Class Prophecy Georgia Zittrauer, alias Dorothy Kilgallen, reported the latest gossip of the 1963 Seniors of Interstate 35 last Sunday night on her broadcast. Georgia said Janet Mease finally got married, and changed her name to Mouse. She said, l hated Meases to pieces. Russel Strawn always claimed he hated girls, but the Bible said, Love thy enemy, so that is what he does. Since Roxie and Larry made such a good couple, they now run a children's home, and take care of 85 kids, besides their own quads. That class was full of enterprising people, who are making their way in the business world: Roderick P. and Marilyn P. own the P. 81 P. Midni ht Auto Supply with the slogan, You need it, we'll steal it. George J. is makingiis living sell- ing one-piece bikinis at the South Pole--a scanty living, though, while David and Martha are on the carnival circuit running, roving crap games. DeVon Woods has gone behind the Iron Curtain to open a bar er shop. Carole B. and Norma F. have crossed the border into Canada, where Carole operates a busy funeral home next to the hospital where Norma is the head nurse. Those famous singers, David Leachman and Steve King, are barkers for the Dipsy Doodle Dollies Shows. Since Vernon K. worked so hard in his childhood, he now plays around in his own pool hall. June Schnoor is a bar maid there. Quite a few of the class of '63 are in Des Moines: Don C. is chief paddle tester forafirm supplyingischool principals, Marilyn C. and Linda Bulke ey are co-partners in a key clu g while Monty Morris is trucking garbage. His motto still is, We care for our freight. Although they swore they would never do it, several students became teachers: Galen S., mathematics at Interstate, Eric L., Home Economics at Podunk Center, Alvin Vickroy, longhair music at Fort Madison, Jerry C. at Arthur Murray's, where his whole course is based on one idea: Step on your own feet. Wally S. always claimed he would clean up around the school if he were the principal, and now he does--as janitor. Some of the class stayed down on the farm, like Dave Ballard who sleeps away the daylilght hours in the house, while Linda does the field work. Henry H. is running a c icken farm for all Cool Chicks and Chick Daddy O's. Pat Warden just married a rich Iowa farmer, and looks just as young and beautiful as when she graduated. Well, why shouldn't she, with all her servants waiting on her. Donna Kennedy Denly is busy raising a large family, and plans to someday set up housekeeping in the White House. Behind every great man is a great woman, and behind Steve F. there is Doris A., who drove him to be mayor of Medora in his spare time. Roger MCC., a part-time farmer, is also in politics. He's mayor at Truro, busy enforcing the midnight curfew. ' Several of our class have roamed far and wide: Charlie S. joined the Navy to see the world. Sherry S. went to the Congo to bleach the natives' hair, using her own secret method. Rick W. went on' a world tour, just to get away from the multitude of women chasing him. Carol E. and Gary P. are owners of a kangaroo farm in Australia--a business that grows by leaps and bounds.

II. Milton Moore Was Our Commencement Speaker J I A highlight of the Commencement Exercises was the talk by Principal Larry Pollock: To the Seniors may I say, Remember this--Be good, but not too good--a little naughty, but not too naughty. Say a prayer if you feel that way, say damn if it gives you consolation. Be kind to the world always, if possibleg yet, if you must be unkind, smash right and leftg get it over and forget it. Smile, always smile, have a smile ready even though sometimes it hurts. Grab all the happiness you can--whenever you can -- wherever you can--don't let even a wee bit slip past you. Live, above all things live. Don't simply exist. If you are blessed enough toknowwhat real love is, love with all your heart, soul, and body. Live your life so that at any hour you will be able to shake hands with yourself and try to accomplish at least one thing worthwhile each day. Then, when your nights come, you will be able to pull up the covers and say to yourself, I have done my best. Mr. Loren Kale, President of the Board of Education presents diplomas and offers congratulations to graduates Catherine Bell and Jerry Clarke, as Principal Pollock reads the class roll. I
