Class Prophecy The Class of 1949 met this week for a reunion. It was discovered that every member of the class has been remark- ably successful in his or her chosen career. In view of this fact Mr. Wood felt that the accomplishments of the class should be published as a goal and inspiration to students now in high school. Here are the heights to which the Class of 1949 has risen. Diane James and Geraldine Thomp- son have gone on the stage. Not long ago they appeared at the Palace The- atre. Diane assisted a trained seal in his act and Gerry acted as understudy to the chief curtain puller. Ralph Tanner was always very ac- tive in athletics in high school. He has made them his career and is doing quite well. Ralph is head ping-pong coach at a girls’ school in Cleveland. Evelyn Norton and Earleen Reusch are in the transportation business. While Evelyn drives the truck Earleen sleeps and vice versa. Bob Holmes is in Hollywood. “Clem” plays cowboy parts. He is known as “Creep-a-long Holmes,” the slowest hombre west of the Atlantic Ocean. But as ‘“Creep-a-long” puts it, ‘Where I'm goin’ I ain't in no hurry.” Jacklyn Duck has settled down to a quiet life as a wife and mother. At first she had hoped that her children could form a basketball team. Later it seemed more logical that they should play baseball. Now she is looking for a foot- ball coach. Bob Blackburn and John Havens are doing quite well in New York as mod- els. They have appeared recently as the twins in a “Which one has the Toni “ad: (Bob: had the Toni,) Betty McGarvey is coaching an all girl football team. She had earned quite a reputation for herself as a full- back but injuries forced her to retire. Her best player is Joyce Barth. This, however, is only temporary as Joyce has a trick knee and no one knows how long she will last. One of the foremost women authors in the country is Bette Young. Her widely read novel “Forever Bette” has just been banned in Boston. Bob Viergutz was recently elected mayor of Lafayette. He was known as the ‘babies’ choice.” He should be; he kissed enough of them. Donna Norton is now with Ringling Bros. Circus. As a sword swallower she has made a tremendous success in the freak show. Dorothy Hastings has obtained an excellent position in law enforcement. She is chief bouncer at John’s Place. Chuck “Wrong Way” Farnsworth has made a fortune posing for the Vaseline hair ads. He manages a mod- el agency as a sideline. Every month his models appear on the covers of such widely read magazines as “Breeder's Gazette’’ and “Live Stock Growers’ Journal.” Eva Indoe is just completing her first term as the first woman president of the United States. At last report the House of Representatives was in quite a dither. Her campaign platform advo- cated Prohibition, higher taxes, and men.
