CLASS PHUPHECY 1 Lower Slobovia March, 1960 Dear Mr. Gillespie, How's the weather up there in Alaska? Re- mind you of Minnesota? Am on another assignment after attending the class reunion at the alma mater. Sorry you missed the occasion. Thought you might like to hear about some of your proteges. The latest edition of the Pine Needle arrived this morning, and reading about the great success of the ski team and the debate squad at their state tournaments really brought back memories. The up-to-now record of the basketball team has them headed for the district with excellent chances. The game I saw, while there, illustrated team spirit that means victory no matter how the score stands. Coach jessop has a fine group of boys to work with. In ten short years the old home town really has expanded. New homes have been established so rapidly that it's difficult to find the boundary line between Cloquet and Esko. I imagine Ruthy Anderson, Swanhild Erickson, Bev Olson, JoAnn Cardinal, Lou Ann Prevost and their spouses had to compromise between the city and the coun- try . The new super market certainly is attractive. Dave Carlson's dream of Bein' a good butcher came true. Remember when he was just an ap- prentice down at the Public Market? just shows that determination wins over all. I noticed Fred Carlson, Bob Sell, and Norm Pentila got together and made a terrific success with their machine, auto, and electrical appliance repair shop. What with these robots to do the labor, those fellows could just as well retire. Seems Jim johnson was really serious when he talked about opening a joint on Cloquet Avenue. The Television Ice Cream Bar and Art Gallery certainly is a much patronized establishment. It's taken time, but it was heart-warming to see it a reality. Cloquet has its own medical clinic. Mary Ann Nordman, Joan Bellingham, Barbara Raski, jean Caza, and Rosie Bodie told me they give up as much time as they can spare to help as nurses aids. Full time is impossible what with families to tie one down. The two large service agencies seem to have attracted numerous '50 graduates. JoAnn Lump- pio is head accountant at Gustafson's travel bur- eau. fReally can't comprehend the necessity for one there, but then, I should have known Gusty would find a place for her.j LaVon Shipman has found a ideal secreterial position. She has ample time to write those lengthy letters to Larry. The Navy doesn't keep him in one port for long. Had a chat with Vernon Asplund. His radio station keeps him very busy. Seems as if a lot of my old classmates have hit the air waves. That half hour of Marjorie Boquist's, The Business Women at Play really shows the trend of the women of this world. Vernon Simula with his hour and a half to advise the farmers as to favor- able crop conditions, etc., is really quite a hit with the Brookston Road 4-H club. Floyd Carlson flys 0270 up from his South Dakota ranch quite often to be guest commentator. Ah - the life of the Westerner. - Got a good laugh out of Ray Kemi, joel John- son, and Gerald LaBreche. I remember when they prophesied a life of no particular line of emplo - ment. The humorous part is they've done exactlly as they intended-nothing. However, Ray Ever- son took the tracks toward success in a big way and Leo Kujawa is snapping up the moola too. Ray is no longer simply a R. R. engineer, but is up there engineering the entire Northern Pacific Net- work. Leo is working his way toward a Master's Degree in political science by spending his spare time as a Hollywood camera man. Even good old Sid Erickson is a prosperous business man. He's been on unemployment compensation for the past three years. That's what he's been working on. Had a talk with Executive Secretary of the Foreign Trade Investigation Council, Bob jubie. His diplomatic expeditions sounded fascinating. Bill Drechsler and Lois Hebert have seen a good bit of the work, too. When they paid visits to Uncle Sam after graduation they signed long- term contracts. Education was the goal of a lot of my class- mates and six, of those fourteen that were setting out to teach the future generations, came through. Donna Czock and Dids Pellerin are still together -elementary teachers. Barbara Millen and Mar- lene Manty are in the same field. Bill Jacobson and Tom Sogn are educators of the nations young- er set, too. The cousins went into medicine. Joanne Kuitu holds the top position at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester fphyciatric wardj and Chubby has his own veterinary hospital in the home town. You'll love this. Lorraine Kemi wasn't kidding when she told us that she was going to be a private secretary and marry her rich boss. She's done exactly that-three times! I flew with her to New York City. Pretty neat Cessna, hubby No. III has got there. Met stewardess Helen Lind on the journey over the Atlantic. She told me Bev Evans is under contract to decorate fthe interiorsj of the new ocean clippers. Sue Churchill is handling the business angle. Gad, these career women. Oh, nearly forgot. Galen Krohn is still the bachelor he said he'd be. However, he had a bit of an accident on his trip home, via the Bum's Express. Seems he fell, fand not off one of the boxcarsj. He caught sight of her during a three minute stop somewhere between Anahime and Kokkamonga. Wish you could have seen the kids. It was swell to be with them all again. What's done is done, and every one is glad of it, was the general attitude-guess all of us are happy. Before I close, I wish to congratulate you. That five pound brook-trout of yours really looked magnificent in the school's trophy. case. You're quite the fisher, man. Until the next reunion, Sincerely, Betti
