CLASS PROPHECY While traveling from Tailholt to Manlius in our borrowed (as usual) car, we met a 1950 green Ford, which looked familiar. As we neared the oncoming car, we could tell at a glance that it was Smitty and her five girls. Sure enough, she hadn't forgotten the old gang. Their names were Barbara, Pat Elaine, Patsy Sue, Sylvia, and Dolores. After leaving her children in Mineral, we three journeyed on seeking to find the whereabouts of the class of '53. We decided to make our first stop at good old M.H.S. As we entered the school, we made our way toward the gym where we could hear the sounds of a pep session. We heard the familiar yell, Yeah Coach, Yeah Lickhart. This didn't surprise us because Bill had been the star athlete of the Class of 53 . While talking to Bill, we learned that another of our classmates had a position at M.H.S., none-other than Louie Reed. He had worked his way to the top position as principal. While reminiscing old times , we asked the whereabouts of some of our classmates. They told us that Kate Brown had become a great scientist. We knew that the Science Award which she had received during our last year at Manlius would encourage her to be a great scientist . They told us that Charles Satterfield had become a general in the Army. They also told us that Shirley Krager was running a Beauty Shop downtown. Time was flying so we left the school. While walking down the walk, we saw a big semi truck coming down the road. The truck started honking, we glanced at the name and it was one of Burke's Transfers with none other than Myrna Heuer driving. Myrna always did like Burke's trucks. When we got downtown, we stopped in to chat with Shirley for awhile. While we were sitting there, we were so busy chatting about old times that we didn't notice that the television was on until we heard a familiar voice. Yes, it was none other than Bob Cooksey. We thought we knew all his jokes, but much to our surprise, he had a few new ones. His $64 question was, how to get kicked out of class so many times and stay in school. The sponsor of the show was another of our classmates, Patsy Hurley, who was advertising her famous Argyle Socks. Patsy had some experience at this when she was in high school. All at once the program was interrupted, and a police flash came on the screen. Two men had just eluded a police road-block and were believed to be hiding in or around the neighborhood of Manlius, New Bedford, and Thomas. On the screen appeared the pictures of Don Killer Mueller, and Lyle Lefty Neahring. They were wanted for stealing chickens from Marlow Snider Drayton's Chicken Heaven. This didn't surprise us as we knew they were members of the class of 53 . Time was flying, as usual, and as we were bidding Shirley good-by, another classmate Audrey Pierson came in. We were surprised when she told us she had an exclusive dress shop in New York and happened to be in Manlius while on a buying trip. She said she was visiting Mrs. Don Hotchkiss, the former Irma Dabler. After saying good-by we were getting in the car when three nurses came down the street. They were Barb Johnson, Dolores Croegaert, and Pat Dabler. This did seem like old times—the six of us together again. It was noon so we decided to eat lunch together, as the nurses had the afternoon off and the three of us had all day. As we were talking and deciding where to go to eat, they told us there was a new and exclusive restaurant in Tampico, and so to Tampico we went. While driving to Tampico we saw a sign advertising Etheridges Kennels . This was no surprise because we knew Dean's greatest ambition, to raise 'Coon Dogs', came true. When we arrived in Tampico we saw this huge, elaborate restaurant. As we were eating a delicious lunch, a woman appeared in furs. We did not recognize her at first glance although she must have recognized us. As we were talking to her, we learned it was Pat Batten, nee Pat Johnson, who was the owner of this restaurant. While talking to Pat, we asked her the whereabouts of Marilyn and she informed us that Marilyn was a nurse in Dixon
