B CLASS PROPHECY As we pass through the portals of Leicester High School, each of us will pursue his chosen field in life after four rewarding years of secondary education. What does the future have in store for us? Well, let ' s go crystal gazing and see. The date is June 15, 1975. Earlier today, I was in Nodes Market, now owned by Jimmy Dandro, and was doing my weekly shopping. Who should be there ' but Pam Lavin, Mr. Madden ' s secretary. Pam and I be¬ gan to talk over old times and our classmates at L.H.S. She informed me that Carolyn Field, Mar¬ garet Kane, and Nancy Fitch now make up a portion of the staff at the Presbyterian Hospital in New York City with Margaret Kane as head supervisor. I also learned that Betty O ' Donnell, Donna Sinclair, and Amelia Pucilauskas are considered old-timers on the teaching staff at the Memorial . .School. : • Pam and I then discussed the boys whom we were associated with in school. Some of them have very interesting professions. It seems that Jerry Jock, who owns a used car lot, got caught speeding one day by Chief of Police Dennis Bergin. Poor Jerry was summoned to appear in traffic court. Who should be his lawyer but Attorney Victor Cutroni. At last report they were still pulling strings to puli a fix-it. Jeffrey Wilkman made the first trip to the moon and is surviving quite well there. He is an electrician and is setting up the moon ' s electrical system. John McDermott is now a six-foot sky¬ scraper. While at college, he mistakenly swallowed the contents of a test tube labelled Not for Midgets. Al Mallett is now the janitor of the high school following Vinny ' s retirement. Pam asked me if I had heard the rousing political debate on radio in which Midge Cooper and Alan McCallie clashed. At that moment Sally Streeter entered the store and joined our talka¬ thon. She told us of a few more of our classmates. Bette Lou Dahlstrom has changed considerably and is now a missionary in Africa. Her sudden interest in this field shocked everyone who knows her. It seems she heard David Schwartz was captured by the head-hunters, so she is risking her life to save him. It was getting late and the store would be closing soon. I said good-by to Pam and Sally and went out to wait for a bus. I hadn ' t been standing there too long when Jo-Ann Dudley, who is now a medical secretary for Dr. Peter Letsky, approached me. She told me that Rita Gadbois and Demetra Fotiades are still the best of friends and have gone into the business of selling pencils at Leicester High .School. Pat Keating has become a successful tire saleswoman after a long, hard struggle. Marjorie Koss is the bookkeeper at Kemp Fashions, Inc., owned and operated by Mme. Madelyn Kemp. This thriving, concern specializes in Florida Fashions. Sandy Robidoux is now happily married and Judy Stuart has joined the Wacs to see the world. I guess she is, for she is stationed now in „ . Japan. ■ . Jo-Ann attended a circus in Worcester where Tom Jerome performed as strong man. v - . -Sandy Emmett also received feature billing with her trained animals. . ' As we talked, Doug Hager zoomed up in a shiny new Ford. He drove Jo-Ann and me home, ; . telling us he was now a go-getter as a Ford salesman. His great success has enabled him to open .y.:.;VV... ' the ekotic 91 3 Club. His shady partner in business is Austin Childs. Dr. Gene Butler is practicing .y . : in Timbuktu while Ralph Phipps is lost somewhere in one of our national forests. At last word he was a very able lumberjack. That evening J sauntered into Anderson ' s Pharmacy, owned now by Ronald Anderson. News- . paper headlines blared, President Donald Albro Declares Women ' s Rights Unconstitutional. Reading . further, I-learned that the ' First Lady, Louise, had actually voted for the opposition party ' s candidate , . - . for President - who? Jimmy Coonan, of course. ■ in and relayed the info that she plays a mean bass fiddle for the . ? y ' V.,C‘. } -A tro 5 ; dfnejsd SHe also, told tne that Norma Rudman became the first female teacher at Tech, and ’ W.ifltems : is ' an official dragster in Orange, Massachusetts, with her souped-up Pon- y r -yyrhyy-yy.Nj c.
