CLASS PROPHECY Motion Pictures, Inc. presents for the first time ever a narration of the President's tour. written and filmed exclusively for the class of 1975. The year is 2000. The world all lives in free unity now thanks to our U.S. President Cal Nagy. Other great contributors were Congressmen, Dan williams, Steve Lobb, Don Fedrigon, and Richard Paulus. we would also like to extend our sincere thanks to Vice-President Brad Barnes. Now that the world is taken care of, our president and vice-president are planning a trip to reminisce about old times. President Nagy and Vice-President Barnes will be leaving San Francisco by plane and their pilot will be John Barnes and co-pilot, Chuck Scott. The first stop on the agenda is in Colorado where they see Joy Hoopfer and Kandra Glinski, camping in the mountains. Leaving Colorado president Nagy and his VP decide to rent a car and travel by land now. They note their old buddy Jeff Anderson is president of Rent-A-Car business and his vice-president is Tim Weaver. Now it's time for a little entertainment. Stopping at a large night club they were pleasantly surprised to see on stage, the one and only Redman Twins. fRobin and Shawn? The next stop is Florida where they see Joni Morrison and Jeanette Roush basking in the sun. Money is getting a little tight now. A bank will be the next stop.

Kathy has taught her dog to eat when a bell rings. She is now being prosecuted because the last time the bell rang the dog ate the Avon lady. It's time to head north to Home Sweet Home. I am sure you will be amazed at the friends there. As they cross the border into Michigan, the car breaks down. The nearest house happens to be the home of Patty Bussa tPatty Sutter nowl.
