Mr. Bowersox’s plans were the most unusual. He wanted to become a black baseball player. Miss Hamilton barely missed her career goals. She wanted to become a nuclear physicist or a brain surgeon, to win the Boston Marathon, and to dance with Rudolf Nureyev. Mr. Money wanted to goof off, but instead chose a life of drudgery as an Industrial Arts teacher. Not Pictured Alan Freeman Band College: Pikeville, B.S.
