Class Prophecy After fifteen years, the senior class of '55 of McClure High School finally got together and had a class reunion. As I entered the door, I became doubtful that I would meet anyone whom I would recognize. But luck was with me, for Ihad not walked very far before I encountered an attractive woman whom Irecogniz- zed immediately as Marlene Johnson. While talking to her, I learned she is now happily married to Jim Graf, and they have four wonderful children. As we continued talking a bou t the many happy memories we have had in our school days, a very distinguished looking man came to us and started talking. Why, it's Jim Ashbaugh , th e re c e nt Do n K e lly , the world - wide famous Jitterbugerl l-le flew out here from Hollywood, California, a nd is now making pictures with Marilyn Monroe. M.G.M. has voted him as the Great Lover of the Movie Screen As I continued my tour through the large crowd, I heard a loud commotion, and moving near to investigate, I caught sight of Connie Pope talking to a group of people. Asleavesdropped, I heard her telling about the latest i n hair styles. She was demonstrating on Janet McClure, her last name is Kerwin now, naturally. She and Rog have the most beautiful home just outside McClure, Ohio. Oh yes, Connie has just returned from Paris. She has been making a study on the recent hair styles in Europe. I wa nd e re d around and found myself staring a t a nice -looking lady sitting over there on the sofa. Why, it's Maxine Shufelt! She is telling me she's head of the Nurses Training Staff ata hospital in San Francisco, California. Remember how bashful Vivian Lanzer was in high school? Well, she has changed quite alot. She is head ofa well - known literary society in New York City. As I stood there debating whether that was Mary Gustwiller, a tall man came to me and introduced himself as Dick Pollom, He is still as Yummy as he used to be in high school. He told me he has taken up the study of ministry and is head of the Council of Churches in Munick, Germany. l-le is not married yet, but he says he hopes to be in the near future when the right one comes along. Dick told me that Mary Gustwiller was standing across the room with her five children fall boysj. And she is living with her husband on a farm west of Napoleon. I left Dick and rushed over to Bob Armstrong , who is in an Army uniform. He said he was in the engineering field and is making a career of the Army. Over there is Robert Blair. And brother is he ever dressed upl He just came from Wa shington , D. C . and is running for President of the United States. He has a fairly good chance of winning. fl-le claimsj. Having accounted for the entire class of '55, I must return to my home in Miami, Florida. I am so inspired by the renewal of pleasant memories that I am going to have the most e njoya ble trip home, where I will continue my elementary teaching. Carlyn Behnfeldt 14
