We are sorry that DEBBIE CUPPERNELL cannot be with us tonight. Debbie finds it difficult to find a sitter for her 13 children. KAREN DODGE brought her pottery pieces to the reunion to exhibit. She has become a pottery professor specializing in ''Butch” pots. BOB DRURY, formerly Mr. America, is strutting through the party displaying his magnificent physique. Look at that profile. Wow! TERRY DWYER gallops in on his old gold mustang with his ten-gallon hat looking all the Weiler” for Cathy. KAREN FITZGERALD could not attend the reunion. It seems that Karen and her Stevey bogart” were bushed wacked by some Burr heads along the Niger River while sailing along in her African Queen. TIM FITZ PATRICK has given up his bedpan practice to become full time drum major for the new Lawrence Welk Marching Band. His first appearance will be in the St. Patty's Day Parade in New York City. I guess that you know best, Tim. EDRIS GIFFORD saunters in on her horse-drawn buggy. She is strumming her guitar and singing, In Heaven There is No Beer!!! JOHN GOSIER just streaked by!!! MIKE HARE is in the far corner, entertaining. Mike has a new act. He plays a magician but still can't pull the rabbit out of the hat! MEG HEWITT could not make the party. Meg is the chief editor of a large newspaper in Chicago. She is busy with the top scoop of the year, Preacher for President! NATHAN LARKIN could not attend either because he is quite busy with his campaign for the Presi- dency. If Nate wins the election, he will inaugurate himself. We are quite grieved that CONNIE MITCHELL is not in our presence. Connie befell a terrible accident last year. While practicing her trumpet she mistakenly picked up a moose horn and was stampeded by a herd of love-sick Mooses. Meeses? LORI MOUNT, once nurse to President Nixon, was reduced to nurse’s aide at the Russian front. Ever since the Bug Lori has been busy. JO ANN (Boom Boom) REED is dancing for us tonight. Boom Boom is an infamous exotic dancer in the Belly Room in Three Mile Bay. There she goes now! DEBBIE RUST is behind the refreshments table. We had Deb's Delightful Delicacies cater our party. Maybe we’ll get a discount. CHERYL SMITH has been married five times and is now employed by the International Society of Bach- elors as a secretary. GAIL SVENDSEN could not join us tonight. Since the fall of '74, Gail has made the Navy her life, well . . . that is, except for shore leave!!! JIM TRAINHAM is a very successful electrician. His biggest project was rewiring the White House. CHRISTINE VAN ALSTYNE is a hard-working career girl. Christine works for the Playboy Club in L. A. If Christine and Mike Hare could get their acts together, then maybe Mike could finally pull that rabbit out of his hat. ELLA VAN ALSTYNE has become a full time mother and housewife. She is a waitress and plays the piano for the church. No wonder she and Jimmy don't have any children. Ho Ho!!! KATHY VAN NESS is the belle of the ball in the evening gown she designed especially for this occa- sion. She is well-to-do, with her modeling agency and designer shop. DONALD WHITMORE is at a basketball game tonight. Don was accepted as token waterboy for the Har- lem Globe Trotters. Heh, heh, heh, big Donny!! DAN WISEMAN is the life of the party just like back in English 12 R. Danny's wit is as sharp as a meat cleaver and as spicey as hot sausage. Don't let your meat loaf, Dan!! 21

In the fall of 1971 our Sophomore class advisor was again Mr. Buck. Our class officers were: President, Nathan Larkin: Vice President, Terry Dwyer; Secretary, Lori Mount; Treasurer, Marget Hewitt. Our Stu- dent Council Representative was Terry Dwyer. Back again as Juniors with Miss Southard as our advisor, our class officers were: President, Nathan Lar- kin, Vice President, Connie Mitchell: Secretary, Lori Mount; Treasurer, Marget Hewitt. Our Student Council Representatives were: Timothy FitzPatrick and Robert Drury. We are now Seniors, 29 members strong. Miss Southard is again our class advisor.

Over the past four years we have had such activities as fudge sales, bake sales, dances, record hops, candy bar sales, a VERY successful Donkey Basketball game, a successful Prom, a great magazine sale, the sale of refreshments at basketball games, a stationery sale, the sale of individual school pictures, the publication of the 1974 Ontarion, and our Senior Trip to Washington, D.C. We also had Saturday afte noon movies and a pancake breakfast. During the last four years we have been privileged to have with us at one time or another: Deborah Kearney, Natalie Horton, Milford Haas, Eric Haas, Clifford Sweet, Terry Davis, Marty Mathieu, Helen Mathieu, and Kim Horton. Class Ptophecy The year is ten years after our graduation, 1984. We picked this year because we, the Class of '74, wanted to be together once more before the world collapses. Our reunion is being held in the new, thoroughly modern gymnasium of our old Alma Mater. FRANCES ALLEN arrives late. Frances is the secretary of a business tycoon in L. A., so it is hard for her to get away. JUDY ALLEN, having been awaiting the arrival of her famous sister, has been making the rounds. Judy is no longer the quiet, resigned girl we knew in our high school days. KAREN BERKMAN is seen cruising the scene inquiring of everyone in sight if they could give her the correct directions to Crystal Lake. Just what is so interesting there anyway? CATHY BEST has established herself in the wide world of medicine. Cathy has spent the last five years working on a remedy for the common cold. It’s known as BEST’S BETTER COLD CURE. TRINA COMINS has made her mark in the ever-constant strive for women's equality. Trina is the head foreman, correction, forewoman, of a huge eastern power and electric company. Shock it to 'em. BRIAN CUPPERNELL is seated at the bar, telling tales of his trapping and hunting excursions. He is very well-known in the North Country, especially for his technique in the art of capturing skunks by their hind feet. Brian used to do this in high school, but there wasn't too much success. Whew! 20
