CLASS PROPHECY TIME: 1970 PLACE: Battis Field, AA.H.S. SETTING: Living room of a large ant hill, where a group of ants are discussing the accomplishments of the members of the fajmous Class of ' 60. FIRST ANT: Time certainly does fly. Why, it seems like just yesterday that they were yelling and stamping right upon us on the football field. I can ' t remember a class that could shake our walls as much as they could. SECOND ANT: I ' ve heard that some of the best players are coaching. Bill Caswell, Richard Allen, Denny Fin- neran, and Jim Smith are now preparing teams that will completely demolish our little ant hills all over again. THIRD ANT: My cousin, Hepzibah ant, who owns that new split-level ant hill between the Junior High and Elementary School, told me that she saw Sally Anne Dunlea, Betty Mercer, Marjorie Kinsman, Grace Mc- Nearney, Yvonne McNeice, and Anne Boucher conduct- ing classes for the future members of M.H.S. It seems as though the annual Music Festival is again in Middle- boro, and Betty Bois, Patty Maranville, Cynthia Teeling, and Karl At nburg are conducting their own high school bands. Most every ant hill in the area was ruined when the bands assembled together to play a series of Jazz marches by the famed conductor, James A. Fardy. FOURTH ANT: I hitched a ride into town yesterday in Richard Moskoff ' s slow wheels. He was on his way to the new super market, Foodarama. I saw quite a few of the members of the Class of ' 60 shopping there. I guess that class really sticks together. As I entered, I saw Jeanne Stuart checking out and Janice Grishey shopping for her family. I ' ve never seen such a beau- tiful store; Ronald Keith was responsible for the de- sign. Working with him were Edward Gerrior and James Maloof, who invented a push-button dial selec- tion system of shopping. There was a large crowd milling around the drug counter. Everyone was anxious to buy Everett Lacerda ' s new wonder drug, which is a new medicine with the slogan, No hurta with La- cerda. Nurse Harriet Hopkins was demonstrating the benefits derived from the marvelous pain killer. I had to leave by the back door because it was so crowded. Lined up outside was the dairy truck from Richard Dainis ' , Leonard Condon ' s, and Anthony Pattee ' s milk farms. FIRST ANT: New businesses are certainly flourishing under the management of the Class of ' 60. Remember that new beauty center next to the food store? On the first floor in the men ' s department was Gerald Marshall, introducing barber shop basketball. The second floor consisted of hairdressers and beauticians. Gail Lewis, Anne Gillis, Pat Pina, Ann Taylor, and Sheila Walsh were lazily working in the hairdressing department while beauty advisers Laura Wright, Elizabeth Prescott, Joan Minnick, Judy Wright, Linda Guidaboni, and San- dra Howard were discussing the various problems of their customers. On the third floor I came across Edna Eccleston and Martha Wilmot modeling a wardrobe de- signed by Claudette Cameron. Fashion artists Patricia Maddigan and Sherrill Flanders were deeply engrossed in catalogue designing so I was able to pass by un- noticed. Vivian Beuthner was lining up the fabrics for the new fall collection. Walking through the waiting room, I noticed a magazine cover illustrated by Harold Elliott. A new short story by prize-winning writer Donna Gangone was featured in that particular issue. THIRD ANT: It ' s not just around Middleboro that the Class of ' 60 has congregated. Why, my uncle, Toby Termite, who has been traveling most of his life in the parasite profession, says he ' s encountered many mem- bers of the class in all corners of the world. Just the other month Roddy Berry almost stepped on fiim while boarding a plane in Afghanistan. While busily dictat- ing diplomatic notes to his secretary, Martha Tinsley, 28

he almost neglected to notice airline hostesses Donna Falconeiri, Marie Vinal, and the pilot, Frank Robinson. Last year during my summer vacation I visited my aunt, Eskimo Ant, in Alaska. Five members of the Class of ' 60 have organized a monopoly on the timber and fur industries. Forest experts John Harrison, Joseph AAack- iewicz, Lawrence Pink, and John Burke along with fur millionaire Stephen Battis have brought the name of AAiddleboro above the Arctic Circle. Flying back to San Francisco hidden in a brief case, I managed to peek out and see airline hostesses AAarcia Wing and Carol Tanguay trying to calm the passengers as we flew through a storm. However, we landed safely due to the efforts of Ronald Remillard, the tower operator at the airport. Much to my surprise I found that 1 was in the brief case of Dr. Mark Gibbons, who was to be guest speak- er at the Medical Convention. His topic was Do-It-Your- self Brain Surgery. Leland Orlov was in charge of the veterinarian section. Michal Woodruff, dental hygien- ist, lectured on Chickens Have Teeth, Too. Nurses Christina Niedzwiecki and Carolyn Sukus were com- piling research information for their hospital. San Francisco harbor was full of Navy ships. Richard Bennett, Peter Stewart, Robert Jackson, Harold Caswell, William Murdock, and David Lemmo were directing secret Naval operations in the harbor, while Betty Hollis was efficiently organizing new recruits for the Waves. FIRST ANT: Did you hear those jets nearby last night? Well, my uncle, the flying ant, told me that John Cor- deiro and Anthony Nunes were trying to break the cross country flying record. Darn near caused another cave-in. That Class of ' 60 is sure active. FOURTH ANT: Yes, sir! They even control most of the Army. Generals David Demers, David Costa, Thomas Kelley, Robert Denson, and John Smith are being con- sidered as candidates for Chief of Staff. FIRST ANT: That class has people doing everything. Dr. Guy Davis of the Mount Palamar observatory has developed a new theory of relativity, working with Professors Stanwood Sparrow and Waldemar Ulich, in which they believe they have found where infinity ends. SECOND ANT: Why not! FIRST ANT: The reverends Richard Burr and Paul An- derson are now in charge of missionary activities in Uganda. They often work in collaboration with the noted psychologist Eleanor Walker. FOURTH ANT: When I was in Africa last year with the Navy, our band played at their settlement. It seemed like old times because Ronny Vaughn, Brian Green, and Robert Kingston played in the Navy Band. THIRD ANT: Well, I just came back from New York, and it seems as though the Class of ' 60 controls a good portion of Wall Street. Barry Berman, Kenneth Shaw, and Carolyn Wright were busily engaged in buying and selling companies; and Charles Smith was arranging for the purchase of a new oil refinery for his gas sta- tion chain. I saw Ann Freidenfeld, Diane DiBurgo, Peggy Du- Charme, Marie DiPalma, Sandra Williams, Rose Gisetto, Sandra Bellerive, and Marilyn Hollis planning appoint- ments for their successful young bosses. Legal secre- taries Linnea Nyberg and Jean Weygand were prepar- ing for a busy day in cotirt. FIRST ANT: The Class of ' 60 even has three world trav- elers. As far as I know, William Marzelli, Gene Turney, and Harry Washburn are still on their extended trip. SECOND ANT: I certainly hope their luck lasts. They were really a polite group. I was never stepped on by any one of them. And so as the blazing sun sets on the purple horizon of Middleboro, the sandy ant hills on Battis Field close up for the night with nary a casualty from the toes of 1960 ' s class. The insect population of M.H.S. drifts into slumber, but the illustrious Class of ' 60 goes on. 29
