At the bottom of the page was a story on the biggest deer that had ever been shot in Wisconsin. It has been bagged by the game warden, KENNETH HAGEMANN. As I closed the paper I sat back and reminisced. I was nostalgic for the days back in Leaf River High School ten years ago. As I folded the paper I saw a picture of Eddie Fisher coming from my shop The MARILYN FISCHER Beauty Salon. I sat back and tried to project myself ten years into the future. What would I be reading about the famous class of '55? Mr. Gourley, Delores Knodle, Shelby Wagner, Arnold Schaper, Loren Kappenmann, Mr. Asbury. Bottom to top: Irene Genandt, Marilyn Fischer, Phyllis Long, Marilyn Myers, Delores Knodle, Shirley Smith, Harold Kuntzelman, Dwayne Templin, Norman Koemer, Loren Kappenman, Arnold Schaper, Doris Book, Virgil Hagemann, Shelby Wagner, Mr. Katz, Kenneth Hagemann, Roger Schelling, Mildred Book.

Gfass Prophecy On the morning of May 27, 1965, as I was waiting for my first customer, I picked up the Chicago Daily News and the first thing I noticed was that DWAYNE TEMPLIN was the new editor. I continued reading the first page and saw that the owner of the TWA Airport, NORMAN KOERNER, was to be in town to preside at an executive board meeting. I then came to the item on the present employment situation by the noted financier, JANET HIGH- BARGER, who had started her career as a private secretary. A little farther down the page was a brief synopsis of the trial of VIRGIL HAGEMANN. Virgil had received his degree in dentistry and was being gued for pulling John Appleton’s false teeth. I turned the page to the Society Section and under a large picture read the caption, Tycoon Marries Society Girl. It was a picture of MILDRED BOOK who had married the owner of the great Tombstone Company, the largest business in the world! I read farther into the report of the ceremony and observed with surprise that the service had been read by LOREN KAPPEN- MAN. The bride was attended by MARY TOOMSEN, a waitress in one of the leading restaurants of Leaf River, (the second largest city in Illinois). Leafing on to the Entertainment page, I read that the world's outstanding aerialist, PHYLLIS LONG, of Barnum and Bailey Circus, had missed catch- ing the swing and had plunged 135 feet. Fortunately, she had been using the net, so was not sferiously injured. She was rushed to the hospital and after regaining consciousness had her registered nurse, DELORES KNODLE, admit the members of the press. I looked on into the next column when to my surprise I was reading about the splendid entertainment of ARNOLD SCHAPER, who was directing an or- chestra, and his co-partner, the singing and dancing star, SHIRLEY SMITH. Miss Smith is now appearing in Oh! What A Girl, the musical comedy sensation now on Broadway. Continuing my perusal of the paper (my customer was very late), a flashing advertisement came before my eyes. It read Baby-sitting with children during the day. ” It was a nursery owned and operated by DORIS BOOK in the suburbs of Mexico City. In the Homemaking section there was an arti- cle on Modem Decor by IRENE GENANDT. In the section on Agriculture there was a column headed Sheep. As I know nothing about sheep I was not interested in reading it, but a familiar name caught my attention. The article was wrtiten by the most outstanding sheep breeder in northern Illinois and he was the husband of MARILYN MYERS. They lived in Adeline, a suburb of Leaf River. An item on Angus cattle named ROGER SCHELLING as the first place winner of the World's Grand Champion Steer. I turned to the Sports section edited by SHELBY WAGNER, star sports reporter. In his column he told of the fantastic ability of a basketball player who had scored 50 points in the first game of the season. Accompanying the story was the photograph of HAROLD KUNTZELMAN named World’s Best Athlete of the year, and showed Harold making his favorite long shot from the center of the court.
