X Y. l Class Prophecy In the year 1968, Mary Kay Badgley, was summoned by the head of the San Rrancisco Press, Mr. Raymond Adams to write a feature story titled CONFIDENTIAL 1958. The story had to be on something that happened in 1958. lthought and thought, and finally an idea occurred. Hadn't my senior class graduated in 1958? Well, why not write the fulfillment of the life ambitions of my Racine High School Senior Class. I told my boss and he consented to the idea. I hadn't realized so many years had gone by until I began interviewing each of my former senior classmates. The first thing I did was to get aboard a plane headed for Racine, Ohio. Much to my surprise the pilot of the plane was Roger Beegle and the stewardess was Jacqueline Adams, both graduates of my class. The plane's first stop was New Orleans, where I was entertained by a jazz band directed by Patricia Stobart, and a splendid floor show starring such celebrities as comedian, George Donohew, singer Annabel Van Meter, the former Annabel Rose, pianist Odessa Willford, and the famous dancers Aleta Russell, Thelma Randolph, Janice Hill Glenn, Karen Cooper, and Shelva Brown. What a wonderful evening, but it ended quickly. In the morn- ing I boarded the plane for Racine, Ohio. On my arrival at my home town Racine, the mayor Dale Hart and councilman Waid Foster and his lovely wife, Shelba Hill Foster, were there to welcome me at the airport. How wonderful to be re-united with schoolmates. My how the town had grown! Jim Smith and Lawrence Theiss were new co-owners of the famous Racine Country Club and Bar. I was certainly surprised to find that so many of my classmates had stayed in Racine. Carl Wolfe was now the famous and noted coach of the new high school. A few new teachers had been added to the staff such as Wesley Cozart, math teacherg and Bill Proctor, vocational - agricul- ture teacher. Carolyn Cleland Powell, a physical education teacher, was also teaching here at Racine. Her husband, Ivan, was an accountant at one of the local firms. After finding all the school officials, I went out of the city of Racine into the rural area and was amazed to find John Pape, the owner of a huge dairy farm, living out here. As we chatted he told me of the new atomic research plant being built on route 338. John also said Thomas Fisher and J' ack Weese were the engineers for this great undertaking. Since it was getting late, I had to get back into town for my beauty appointment at the well-known beauty salon operated by Susan Shain and Mattie Kiser. While I was there, they told me that Joseph Glenn was a lieu- tenant and was stationed in Japan. When I walked out of the salon, I ran right smack into none other than George Albert Hill. He owned a most delightful pizza shop on Thirty-first street. As soon as I had eaten, my private secretary, Linda Mallory, and I took in the wrestling matches featuring John Wingett. His managers were Jack Teaford and Bill Wingett. Ihear that these two men manage the bestl At the wrestling match we sat beside James Hunt and Arthur Johnson. Both were doing office work and had families. On our way to the hotel, managed by Edward Chapman, we saw Hazel Stobart Wilson. She told me that she was teaching Rock and Roll at a near by dance studio. This had been one of the most memorable days of my life. It had been so packed full of surprises, I couldn't go to sleep. So, I picked up the best-seller novel by Anna Foreman and began to read. Toward morning a fire broke out in the hotel and three firemen, Don Miller, David Cleland, and Bennie Newsome rescued me. Although the fire was not a serious one, I was slightly injured on the hand. Judy Proffitt, a nurse. administered first aid. As I left Racine the following day, I couldn't help feeling that our class had been fortunate and successful. Well, I guess that just about wraps it up and so back to California! I5

Senior Class Histor In September of 1954 the class of 1958 enrolled in Racine High School with sixty-nine studtents. At the first meeting as freshmen we elected the following officers: President, Carl Wolfe, Ir.: Vice-President, June Codner: Secretary and Treasurer, Carolyn Cleland. We struggled through the freshmen initiation with much embarrassment at the hands of our upper classmen. And so ended our freshman year with many new experiences, new friends, and anxious anti- cipations for the coming year. At the beginning of our sophomore year our number was found to be decreasing. The entire enroll- ment of our class was only fifty-eight. Our officers for this year were: President, Bill Proctor: Vice- President, Annabel Rose: Secretary and Treasurer, ,Tune Codner. Our money-making project for this year was selling magazines. Swiftly came our junior year with the following officers: President, George Donahue: Vice-President, Carolyn Cleland: Secretary and Treasurer, Linda Mallory: Business Manager, .Tune Codner. Many projects for making money were carried out in order to help finance our senior trip. A highlight of this year was the comedy, Grandad Steps Out. Too soon came the time for us to be seniors. Now with a class of forty-four we elected for our President, Roland Wolfe: Vice-President, Tom Fisher:Secretary and Treasurer, George Donahue: Business Manager, Jack Weese. We were kept very busy, making preparations for the closing year, making money to finance our trip, and selecting our class motto, flowers, and colors. Then comes the end of our high school days. We bid you all farewell. May each student of our class be successful in all his undertakings. 'I4
