Page 16 CL SS PRUPHECY As I walk down the beautiful streets of Geneva, whose population has grown to 20 million in the last 10 years, whom should I see but Darrell Burgess, the famous movie star. Hi Darrell, where are all the girls who pursue you so intently? Oh! I finally gave them the slip when I came out of Nevil's Blue Room. Did you know that it was owned by Gerald and Geraldine Nevil, our old school chums'? Yes, and did you hear Helen Morningstar, their beautiful, exotic entertainer, and Laura Billington, that glamorous song bird. Let's go over to Bernadine's Emporium and have a piece of Dwight Dailey's special triple crab apple pie. He has become famous all over the world for itg Bernadine Brunner bought the patent on the recipe. She's made millions on her chain of drugstoresf' Say, Herb, there's Kate Veach. Hasn't her figure brought her fame? She's just been voted Miss America of l95l. HLook, Darrell, there's Mrs. Roscoe Purdy, the former Evelyn Snow, buying her six little redheads tickets for the Mathys' circus that is coming to town next week. Raymon Mathys has just returned from doing a command performance for the Queen of England. He has just signed Jo Nelson as fat lady. Jo outweighed her opponent by 31!4 ounces. Another act signed lately is a troupe of trapeze artists, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Farlow and their famous four-year old son Bruce, Jr. Mrs. Farlow is the former Gloria Lybargerf' t'Hello boys. Remember me? Well, If it isn't Dorothy tFarlowJ Amstutz. I heard you play at Carnegie Hall. That new symphony you wrote is enchanting. Thank you boys. Next week, Bob Meyer, King of the Limberlost, is going to play some orchestral numbers from a composition written by Allen Zurcher, the famous composer. Bye, Bye boys. t'Bye Dorothy. 'Whadda ya know Herb? I took Darrell Jr. to school the other day and as I walked up the steps I met Roger Coon, the Dean of Geneva Judge Haines High School. The school was named for Lee because he financed the three billion dollar project. Those boys sure have become wealthy, haven't they? I should say so, Darrell, but that poor Tom Weaver never gets a break. He invested all his money in Texas oil wells and thought it would pay off. They thought they had struck a rich vein, and they did-a rich Vein of water. 'tMy that is too bad, Herb, but Tom's a go-getter. He won't stay down long. Say, how's your wife, Herb? 'tOh! she's okay. She went down to Rita's Cciffure Salon to get her hair dressed. I surely wished Rita had never opened the place, cause Harlene goes down every week to get the latest gossip and awful hair do's. She came home last week with a tale about Darlene Moser's husband being commissioned a five star General in the Air Force. Some say they will soon be living in the White House, but I don't know cause Secretary of State, Don Call, has his eye on that position, too. Well, I had better go now and pick up the boss at Ritz-1's. So long, Darrell, and keep away from those husband hunting glamour gals. O, K, Herb, l'll see you in the funny papers. I always read 'Herb's Family'.

These are the people Who make up our class: Now I'll give you a peek ' At each lad and lass First comes Allen Zurcher, they call him ears, We wonder if he remembers all that he hears. Around all the girls he is never shy 'Cause each one he meets he just can't pass by. Oh! Tom Weaver can he run! Everyone knows he's lots of fun. He has blue eyes and light brown curls, And is pursued by lots of girls. Gerald Nevil has light hairg He's a fellow who always plays fair. He's very healthy and energetic toot He has a personality that helps carry him thru. Rita Robinson has short curls of brown: Everyone knows she's the sweetest in town. She is always running down the hall As after her, the teachers loudly call. Laura Billington, our friend indeed, Everyone's certain she's bound to succeed. Driving a car is her ambition, But she'll do better cookin' in the kitchen, Geraldine Nevil is awfully niceg Her smile can melt a cake of ice. We all think she's so sunny and bright? lt's impossible for her and Cap to fight. Roger Coon, sly as a fox, Can't argue his way out of We all agree he has light Along with this title No a box. hair Brains to Spare. Here comes Boy Meyers, Hip, Hip, Hurrah! No time for work but lots for play. His life as a millionaire is just mediocre, He sits and clips coupons and calls up his broker. Page IS CLASS PUEM Raymon Mathys, Heavy for short, The things he says will make you snort. A Ford's the best, he always declares, And all the time stuffing with eclairs. Jo Nelson lives on a farm: Look!! at the muscles in her arm. Don't fight with her or you'll get hurt, 'Cause she'll rub your nose right in the dirt. There's romance in the air as we walk down the street. It's Herb and Harlene exercising their feet: Headed for the preacher they seem to be. The reason why C'?l just wait and see. Dorothy Farlow, so sweet and shy, Always gets mail from that Amstutz guy- We predict a future of great successg On the wave of fame, she'll ride the crest. Darlene Moser is known by all: Not hard to be seen, although she's small. She seems to be awfully nice, When she got married we all threw rice. My, My, My, here's Kate Veachg We all think she is a peach. A telephone operator she longs to be, And to live on an estate in Tennessee. Gloria Lybarger, our artist friend. Always paints so the colors blend. A long way in life we predict she'll go, And never end up in a vaudeville show. Here's Lee S. Haines, so muscular and strong, On a farm he seems to belong. He hangs onto a basketball, we are told, But we're sure it's Susie heid rather hold. Bernadine Brunner, this sweet little lass Is almost the shortest in our class. She's been voted Miss Giggles of the year, So come all of you, let's give her a cheer. Here's Evelyn Snow, we call her Red, She steps in where angels fear to tread. Always dressed neatly, fit to kill, lt'll keep Purdy busy paying the bill. Bruce Farlow, with his shirt of cord Attracts more attention than a '51 Ford. Hear! Hear! What's that noise on the street? It's just the poor guy tryin' to pick up his feet. Helen Morningstar is lots of fun. No wonder! She's a senior of l51. Look at that girl sitting on the table Has a Winsome smile, carried over from the cradle. Dwight Dailey started to choke And swallowed the straw while drinkin' a coke 0. K. now, feelin' fine! He took HADACOL to make this rhyme. lt's Darrell Burgess, he's so shy. If a girl winked at him, you know he'd die. He always does his lessons C'?J exactly right 'Cause he's afraid the teachers may bite. Don Call, when the school bells chime, Always is late, never on time. To him his sideburns are an omen, Always out late he is a roamin'. We hope you like this poem, Although it's not in prose. But Gee! I'm awfully tiredg Ho, Hum! I guess I'll close.
