S E N I O R C L A S S P R 0 P H E C Y The time: 1965, the placeg New Winchester, the event, a reunion of the class of '5?.' nSay,n we wondered, nwhatever happened to that class of l9S6?n None of us seemed to know anything about that class except that BOB WEB- STER had become a professor at Palomar Observatory in California. Bob had just invented a vldeo-scope, a gadget which could show any person ln any part of the world and show where he was and what he was dolng. Perhaps Bob could ntune-ln' on everyone and help us out. With this thought in mind, we climbed into our jet and took of to see California and Bob. Sure enough, Bob said he would be glad to put his new invention to work. Turning a few knobs and pushing a few buttons, he finally got a picture on the screen--not too clear at first, but finally getting better--and there was JACKIE MENDENHALL. Jackie Is driving race cars now. He won the 500 and re- ceived the wlnner's kiss from Marilyn Monroe. He liked it so well, he's going to try lt again next year. We asked Bob lf he could flnd the Barlow girls. JANICE lsn't very far from home. She is making history at Indiana Unlverslty by being the first girl center to make the varsity squad! JANE, of course, has become Mrs. Norman Headrlck and ls living ln Florida. She has been blessed with two children. JEAN, or Mrs. Kelly, is living in California: she and Roland are operating a chain of grocery stores. Speaking of stores reminded us of MARILYN STEELE. Where ls Marilyn? The vldeo-scope screen showed us that Marilyn has put her early girl-hood train- lng to good use and is now manager of Macy's Department Store ln New York City, New York. nWhere,' we asked, His LARRY CREECH?n Well, for Heaven's sakel Larry is married to Barbara Hutton and living a life of ease and luxury, the both of them slnglng all day long. LINDA OWENS came to our minds next. The vldeo-scope showed that Linda has married Mike Garrison and ls living in Boston where she and Mike operate a huge inter-state trucking system. The stork has left them two girls and two boys. We found out that MERRILL CHURCH ls really making a name for himself. He has become an expert paratrooper, and his one ambition is to make the Jump from another planet and land on Earth. WILMA ROBINSON really surprised us. She has become the wlfe of Tommy Manvllle, and the two of them are operating a chicken farm ln France. The vldeo-scope next brought In the proving grounds of General Motors. There we saw ROBERT YORK. He is testing transmissions and just canlt flnd one that will hold up. Next, we saw all the glitter and glamour that belongs to Hollywood! Right in the midst, we found BARBARA FRITSCHE. Barbara is now a secretary to the biggest producer in Hollywood. The scene next changed to a dairy farm in Minnesota. ALLEN RUSSELL is the owner, making 550,000.00 a year, but he hopes he will be able to quit the dairy business soon because there lsn't enough money in lt. The next view on the screen looked like a ball park. It was, and we saw WAYNE BLANTON pitching for the New York Yankees. Wayne is the highest pald pitcher In the history of the Yankees-- 875,000.00 a year. Next, no saw a big college, 'Harvardn, the sign said. The vldeo-scope showed us the campus and one of the large science buildings. What name should we see on one of the office doors, but BOB THOMPSON. He is the assistant science professor at Harvard during the day and plays cornet with the Lawrence welk Champagne Orchestra on television at night. As the vldeo-scope 'paned' around the country, we found LA VERA MCCOY. La Vera ls selling mink coats and even has her own mlnk farm. CAROLYN HAVERLY next came into vlew. Carolyn has graduated from college and has married Vaughn Kurtz. Carolyn ls a member of the Floradora girls? sextet and is appearing quite regularly on television. The vldeo-scope next showed a medical center. SUE SMITH could be plalnly seen helping the patients recover by using varlous therapies. Sue is doing a wonderful job. We thanked Bob Webster for having found everyone for us. We hopped back into our jet and came home, glad to know that all the members of the class of 'SS-56' have found their places in the world. 17.
