Prophecy The census taker ran his fingers through his hair, loosened his tie, and reached for his briefcase. After he’d proped his feet up on his desk and found the particular paper he was looking for he laughed (a rather loud “horse laugh” that could only belong to Jim Renwick). For, in this day’s work of ringing doorbells and asking questions, Jim had gathered some information on this paper, about his graduating class of old Hartwick High. The only one who’s still in Hartwick is Bob Mack. Good old “Boob” is raising cows. Of course, Dick Hayes may still be in Hartwick. Nobody knows for sure, but some suspect he’s that oIcTfiermit hiding up on Christian Hill. The blond girl, Joyce Bresee, certainly makes headlines. Why, I bet she’s broken the record, even for Reno. She has a pretty good consultant and lawyer in Fred Striesse. I hear that she finds him a handy boy to have around. Jim chuckled out loud. Mike Gregory’s in the news too. A new generation of “Bowery Boys” has been formed and Mike Gregory, out of all the polished and sophisticated actors in Hollywood, has been picked to play “Catch” son of “Satch”. It has just been announced by the Baseball Hall of Fame that they’re reserving an alcove for the famous big league player Fran Schweitzer, now with the New York Yankees. He’s a real hero now and even has his picture on the Wheaties boxes. In the Indianapolis 500 Mile Championship Race last May, Ray Polulech made a dent with his souped-up “Hot to Go”. He astonished his fans by coming in last. Last on the list is Patricia Hacklin. She has a little novelty painting business of her own on Fifth Avenue called “Hackie’s Haven”. Jim folded up his paper, leaned back in his chair and roared with laughter. 23

Green Juniors This year the Juniors have been very active. In early fall they elected their officers: President - Frank McGrath Vice-President - Ann Patterson Secretary - Mary Ann Domion Treasurer - Joyce Persons Advisor - Mrs. Green For the Sesqui-Centennial, they had seals printed and mounted them on ash trays, plastic boxes, and on “keys to the city”. They had a stand on the athletic field and sold these to some of the many people who returned to Hartwick for that celebration. Later, the Juniors sold stationery and Christmas cards, put on movies, sold pop-corn at ball games and had a raffle. As a fitting climax to this school year, they hope to have a Junior Prom in the spring. Thus,, they will finish their third year at H. H. S. and become official Seniors. Frank McGrath 25
