Editorial Flash! (Earlville, 111. March 1978) The 1978 Edition of Who's Who in America has recently been released. Incredible as it may seem, among the noted persons listed in the pages of this tome are the names of every member of the Class of 1958. Because of the outstanding work achieved by the members of that class, we, the editors, feel that the world should know of their accomplishments. The story of these classmates follows: FLORENCE BARBER. We are happy to congratulate Flor- ence who is now the wealthy owner of the Wagon Wheel. She started as secretary, moved up to manager and is now the exclusive owner of said property. HAZEL BARBER. We are proud to see one of the class of 1958 risen so high in Washington, D. C. Hazel is now the Secretary to the Secretary to the Secretary of Agriculture. ANN BUCKWALTER. Ann is continuing her erstwhile pro- fession of high school days. She is now the owner of a fleet of taxicabs, and as a hobby designs her own taxis. RONALD GIBSON. Ronnie has recently earned a clerical degree. He is now the advisor of the students at the Semi- nary at Cornville, 111. He is known as Reverend Ron. PATSY GOODBRED. Patsy is now the head hair-stylist in Hollywood. She has astounded the fashion world with her fantastic creations such as Saturn’s Tailspin. PEGGY GOLDMAN. Peggy has risen to fame in the liter- ary field with her expose of financial exploitations in the form of her new book The Watered Stock. ” DALE HARTMAN. Dale is internationally known for his daring rescues in his jet-propelled helicopter. He has re- cently been acclaimed for his spectacular rescue of a mad flagpole-sitting scientist. JOSEPH HEITMANN. Jay has now become a blood brother to the chief of the Maumau. He was doing missionary work when he discovered this savage, uncivilized tribe. KENNETH HOFFMAN. Ken has become a mad scientist. His latest feat has been to attempt to disprove Newton's Law of Gravity. He was the mad flagpole-sitting scientist. SHIRLEY JORNLIN. Shirley has succeeded the famous Hedda Hopper. She has taken over the great lady's column and her hats too. Shirley always did have a knack for gos- sip. PAUL MANNING. Paul has become a noted bachelor play- boy. He now resides in Anchorage, Alaska. Paul has be- come a lover of snow and an expert dog team handler - 'Bah to cars. PHYLLIS MARTIN. Phyllis has risen to fame as the World's Greatest Woman Bowler.

He has become the High Duke of the newly-formed Arabian Harem Club, the headquarters of which are in Las Vegas. DENNIS OSSOLA. Dennis has always liked to be the first to do anything, so he enlisted in the Marines immediately after graduation. Dennis has become a camouflage ex- pert, and we wonder how often he has gone A.W.O. L. without being missed. ERNESTINE RUSSELL. Ernie has become a world-famed basketball star. She is especially outstanding in her position as center for the Tuftie Trotten Five. DALE SANDERS. Dale has also risen to fame in the literary field. For the past ten years he has been in Spain compiling information for his recently completed book A History of the Spanish-Speaking People. CHRIS SANFORD. Chris is a champion rodeo rider; he always d id go for the wilder things. He specializes in the field of bulldogging. Could it be that he got his experience in the third hour P. E.

Marlys, who has always been a helpful soul, has become known as the female Dr. Salk after many years of patient laboring. ROBERT SONDGEROTH. Bob has become the editor of Mad- Humbug, a very successful magazine. In his spare time he is an enthusiastic fan of art of motorcycling. LEE STANFORD. Lee has finally attained his lifelong am- bition; he is now the Chancellor of Germany, forming his sixth Reich. He has dedicated himself to the furtherance of world peace. WAYNE STANFORD.
