Class Prophecy May 26, 1983, found all the members of the North Lima graduating class of '58 assembled in commemoration of our graduation. Since we hadn't seen each other for 25 years, we soon noticed that faces. had changed considerably, and even a few gray hairs had crept in. The place of our reunion was the fieldhouse of the new 32,000,000 North Lima School, heated and lighted by atomic power. This new school was located in a residential area west of the original North 'Lima. As I entered this fantastic building, the person I first met was BYRON EICHORN, the executive head of the North Lima School. He told me there were over 3,000 stu- dents in his school system. As I walked into the main part of the fieldhouse, the next two people I met were JUDY COOLEY and SANDRA MacFARLAND. It was here I learned that Sandra had won a 35,000 prize in a baking contest, while Judy was head of the dietetics at Ohio State University. Then joining our conversation on food was MYRN WEHR and DON BEARD. They told us how one could grow straw- berries as big as oranges on the moon. Overhearing our conversation on farming on the moon, LEONARD HINEY, TOM WINCE, and ED ARKWRICHT joined our group. Leonard, chief engineer of space and moon travel, told us about their last trip to the moon and the difficulties involved in space travel. Edward and Tom told us about their work as contractors and building rocket stations, and missile bases on this new land. As I walked on, the next persons I met were RACHEL CULP, an English teacher, and DENNIS ACKERMAN, head coach of North Lima basketball team, showing a huge trophy that his team had just won for state championship. Joining us was ARDELL COOK, head of the social studies at North Lima High School. Along with Ardell was BARBARA SCHNEIDER and PAT DAY, elementary teachers also teach- ing in the North Lima School. Connected 'with the school system in an indirect way was LINDA CRAY. She is head librarian in the Mahoning County Library System. Also speaking of food, BOB SZEWC, now owner of his own food stores, was telling us that soon a Szewc supermarket was to be built on the moon. The next two people I met were SANDY RIFFLE and LAURA MARTIN discussing nursing. Being a nurse myself, I was very interested in their conversation. Because of the epidemic of moon fever Laura had just completed giving the Green Cheese Test to every student in the Mahoning County Schools. Sandy was head of the Physical Therapists at the Mayo Clinic. Moving along, I next came to HARVEY HARTLEY and DAVE LAWLESS. Being the co-engineers of the expressways to be built in North Lima, their conversation interested me greatly. Also coming to hear the conversation were GARY HOUCK and RICH EVANS. I soon learned that Gary was owner of a professional basketball team in Youngsville, while Rich was star player of his team. As I walked on, I came to MAE PETERSON and MARY ENNEY. Mae was telling of her work as an interior decorator, while Mary told us of her experience as a model. Looking around I saw JUNE MOREY and CAROLYN WEISENBERGER. June said that she was owner of a dress designing company in New York, while Carolyn was her head secretary. ,lust as we were assembling to eat, I overheard a conversation which sounded rather complicated. Seeing that is was DANIEL STEINER and JACK ROY I understood why. Daniel was now a prominent Theologian, and Jack was a famous philosopher. As I look back now, and remember that often our teachers were disgusted with us and probably wondered if we would ever succeed, I felt quite proud of the achieve- ments and accomplishments of the class of '58.

fHislory continued! One of the first events of our Sophomore year was the magazine drive. This was a great success for over 351,000 was taken in. Mrs. Perry also helped us in our other activities, along with the Sophomore play at the Community Institute. This year most of us joined the Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y. Uur next year as Juniors was a very busy one. Much time was spent in activities to boost our treasury. We sold candy at noon, and at the bas- ketball games. We also sponsored the Junior-Senior Banquet. Then too we put on the play Professor, How Could You? under the direction of lVlr. Kuhl- man. Fortunately our sponsor, Mr. Fabilli, was very helpful to us during this busy year. Linda Gray joined our class this year. ln the fall of '57 we entered the halls of North Lima to begin our last year of our twelve year climb. With Mr. Ward as our sponsor and class officers, Harvey Hartley, Dave Lawless, Sandy Rif- fle, and Dennis Ackerman, we concluded our fund raising activities with the play, record hops, and the steak supper. We also were in charge of the pub- lications. All of us were in some activities, clubs or athletics. There were many more important events, too numerous to name. Wefve had many experiences throughout these twelve years, which will always be remembered. Yes, these twelve years, along with their joys, sorrows, and friendships, will be cherished forever.
