CLASS PROPHECY It's a clear bright summers day. All the people of Stonington and surrounding areas have come to wit- ness the dedication of the new senior high school, designed by the eminent Robert Hill and constructed by Charles Rustici. The greater portion of this build- ing was financed by Sir Robert Gibson, the well known millionaire, who still has the first penny he ever earned. The beautiful decorations for this affair were designed and donated by the famous artist team of Joan Appleton, Harry Ashbey and Betty Lenzzo. This great event is being broadcast over that great Network-BBBS-Bobby Bayer's Broadcasting Sta- tion. Bayer's chief aid and assistant is none other than Erwin Dessaules. Their capable secretaries are Lottie Prachniak and Maria DaSilva, respectively. Near the platform setting up the microphones and equipment we see Robert Main, head technician. The announcer for todays ceremonies is the well known Richard Robinson. This afternoons special broadcast is being sponsored by Margaret Ball's sensational new home permanent Frizz. You can now get Frizz at all leading drug stores. ln Stonington it may be pur- chased at Connors' Drug Store, owned and operated by Geraldine Connors, pharmacist. Looking around we see many familiar faces. Say, there's a couple of men we should all remember. Hap Hopalong, LeClair and Ronnie The Lover Seidell, the center of attraction as always. These two boys have just bought out Atlantic City and plan to hold a beauty contest there every week. With them are their very efficient secretaries Barbara Squadrito and Phyllis Steele, the only ones who have ever been able to type 99V2 words a minute. We also see Teresa Teague and Jeannette Wallington, who are talking to each other. Jeannette is head director of all Mariners in the United States, while Teresa is the author of the best seller, Stonington, Home of Basketball Champions. Glancing about we see a few women dressed in white uniforms. Wonder who they are? Oh yes, it's Ethel Cone, Joanna Aiello, and Charlotte Crowley, nurses at the Philip Bonomo and Gilbert Sorensen Home for Orphans. With them are Charlotte Dunn and Shirley Smith, nursery school teachers at the Peggy Sebastian Kindergarten for Girls. It is almost time for the ceremonies to begin. The All Star Band of America under the direction of Jack Sutcliffe is just warming up. The outstanding players in this band are Gabriel Freitas, clarinetist, and Richard Sousa, trumpeter. This famous bancl has recently toured Europe and came home just to attend this dedication. Walking onto the stage is Jean Colosi who will lead in singing The Star Spangled Banner. This young lady is now the singing star of the.Broad- way musical Three Cheers for the Navynhwritten by Peter Brown, Edwin Swanson and Lynn Siegel, three admirals, who have just retired from the Navy and have written this spectacular production from first hand information, The eyes of the nation are today focused on that little town in Connecticut-Stonington, Governor William Haupt has flown from Hartford especially to attend the dedication of this new school, which is the largest in the United States. Accompanying Gov- ernor Haupt are Mary Palmer and Joe Risica, Sen- ators. You probably all remember them as top spc k- ers in P. D. Jim Ballato, master of ceremonies, will introduce the principal speakers. Jim, who is the football coach of Stonington High, had the opportunity to be head football coach for the Los Angeles Rams, but prefers the quiet life of Stonington. The first speech will be given by Barbara Richards, Speaker of the House of Representatives. On the platform beside Barbara are Teresa Alexander, principal of Stonington High, June Russo, Secretary of the school and George Richards, Superintendent of Schools. They certainly know how to give speeches, direct and to the point, two minutes each. The speeches are over and the entertainment is now going to begin. First on the program is Carolyn Sylvia, famous tap dancer of Nancy DeBragga's Va- riety Review, which has toured all over Europe and is now being featured at Norman Pettini's pleasant, peaceful and popular Peacock Room in Miami. Also featured in this show are Dorothy Costa, the Bar- bara Ann Scott of rollerskates, Gloria Ahern, famous girl yodeler and Dick Costa and Roland Buck, noted guitar duo. As we look we see a very familiar girl hustling back and forth amongst the crowd. Oh yes, it's Libby Crowley, famous for her nation wide Lib's Catering Service. The three women who are greatly respon- sible for the unusual recipes used by Libby are Al- berta White, Dorothy Clark and Marilyn Shaw. There's a couple of our classmates we should all remember. Maureen Jeffrey and Marshall Stowell. Maureen is now a leading child psychologist and has her own office in New York, while Marshall is the successful operator and owner of the Follies which have been responsible for the return of the Flora Dora Girls. Talking to them we find that Ann Ryon is now a veterinarian in Scotland, where she raises poodles and that Alana Steele, Pat Cooper and Sandra Clarke are now officers in the air force. Mary Galli, Bella Malone, Pat Miller and Phyllis Pelters are happy little homemakers. Perhaps you have visited the large book store owned by Evelyn Colprit and Nickey Blanda. We hear from them that Eleanor Birk- beck's book How to Raise Ayrshires Successfully has sold over a million copies. Guess who is now teaching at Stonington? Well it's Janice Burdick, Mathematics, Fay Lawton, Home Economics and William Squadrito, Chemistry. Among the many celebrities here today are Carolyn Calkins and Del Oliverio who have written a play especially for Duane l-Ieineck, entitled The Tall, Tall Man. Co-starring with Duane are Mary Ann page twenty-nine
