.,i If- viva- . l l PROPHECY ln one section of the crystal ball, we are able to iden- tify many -of Eastern's students involved in the competitive world of sports. Ed Colucci and Deedee Russell have excell- ed as champion high jumpers, while Jackie Barry has gained renown as an Olympic swimming contender. Jim Pittinger, the Great White Hunter, and Beth Parmelee, inventor of a new family-type ski known as Tandem Parmelettes , are also familiar faces. The staff of TACHTING MAGAZINE has gained a new editor, Thomas Orem, and Wayne Bishop has returned to the minor leagues after a brief stay with the Yankees. The future also reveals former Eastern Junior High artists, such as Paul Larson, who has become a political cartoonist for the NEW YORK TIMES, and Sally Hull, a famous straight-haired cartoonist. Karen Avery has become a Guggenheim exhibitor, and Nancy Burton a set designer for a broadway show. Alan Mediate can be recognized as the first architect on the moon, while Bob Thron has re- mained on Earth to succeed as a car and engine designer in Detroit. Displaying his artistic ability, Donald Crafts has also gained importance in the business wo-rld as president of Kraft Candies Corporation. - The musical portion of our crystal ball reveals Doug Finch as the newest member of the Finch Family Singers, and Taffy Sprando as a famous opera star. Cathy Tatge has acquired -the title of honorary bell ringer in the Riverside Philharmonic Orchestra, and John Myers can be seen as a professional drummer. Anthony Rowe has followed the footsteps of Cecil B. deMille, while Paul Dale has created the first radio club on the moon. Surprisingly enough, Jon Henry has turned into a song! I The crystal ball tells us that 40 year-old Paul Menneg has married an eighteen year-old model after enjoying 'twenty years as a surf and ski bum with John Enck. Tim Shaw can be seen roaming the beaches with his bass vio- lin and internationally famous Shaw Dictionary. By gazing deeper into the crystal ball, we can depict the former inventive minds of Eastern. Donald McCormack has developed a new style of the McCormack reaper, while Richard Keyes has become a living aerial reconnaissance expert. ln lthe literary field, Debbie Howard has been awarded the 1980 Pulitzer Prize, and Lee Daniels awarded honors for the invention of a new type of poetry. The field of industrial chemistry has also advancd due to the dis- coveries of Barry Honton. Ken Kalata, the manager of Kellogg's Special K cereal factory has employed Kevin Kay to write his tele- vision commercials, Sharon Heim has founded a new cat- sup company, and Richard Steffen has distinguished himself as the inventor of Steffen StufTin , a new brand of turkey dressing. By venturing into the unexplored regions, Judy Perry has gained fame as the first Perry to reach the South Pole. l The crystal ball reveals many prophecies of the near future - Bob Oppenheimer is seen making up his ninth grade detention .hours in the school year of 1965-6o. Kent Kannenberg has become Kent Rifleberg, while Sue Jackson has changed her name to Sue Jillson-. The crystal ball also predicts that Chris Powers will make a find , and that Heddy Veith may someday learn gto appreciate her first name. Jane Common has become,Mrs. Joe De- nominator, and Bridget Kelly has gained public renovlm as the leader of the St. Patrick's Day Parade for seven successive years. Laurie Wheeler has achieved success as a Big Wheel in a Wheel Factory. Jim Hodge and John Meeker have ioined the presi- dential statf - Jim serving as U.S. ambassador to France, and John as an investigator of merchandise. Our look into the future shows Lee Markscheffel as principal of Eastern Junior High, and Laurie White as the school nurse, while Bruce Merrell has been named assistant to Miss Little. James Wason has stepped into Mr. Wason's shoes, Mary Nixon has taken over the iob of Nfr. Schumann, and Robert Hunter has replaced Mr. Schongalla as head of the moni- tors. lt is predicated that Lilian Walker will become a pe- diatrician, Beverly Hanna a public health official, and Peggy Kauffman a park commissioner in charge of keeping the wide-open spaces. By looking into the future, we can see that Sharon McKeever has gained a seat in the stock ex- change, and Robert Hall has opened a new branch of clothing stores. Diane Creamer has become a librarian with her own watch, and Beth Tracy, head librarian in the Con- gressional Congress. William Krauss, Sir Gallahadof the 'dance floor, and fortune-iteller Edward Morrell, are also familiar faces in the nation-'s capitol. E The crystal ball foresees David Shockley as a future veterinarian, and Chris Havenstein as heiress to Bob's Pet Shop. Eileen Simmons has successfully combined her ath- letic ability with her love of horses as a famous horse trainer and riding teacher. This concludes our iourney to the future, but with the aid of our crystal ball, we may someday be able to recog- nize many more of Eastern's ninth graders as leaders of the world. But for now we will return to the present and Concentrate on the events of 1964-65. 62 , 1 l , l
