRAMER can get married. 1 remember Delores when she was Russell's secretary, that was about six years ago. I guess she knows when and how to hang on to the right guy. I never could keep track of CLARENCE WILLIAMSON but the last time I heard about him he was in Las Vegas, Nevada. He owns an All-Girl Wild-West Rodeo that tours the West. Besides that he owns ten of the biggest night clubs along the Strip in Las Vegas. His old buddy FRANK JODLOWSKI is working in Clarence's famous night club, the Silver Slipper. Frank is still singing, he has had a few chances to go to Hollywood, but he turned them down so he could stick around Clarence. As predicted in the class prophecy in the annual of 1951. FAY HEIMBIGNER WOLFE is now very busy raising little hired hands on that big wheat farm that covers the lower part of Liberty County. Oh dear! It's five o'clock and time for Stanley to come home for supper. You remember STANLEY THISSELLE, my husband. Now he is head cameraman for Warner Brothers and is working on the fourth dimension for 4-D motion pictures. He has added to width, depth, and height, curves! He is bringing home another classmate, PHILL BUFFINGTON, who has been up on Pikes Peak for the last six years. This is his first vacation. Those forest rangers sure have it tough. I guess all of the class of 1954 are accounted for and as for me, ALICE THISSELLE, I'm still just a housewife. We have our dozen children now, so I'm busy enough.

Well, here It is the end of May, 1964. It has been ten years since the Class of 1954 has been together. The other day I started checking up to see what they have been doing. I received a letter from ROSE CUSHING last week. She had just had a painting hung in the Hall of Shame. Rose said that while she was on a tour of the world last summer, she saw the former CAROL EVELAND, the present Mrs. Pat Cameron. Carol had been elected Mrs. Potato of Wisconsin. I always warned her she would begin to look like a potato if she kept on eating so many of them. While Rose was on her tour she stopped at Hawaii for a while. While there she came upon a former classmate, KAY KOLSTAD, Gonzales, O'Conner, Shis Huang Ti, Malenkov, Kamehameha. Kay, after being married four times, has started on her fifth marriage. Her present husband is the rich owner of a cattle ranch. Let's hope that she doesn't get married any more or her sons and daughters will be at war with one another if there is another world conflict. Well, so much for Rose’s letter, now let's see if Who's Who in America has anything about some of my former classmates. Oh yes, GERALD ANDERSON has developed a hydrogen power plant, it is 'going to be used few peaceful purposes only. Gerald was always the Einstein of our class. It says here that he won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1962. Hurrah for Gerald, he is the first scientist to develop some- thing connected with hydrogen that won't be dropped in the form of a bomb when your back is turned. While in Alaska, Rose looked up SHARLENE LEIGHTON. Sharlene is married to Major Ronald Hanson. They had just left Virginia where Ronald was formerly stationed. Ronald is now in command of the post at Juneau, Alaska. Sharlene is expecting those Russians to come over any day now. RAY EVANS, our poetic classmate, published seven volumes of poetry. He is now living in England. I guess people over here didn't appreciate his poetry enough, but anyway he was chosen - Poet Laureate in 1962 by Queen Elizabeth. MARY JEAN GREINER has been an assistant to Professor Proton, for the past five years. She has derived a new food formula that will allow one to go without food for a month--guaranteed not to cause upset stomach, or ulcers. It doesn't say whether it's fattening or not. Oh well, time will tell.

“rtytetaiCf September 9. 1951, was a big day in the lives of twenty students. Yes, it was our first day of high school. At first we wandered around like lost pedlars but it didn't take long for us to get the wheels of our tricycles turning. The head tricyclists for 51-52 were: President, Russell Violett; Vice President, Delores Cramer; Secretary, Mary Jean Greiner; Treasurer, Fay Heimbigner. Our advisor was Miss Fairchild. In September we came to our first hump which required some strenuous pedaling on our part as we wore logger boots, gunny sacks, and other ridiculous looking costumes. This day marked our initiation and after this we had smooth pedaling for the rest of the year because we were now full- Later in the year we threw our first party, a return party for the Seniors. With the coming of spring the class of 1951 was graduating and we were just com- pleting our first year of high school. We started our sophomore year in September with a total of sixteen students. The main spokes in the wheels of this year’s bike were: President, Delores Cramer; Vice President, Fay Heimbigner; Secretary-Treasurer, Carol Eveland; and our advisor was Mr. Ventsch. In the lost and found department we had Vernon Swarens, Willie Mosburger, Evelyn Stores, and Leona Sanford, lost. We didn't find this year too exciting but we had plenty of work to keep us busy and spring found us glad to be having another vacation. As the second week of September rolled around we, as juniors, were found learning to drive our newly remodeled hotrods. We finally got in gear and started out on the big race which was led by: Pres- ident, Gerald Anderson; Vice President, Russell Violett; Secretary-Treasurer. Carol Eveland; and Class Advisor. Miss Childs. We gained four new hotrodders who were Clarence Williamson. Harold Guinn, and Lyle Crawford. Coming back this year was Leona Sanford. We lost Stanley Thisselle, Ruth Heimbigner. and Douglas Erickson. fledged students of CHS.
