CLASS PROPHECV The Year: 1975 The Place: Chestertown, N.Y. Here we are gathered in front of the Donald Brasor University to celebrate lt s first anniversary. You might also call it a class re- union, as every member of the Class of • 5 is present. As we start our Journey of the camous the first one we meet is Mary Gilbert. She just flew in, from her record-breaking flight around the world, to be here for the reunion. Next we see Beverly Giersberg, slowly turning gray. Oh, well, that's what elementary teaching does, I gusss. Oh, yes, who's this coming? Why it's none other than Bob Flach- barth and Phyllis Hill, both teachers at the University. Bob is teaching history and Phyllis, commercial subjects. I wonder what happened to the restaurant she started. Look who’s here'. Bev Walker and John. It seems that they had to close the confectionery shop to attend the reunion. Oh, well, they'll make up for what business they lost someother time. Roger Bolton just drove in towing his newest stock car. He is heading for a race, but wanted to attend for a while. Seems that Betty is at home with the kids. Close behind him is Claire Culver, or should we say Corlew? She and Chuck are Rogers' best fans and are also on their way to the races, but they couldn't miss this opportunity to say Hi! Who are the two nurses? Well, well, Peggy Fransen and Joan Ro- den. Both the girls are nurses at Ellis Hospital in Schenectady, but thay decided to come to the reunion so Peggy drove them up. (Bet he never thought driver education would get her that far.) Here comes Neil O'Connell with a group of children behind him. He always did want to teach kindergarten. I wonder how he likes it? Make way for the Navy! It's Dude” O'Connor in his sailor suit. He liked the Navy so well that he made it his career. I won- der if he has a girl in every port! M . .. Joe Tennyson has his own television shop and he just put Bolton out of business. He is thinking of expanding and building a shop in Warrensburg. L , Chuck Roberts always did like farming so if you hear a loud noise from the North Road, pay no attention. It's Just his huge turkey farm. Incidently he is furnishing all the turkeys for the banquet at the re- union. . . Margaret Meade's love for children led her to teaching music in an orphanage. Her mind is filled with soothing voices from morning 'till Dick Tennyson just replaced Charles Wilson as President of G.E. I knew that his presidential offices in school w 3uld lead him to great he i ght. Last but not least, we come upon Helen Little. She is now a private secretary to one of the biggest doctor's in the country. She just took enough time off to come to the reunion. Now we must go inside to hear the speech being made by Donald Brasor, founder of the University. 18
