--- ov - 'Z X - -N . 655 R S D Q Q Q After working many hours on the class prophe- cy I began to feel drowsy, pretty soon I was sound asleep. Soon I found myself racing down the super highway in my new l970 sports car, that I had just gotten the day before from RUTH HARDlN'S factory. When I arrived at Orion I saw a lot of cars parked along main street. I parked my car and went in to see what the big attraction was. To my surprise I found some of my classmates in BOB CARLSON'S Hot Rod Shop, having a good time after such a lang separation. His top me- chanic BOB THOLL was discussing football with COACH PARRISH. WAYNE REHN and JERRY HARDIN had their hot rod in for a checkup be- cause they were driving in the big race on Sun- day. I found out from BILL GUSTAFSON that they were planning a cross country race and were going to leave right away. Bill asked me if I wanted to ride with him and l accepted. While he was getting a final checkup on his car I went for a walk down the street. The first corner I came to I saw DOCTOR DON MCATEE and his assistant SHIRLEY BARKER. They both said they liked dental work. AVIS LONG, an airline hostess, had iust come in from a flight from Maine, one of her passengers was JACKIE BREECHER who is a teacher in Maine. When I got back to the Hot Rod Shop, Bill was ready to leave. We left Orion for the west coast in high hopes of seeing some more classmates, and especially to bring home the trophy. We hqdn'f gone far when we came to a small town where we stopped to eat. We found a nice little restaurant that was called, 'FRANK'S place, we went in and found that FRANK SUN- DEEN was the proprietor. He told us that his chief cook and bottle washer was JIM HILL. Frank walked out to our car with us and while we were talking lie pointed out a big store. There was a big sign over the door which read, Kl..UNDT and KLUNDT' Furniture. Frank told us that MARVIN and MELVIN were doing very well in their store. Their furniture designers were BETTE ANN JOHNSON and DENNIS HAMER- LINCK. As we started out again and was speeding down the road we saw a sign that read, LUND- BERG'SCHlCKEN FARM. Weremembered Shirley saying that she wanted to live on a farm. We saw, SHIRLEY LUNDBERG'S name on the mailbox and knew it was her farm. We were hungry at supper time and stopped at a night club. The neon sign was blinking, WlEGEL'S HARMONY CLUB. When we were seated and were waiting for our supper we read - 61444 Pflvplww the entertainment sheet. On the top of the sheet was the featured singer, we were happy to see JO ANNE BROWN'S name. Also on the program was SANDRA HURDEL'S, SANETTES,' which included,JUDY HAMlLTON,MICKEY KELEHER, JOANNE MEIRHAEGHE, JO CRAIG, and VER- NITA LARSON. Featured for the evenings danc- ing was OTTO'S HEP CATS , under the direc- tion of MAHLON PETERSON. We left there after an enjoyable evening. At 4:00 P.M. one afternoon, we saw a couple of teachers helping little kids on the bus. As we sped by we saw MARY VAN HOUTTE and JANET PETERSON. We didn't have time to stop, so we iust waved. We passed the Triple A Ranch' that Frank told us about, belonging to ROCKY ATWELL, LOREN ANDERSON and DON ATKINSON. When we arrived at Denver, Colorado, they were celebrating the birthday of their governor, CHARLES STEPHENS. When we saw him he was riding, along with his secretary, PAT SMITH, in the head car. The next day we arrived in California in time for the Rose Bowl game. We were far ahead of the other drivers, so we decided to see the game. Much to our surprise, we saw the top player to be CHARLES LA BEE. After the game, we attended the crowning of the queen. When the crown was placed on CAROL DE ROCKER, we were. proud to have had her as a classmate. Her attendants were PEARL and MARILYN SCHNEIDER. On one of the floats we saw Professor HOLMES who is the Professor of Philosophy at the Uni- versity of California. Taking pictures of the parade for the Daily News was GARY FULLERTON, the top photo- grapher at the DailyNews. We saw his assistants, FRANK EDMUND and ALAN GUSTAFSON as they left to get pictures of the racers at the end of the run. When Bill and I arrived back where we had left the car, we saw the other drivers. We went over to congratulate them and found BENHARD JOHN- SON and PAUL JOHNSON. When it was time to award the trophy, we saw SHIRLEY MAELTZER coming toward us. She told us we were the winners. We had not only won the cup, but had seen many of our old class- mates. I awoke to the sound of music coming from my radio. I heard, Friends, this is your old buddy, TED SEABLOOM, back here in Orion, bringing you the top five on Dreamarama.
