The tree of time is a tree which can foretell the future. You go to it and ask questions concern- ing events to come in the future and it will shed a leaf. On this leaf is written the prophecy of the tree. We decided to visit this wonderful tree and see what it foresaw for the Class of 51. As the leaves fell, this is what we discovered. The first leaf that fell informed us that; Those famous bathing beauties Rhyl I is Ramsey, Mary Ann Height, and Phyllis Ward are competing for the title of Miss H-Bomb of 2000. Serving on the judging committee will be Alvin Johnson, Bill Hale and Dick Jones. Leo Keen, Jim Modd, and Dean Rader have formed a corporation in the old home town, and are engaged in machine production for the new factory which has taken the place of Timken Axle Plant. Ann Daniels and Mary Danner have a partner- ship in an Inter-planetary Dairy Service. Jo Ann Sacks and Carol Neal have been retained to play soothing music to the cattle; this method of keeping the cows contented works so well that they give nothing but super-electronic cream. Burke Ries, Bob Woodland, and Fred Barrett have a comedy trio on a planet-to-planet network. Also on the same network is Roberta Kinsey, Shirley Roby and C. C. Dick, who are modeling the latest fashions for color television shows. Dick Sharp and Gene Osbun have gone out for atomic car racing. They are known throughout the country for their fine performance and ability to keep the crowd on the edge of its seats. Rosa Nell Sherman, Wilma Shirk, and Anna Roby have taken a rocket ship to Mars for a vacation. Peggy Braig and Mary Lou Breidenbach are playing Atom, Atom, Who's Got the Atom, a new game which has taken the place of that strenuous game known as basketball for girls. Norman Rondo, Norman Glock and Leonard Gossard are building a rocket ship to go to the moon. After they return they plan to go into the selling profession—green cheese, that is. Bob Cummings (the pigeoneer) is now raising carrier pigeons for that new sport of pigeon racing. DeLUXE CLEANERS Quality Cleaning Pressing Phone 5248 N. Detroit Don Conkle, his assistant, does the menial tasks of feeding, cleaning, etc. Sally Harley and Eleanor Rodgers are co-owners in operating a restaurant. You all know how the Atomic Age has changed our eating habits. You just walk in and absorb the food. Slightly different from eating it; leaves more time for dinner conversation and saves on dishes and silverware. (Mary Mustain, dishwasher in one of the old fashioned restaurants, is now unemployed.) Gene Sites, who has purchased the gas station where he was once employed, has installed a new method of servicing. The gas is pumped by beautiful girls in shorts on roller skates. I hear his business is booming. Pat Jackson is head of the new library in the old home town. It seems that it rotates with the sun, thus keeping the librarian going around in circles all day. Safest place for bookworms in case of Atomic attack. But don't crowd, glow- worms ( new breed of bookworms) Lois Fitzpatrick and Winnie Katterheinrich! Don Harriman and Gail Smith have opened a combination pool hall and restaurant. They are doing fine, but if Don doesn't stop eating all the profits, they will be forced to close. Rachel Vanden has become a well-known piano virtuoso and is presently being featured at Carnegie Hall. Russ ( Vaughn Monroe ) Jones has a new dance band organized and is the top Swoon King of all the teen-agers. He calls his group the Cleft Dwellers. Barbara Brown iswearing one of the new glass dresses and is going to the H-Bomb Ball. Duane Deardorff ran away and joined the circus after he graduated and is now keeping audiences gaping at his antics on the high trapeze. We always knew that he would go up in the world. Mack Wrap 'em around the Pole Flinn and Bob Tear up the Turf Gemmell have gone out for professional golfing and are doing pretty well for themselves on the tournament circuit. Norma Jones is now a busy housewife, who, in her spare time, sings commercials on television. Charles Smith is now Admiral Charles Smith in command of the Navy rocket cruiser Spaces Unlimited. Millis Linton and Bill Fred- erick are his chief mechanics. Frankie Van Buskirk has a new job as a Director of the Inter-World Telephone Exchange Service, which is located in New York City. Gene Pifer and Louie Latham are playing on the Hook-Shots, a comedy basketball team Compliments of WETHERILL PARMER Barbers for Gentlemen Compliments of WESTERN AUTO 20

which tours the United States. Joe Edman is head cofcchof these fast-playing, quick-scoring cagers. Norman Turner, Dick Zeigler, and Neal Lowe are prosperous farmers. Their greatest am- bition is to out-do one another in hog-calling; which no one has been successful in doing yet. Sally Streak Wachalec has just won first place in the Women's Grand National Jet- propelled Automobile Race. Arnold Smith has opened a huge servi-center station for both rocket ships and atomic cars. Business is rushing (right past the door.) I hear that men are getting scarcer, and it must be true. I just met Jessie Ward, Kenton's new police force. Gary Bill Stern Sams, being interested in sports, is now a prominent sports commentator. His favorite annual football struggle is the one between Jumbo Tech, and Pfeiffer Station. Kenneth Weaver is now operating an Atomic taxi service. I wonder if he still uses the old Phantom Stagecoach ?? It seems there is a new sorority in town of which Marcella Parrott is the president. It is called the Eata, Gabba, and Gossipa. Basil Ward, former Kenton boy, is now Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. When asked to comment on his opinion of socialized medicine, he remarked, I don't understand why medicine needs society. Dean Zuchetto is actively participating in a World series. It's the Yanks versus the Reds. Dean, of course, is for the Yanks. Marilyn Montgomery is now the head of a chain of five-and-ten-cent stores which feature everything from baby buggies to kitchen sinks. Owen Leigh is now the owner of a self-service beauty salon. You just walk in and douse your head with hair dyes, bleaches, etc. For an extra dollar he will demonstrate each one personally. One of the Alumni of K.H.S., Reed Armen- trout, is one of the nation's leading artists and is now abroad painting for the royal families of Europe. Lois Norton, who is sponsored by that wonderful new product called soap , is now a popular television entertainer. Margaret Comer is her head gown designer and accompanist. Buddy Collins, former student of K.H.S., is now traveling throughout the country selling laboratory chemicals. This seems like a rather explosive job. Bob Cooper, once head drum major at the Alma Mater, is now stepping high and wide at Ohio State University. Compliments of THE NEWS AND REPUBLICAN We watched the Echo grow Stanley Corfman is now designing the latest fashions for Paris. That lucky mani I I hear that Ohio Northern University has added to its faculty staff Bob Reid, who will teach Philosophy. (Those poor students.) Elizabeth Guttenburg is now the secretary to the President of the United States. She makes $12,000,000dollars a year. (Inflation, you know.) Bert Howard and Bob Styer are now officiating at inter-scholastic basketball and football games. According to the fans the two robbers deserve the stripes they wear. David James is now the director of a large choir. Among his better singers are Bill Crosby Myers, James Sinatra Houghton and Kathleen Kate Smith Manlick. Bob Willeke is now pitching hand grenades for the armed forces. His baseball ability comes in handy for this job. Florence Bidwell, formerly an outstanding student in bookkeeping, is now having difficulty in balancing her checking account. She always wonders why they are marked insufficient funds. She thinks that if the bank doesn't have enough money to make it good, they shouldn't be opened to the public. Paul Grode and Ollie Stephens are touring the country as census takers. One way of meeting girls. (Now they have an excuse.) Thus the prophecy of the tree of time was completed. Bert Howard Bob Cummings 21
