I look into my crystal ball And see the Seniors, one and all. Since what I see so amazes me | I shall repeat it all to thee. First comes the president of the U. S. The Great Donferd Berg, ah yes! He was president in our school days And has helped his country in many ways. Then little Bobby B. who has lots of ambition, Superintendent of Dalton with all its traditions. He sits in the office all the day long And in his heart he's singing a song. She calls loud so all can hear-- Going, Going, Gone--Sold. She's great at it, I have been told. Myrtle Brillhart's our auctioneer, : Mary Lou's a singer with a big name band; She makes folks happy all over the land. When she raises up her voice with If I Love You-- | Like I Do The dreams within your heart are likely to come true. Anne's a dietician who passes out advice To many, many people who think she's mighty nice. So if you need a menu, -just ask her for a plan; And she is sure to help you, you!1l1 find she . really can, Richard Berg is a lawyer who has for his aim The helping of others, and not quest for fame. He helps folks to write their wills and their deeds, A competent lawyer, who fills many needs. Toots, a blonde bombshell of Dalton High Who's always singing I'll Get By . She's marrieG to Graber and it's understood They've started a store in this neighborhood. Then Dot Hazel, a lady detective Who with her work is quite effective. ; Crooks better move fast when she's on their trail Or they'll end up by being in jail. } Next comes Fiscus who's risen to fame; . His name is repested again and again. : He is the coach of Ohio State, And the players say that he is great. Years pass, television is in style We see Mary Smith with a friendly smile. She's an announcer on the air. We all knew that she'd get there. A bulletin! A- concert is near, It's band leader Chase with his buckineers. He gives the siznal and they begin to pley-- When he takes his bow, he seems very gay. Judy now wears a white cap on her head; Her work is with patients who spend time in bed. She walks through the halls with her thoughts of the day, | And smiles at the doctor as she goes on her way. Julia and Cub are a happy pair Vho love each other and all troubles share. They have a secret known to all; Some day the preacher will get a call. i There's a new postman in our town, His name is Doyle and he gets around, He delivers the mail--packages, too. His friends really number quite a few. Page 13 Class Berophery Hinderer has quite a time with her dates Everyone knows that she really rates. She goes at seven and comes in at one, Her nights are filled with lots of fun. Jiggs is working in his father's dairy, He's employed Jeannette as his secretary. He's a light-hearted, care-free lad And Jenny says, He really isn't bad. It 1s 1955, and Arleen is over seas Where she's teaching little natives how to use their ABC's, She helps them, too, to read and sing And live for Christ, their Lord and King. Clifford is a reporter after a scoop, He gathers his news going 'round in a coupe. So when you read your paper tonight You'll probably see what he chooses to write. It's 1960, and to preserve peace We call for Carl Graber, the chief of police. A man who's work is respected by all ; And who's always ready for an emergency call. A lovely dancer now appears, All talking stops as she draws near. It's Janet Blosser, whose pretty face Is accented by her charm and grace. Herby Nolt is our playboy Who is bashful and very coy. He is well liked by all his chums, And all day long he sings and hums. We have in our class a jitterbug fan, His name is Jim Gerber, and he's quite a man. He resembles Fred Astaire, that Hollywood star And so we predict that he will go far. David Amstutz loves to sing Ballads, hymns, or anything. He says that he'll not join the Met, His favorite is a men's quartet. Elsie M. works in a greenhouse Making corsages for hair or blouse. She loves flowers as we can see And always with them loves to be. Kenny K. is a great Geman. Bach kiddie loves to be his fan, To turn the dial and hear him say, Remember kids, crime doesn't pay. A politician is Betty Ruth, Full of ambition, goodness and truth. She sticks to her job during moments of stress And that is the reason she's been a success. Robert Romey's a pilot on a B-29. He says that flying is really fine. When he starts the motor, and flies into the air On this earth he seems to have never a care, It's 1970, Marie Kamp wrote a play. Advertisers say that it's coming this way. Back in '46 she loved to write, Everyone said that she was bright. James Streb wakes a hit with his horn And many medals he has worn. We all know that he is tops And we hope he never stops. Con'd.on page £9
