L... V 'Mx CLASS PROPHECY Marlene Blicka acts as our guide to show us this super duper Brain Factory. We decide to take the escalator to the sixth floor and begin our tour where all activities are held. As we approach it. we hear the melodious refrains sung by Hot Canary , alias Virginia Bleakley, and Lungs Bowker, who, in our days. was known as just plain Robert . Hurrying around making preparations for the evening's TV performance are Director Al Boser and Wardrobe mistress Ianet Bon- ham. After being flagged out of the room we peal over to the next room which sounds like the Indianapolis Speedway. which is just what it is. Zooming around the track are such aces as Al Bold, Dick Bonacker, and Tom Bradley. Next we enter the huge ballroom where the acts of the Variety Show for the afternoon program are rehearsing. Looking over the line-up we see Toes Brooks, who is munching a hunk of celery to keep her weight down for her ballet dancing. Lounging on the sofa, resting for her performance is Martha Braun, the great dramatic star. PAGE 2D Virginia Bleakley No gems, no gold she needs to wear, she shines intrinsically fair. Albert Bold The man that loves and laughs must surely do well. Richard Bonacker He hath borne himself beyond the promise of his age, doing, in the figure of a lamb, the feats of a lion. lanet Bonam Always smiling, always gay, fun and loving in every way. Allen Boser Rushing here rushing there: what a busy boy. Robert Bowker A man polished to the nail. Thomas Bradley Be merry, if you are wise. Martha Braun Few persons have courage enough to appear as good as they really are. Ann Louise Brooks The dimple the chin contains has beauty in its rounds.

Hugh Blakley A good sport both in sports and everyday life. Gloria Blase Whatever is worth doing at all. is worth doing well. CLASS PROPHECY As we enter the gates of knowledge, our feet sink in lush crimson carpets: our eyes wander from side to side and finally rest on a golden plaque which reads Remember the Class of '55. One of the many hostesses employed by the Board of Education directs us to the Grille which lzas now been established for the purpose of giving students a pickup for the next class. Behind the counter are Lucille Babb and Rita Babbish who volunteer their services to supply students with that get up and go . lust as we start to down a cherry smash, we are tapped on the shoulder and a bright flash blinds us, It's Jian Bellitt, who has been selected by the reunion committee to snap the informal shots of our classmates. He points out Mary lane Annuzzi and Connie Alvino, who are the proud owners of a Paris Fashion Salon. Entering for a smash we see live people in white coats. Oh, oh I guess this is it! What a relief! It's only Bob Bauman, Marilyn Baker, Hugh Blaklcy, Carol Barber and Gloria Blase, who run the 5B clinic, which is situated on the ground floor to aid students for what ails them. PAGE I9

WH A .-if-it CLASS PROPHECY Why, there's Gene Chieffo, famous conductor of the Boston Symphony Or- chestra. l'm glad he became such a famous person after all his hard work. Would you look at those padded chairs that fill the ballroom! We certainly were born ten years too late. Watching the rehearsal with us are Ioe Brown, famous amateur radio ace and Kalina Callow, United States representative to the Women's Olympic games being held in Germany this year. Say, isn't that Walter Campbell and Loretta Caruso standing over there? Hear tell Walter is now a hair stylist and Loretta his assistant. After a little chit-chat we move to another room, a combin- ation TV-Pool room. Imagine that! Say, there's some of our old classmates enjoying the lounge chairs. Hi. Carol, Robert, and Dick.
