12 CLASS PROPHECY ABOARD the Marauder, shooting rapidly through the fourth dimension of time, we can lookback upon the vanishing Earth, strange as it grows smaller and uncanny, suspended in the silent blackness of the ether. Slowly turning and glowing in the reflected light, it is the A.D. 1945. Turning thepredometer and adjusting the turbulent stream of the fifth dimension, we find ourselves ten chronometers ahead in time. looking out past many nebulae and galaxies, we again see Earth. This time expanding as our space-ship rockets on toward this future world. Once past Mars, the cosmic ray is reversed and we deaccelerate toa smooth landing. Stepping through the electronic reflector, we Find ourselves in the year 1955. Marilyn Adams is now prima donna of the Met.She has the reputation of creating new operas, because no one recognizes her renditions of the old ones. Joan Carroll now operates a Chinese restaurant where curried rice is the great specialty of the house. Grace Keller is now No. 1 secretary and treasurer for the firm of Krepick, Krepick, Krepick Krepick. Grace is indispensable to the firm because no one else can decipher hershorthand or figure out her filing systems. Right now the firm is in conference, debating whether to fire her and go bankrupt or to give her a raise. Anna Murabito is well on her way toward becoming Secretary of the Treasury of the U.S. Right now she is president of the Goshen Hills National Bank. She often takes samples home at night. Edna Lane couldn’t get away from school. Don’t get us wrong; she’t not a student. However, when you lift the receiver of the telephone in any one of the rooms, it is her voice you hear. You see, Edna has taken over Miss Scott’s post. Sophie Orzechouski has combined her nursing and flying careers. She’s up in the air all the time. Even on the stormiest nights we can see Sophie roaming the sky, keeping pulses up and holding temperatures down. Charles Schubert has made headlines in the local paper this week. Schubie has just had his first total bath in ten years in that long-desired bathtub of his in order to get rid of the grime accumulated during a decade of hard labor at Wheeler’s Tire Service. Harold White now bugles for the regiment of ushers at Goshen Theatre. As it has three matinees weekly now instead of the former two,we hear Harold is pretty well blown out. Harold is responsible only to George Murch, v ho has followed in Joe Warrick’s footsteps. Joseph Nelson tests pillows and mattresses for the Warm Springs Mattress Company. A little bird told us Joe was often found asleep on the job. Celia Kolman has set an all-time high. She has just pulled her 15-millionth red onion, which results in a you-know-what. She’s called Pucker-up Pin-up . Bill Duggan is stuck in a stuffy laboratory with chemicals and math formulae plastered all over the place. It seems Bill is still looking for an application of the Garman formulas. Bettie McGowan has filled the position of chief usherette at Goshen Theatre. Duripg the dark, spooky, scary parts of the murder thrillers we can see Bettie running down the aisles to hold the little children’s hands, so Neithold Brothers won’t lose the little kidtrade. Betty Lattimer has settled down into a sweet, serene life in the mass production of little bunnies . We hear she raises a gross a year. Marion Cortright, the newllome Ec teacher, now serves Cortright’s Little Gizzard Pills with every meal, and at last the cafeteria is free of complaints. Lots Soons has taken over the position of technical adviser to the Faculty of G.H.S. We see that the teachers still have the same problems they had when the Class of ’45 ruled the school. Lois has become quite a fanatic on IQs. She holds tests for all her victims semiweekly, even participating in them herself. From the last report Soonsie’s super-IQ is 300.45623890215%. Aubrey Christie, now incapacity of G.H.S. physical education teacher, can be seen chasing G.G. Sprague around the halls in a futile attempt to secure the gym after school, so the girls can play basketball once in a while. Daniel McEntire. Don’t let the Mac fool you. He’s really Scotch, and the latest evidence is that Danny is now in Glas-gae College as Cheer Leader. His latest yell is Get that quarterback! Irene Mally is now manager of a Bachelors Club. We see her flitting from one man to another, as she aids them in finding a permanent love life.Pemember the good

Pete Ptak wills to Eugene Barnes his infantry career. The Shorthand 2 Class leaves a ton of Snap-Whe n-You-Chew-It bubblegum to the teacher, Mrs. McEachern. To Miss Pope we leave haunting memories of forty little dears . Re, as a Class, express our sincere apprecxati on to all members of the Faculty who have guided us through these years of toil. We also hope that no Class they may have m years to come will cause as much trouble as we have, and that the future Classes will be more studious. In affectionate Farewell 7?e Class of is P TAKS GAKflGf

13 old days of 194-5, when you had to have-a priority to get a date? Well, thanks to Irene, them days are gone forever! Ruth Clayton, old and gray before her time, still looking for a man, one at least eight feet tall. You see, little Ruth has climbed to great heights. Inez Francisc o is now assistant Command-er-in-Chief of the Navy. In this high post she is able to get all the dope on the activities ana whereabouts of two sailors, both with the same name. Her favorite expression is, Eat, drink and be Harry . Francis Ford and Peter Ptak are operating in the latest sideshow of the Barnum Bailey Circus where they are known as The Long and Short of It. In his spare time Fordy fashions genuine antiques. Selena Brisky is still running around Middletown with two husbands! Her life is somewhat dangerous becauseneither husband knows the other exists. It is further complicated by the recent publication of a book entitled The life and Loves of Selena Brisky. Honest, it’s a moronic state of affairs. Marilyn Suresky is demonstration manager for Chesterfield Cigarettes--when she isn’t wound round a lamp post. We understand she got her license renewed only through political pull. Grace Brink has become manager of a chain of roller skating rinks. They have been recommended by posters all over the country, with the slogan saying Get Rid of Your Kinks at Brink’s Rinks .

Anna Richner has teamed upwith her childhood flame in an act with RinglingCir-cus that has plenty spark in it. It’s called the Charles Midge Motorcycle Show. Their records of speed challenge even those of Superman. Nellie Werner. Bus Howell isstill racking his brain,trying tofind someone to take Nell’s place at the Pantre. It seems they are losing the male quota of customers, due to the fact that Nellie has taken over as head waitress of Werner's We inery, where The Elite meet to eat . Joan McEntire and Eugene Creeden recently blessed Carnegie Hall with a joint appearance, playing the symphonic arrangement of Chop Sticks in Qb Minor. Joan’s superb accompaniment on the piano was surpassed only by the extravaganza on the violin by Squeakie. According to the critics,the team of Johannas McEntire and Eugenius Creeden is destined to become tops in the musical world. Audrey Weeden is now proprietor of the Greezy Soap Manufacturing Company. This soap, 86 44 100% pure, contains no oil, no grease, no fat, no nothin’. Incidentally, this is the reason the whole business is all washed up. William Bates has the only farm of its kind in the world. He has recently patented his own invention, meat seed. Bill is modest about his success; so in order to promote his products he has the walks and driveways of his palatial' residence linedwith anartistic pattern of pork chops for a border, and an assortment of salami and bologna for a background. Alice Currao and Julia Ptak are radio actresses with roles in the soap opera called Who Threw the Overalls in Mrs. Murphy's Chowder? or Get the Pants Out of the Stew.Ma! Alice portrays the domineering wife, Lulabelle; Julie is the adventuress, Madame Shoo-Shoo, in the eternal triangle. Don’t forget to send in your box-tops and get a free photo of Lulabelle and Madame Shoo-Shoo.Sorry, we are all out of photographs of the triangle. Phyllis Gillespie , we see, is now owner of a thriving Learn 'Em How to Argue School. All customers are High School pupils whostill have trouble with their insulting teachers. Naturally, Phyllis has had a bit of experience in this field, and is able to tell students exactly how tofight fortheir rights. Harry Pownall is pounding the skins on Broadway where his fame is secure. On the side he carries on a prosperous trade in the cartooning of wallpaper. By the way, the White House has just been redecorated with Pownall 's Popular Pictures. Dan Pe liar in, first Mayor of New Hampton, has, to the utter amazement of everyone, totally disappeared. Gone probably to another world, Mars perhaps, looking for a mate tosuit Gizwankus . Thus has the Class of '45 stood the test of years. Long live the Class of '45-
