In Witness whereof, I hereunto set my hand and seal the f0TL day of .0 in the year one thousand nine hundred and J?g . W tnesse The year 1967 is here. Twelve years having passed since the class of SS received their long worked-for diplomas from L.C.S. Now, while gazing in a fortune tellerfs crystal ball, Joan White, a model for a large New agency, sees her fellow classmates very busy at their occupations. First she sees Gail Barton happily married with a part time job as practical nurse in the Syracuse hospital and doing very well in her profession. Then Ann Ludlow, who is busy at her important job as head operator the telephone office in Watertown. The next person Joan sees which surprises her very much is Dale Hutchinson. After he finished his Air Force training, he studied to be doctor. He is now practicing in LaFargeville. Jack Webert seems to appear through the mist and haze in the glass then she sees that he is assistant manager of Clifton Timerman's Turkey at Orleans Four Corners. A York a of a and Farm Then the image of Jean Barton Kellogg, comes into view and it gradually gets clearer so Joan sees her working as the head nurse in the House of Good Samaritan in Watertown. the Joan blinks her eyes at the next person's image that shows up in the crystal ball, for it is Ann Graves. She is teaching kindergarten at LaFarge ville School and she likes her job very much. when the image of Ann Graves fades away the next one that takes form is Bob McAvoy. He is a well known engineer and is not married as yet, for he likes his bachelorhood too well and is able to go out with all of those beautiful girls they have in Chicago. Betty Cosbey is next to come into view. She is a stenographer in the office of the Watertown National Bank. Next into the glass comes Betty Carlisle who is very busy housewife with her three children to watch while she runs her motel at Omar, New York. Joan is now looking closer in order to see the next person that is come into view. It's Elaine Walts and she is working in the Rochester Savings Bank. Through the strong mist Joan sees Ella Dawn Getman as the head book to keeper at the Watertown Savings Bank. when not working at her bookkeeping job she drives her snazzy red buick convertible in which she takes her friends for a ride. Z0 After Ella Dawn's form fades into the background, Karl Chr1stophel's is the next to appear. He owns a printing office in New York City with his wife to guide him in his business affairs. Jim Larkin is next to be seen as owner of a boat line and garage in Clayton. Mary Patterson has just received her stripes for ten years of service in the Waves. Jim Stephany whose image next appears is a very successful lawyer in Rochester, New York. His wife Dawn helps him along with his business affairs and cares for their children. p Walter Poth has taken over his father's farm and is now raising prize beef cattle. He still maintains his bachelor status. Next Joan sees Joseph Stanford who has finished his training in interior decorating and has his studio in Hollywood. Last, but not least she sees Mike McCarthy, laden with trophies won as a star track runner, now holding the title of Mr. New York State'.
