CLASS PROPHECY Here we are in the year 1976! It looks like everyone is arriving. This is the 15th annual reunion of the graduating class of H1961 . Cindy Columber, our successful president, is trying to get order. Cindy went to Washington, D. C. to become a secretary and is now the wife of a senator from California. Alan Stultz was kept away from our reunion because of difficulties with his latest rocket ship. He is one of our worst U. S. scientists. We see Carolyn King has lost her figure. I guess it's from working in a candy factory as a sampler. George Mozingo is a famous basketball personality. He now is a star of the Professional Red Heads . Bonnie Parker has a dark tan. She has just returned from India where she cap- tured her fourth elephant. Present is Ernie johnson, now a famous cornet player. He should be after play- ing for eight years in the High School Band. And there sits Linda Close. She looks a bit worn and bedraggled. Could it be from teaching the eighth grade at Columbia School? Roy McFarland, enjoying some punch, has just put his latest invention on the market. It is a gadget called a mouse trap . Sitting next to Roy is Wanda Kiser. Her boyfriend joined the navy and found a wife in Lisbon, leaving Wanda to face life as an old maid. Unable to be here is Chucky Gamble who is recovering from wrestling with a gorilla on his latest African safari. Cathy Leighty has fulfilled her dream of going into nursing. She is the head nurse at our U. S. hospital on the moon. Joe Dinsmore is now a men's hair stylest. He has fourteen female assistants. This makes Ioe a very happy man. Present is Bob Stamper, who is now working in a bean cannery. Several times he has been caught eating the beans he was supposed to be canning. We are honored to have among us Katrinka Ketter, the first woman President . Already she completly changed the constitution. The country is on the verge of a complete breakdown. Van Payne, the world's saddest clown is present. But Kenny Conant is on his way to the moon as the pilot of a Catalina rocket. Having had seven failures, we wish him the best of luck this time. Cheryl Chalfant won an academy award this spring for her fine performance as the wolf in Little Red Riding Hood . Chuck Fulton is now working in a paper mill. He says the paper the manufacture is excellent for paper airplanes. Unable to be here is Terry Elbin. He is a mathematican now. Presently he is working on the problem 2 + 2 +4. There stands Beverly Wagner, famous for her red hair. She has just opened an- other Red Head motel at the South Pole. Larry Cordray is now working in a gun factory. He tests the guns to see if they work properly. Already four of his co-workers are wounded. Leslie Peck, present, is getting up in the stockmarket. He owns 1X2 share of stock With us again is Bernice Bennett, a very capable secretary. Her fingers are a little stiff tonight. She just won the state speed typing championship. Present is Linda Willams who has been training hyhenes to copy her laugh. Arnold Gillespie is busy at his job. He is one of the world's greatest flagpole sitters. Cheryl Kleiner and her husband are planning to form their own baseball team. They just had their ninth son last month. In case you noticed that three foot white mouse tied out front, it's Keith Coffing's latest pet. fIsn't that a little ridiculous, Keith?J julia Anderson has finally arrived. She is a happy farm wife milking twenty-eight cows morning and night. Last but not least, we see Rockie Wilguess. He is a famous watchmaker in Switz- erland. He has torn thousands of watches apart and none of them are working yet!
