. 1 Class Prophecy On a nice June day in 1973 the telephone lines were buzzing with news about two Smithville High School graduates that cupid had finally shot. Morrene Musser, a former teacher at Smithville High School, is busy reminding Doris Zimmerly, who is a happy housewife, about the wedding that is to take place. They are looking forward to the occasion because most of their old classmates will be there. On the big day, approaching the church, We see Mr. and Mrs. Dale Shamp gayly reminiscing with Mr. and Mrs. Lonnie Starcher. Dale is now a civil engineer, work- ing for the state of Illinois, and Lonnie has just retired from the Navy. While we are talking to them, Harold Conrad, a well known lawyer, arrives. He tells us that he had the privilege of issuing them their mar- riage license. We are surprised to see that Karen Berkey, who is a nurse at Cleveland City Hospital, was able to leave her position long enough to attend the wedding. She was flown here by Roger Badertscher, who is an instructor at the Cleveland Municipal Airport. As we enter the church, we are greeted by the ushers, Richard Besancon, Darrel In- dermuhle, and Gerald Elliott, who are all engaged in farming. Harry Uimj Geiser, who is a well known photographer, is taking some pictures of the flowers which were fur- nished by Mr. and Mrs. Bill Buchwalter fBetty Boremanj. Bill now owns and op- erates the Buchwalter Greenhouse. We arrived at our seats just in time, be- cause the organist, Paula Feusier, has just started playing. She is the organist at the Smithville Methodist Church. Mrs. Ralph Woods, the former Bernice Lytle, will be the soloist. As she finishes f'Because, the organ peals forth with the Wedding March. Down the aisle comes The Reverend Galen Moomaw, the minister at his newly estab- lished church, who will perform the cere- mony. Next comes the best man, Charles Raudebaugh, who is engaged in farming. Following him comes the groom. All eyes are focused on the procession which is coming down the aisle. First We see Arlene Odenkirk and Janice Bishop, who are the bridesmaids, They are wearing beautiful yellow dresses. Ruth McClure makes a very lovely maid of honor in her lime green dress. The big moment has arrived. Here comes the bride in her lovely white gown, escorted by Ralph Smucker, who is working on her father's farm trying out one of his experi- ments on soil conservation. The gowns Worn by the bridal party were made and designed by Helen Gordon and Joanne Hartzler, who run the dress shop in Smithville. Following the ceremony, the first to con- gratulate the newly Weds is Allen Zook, who came only to kiss the bride. 19

Class Prophecy QCont'cl.j Outside the church everyone is given a small bag of rice furnished by Harold Miller. He has recently discovered a new process for cleaning rice. The rice was passed out just in time because the bride and groom have now come out of the church and are hurrying toward their decorated car driven by Bob Hohenshil, operator of the Smithville Ford Garage. The Stuckey's tCarole Lonierj have open- ed their home for a wedding supper. As we enter the living room, we see a table with a beautiful three tiered wedding cake made by Carol Miller. She is now head of the Miller Pastry Shoppe at Smithville. Also on the table is a large punch bowl. Roy Morri- son is head of the Morrison Catering Serv- ice and has furnished the punch. As we peek into the kitchen, we see Mari- lyn Zuercher and Dolores Trolxel busily pre- paring the meat which was contributed by Bill Hutchison, who is general manager of Sheller Bros. Meats. Marilyn and Dolores are operating a small cozy restaurant in Smithville. Everyone is now gathering around to ad- mire the bride's beautiful wedding ring 20 which was purchased from the Singer Jew- elry Store. Jim is now a very prominent business man. We now see Elton Moose, who luckily just arrived home from the Congo, where he is a missionary. Slipping in the door, we spy Fritz Bland, late again, but this time he has a good ex- cuse. He tells us that he has just completed his good deed for the day for the newly weds. He tied their clothes in knots and hid their suitcases. After the newly weds return home from their trip, planned by Eleanor Yates, who is secretary at the Wooster Travel Agency, they will reside at their modern home de- signed by Willis Troyer of the Troyer Man- ufacturing Co. After the supper, everyone waves good-by and wishes Mr. and Mrs. John Bupp Uoan Carmonyj a very happy marriage. Written by Paula Feusier Morrene Musser Gene Stuckey Dale Shamp
