CLASS PROPHECY I9 4 As I walk through this hall of fame I see many 74's have made their name. Pat Caldwell's sewing for the Queen of Spain She sews all day long with a lot of strain, Her clothes are the finest in all the land And even her 13 kids look quite grand. Mark Heater's fame a game warden he 's become It's no wonder with all the hunting he's done, He protects the animals and their young From hunters like he was, for years to come. Melodie Delzell is here I see She's a driving specialist which is hard to be, She teaches you how to stay on the road, Avoiding ditches and being towed. Now is Monte Delzell a cousin of Mel's He's making cars for his sons to sell, It's because of these cars that he's made his fame For they're the only car around with the Delzell name. Appearing as a farmer's Wife is Elaine Carlson now Who helps her husband pasture the cows, From the looks of their position they've put up quite a battle For they own half the cattle from New York to Seattle. In a conference with the pitcher I've seen Joe Niles The public was roaring and going wild, The batter struck out, the crowd gave a cheer joe was named then, the coach of the year. Beth Griffith made her name in this world She thought she'd give her dad's job a whirl, She worked quite hard through snow and rain And now the first lady post mistress is her fame. The mayor'll be in conference soon He's the honorable mayor, Billy Coon, Soon he'll be running for re-election With his last year's platform of self-protection. Judy Sands is a professional golfer She's Won many tournaments which isn't a wonder, She's got her own club called the The Hole In One And it's in her golfing town of ole Morning Sun. Bruce McClure, wrestler of the year Has been shedding many a tear, He could have been another Dan Gable If he hadn't forgotten to push away from the table. If you happen to be flying the friendly skies And see a small shapely girl with dark brown eyes, An ex-waitress of jack's is ole Rhonda Kay Who invites you to fly with her, up, up and away. Banichek Springsteen is out on guard If he's not on duty he's seen mowing a yard, He keeps the minors from getting stung For he remembers how he was when he was young. Connie Ledbetter is a mother of five She Works very hard to keep them alive, She washes and irons, sews and does dishes To keep the kids happy and off their leashes. Drew Cooley's picture I have seen It's featured in Playgirl magazine, It's quite a picture I ve heard told I-Ie wears a great big smile and looks quite bold. Roxanne Wheeler's a bank President Her goal is to run the United States mint, She's made quite a formne in this bank of hers For she owns over 100 valuable furs. Mark Strawhacker's a basketball star You can see by his position he 's gone quite far, I-lis teams never lost for 300 games And star Strawhacker is now in the Hall of Fame. The most famous nursing home under the sun Is owned and run by Mel Johnson, She's got hundreds of patients and they're all quite proud To live in her home away from the crowd. Out doing the chores is farmer Mills He owns a lot of land with a lot of hills He uses this land to raise thousands of hogs And he keeps them in line with 33 dogs. 7 There's a famous restaurant known round the earth And it's all because of one man's birth, If it wasn't for Sheldon there 'd a been no way For people to know of Wolfe's Cafe. We 've got one more left and it's not surprising It's Dana Lu Kellogg and she 's supervising, She's on the farm telling her Dad how it's done Growing the best yielding crops under the sun. We 'Ve .seen them all now, it wasn't a big class I suppose that's the reason they all managed to pass, But they've accomplished much and established their name In the Class of '74 , Senior Hall of Fame.

In Loving Memor Jennifer Lynn Hostetter We cover thee, sweet face. Not that we tire of thee, But that thyself fatigue of us, Remember, as thou flee, We follow thee until Thou notice us no more, And then, reluctant, turn away To con thee o'er and o'er, And blame the scanty love We were content to show, Augmented, sweet, a hundred fold If thou would'st take it now. . . .Class of 74
