Senior Glass SPropkecy In 1957 at a reunion of the Class of '47, the following facts were disclosed. Carol Alverson is now a very famous author. Her latest book is Amber Forever. Barbee Anderson is now using her brawn instead of her brain, as she is married and lives on a ranch at Beehive. Helenlouise Bade is now an accountant spokesman in the Clerical Union Workers. Robert Bernhardt is the most outstanding man of the times. He took the DuBarry Success Course. (—and girls, you should see that shape.) Bill Branstetter is now playing the entertaining part of the corpse on the Inner Sanctum program. As the saying goes, Birds of a feather flock together. Jim Brese is playing professional football in the place of Doc Blanchard. Jim was taken by the vim, vigor, and vitality of the ex-cheerleader from Laurel, Armelda Phillips. (Good Luck, 'Melda, as the wife of a wonderful football player.) Patricia Dantic is the leading lady in the social world. She never tires of visiting the most spectacular places or the latest Society Hangouts. Junior Fink is working all of the time on the 'Teen Agers Canteen. Good work, Junior, as we like to know that someone is thinking of the youth of today. Margaret Fink has dropped the soda and picked up with the jerk. (That's a pun, son!!!) Leo Foley is now the manager of the Notre Dame football team. Clarence Foos is now running for Governor of Montana. He thinks that education is the main factor in helping to get along in this desolate world. Ruth Frank is famous for the ability to capture a man's heart and keep it. She must be a good cook. Corrinne Frickel won the contest as the Miss Laurel of 1957. We all envy you your success, Corrinne. Evelyn Frickel is now taking the place of the famous Lana Turner, who has returned from the screen for another of her many love affairs. Jack Galusha is still eyeing what used to be his freshman flame. However, she is still not giving him any encouragement. Charlene Gass is now the head nurse in the N. P. Hospital in Glendive. (Hubba! Hubba!) Alvin Gomer has created the latest policy in the way to handle women. Treat 'em rough and make 'em like it. Of course, as you can guess, he never has a minute's peace the way women chase him. Barbara Greene is still the happy, blushing bride she became shortly after graduation. Walter Hall is doing a superb job in carrying on the Ness tradition of happy home life. Dorothy Hilgret, having become disgusted with men, is resigned to being an old maid. PAGE TWENTY
