(A1 Prophecy As put my Disneland Viewmaster up to my eyes could see the headlines, Senior Class of 1980”, so decided to venture on through. gave my viewmaster a little dick and right before my eyes was Larry Inselman, his faithful wife' Brenda, and their seven scrawny little children. Larry is now a door-to-door salesman in Florida, selling long thermal underwear. With one more dick there was Bernie Altenbach in the middle of the forest with a tree in one hand and a big sign on his back that reads, Bernie Altenbach — Professional Tree Planter. The next subject is a strange looking one by the name of Butch Prindel, once being a doctor specializing in ears, now he has gotten his degree taken away because it was discovered that he signed his own diploma. Now Butch is doing Zest soap commercials. As we click again we find Perry Grabowski trying to make a living for his wife as a big Texas tycoon pumping oil. Good Luck, Perry! The next dick is an outstanding one. see Carrie DeLong who is now Mrs. Tombo Miller. She is working full time for the arrow wood factory, recently getting a wage increase. The $1.50 she now makes will help provide for their five cute, frizzy red-haired, squat bodied and short footed children. On Carrie's days off she visits with her friend Valorie Weltch Smith who is married and writing her third book on husband abuse. Valorie spends most of her time caring for little junior and waiting for messages from Del Webb book Company. Is we go a little further we see Ronda, who now lives in New York, using her artistic abilities drawing grafetti on subway tunnel walls. AH the time faithfully waiting for her husband Scurry to get home. As we click on to find out how Jodi and Diane are, we discover that jodi could not find it in her heart to leave P. H.S., so she became secretary for the high school and in her spare time she is rally advisor. As for Diane, although she was never prompt about going to school, she has straightened out enough to open a chain of Hot Dog Haven restaurants and is hoping to spread them throughout the U.S.A. So concludes the final frame of the Prophecy for the Class of 1980. But who really knows what lies ahead in the lives of these students. Only their attitudes, desires, and determination will tell. IB} Class Will Jodi Allred will be taking with her that unique laugh, but will leave behind to Kimberly Altenbach her ability to flunk a test and leaving to Brenda Blanton the ability to gain weight without even trying. Carrie DeLong and her Biology headaches will be missed, but in an attempt to fill her shoes she leaves to her sister, Julie DeLong, the secrets of maintaining without freaking out and to Jeanne Case a starting position on the volleyball team if she wants it. Diane Jones will be taking with her the 1980 school record of the most absences in a nine weeks for a Senior, but behind her she will leave to Rosalee Hedrick the patience not to interrupt while other people are talking and to Terry Cathey the decisiveness to know whether she’s coming or going. Ronda Shellabarger and her gift of artistic talent will be missed greatly, but remembered as she leaves to Charlene Inselman the wisdom and ability to get a drivers license the easy way — from Cracker Jack Inc., and to Candy Warrick the luck and ability to make it over the next ditch in Golpher” also to Tami Gibson that unique ability to make a fool of yourself without getting embarrased and turning your face. Valorie Smith from Powers High will be taking care of her baby and leaving to Molly Grabowski her ability to ride with safe drivers and to Sheila Thornsberry the secret to hiding your neck from vampire marks. Butch Prindel will be taking that mischieveous grin of his with him and leaving to Paul Nightingale the ability not to say WHA 77 and to Sam Stevens his theory of why they didn't go to state. Perry Grabowski is sure to make it big in the world. In his memory he leaves to Bill Looney the reputation of being the badest person in the school and to Kim Walker his feet or one pair of size 15 shoes. Larry Inselman will be taking his temper with him, THANK GOD! And he leaves to Roger Bessey long legs and his calm temper and to Bruce Miller the skill to make it through football uninjured, and to Neil Golizen the secret of telling good fish stories. Bernie Altenbach, his dependability and personality, will be greatly missed as will the nose jokes that he took so well. He leaves to Dave McDaniel three lessons on how to tie your tennis shoes, to Mark Pinson his calculator for scientific notation without the music, and to Bob Shorb the music from his calculator. 181 Will and Prophecy

The Queen and Her Court Fired Up With Spirit After weeks of scraping together and piling wood for one of the better bonfires in Cruiser History, the Freshmen touched off the bonfire November 25, 1979. During the bonfire the Varsity Rally led a serpentine through the local taverns. The next day with spirits high, the Cruiser football team creamed the Butte Falls Loggers 20-8.
