Graduated in 1963 233 Number of Grandchildren Still Trying I (Class Spirit) Married 230 Working (Housewives not included) Engaged 2 Retired Undecided | Tired but not RE-tired Holding Out | (Housewives included) Number of Children 647 Class Prophecy We, the Class of 1963, realize that we graduate into a world that offers to us a tremendous challenge. What with the Berlin situation, the Cuban crisis, the tax reform hullabaloo, the race for nuclear supremacy, the adoption of automation and the conquest of space, we are faced with a multitude of problems. We subscribe to the theory that if we solve one of these, we may find the formula for the solution of all. Following in the footsteps of great men like John Glenn and Scott Carpenter, we have chosen SPACE as our problem to solve and have set our sights on its conquest by the year 2000 — the turn of the new century. How will we succeed? Our prophecy today reveals the answers. Through the prophetic eyes of automation we can safely predict our conquest of space. Information has already been relayed to the |. B.
