Orrys Williams is still recovering at Mass. General Hospital from his younger days. Edward Levine will be appointed Chief Mortician at the New York City Morgue some time next month. Harold Gabriel’s wish has finally come true. He has been placed in the nose cone of a rocket and fired into outer space. John Currie, after working on the stamp machine for twenty-five years, finally got a raise; he is now earning $1.05 an hour. Rumors have it that Steve Kaplan Enterprises, with its ambassador of good will, Fred Miller, has just recently purchased Rockingham Park, and thus has completed a sydicate which now contains Raynham Dog Track, Nar- ragansett Race Track, Taunton Dog Track, Suffolk Downs, Mickey's Bowlaway, and various other such establishments. After twenty-five years of trying to make a success, Kevin Dever is still asking the advice of Jeremiah Geary. A new style chin-growth has just been concocted in the laboratories of Furey and Lake, Inc., wherein it has been proved that if two chins are put together and kept in this position for one week, one long beard will result! Paul Cain, now forty-four, still swings the best cymbals in St. Mary’s Teen- age Band. Last week a tremendous fire raged for two days, and the cause of it was a strange tale indeed! It seems that a giant gas jet was invented and touched off by none other than William Verrocchi. David Mclver, once a Memorial great in hockey, has just been hired by the Boston Bruins as their stand-in goalie. Barry Steinberg, Kenneth Norris, and Stephen Epstein have just left on an emergency world-wide trip to determine why “Rickets” have hit the world so hard this year. Richie Columbare is still asking Burt Norris what happened to his teeth. Supreme Court Justices Butch Hullum and John Grooms have just subpoenaed multi-millionaires James Lewis and Lawrence Prag for failing to pay their 1964 Poll Tax and Old Age Tax. Dave Cohen and his cohorts, Paul Carlson and Donald Jenkins, have started a movement which will see the old Boston Technical School Building at Warren and Townsend Streets changed to Memorial High School by September of 1986. Steven Lerner, noted bio-chemist and scientist of the West Coast Chemical Analysis Laboratory, recently tried to disprove the fact that the world was round. For his friends who wish to get in touch with him he can be reached at the violent ward of Bellevue Hospital, where at the latest report he was trying to disprove the fact that water is a liquid.

les Prophecy It is now the year 1984—twenty-five years since the illustrious class of 1959 has graduated from ‘Mother Memorial.” Its members have since reached all parts of the world and have established themselves in all sorts of occupa- tions. It is with the utmost difficulty that we have succeeded in compiling this history of their achievements. After twenty-five years of driving his ‘53 Chevy, Salvatore Auditore finally saved up enough money for four “border walls” for his wheels. Lennie Sorin, now 43, after having completed his ten-year stint at the helm of the Boston Celtics has agreed to take over the coaching of the Harlem Globetrotters. Harold Bausemer, after all his hard concentration to pick a profession, chose one he has hated all his life—teaching. David “Fizz Foster” Carmos will soon put into production a new toy which is certain to take the country by storm. It is a talking rabbit which he is going to call “Jupiter.” Harvey Golner dethroned Henry Cox from his Heavy-weight Boxing Cham- pionship last week in a thrilling battle which lasted the full four rounds. Cox knocked Golner down four times in the first round, but Golner came back to win the fight by way of a split decision. The referee, who was in the way most of the fight, was Robert Hirschorn. Robert J. Ciccarelli now is the proprietor of a joke shop under the overpasses of the once well-known West End. Anthony D’Arrigo finally is becoming a success under the orders of an Irishman. Larry “Pocket-Rocket-Rocket-Pocket” Albert broke an all-time record by being the first hockey player to ever fall through the ice in a game. Barry Weingart has just taken over the Advanced Spanish Department at Madrid University. He also has written a new book entitled “How to Read, Write, and Speak Spanish Fluently.” Hal Davis of New York, Mike Mallick of Boston, and Marty Brackman of Philadelphia have merged to form the E.C.L.H.C.A. or the East Coast Lonely Hearts Clubs Association. President-elect Mallick calls this a great day in the history of Lonely Hearts Clubs. It’s finally happened—Killer Kowalski has been dethroned by none other than that king of the mat-world—Larry Glazer. Glazer used his famed double reverse hair-lock and was quoted after the fight as saying, “It’s good!” Alan Kaplan will open a new T.V. series entitled, “Don’t Have Gun— Will Run.” The MacNeil Locker Co. has revolutionized the production of school lockers by giving the student a double-locker, one for his homelessons, so he can tell his teacher that he left his homelesson in his locker.
