The Clarion 55 We Predict Crash! Bang! Get the gate open, St. Peter! They're coming in a hurry! Charles Colopy and john Lau erbaugh have just ended their earthly careers as Auto Dare Devils. The class of '55 are now all assembled in Paradise. Let's see what they've done on earth to earn their heavenly reward. Don Shackle was a barber on earth and now supervises the clipping of angels' wings. Rita Greer became President of the American Beauticians' Association and has charge of the Heavenly Hair Styles. Eva Banbury accounted for herself very well as an elementary teacher. She was a little superstitutious, though, and went around knocking on wood in the very early part of er life. Bob Beck was Knox County Soil Planner until he tried to lay out some strips on too steep a mountain. john Kucheravy was a famous violinist - You know, one of those long hairs. jay Morris owned a fleet of trucks and hauled limburger cheese for the government. We think this was illegal, though, it was kind of a smelly deal. The world's foremost baby doctor was Ann Blanchard. She gained the distinction of having delivered 5000 babies. Richard Stumbaugh made the Navy his career. He became an admiral and had a battleship named after him. . Lulu Chapman was a famous cartoonist. One of her comic strips was the Little Lulu series. One of the best stenographers in the world was Carol Spearman. She was private secretary to the President of the United States. She received an award from the American Secretaries' Association for taking dictation at the rate of 150 words per minute. Marilyn Shaffer played piano for the New York Philharmonic Orchestra and is now playing the organ for the Heavenly Choir. joe Piar took over Peter Tumbledown's farm and raised it up a little. Carole Rhodes and Hedge Jarvis were famous ballroom dancers and opened a studio to turn out professionals. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Mowery iMarie Wolfordl ran a sheep ranch. They developed a new type of sheep that grew nylon instead of wool. That was a sheep!! You've all heard of Carl Blubaugh, the great artist, haven't you? His paintings were considered better than Rembrandt's. Ruth and Barbara Sapp put the Ohio Bell Telephone Company out of business with their Sapp System. They did very well till one of them caught her finger in the plug. What a shock! Pennsylvania is considered very good country for Wolfes. Bob and Alma CButlerb did very well turning out little Wolfes. You heard of the doodle-de-boop. Joann Lepley and Norrita Colopy invented it and made a fortune manufacturing the article. Kay White was a nurses' aid until she got tired of being ordered around. Then she started a training school for nurses' aids and ordered other girls around. jimmy Colopy took over the Willow Brook Dairy Farm. His pal, and mate, Kay Mizer, developed a milker for him that .needed no washing. janet Durbin was as close to Heaven as any of us during her life. She was the head stewardess for the Pan American Airlines. Betty Durbin was greatly attracted by men in uniform. So much so that she became a cook at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. I wonder who else was at Fort Bragg. jean Durbin was lucky enough to marry into nobility. She and her Earl got along fine. jane Harlett was a registered nurse. She received the mortician's prize for contributing the most to the undertakers in one year. Rita Elksnis was a Workman for the Dean of her household-very satisfied with it too. The award for the model family of the year went to Ramona and Glen Hall and their five children in 1970. Ah! the patter of little feet! Shirley Rice hasn't joined us yet. She's reluctant to leave her earthly job as a secretary for the Drake, Drake, and Duck law firm. Could it be she has some influence on the boss? As for us, the less said the better. We had a good time on earth but - Ida, jack, and Tom Page Twenty three
