ZAMADICS December 2 Walnutport, Route 1 Baseball December 27 August 21 October 21 December 4 There it is! There it is! We see a white building amidst emerald green grass and tall shady trees — the Northampton Memorial Center — where we will see the classmates we haven’t seen for years. As we come down to the Community Center in our helicopter, we are greeted by a gang of swimmers— among them, George Miller, Richard Mack, Spike Roth, and Chester Feidler. We walk into the main building where we see a blonde receptionist, Miriam Scheirer, busily banging at a typewriter. Going into the music room we find cur former pianist, Janet Snyder, inspiring her students to appreciate better music. As we leave the music room we collide with Edna Lennon, who is happily strolling with Franklin Graver, surrounded by Dorothy Feidler, Ellen Ruch, Ruth Schall, Jeanne Hawk, nurses on vacation. Arriving at the swimming pool, we see “Skinny” Houston and Eleanor Humphrey teaching the small children some new gymnastics. Sit ting on a bench in the shade, we see “Butch” Feidler and her one and only. Getting hungry, we go cut to the cafeteria to eat, and there we find Miriam Miller serving hot dogs. While chatting with her, we see on the green lawn two tired looking boys, none other than Jake Hess and Pal Lentz, tinkering with the gasoline lawn mower. On the baseball diamond we see two teams of boys playing with Paul Hrinda pitching and Tilly Miller catching. Out in the field we see Frank Skrapits as short stop, Specks Fvler as first baseman, John Haas cn second, Walter Tychv on third, and Albert Rothrock in center field. The rest of the fielders we can’t see ’cause the sun’s in our eyes, but we diiscover the manager is Robert Coleman. Jimmy Smith is coming up to bats. “Strike one!” calls Maggie Smith, the ump, who just made a hit with him. — Bang! “Boy, that was a hit — a home run!!” Next batter up is Walt Griesmer, just home from the Navy. “Oil! heck, they caught that ball. Well, that’s three out.” Surgeon Benny Kraynick, on vacation, is the first batter on the opposing team— “lie’s on first base.” Here ccmes Mike Evans. Come on, Mike, run!!” Sitting on the bench are John Hoffman, Russel Hackman, Carl Kapus-cliak, Alfred Kosman, and Ray Miller, back from the Navy. In charge of the refreshment stand is Harold Smith. In the crowd we see Mildred Correll. “Why, I believe that is Lorraine Schall over there.” After watching the game a little longer, we go beck to the main building where we meet Conductor Harry Stine, who asks us to stay for the concert because the famous Francis Bundra is going to play the “Warsaw Concerto.” Seeing Honey Strohl, we have a nice long chat with her. She suggests we eat supper together at the Palad-ium. Entering the dining hall, we can’t help noticing that happy figure, David Beltz. He tells us he has just bought a farm in Danielsville. Across the room, sitting at a table, is Richy Ree-ncck and his date having a wonderful time. Our attention is drawn to Steve Farkas, now weighing at least two hundred and fifty pounds, Steve Tuskey, the family man, John Shedonic, and “Lover” Janny seated at a table discussing their family troubles. At another table we see Ruth Hartman, who is now working at Yultee, Ruth Oplingcr and Irene Mushko, who are nurses at Haff’s, Beatrice Crock, who is the nurse at the infirmary, Jeanette Bartholomew, who owns her own beauty shop, and Madeline Getz, all diiscus-sing the main problem—men!! In comes Betty Kramlich, who sings with a famous orchestra. She waves to Geraldine Heiney, still a famous jitterbug, Eleanor Schmidt, a secretary in the office cf the Silk Mill, and Jean Rice, who is a waitress at the Stork Club. After supper we go outside and watch Lillian Snyder, Mildred Smith, Harriet Newton, and Mildred Ilandwerk playing croquette. Slowly walking over tc the band shell we see Irene Yat-sura, Anna Onuschak, and Doris Deppe walking arm-in-arm. On our right we see Frank Sodl, a pro football star, George Smolick, Fred Schock, and “Shorty” John Najpauer going to the pool for a refreshing swim. David Miller rides by on a pony. Bill Molchany ushers us down to our seats, and we see Butch Bradcr, Robert Seier, and Rollin Miinnich, the stage crew, peeping from the side. Looking to the left, Jo Bosh, a smartly dressed girl, takes her seat beside Gloria Legath and Rose Gratzel. “Tiny” Tanzcsh and “Muscles” Schneider come walking down the aisle and take their seats behind Jennie Boruck, Sophie Koval, and Mary Hrinda. Dorothy Schaffer, Frances Czyrski, Frances Ritter, Katherine Rem-sing, and Pearl Stever are seated in back of us chatting away. The music starts, and Helen Molnar and Louis Frisch, late comers, are seen stumbling over feet getting to their seats. As a soft breeze gently CLASS PROPHECY, continued touches our faces, we hear the soothing, refreshing music. At intermission we converse with Kathleen Smith, and Dorothea Smith who seen to enjoy the concert. Steve Deutsch and Robert Falat are heard joking with Mary Pidstawski and Hilda Kopfer. A flashy shirt passes with Andy Stetch in it, and Potsy Farkas goes outside to look at the flat tires on his car. Phyllis Fogel, cracking her gum, comes strutting down the aisle elling candy. The buzzer rings and there is a wild rush for seats. After the concert we go to Eddy Zamadic’s estaurant where the juke box is blaring away, and we see Evelyn Sukanick dancing with a post graduate. Drinking cokes, we see Minnie Martli flirting with some Navy men from “Berg.” Over in the corner playing chess are Richard Koch and Michael Mathesz. How they play with all this noise is beyond me!! That husky boy who just came in is Stanley Smith and with him is Clarence Stein. Theodore Smith is dancing with a cute girl. Lucky Theodore! Helen Kantz is seen with a boy we wouldn’t mind meeting. But it is late and though reluctant to leave our old friends and this happy scene, we slowly walk over to our helicopters, seat ourselves, and prepare to flv away into the starry sky.
