31644 paopfwcq Being a person who always likes to look ahead, I started looking for a so-called fortune teller. I always had a little hope for the class of '51 -Mr. Lasher even did. In the last big carnival held in Ireland, I shopped around for a crystal ball teller, and sure enough, I found one. On the outer part of the big tent was a picture of Madame Patricia Marganrizo. I went inside only to find out that. the madame was none other than Patty Morgan. In only one year she gained high renoun in the field of the crystal ball. She told me- later that she has told the fortune of such celebrities as Margaret Truman, Drew Pearson, and many others. There was a large crowd to see Madame Patricia, but after finally my turn came, I inquired about the future of all the members of the class of '51. This was in 1970. The madame first saw a man with a very distinguished look-a man of high intelligence. With much effort she was able to see that it was Frank Schmitt, who was the head of the ecology department at the University of Notre Dame. Since Frank and Alf Burger were always together in school, I ex- pected him to be also in the same profession, but to my surprise, he wasn't. He was traveling through the country in a covered wagon with his wife and thirteen children. His occupation was rather odd, he was a knife grinder. Alf seemed very content, after all he was successful in life. All of a sudden tl1e crystal ball cracked, shivered, and the madame went into a deep coma. I was wondering what happened and then she came out with it. In the new 553,000,000 hospital just constructed in the suburbs of Ireland, Dr. Tony Terwiske was in charge. He had gained a high position in the field of medicine. He was one of the members on the Board of Governmental Health. He acted as special advisor on the newly adopted Socialized Medicine Program set up in this country. He first became interested in this program while he was still a senior. Dr. Terwiske had as his able assistant, Nurse Rosie Blessinger. There was more than just mutual interest in their profession. The crystal be- came very foggy here but I was informed that they were engaged and were getting married. Rosie was chosen the nurse of the year back in 1957. Then came in focus a young lady high in society. It was Millie Mehringer. She had married the man who owned half of Ireland. She amused herself mostly on her ranch where she had fifteen race horses. In 1959 her Atom Bomb won the Kentucky Derby. She spends all her winters in Florida. She is the envy of all the people in Ireland. 17
