ITEM I We give, devise, and bequeath to the 12A class teachers the empty seats with the hope that the future 12A's will fill them as well (?) as we did. We also leave the 12A sponsors with a new source of headaches, the next senior class. ITEM II We give, devise, and bequeath to the 12B's all the solemn moments of being a senior; such as, the Ohio State Psychological Test, and the happier times when the social events take place. ITEM III We give, devise, and bequeath to the student body in general, the privilege of attending the opportunity . study hall. Furthermore, we leave to the student body the senior bulletin board which some day you will all use. (We hope!) ITEM IV We, as individuals, bequeath the following: Mr. Filiere isn't going to be happy, but STEVE CHWALYK wills all his unsold tickets to him. To the fortunate Tollcnte who gets a free period to go to Art's, JOHN ( Oh! how I hate to move! ) EVER-ARD surrenders his seldom-used Tol-lente chair in the main hall. RUSTY SCHAD abandons the Radio Room couch for the next lucky person on Mr. Gartland's list. TONY MANIACI and JOE PERUCKI donate their slightly worn twin parking spaces to the next two students with twin cars. (Which twin is Tony's?) Crunch! Crunch! Eh, what's up. Doc? DELMAR BACHMAN leaves his carrots for the next Rabbit that comes along. JOHN LIOCE bequeaths his trombone to the next person full of hot air. ROSEMARY DEUCHER and EILEEN NINGARD vacate their two back seats on the Scranton bus in favor of any two girls who come so far together. TAP! TAP! TAP! RICHARD WILLIAMS bequeaths his typewriter in 314 to the next aspirant in Mrs. Mickey's homeroom who wants to type by the pick and peck system. Well, we did itl We convinced VICTOR HOCHEVAR that he should consign his Math book to some poor soul who has to do homework in the peace (?) and quiet (?) of his homeroom. (It didn't take much coaxing.) JACK MARESH and CHUCK SCHROEDER are leaving their empty places in Mr. Newell's leather doss to the next students who HAVE to go to the leather store. (Nice work, boys!) SOPHIE L E N T Z A S and CLAIRE WALTZ bequeath their second period library table to two more gals who have so much library work (you call that work?) to do. (Happy days are ahead for you. Miss Briggs.) DAVE WORK isn't leaving the well-worn gavel to the next class president who has trouble keeping the 12A's in order; he's giving it. (Avec plaisir, huh Dave?) May Scheherazade rest in peace! DAVE JOHN leaves his part of the Arabian Nights mural to Mrs. Francis to do with it what she may. MARIANNE SIMICH and PAT SENYK will their positions on the Harvord-Yale Basketball and Volleyball Teams to the next girl athletes. Get that ball! RICHARD ZIETLOW and AL ZIEMBA leave their spots to be filled on the football team to the next two stars that come along. MIKE FAZIO just leaves . . . ITEM V All the rest, residue, and remainder of our estate; such as, worn out text books, etc., we leave to the school in general. ITEM VI We nominate and appoint Mr. E. J. Bryan, Principal of Lincoln High School, executor of this our Last Will and Testament to serve without bond. IN WITNESS WHEREOF we have hereunto subscribed our title and seal to this our Last Will and Testament at Cleveland, Ohio, this nineteenth day of January, A.D. 1951. THE CLASS OF JANUARY, 1951. New York, January 19, 1970 Class Brush Girls, Sophie Lentzas and Carol Grebenik, who are in a hurry trying to make a sale. The next thing they know the conductor is shouting, Cleveland! FLASH! FLASH! This is Rusty Schad bringing you a special news bulletin from far-off Tibet. The long-lost explorers. Dr. Richard Zieflow, Professor Michael Fazio, and Assistant-professor Kenneth Cutteridge, who have been absent from our shores for twenty years and who had been given up for lost, have just been rescued by aviators James Elias and Frank Colonna. We are looking forward to the arrival of the intrepid explorers, who are expected at New York harbor tomorrow at 6:00 P. M. What surprising changes are in store for them! January 20, 1970 Toot! Toot! New York at last! To our heroes the shores of the United States certainly look good. The first thing on their list upon debarking is to purchase a new wardrobe. Of course, Fred Wunch's haberdashery is THE STORE in New York. Out they come nattily dressed in suits styled by the famous designers of men's clothes, Dorothy Gluschenko and Helen Chwir-chok. The next stop is Futey's Fine Foods, the topic of conversation in the wilderness of Tibet. Whom should they see among the entertainers but the famous singers, Lois Nirmaier and Don Ertman, who are accompanied by Phyllis Coffman, Nona Dieck, and John Lioce. What a coincidence to find them together after twenty years! By this time the food which they had eaten has affected them in such a way that they decide to see a doctor. Walking into the nearest doctor's office, they are amazed when greeted by Ruth Kabat, the doctor's receptionist. She shows them into the office where they see Dr. Steven Chwalyk. He, assisted by his two nurses Betty Daubncr and Arlene Krumheuer, is diagnosing the case of Mildred Fedorchak, who sprained her finger while pressing a little too hard on her typewriter. Dr. Chwalyk examines them and finds out that their indigestion is due to the fact that they were not yet used to eating and had better go easy for a while. The next problem they face is how to obtain enough money for their train trip to Cleveland. They decide to go to the Red Feather agency to present their problem. To their surprise, David John, alias Mr. Anthony, the social worker, welcomes them and lends them the money for the trip. Boarding the train, they see conductor Mike Gracon, who is still keeping in shape by punching tickets. Brushing past them are the two Fuller Upon their arrival at the terminal, there is a great deal of commotion. It seems they have arrived on election day. On the election ballot are David Work and Albert Zicmba, who are running for mayor. Running for head of the Reform Committee, are Carol Holub and Marianne Simich. Going down a familiar street, they see Roberta Schroeder, Claire Waltz, and Irene Sobol hanging up their week's wash, with children everywhere in sight. Leaving these pleasant surroundings, they decide to visit good old Lincoln High School. As they walk into the building, they are greeted by Assistant-Principal Anthony Maniaci who shows them into Mr. Hochever's math class and Miss Isabelle Nofel's art class. Leaving the school, they spy three of their old buddies, Richard Williams, Jack Maresh, and Delmar Townsend, refuse expediters, who admit their career smells, but it is a living. Across the street what should they see but the Richard Reb-holz Construction Company building a new government project. In the excavation they spy none other than Edward Schumacher and Colin Townsend, the professional ditch diggers. The job seems to be running along smoothly except in a far-off corner where water begins to spurt out of every pipe. It's just our own Joseph Peruki trying to make good connections in his plumbing business! Their next important stop is to see Charles Schroeder, who is now the head of the Navy Department. Upon entering, they hear a rapid ticking sound similar to that of a woodpecker. Who should it be but Eileen Ningard, Betty McIntyre, and Nida Stroup, busily typing. As they pass the switchboard, they spy two of their classmates, Ethel Garfinkel and Ada Jester, very industriously tangling the wires. In the accounting department they see Rosemarie Deucher, Charlotte Bartz, and Bernice Inman busy keeping the books in order, while Delmar Bachman, the manager, is busy keeping the girls in order. Glancing at the wall, they happen to see a painting done by Fred Fechuch. They are so overwhelmed with its beauty that they inquire about it. Their first words are, What is it? We know, of course, that this picture will some day be placed in one of our biggest Art Museums. Charles agrees to let the boys look around his jet plant, where they discover Robert Sbeghen, the mad scientist, who is working on his more advanced rocket ship, the motto of which is, The Faster You Go, The Faster You'll Get There. As they look at one Class Prophecy—continued of the panels in the rocket ship, they see four dangling feet, belonging to Reno Mancini and Aldo Magnani, the two monkeys. (Grease monkeys, that is.) After their tour through the plant, they decide it is time they were leaving for home. After all, it has been a big job trying to look up their old friends. On their way home they meet the last three of their classmates, Ruth Lajeski, Pat Senyk, and Angeline Mauro, who are walking around in a daze trying to figure out how they managed to fit fifty-nine people into this imaginative creation.
