CLASS POEM By Mrs. W. H. Shaver who has known the class members for more than nine years. Now comes graduation, as it does here each May, And you pass in review before my mind’s eye. Ere you depart from old Fulton, some to go far away, I see you in second grade and on through junior high. You were fun in home-room, music, math, history. I hope you enjoyed some of those things with me. Penelope has all that occasion demands In music, or science, or history or math; In the matter of applying her brains or her hands Anyone could well follow along in her path. “Bob Carter is nice,” I’ve heard some girls say, But he’s no sissy I’m sure you are bound to agree. It’s been good to watch him grow up day by day. His good humor, his good singing appeal to me. It’s a pleasure to have such a student as Don Who is capable, likeable, can make study pay. He can join a class late and quickly “catch on”; I hope that he’ll work for true greatness some day. Arlene, the fun-loving, a sociable lass, Whose friendly activity makes projects succeed, In music, church, club programs she’s “class”— She’ll run errands or stay put to supply each need. Though Bob came to us only one short year ago He fits in right well with the group that you are. He’s wonderful help in all projects we know; He’s willing, dependable, well over par. Then there’s lovely Joann, who’s a pleasure to see With her beautiful hair, her nice eyes, and all. She has more than looks, I’m sure you’ll agree; She has humor and sense and “much on the ball.” Hal has become a “big wheel” around here; He handles his jobs in a business-like way. No doubt he has learned after most of a year. He has to be good to get results that pay. Laura, a dream girl—much more than a dream— A dependable, hard-working, lovable one, A singer, pianist, trumpet player supreme; Keeps running in high gear until the job’s done. There’s Monte, good-humored, friendly and kind— (His teasing’s well-meant, the kind we can take) He meets his bad luck with grit rare to find. His neatness and character friends for him make. Quiet Bonnie, unpretentious, sincere, Who won’t be roped into our nervous, mad whirl. Whose good looks increase with each passing year, Is liked by the younger ones, a sensible girl. We’d be lost without Tom, with his talent and fun, His pantomimes, caricatures, acting and such. Even his moodiness helps things to run Out of the humdrum. This really means much. Dolores, the quiet, the hard-working, not lazy, Has plenty of humor and good sense as well. If everyone offered as much as does she Our world would be safe, as many can tell. Bob Schwyn says what he means with his hands In shop projects or out on the basketball floor. A good sport, our respect he commands— He plays for the team, not just his own score. Sweet Betty, the last of her clan in our school, With good sense, ability, poise and ambition. The way she meets problems shows that she’s no fool; She’ll be a success, what e’er her position. Cute as a button and sharp as a tack Virginia’s appealing and capable too In music and literature she displays a knack That leaves not one doubt about what she can do. Dwight, practical-joker, yet earnest, sincere, On occasion can show innate depth and good sense. For his chance for success we need have no fear He has what it takes with no sham or pretense. Another who came with her sisters-no-brothers— Carol, bright, witty, hard-working, yet carefree; She puts herself out to do nice things for others We’re proud to have her, I’m sure you’ll agree. Many of you will be leaders, some less, others more. Here’s a hint that I offer for what it is worth; Morale comes from the top, filters down to the floor; Be your best to lead others to good on this earth. You boys are all handsome, you girls are all fair, As always you will be to others who care. God bless you and lead you, wherever you go; May you keep right on learning, for there’s so much to know.

= == = = SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Extra! Read all about it! Old village uncovered! Thus read the head- lines of the newspapers in the year 3000. The archeologists had been at work for several years, and at last they had succeeded in uncovering what had once been the town of Ai, buried under tons of earth during a violent wind and sand storm. The men found old newspapers and these were some of the things which they read: A millionaire by the name of Tom Pupos had contributed a million dol- lars to scientific research. A housewife, the former Arlene Cook, who had at one time worked in a time saving research office, had worked out a new time saving plan for all housewives. Dolores Rashley, a social worker, was doing wonders in eliminating juvenile delinquency. Turning to the society page, they saw that socialite Joann Deck, wife of millionaire Don Burton, who had made his millions by investing and manufacturing musical yo-yo’s that played light opera tunes, was giving a charity ball. Laura Huber, a concert pianist, who had just returned from a tour of Europe, was giving a concert at Carnegie Hall. Millionaire deep sea fisherman, Monte Minor, who had made his millions by owning and operating a string of bait shops, was starting a round-the-world-tour. Quadtrillionaire Bob Stoup, wealthy ditch digger, had just bought con- trolling stock in a large oil concern. Home economist, Penny Burkey, had been doing a great deal through the medium of television to lessen the work and drudgery of housewives. The dramatic world had just acclaimed a new actress by the name of Virginia Vasko. Miss Vasko had directed several hit plays before going into acting herself. New York was raving about a new Fine Arts Shop which had opened under the management of world traveler, Bonnie Poorman. Miss Poor- man had gathered many samples of art treasures in her travels. Bob Schwyn had established a huge research farm where new trends in agriculture were being tried and improved upon. Bob Carter was teaching English Literature in an Eastern college. His method of presenting his material kept his classes enthralled. As a side line he also coaches the track team. Hal Fetterman had just invented an invisible, suspended air field for inter-solar planes. Thus the beauty of the sky would not be marred. Betty Snyder was advancing in the field of child psychology. Betty’s theory was “do not spare the rod.” Children’s problems became minor under her plan. Carol Whitten was acquiring great success in her lecture tour on interior decorating. Carol had received a start in her field by decorating her own home. —Miss Stoneczek This page sponsored by: FALOR AND SHARPE SQUARE DEAL BODY SHOP DELTA FEED CO. MUTZFLD HARDWARE Delta
