CLASS PROPHEC Y When the members of the class of 1959 received their diplomas, they went out into the world to seek a profession. The day for our first reunion came, June 1, 1969. We were all to meet in our old home town at dear old Galatia High School. I had just seated myself in the cafeteria to review the plans for the night when Lily Fowler, the owner of the Powder-Puff cosmetic firm came. The next person to arrive was James Courtney, the manager of a large print- ing firm in St. Louis. While Lily and James were talking, lwalked over to the window and saw Charles Karnes drive up in his new Karnesbird. Charles has been working on a design that would revolutionize the automotive industry. With Charles was Albert Langley, the owner of the Dew Motor Company. Albert is backing Jerry Sutton and Herschel Paris in the race at Annapolis. They will not be able to attend tonight. After a while in walked Sal Mineo. No, it's Gary Hill and his producer Peggy Mitchell! With them was Gary's private secretary Wilma Sisney, and his three beauticians, Brenda Malone, Brenda Pulliam, and Brenda Weaver. Linda McVay was also in the group. She manages the Posy Shop that Gary bought to supply Sue with her favorite roses. Next to arrive was Eddie Whistle, Principal of the Galatia High School, and the two agriculture teachers, Ralph Gann and Bruce Nevious. Everyone was having a wonderful time laughing and talking with old friends, when the tune of the school song echoed from the gym. We hurried to the gym, and much to our surprise there was Bill Malone and his Tuny Tootets. Ruby Knight is the soloist. Leroy Parmley, a radio announcer, greeted us at the door. After a while we heard a loud noise. All ran outside in time to see a hugh plane land on the ball field. Connie Otto, a world famous debator, and James Gogue, the Italian playboy, were passengers on the plane. Keith Martin had piloted the plane to safety and Alice Mauer, the stewardess, had done much to settle the nerves of the passengers when they flew through Hurricane Hazel. After everyone had said hello, we went back into the building and found that five more of our classmates had arrived. They were Larry Jones, the basketball coach at S.I.U,, Larry Lewis and Jerry Stanley, the Daredevils in Barnman and Bailey's Circus, ,Tim Peyton, Liz Taylor's psychiatrist, and John Williams, the tester of a new space suit designed by Phillip Adams, the world famous scientist. A silent hush fell over the crowd as Kay Edwards and Pat Thompson tripped in. Theywere dressed in the latest Paris styles. They had married millionaries from South America. When John Pearson arrived in his private helicopter, we learned that he is President of the Looney Bubble Gum Company and Jerry Davis, who accompanied him on the trip, draws the cartoons for the gum wrappers. Phillip Adams, the scientist, and Noel Hankins, a reporter of the New York Times arrived last. Noel was interviewing Phillip about his discoveries in the field of air travel. They had missed their plane and had to charter a private flight from New York to be with us. We all had a grand time talking about our families, homes, friends, and careers.
