CLASS PROPHECY After many years of experimentation the first successful space ship has finally been launched by the eminent Dr. Albert Fedor. Being personal friends of Dr. Fedor's we. Bob Colter and Judy Irwin, are to be the first to receive the honor of operating a space ship. From our position, 300 miles out in space, we see a crowd gathering around what used to be the location of old HHS before the GREAT FIRE, which was started when Butch Wininger accidently kicked the automatic stoker while carrying off government lunch meat. On closer inspection we find the occasion to be the dedication of a new school and drag strip. We see the ceremonies are about to begin. Let us move closer. Jerry Thompson has just arrived on foot bearing the OFFICIAL OPENING TORCH. Wanda Nichols nearly falls from her seat on the fence as Rose Ann Shull, star of radio and television, strikes her high note singing the NATIONAL ANTHEM. The benediction given by Rev. John Brubaker, is followed by the introduction of the Mother of the Year, Linda Marsh, who is seated in a special box with her twelve children; this is interrupted by the entrance of Dave Hiser, Father of the Year, with his present wife and three of his ex-wives. We see very few familiar faces of the faculty. However, the old standbys Hal Platt (now completely bald) and Melvin Conner (discoverer of WILD TOOT HAIR GROWING TONIC) are present. The Mistress of Ceremonies, Shod Townsend, is introducing the judges of the race who are local celebrities. Phil Glaze, Mayor of Cantrallville; Adalee Lovern, famed music teacher; and Dick Brown, new principal of Harrison High School. Run- ning through the crowd are Wayne Lee selling popcorn, and Carolyn Sites hunting autographs. Among the employees are Jim Brown, official starter; Bob Crozier, ambulance driver; and Darwin Clevenger, head mechanic. Everyone's attention is drawn to the sky as Judy Cox, winner of the POWDER PUFF DERBY, comes soaring in bringing with her Evelyn Gasper the beauty queen for today's dedication. Today's meal has been planned by Marilyn Holloway, dietician for the new school and served with the cooperation of Joan Scales, Home Ec. teacher, and the enter- tainment is to be provided by the girls' Physical Education Department under the direction of Lois Ann Short. All proceeds from the event are to go to charity since the services of Jerry Mifflin construction engineer and his private secretary, Joyce Harless, have been donated. The entire project is being financed by Pat Painter, owner of a chain of launderettes and manager of EDWARDS GROCERIES, INC. As our ship gains altitude we faintly see Janet Antrim, famous woman driver, and Don Bailey, top male driver, climbing into their cars for the first race on the drag strip. But wait! There's a man on the track. Oh, we see, it's Jim Nauman wealthy insur- ance salesman selling policies to the drivers. Judy Irwin Bob Colter
