We advise ROBERT HORNING to appear on the Ed Sullivan show as Cassius Clay and do his thing. We advise BILL JACKSON to become a chemist. Uh - would you believe an assistant chemist? We advise GERRY KOVALIK to become a gun fighter with the nickname The Gunner. We advise LAURIE LANCE to become a professional bowler. With her ability to put the ball in the pocket she should do well. We advise DAVE MOUNT to stop throwing pennies in the wishing well. We advise DENNIS O'NEILL to stop watching the girls and start watching his driving. We advise DEB RUSSELL to buy a white Volkswagen. Then she and Dee could organize a group called the Volkswagen Varmints. We advise PHIL STUMPF to become a bull fighter and wear green. We advise RON WALKER to become fat and ugly. The way he is now he breaks too many hearts. We advise BECKY WHATTAM to gain fame as an advice columnist, Dear Becky, and solve all the problems at L.C.S. Class Will I, JOHN ALBERRY, leave my ability to manage sports to anyone who wants it. I, DAN ANDREWS, leave my locker full of old books to anyone who thinks that he can clean it out. I, TIM CALLAHAN, leave my ability to get into and out of trouble to Debbie Conroy. I know that she will put it to good use. I, PHIL CHEAL, leave my sideburns to Peggy Beck, my mustache to Debbie Munk, and my beard to Mr. Brown. I, TERRY COUNTRYMAN, leave my position on Student Council to Debbie Steverson. I hope she puts it to better use than I did. 1, KATHY CROUSE, leave my unblemished record of never having been on detention to the whole school. Now maybe everyone can go home early. I, ALAN CUPPERNELL, leave nothing to anyone. I, MERLE CUMMINGS, leave the worn tires of my Yamaha to anyone who can find a use for them. 1, STEVE DODGE, leave the awesome task of being the school's hot rod to Bill Ma- tice. He can do wonders with that little Bridgestone. I, LEE DRURY, leave my playboy ability to Vernon Davis, who will probably do more with it than 1 did. I, CRAIG FULMER, leave my driving ability on my powerhouse Honda and Boaski to Dwight Goutremout, who has had practice on his little machine. I, GERRY HAAS, leave my ability to drive to Greg Hubbard. I, WILLARD HAAS, leave my ability to do a math problem that baffles everyone else to my sister Nancy. I, PETER HILLS, leave my seat on the vocational bus to any Junior. I, RICHARD HORNING, leave my impeccable attendance record and my astounding scholastic record to Bob Taylor, who will probably be kicked out of school for trying to keep up with me. I, ROBERT HORNING, leave my ability to insult anyone at any time about anything to Robbin Johnson with the hope that she will put it to good use. 20

Thirty years after its glorious graduation, the Class of '70 is holding its reunion in the ballroom of the New Crescent Yacht Club, which now covers an area of about 50 acres along the shores of Chaumont Bay. JOHN ALBERRY arrives in his brand new VW bus. He has now taken over the vice- president's office at the New York Air Brake. We estimate his salary at $82, 000, and we hope he keeps climbing. DAN ANDREWS arrives with smoking tires and a blaring engine. His new high- powered 2, 000 Dodge is a real mover on street and strip. He has taken over the title of National Hobby and Drag Champion. TIM CALLAHAN comes in with his pockets full of the long green. He has made his mark by buying the whole chain of Treadway Inns. PHIL CHEAL comes in a Standard Dry Ale truck and is the life of the party. TERRY COUNTRYMAN arrives in a $40, 000 Rolls Royce, followed by thousands of screaming teenagers. He has become rich and famous after the release of his well- known hit song Codine which tells it like it is. KATHY CROUSE is now a famous chemist. She announces that she has invented a peace potent which she plans to use on Russia. MERLE CUMMINGS, who now owns the biggest farm in New York State, has in- vented a breed of small cows, which will be very handy for fresh milk while you're on a long trip. AL CUPPERNELL, who now owns all of the Chaumont forest, will have to leave early so that he can check his traps. STEVE DODGE arrives with flashing lights blazing and siren and horn blaring. He has become Commander-in-Chief of the Chaumont Police Force. Chaumont now has 76, 000 people, and he is kept busy stopping riots. LEE DRURY unfortunately could not make the reunion. His Air Force career has taken him all the way to a distant star, and he isn't expected back for at least two days.
