CLASS PROPHECY A few years - Ten years - Twenty years. I wonder where each of us will be in twenty years, Maybe if I just shut my eyes a little I shall be able to pretend that I have come back to Peterstown twenty years from now and am contacting all the members of the graduating class. What appears first? -- Peggy Ferguson was reported to be missing. Marriage is suspected, as she was last seen in a gray '51 Chevrolet. Donnie Buckland the famous basketball star is now playing with the Globe Trotters. Sandra Witten that good looking dame, of Mill Hill, has turned man hater because of difficulty in early romance. Van Mann, the great play boy, has recently taken the place of Liberace. Carol .T ones a good natured kid has been nominated to run as the first lady President of the Southern Confederacy. Forrest Bradley, a famous research scientist, has invented a rocket ship, which can make a successful trip to the moon. Shirley Weaver has taken the trophy of the World Wide Women Wrestlers for the second time. Rumors are around that she has muscles. That man of the banjo, Opie Ganoe, has made another great success on the Grand Old Opera. Shirley Wilson bought out Chrysler Products, for a personal reason. The company now specializes in Black Plymouths. We see that today the well known Jimmy Dillon has retired from his hobby of Scoreboards to checker- boards, Shirley Suttle has signed a contract with M,G,M. pictures, She will start in the next movie cal1ed The Return of Francis. Richard McNeil won his fifth trophy at the Indianapolis stock car races. Escaping a flop she had been dating in high school, Leota Lane went to New York where she has been a successful model for, Hardly Nothing Clothing Company. James Craig and his wife, Anna Mae fDunnJ Craig, have just returned from Bozoo, with their twelve children. Sara Jane Ballard is now a gypsy, telling people about their future in the Royal American Circus. With this she earns her name of The Gypsy With the Crystal Ball. Harold Pack, the good LOOKING woman catcher has just gotten married. lt seems rather odd, but Betty Beasley is now playing guard for the National Trotter Basketball Team. Teddy Francis has just joined Tennessee Earnie as the next best pea picker. People find it hard to die with Patty Bradley, the great nurse, standing by. Junior Amos has just purchased the remaining part of Peters Mountain. Elsie Jo Brown, after a college course, is very successful as a secretary. Roscoe Amos, that rambling redhead, has just roamed around Zenith. Anna Mae Craig for a word was never at a loss, now she's married and is still her own boss. Merry Terry Beckett has just broken his contrary wife's nose with a rap of the garden hose. Louise Dunn became Peterstown's only lady taxi driver, and has designed a new car. It is called the ' ' C alidoniamobile. ' ' We see that the baseball world has opened its eyes on Howard Thompson, the Willie Mays for Cleveland. Betty Helm currently broke the world's typing record. She is employed as J ack Potburk's private sec- retary. Today's paper states that the family man, Alvin Carter, became father of another set of triplets. Miss Sue Ballard is now teaching the first grade at the Ponduck Grade School. She is having quite a hard time with a little boy that belongs to Mr. and Mrs. Bob Guynn. Dr. Bob Guynn has just confessed to manslaughter for putting a pair of second hand kidneys in a victim. Mary Craft, Star Tight Rope Walker of the Ringling Brothers Circus, recently fell off and broke her leg from stepping too high. A rumor is going around that Lee Porterfield, the best of undertakers, has quit his job because he was letting all his friends down. Margaret Sarver, farm girl, is harvesting the FIELDS for next year's crop, We see this election season that the fighting politician, Lloyd Chandler, has come to the front in the dreary struggle for Mayor of Bozoo. Yvonne Ball after much hard work has done quite well at her job as baby sitter. Thurmond Brewster, finding that crime doesn't pay, has reformed into a calm minded minister. Ellen Dillon, Bookkeeper, is having a tough time keeping up with her PACK of homework. continued on page 58 20
