CLASS PROPHECY Well, here we are in 1963, and the first thing that we see is Carolyn Wyler working for the F. B. I. in Washington, D. C. Eddie Mac Turpin is also working in a big city. He’s practicing law in New York City. Tina Rice is happily married to Jim Adams, and they are living on Shelbyville road on a nice ten acre farm. Sue Taylor Good just can’t decide which proposal to accept. Eeny, meeny, miney, mo. The following girls are really going somewhere in their careers. Mary Joe Anderson is now professor of music at Yale. Eula Jones is singing with the Metropolitan Opera Company in New York. Lula Gay Griffin is teaching school in Africa, and Norma Ray Bourne is struggling with the first grade pupils at Stanford High. It is hard to look back and picture “Short” Saufley as a thin, tall boy, when you see him now with his big pot belly. Of course, he has been doing very well as state commissioner of highways. “Briar” Clark is now one of C. B. S.’s top sportscasters and newscasters. He was an unknown until he filled in for Edward R. Murrow, so now he has Murrow’s job. Don Potts is an admiral of the U. S. Navy. He and Shirley Gidley are separated quite a bit due to this, but, “that’s navy life,” says Don. It looked like Don Dawson was going to become a navy man also, but when he got a job from the A. P., he didn’t reenlist. Don is now manager of the big Lexington A. P. stores. Eugene Lawerence is another navy man. He is in command of the new battleship, Kentucky. Jim Frisbie has taken over his father’s medical practice. The other day he said that he never saw so many sick people, and that he hadn’t been fishing in a whole week. Billy Mac and Delores are running the farm out on Somerset road. They have been married five years, and they have six children--three sets of twins. james Weaver is a farmer in Hubble, Ky., and is raising a nice family of fifteen boys (we didn’t count the girls). Jim Wilmot is quietly running a farm on Hustonville road, while Jim Reed and Victor Young have gone to Alaska to hunt and trap with the Eskimoes. Celebrating her tenth wedding anniversary is Mrs. J. L. Simmons, formerly Ruby Adams, who is now living in Crab Orchard. Mrs. Charles Debord, formerly Rosemary Tillett, is living in Cincinnati. Laverne Hurst is married, naturally, and is raising a family, naturally, in Stanford. Bobby Hester is farming on his father’s farm on Lancaster road. Charles Hume is the owner and operator of a large fishing camp on Herrington Lake. Shirley Martin, after roaming all over the United States, has finally found her man. Having served his time in Korea, Bill Cox has bought a large garage in Louisville. Virginia Berry is teaching physical education at our dear old Stanford High.
