Class Prophecy In the spring of 1965 Mr. and Mrs. Leakey decided to take a trip, so they went to the airport to get their tickets. At the window they were told that their flight wouldn't be in for a while. Mr. and Mrs. Leakey went to the news stand and bought some papers and magazines to read. Mrs. Leakey opened the paper and whose name did she see? Carrol Hunt, one of the gradu- ating Class of 19555 Carrol had just broken a record for shooting down six jets in one day. Some shooting! Af last the plane arrived and as they started to enter, Grace Davis met them at the door of the plane. Grace had just saved nine people in a plane crash a week ago. Mr. and Mrs. Leakey were seated and the pilot came back to assure the passengers of a smooth flight. The pilot was, of all people, Shirley Poore, another member of the Class of 1955. Someday Shirley hopes to have a plane of his own--when he saves enough money. Everything went smoothly, so Mrs. Leakey settled back to read her mag- azine. On the cover it said HMathematical Genius, Daniel Werkin .N That name rang a bell. Oh, yes, he was in the Class of 1955 too. The article told how Dan's new formula determined nhow high is up and how far down is down.H Dan is quoted as saying he owed it all to a teacher he once had in high school, Mr. Ray Pierce. The Leakeys changed planes in Denver. After saying goodby to Shirley and Grace, they went on a tour of the city. Soon they saw a big sign in the distance that said UThe MMM Ranch, Marvin M. Matne owner.U Marvin is a- nother member of that great Class of 1955. He won the ranch on a quiz pro- gram, WCrack the Safe.U The next day they continued their travel by plane. They were seated by two gentlemanly looking sailors. why, the two gobs were from Jimtown, Bill Atkinsonand Charles Green. These two boys, men now, have become very well known for their good deeds. Charlie has just designed an atomic powered battleship. He got interested in that line of work from his mechanical draw- ing class. Bill Atkinson just flew a new rocket to the moon and was the first person to set foot on the moon, claiming it as a possession of the U.S When the Leakeys arrived in Hollywood, they took a cab to the best ho- tel in the city. By this time night had fallen. As they finished theirdin- ner in the hotel dining room, the floor show had just began. The master of ceremonies introduced the star of the show, nMr. Robert Lee--not Brown. not Jones, but Smith, the world's greatest comedian.N Mrs. Leakey remembered when Bob kept the kids laughing in class quite a bit. Now Bob really was do- ing what he liked to do best. After the show he came over and talked with Mr. and Mrs. Leakey. He said he had heard from some of the kids and Sgg McKee Cnow Mrs. Jon De Vallb just a few weeks ago. Sue and her husband were nrospecters for uranium in Canade where they had made a couple of finds. Mr. and Mrs. Leakey then left California en route to Florida by plane. On arriving at Miami they took a taxi to the Ocean Shore Hotel. in the eve- ning they went for a stroll and they shopped for a bathing suit, because Mrs. Leakey had failed to pack one. Before them was a sign WAnne's Swim- ming Suits.U They entered the shop and Anne Wilkinson, another classmate of 1955, greeted them. Anne had won fame by designing a swin suit that made thin girls look like Marilyn Monroe and heavy girls look like Jane Russell. Mrs. Leakey got her suit and said goodby to Anne. As soon as she left, Anne ran to the telephone and called Billy Joe Disbro and asked him to get -in touch with Mrs. Leakey at her hotel. Billy Joe, is also from the Class of 1955, he is now the owner of a big television station in Miami. They left Miami bv boat via the Potomac River and Washington, D. C., where they toured the city. They noticed a lady who looked familiar-1 Sure- ly enough, it was Linda Heiser, of the Class of 1955, who was now senator Heiser from Indiana. She was trying to get a bill through to help the schools, Linda told Mrs. Leakey to go to the White House and ask for the veterinarian and she would be surprised to find out who he was. In a little while Mrs. Leakey found her way to the veterinarian's hospital where Egg Sebring was performing an operation on one of the President's favorite ani- mals. Bob greeted her, and after the operation was finished, told her how he got the job. They chatted until it was time for the Leakeys to leave Washington. They said that they were pleased with their trip and the wonder ful Class of 1955. 10
