A Look Into the Future The year . . . 1978, the place . . . Jordan Junior Highis girls gym, the event . . . the 15th re- union of the class of ,63. We find that our former classmates are engaged in many different walks of life and are scattered throughout the world. Many have found success. In the entertainment world we find Bob Spooner with his own chorus line at Radio City Music Hall, with Roger Holmgren as his publicity agent and Jim Sawyer as a part of the line. Also in the world of enter- tainment we find Nancy Gripp with her own musical comedy show. Tom Ditty is on her staff as her chief adviser; with Tom Coursolle a member of the stage crew and Don Crosby doing commercials. The new hit Broadway play, 1iEast Side Story? is featuring Karen Kleman and Jim Potts in the leading roles. At least one of our former classmates was bound to join the circus and Keith Howlett is busily carrying water for ele- phants in a circus owned by Nancy Stone. Also a member of this famous circus is Suzzanne Hagquist as an animal trainer. Pam Rocheleau has a cotton plantation down South, shared with Sue Hoffman and Sandy Korogi. Leota Spalla and Margaret Hall left their domain of the World Library to be present at the reunion. The famous Jerry Tobler and Dick Dykoski are now designing womenis fashions. Also in the world of fashion we find Denny Kollodge and Bruce Berg designing the latest in high-fashion scuba suits. Doug Reaser and John Bloom have opened their own beautyisalon with Linda Anderson as a steady customer. If we want to find Bill Moore, he will be judging the 11Miss Universell pageant in which Kathy Eck- berg is representing Iceland and Lucy Slater, the 1963 Student Council. Jim Markson has just designed a space ship in which Bernard LaFerrier will take off for Mars in two weeks. Good luck, Bernie! Mike Fern has his own greenhouse-raising ferns and flowers. Dan Johnson is running a funeral par- lor in Alaska. Jack Takemoto is managing the school supplies shop at the United Nations building. Joan Fortin is also at the UN. as a peace ambassador. Four of our former classmates-Carol Smith, Jeannine Werner, Sis Kreuter, and Steve Ford couldnit make it because they are competing in the Olympics. While all this has been happening, Ron Jones has remained at Jordan teaching algebra. Little did we dream in 1963 of the heights the future held in store for us all.
