class ppophecy There are many lands from here to heaven but only Seniorland will be made of the class of fifty-seven. Eleven years from now in nineteen hundred and sixty-eight This you might see as the hand of fate. As we walk down Future Ambition Street, It's LeRoy Timmermann whom we first meet Who rules as Admiral of The Bath Tub Fleet. 'Tis Kenny Knight whom next we met who is known in this land as the barnyard vet. Among those in the class who really rates Is great old Gary the Gunnersmate. As we walk on down to the edge of town. We see Charles Betts plowing his ground. While over the hill removing a tick, We see the hick known as sheepherder Dick. While on the way back, the school house we pass And see Miss Joan teaching her class. On a bill board we noticed a harry old villian, A master piece painted by the great Linda McMillan. Martha, the gal who has always had nerve Is now commander of the naval reserve. As we pass the building that houses the press We see Josie in the midst of a mess. Next we see Gail the old lady of the shoe Who has so many children she doesn't know what to do. Not only is Ronna teaching business in school But is having a ball chasing men as a rule. Professor McEwen of the Foreign Exchange Didn't get to travel 'cuz she ran out of change. To end the history of this class prophecy We see Janet, head chemist, of a famous laboratory. class motto class colors CLASS flOWCR He that builds beneath the stars builds too low.
