Class Prophecy It had been ten years since the class of '59 graduated. As we came sailing through our thriving metropolis lwhich was quite large by nowi in my Jaguar, I noticed a little plump man with a star on his chest and a red light on his car. By the time I got stopped, he already had my ticket written out. We recognized him at once as Bill Barnett. Bill said he took the job because of the high salary. Bill said everyone was still around except for Roger Campbell. He was in jail serving seven years for improper mufflers. Roger iust couldn't live without that roar. We said so long to Bill and went on up the road to a hotel entitled the SIeeptight. After ringing on the bell for about five minutes, down a stairway staggered a man in a night gown and a night cap. This turned out to be Jim Estes. Jim said he and Alice Wolfmeyer had gotten married shortly after school was over. Jim said they had bought the hotel from Conrad Hilton for a real cheap price. The bellboy turned out to be Larry Musser. As we climbed up the fifteen flights of stairs, we had a real nice visit with Larry. He said he gave up farming because there was no future in it. The next morning we stepped out of the hotel, and were almost hit by a Semi. The driver locked his brakes and ran back to see if we were hurt. To our surprise the driver was Leon Bowman. When he found out we weren't hurt, we started gabbing. Leon said he finally got a iob hauling money for the government. As we walked around the corner, we saw a sign Marge's Lonely Hearts Club. We realized at once this was Marge Bringer. She said business was thriving. She said she married Mike Humphrey a few days after graduation. Mike was now a big TV star and had a program called Powderburn in which he was an honest gunfighter. Saying so long to Marge, we walked on down the street. Since the traffic was too bad to drive in, I hailed a cab. The driver turned out to be Larry Lewis. Larry was now married and had five kids. Larry said John-Hickman and Dickie Weathers were playing basketball for the Harlem-Globetrotters. Larry said they were both high point men averaging forty points a game. I had Larry drop us off at the docks. I tipped Larry a ten and went on out to where the boats were. On one of the submarines was Jerry Springett. Jerry was now an Admiral and in charge of all the submarines in the Navy. Jerry had married Alma Lee Painter and had three boys. He said they all had his good looks and AIma's brains. Jerry said Bob Sullens remained single and was now a Commander on a destroyer. Gene East was doing some kind of top secret work exploring what was under the South Pole. We left the docks and started for the main part of town. By this time we were getting hungry, so we stopped in the swankiest restaurant in town. Who should be the owners but Connie Tracy and Darlene Prisner. They said the restaurant was the best investment they ever made. Darlene was real happy and flashing a diamond. I asked her who the lucky man was. She went to the kitchen and returned shortly with Johnny Solter who was head chef and meat cutter. Johnny said the wedding was going to take place in two weeks and everyone was invited. Connie had married .Ian Solter when he got out of college. Jan was now working as a chemist with the local rocket firm. I threw a quarter in, the iuke box and guess who I heard! lt was Larry Jones and Lynda Meyer singing a revised version of Tom Dooley. Connie said Larry and Lynda had teamed up and had eight gold records. After paying my bill we walked a couple of blocks and saw a sign Grace's Furs. Of course, we had to go in. To my surprise the owner was Grace Hubble. She said she had been in business for about a year and was slowly running Paris out of business. Grace hadn't married yet but she said she was waiting for the right man. After leaving Grace, we kept on walking and soon saw a sign in real bright colors, Von Ludwig lnc.
