Senior Class Prophecy Geel lt's good to get back to Jackson High ance more. It doesn't seem as though ten years have passed already. I think I shall try to find out where some of my classmates are. First l'll go to the principal's office. He should know where most of them are. Mariorie Painter married the Oglesbee boy. Sam is still in the Navy, but that makes no difference to Margie. She takes the six boys and travels with him. Delores Calim is in the same boat, only she has but two to take with her. She finally married the boy to whom she was writing when' she was a senior in high school. It was interesting, but not shocking to hear that Janet Lenhart is running for President of the United States on the Democratic ticket. I guess she got most of her training in govem- ment and history class. Rita Heintz still enioys those trips, like the one she took to Texas ten years ago. Be- sides taking vacations, she is a technologist at one of New York's Science Institutes. Eldon Shoffner has gained the position of owner of the Marathon Service Station. Eldon is getting along fine with Bill Wheaton, who is the mechanic at the station. The principal says that those were the only people he knom about. So, l'll wander around the study hall for awhile. I find the study hall teacher to be Velma Regula, who went to Ohio Narthem to be a commercial teacher. She tells me she took Mrs. Forsythes place three years ago. Her cousin, Dick Regula, went to O.S.U. and is now the County Agricul- ture Extension Agent for Shelby County. He also is happily married to a girl he met at college. Here ls a brilliant looking girl sitting at this table. l'll ask her about some more of my classmates. Tom Boyer is still Jackson Center's Na. l Cassenova. That boy, he never will settle cbwn. Phyllis Vonderhueval and her husabnd are living on one of the Vonderhueval homesteads, raising registered Jerseys. Charles Allinger finally found a girl he thinks a lot of. I guess they are going to be married soon, as she is flashing a diamond. Betty Smith is now living in California. She is a model for the California Fashion Center, and spends a lot of her time at the Little Horse Thief Ranch. Bill Hagelberger is now a veterinarian for the city of Jackson Center and its surround- ing territory. While at O.S.U. he met and married a girl who is a home economics teacher at Jackson also. Thye are raising White Rock chickens. Well, I think l'll go down to the gym, and see what class is playing ball. I find Marvin Zwiebel is coaching now. He says he is not married but that a commercial teacher is taking a lot of his time. I wonder who that commercial teacher is????? Marvin tells me that Ivan Zom Is happily married and is raising Angus cattle besides the two little Zorns. Shirley Glett is a very good nurse at the Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton now. She took her training at Lima but is now working in Dayton. Anna Mae Peterson is happily married and both she and her husband are working at Waverly, Ohio, as chemist at the atomic plant. K Charles Rose and Richard Kies are busy fanning their dad's farms. Chuck became a raiser of Spotted Poland Chinas. Maybe these two boys could get together and run a bachelor's home. I think l'll iourney over the to grade school now. The bell just rang for lunch hour and I find Phyllis Kies, who is teaching the third grade, coming down the stairs. Phyllis says she still hasn't found the right one but she has her eye on that certain neighbor boy. 16
