Class Prophecy Presenting 'Candid Camera, television's favorite program bringing you on-the-spot pictures of the 1953 Leo graduates! This program comes to you through the facilities of station L-I-O- N-S. The first part of our program is sponsored by SchIatter's Pet Shop. See MEL BA for puppies and COLLEEN for guppies. The photography technician and lens cleaner for this telecast is GUS STEINER. Gus has really done quite well. Previously, he was noted for his outstanding work in photographing family reunions. First our camera picks up DON LEICHTY and DON REDIGER who operate a fleet of shrimp boats from the Cedarfille Dam Project. Rediger's wife, the former MONA GALE PAGE, is seen adjusting the carburetor on her husband's automobile. Next door we see the Rainbow Skating Arena. And look, there is BILL HEFTY instructing a group of four-year-olds in the art of skating. We journey across the street where RUTH FILLMAN is manager ofa tea room and graham cracker shoppe. And there is LOIS TRIMBL E, who is 'ull at sea' over a certain sailor. We bet she really has gobs to talk about. There visiting with Lois is Janice Blume who has won fame as the only woman auctioneer in the Middle West. Our camera now catches the public beach where ARLENE KRYDER is leisurely resting after a hard day's work. Arlene is head oiler on a Pennsylvania Railroad Locomotive. She finally bought that yellow Pontiac convertible and has bleached her hair to match the car. Look at those lovely yellow stteaks in her hair. Our camera now moves into the community church where the REVEREND DWIGHT GRABER is preparing his Sunday morning sermon. Up in the choir we see QUENTIN SAVAGE, Choirmaster, holding rehearsal for sixty young boy sopranos. And here entering the church is BEVERLY ROTH--uh, Mrs. Noel Grabill, who has just returned from India, where she an'd her husband have outfitted the Sacred Cows of Calcutta with turtle-neck sweaters. After leaving the church, we next catch the Rubber Band Factory, where ELEANOR SCHOWE and CAROLYN BECK are co-owners. The girls tell us that business has been on the stretch lately. Snap it up, girIsI Next we journey to the Leo Lending Library where DONNA DELAGRANGE is busy sorting out comic books and True Confessions' magazines. We focus our camera across the river where PAULINE RAGAN is happily polishing ball bearings in her husband's machine shop. Now as a friendly reminder for those of you who desl'te the unusual in a fur coat, we ask that you see Schlatter's for your Otters. The second half of this program is sponsored by that prominent Wall Street tycoon, RICHARD TOAD BUFFENBARGER. Rich is the maker of a seven-cylinder sportscar whichhe calls the Toadmobile. In the supersonic gear, this car really hops. We now hop to Crab Apple, Tennessee, where ROBERT SCHULTZ is coach of the high school basketball team. His team plays a possessive game and features the slow break. They won their first game of the season I27-89. Our candid camera next takes us to Guatumala where RONNIE SHAW is operator and manager ofa chicken farm. A native informed us that Shavvs 'squaws' sell like hot cakes. The native added that the chickens even taste like hot cakes. Now back to Cedar Canyons. There is GENE KLOPFENSTEIN, a well-known big game hunter on an expedition to gather fossils for the incoming biology class. Next we flash you to FLORENCE LIECHTY who is known to be an outstanding girl athlete and recently signed as the only girl player in the International Hockey League. The camera sneaks a look at RITA SHELMADINE, She has just broken off with another boy friend and has immediately signed a seven-year contract to sing at the Fqrmer's Institute Programs. Her perfect attendance in school helped her to land this job. As we pass a beautiful shack, our camera looks into a picture window and see PHYLLIS CAMERON listening to 'City Hospital' on the radio. She is still trying to decide whether or not to be a nurse. Next door is a fireside scene of LLOYD andJUANITA, who are the proud parents of their third set of triplets. They have named their new arrivals Hewey, Dewey, and Lewey. Our camera moves across to the once new school building and here we find NANCY LINNEMEIER operating a training school for yell leaders. Her hair is now a flaming red. Nancy's college education was cut short when she eloped with a meat cutter after only four days on the campus. Also at the school is MARJORIE BAUMAN who has signed for a long-term contract as Chaperone for all fan busses from Leo School. A special bulletin has just been handed mel JAKE EMRICK has just been promoted to head pretzel twester at the Pretzel Factory. There is a man who is really wrapped up in his work. Now to Studio B , We see a rehearsal of DON DEAN'S musical agregation. The instrumentation includes 78 drums, 4 lawn mowers, two tubas, and a floor sander. BEVERLY VANZILE, also in Studio 'B , is trying to out sound Don. She has perfected a moose call on her trombone that is quite effective. She demonstrated her technique at the recent Moose Convention, and several hundred moose came out of the Canadian vsoods, swam the Niagara Rapids, and put in an appearance at the convention hall. Back to familiar territory. There is GENEVA and ANN AMSTUTZ entering their Lonely Hearts Club. Their slogan is: TRY OUR PLAN--GET A MAN One of the most frequent visitors to this club is NORMA CHANEY, who is still a hankerin' for Glenn Notestine. It seems that neither of them can stop giggling long enough to propose. It again come time to cover the lense of 'Candid Camera, the program that brings you the people in today's headlines. THIS IS 'WHATTA' NETWORK!
