WILLS AND BEQUESTS ARTICLE I Section 1: The Senior class leaves the following wills and bequeaths in hope you will weigh each one very carefully upon your inheritance. ARTICLE II COLLECTIVE WILLS Section 1: To the faculty we leave our quietness (no remarks) in classes and halls. Section 2: To the office we leave our many engravings of our initials; upon close examination you will find them on the school walls and assessories.

CLASS PROPHECY The scene is in the lobby of the Union Hotel where a reunion of the class of 45 is to be held. As we enter the lobby of the hotel, we hear music being rendered to our ears by Dave Johansen and his Melodeers. They are playing “Beat Me Daddy Eight to the Bar. His orchestra is a large one and consists of about 30 members who play everything from oboes to french horns. As we look farther into the lobby, we hear the commanding voice of Josephine Southard, who is the general manager of the hotel. She is dictating to her secretary. Venita Cross, who also acts as treasurer, general errand doer. etc. A man enters the lobby and proceeds to do a bit of repair work on the steam-heating system in the hotel. His name is Don Herbig and he is quite well known for his abiilty to fix anything from toy steam engines to large 3000 horsepower airplane engines. As Don left he turned to Jo and said that he would be back to attend the banquet as soon as he had gone home and changed into his tuxedo (which he had always enjoyed wearing). The reunion was supposed to start at 8:00 p. m. but people began showing up at 7:00 to chat with their old friends. The first of these guests to arrive was Maurice Irons, who is now a great railroad executive. He owns all the interest in the Union Switchback Line, which still runs from Union Junction to the Union sawmill and back. Here conies the general manager of the Union Flouring Mill, James Turner. He shakes hands with Mike and already they are talking over the many thrills they had when they played football together. Gene Shanks, manager of his father’s prune orchards, has made quite a name for himself, arrives next. He, too, was quite an athlete in his day and he gets together with Mr. Irons and Mr. Turner to talk over old times. Larry Griggs and his wife—Donna Bateman, member of the class of ’43 are the next guests to arrive. Larry owns a farm up around North Powder. Mescal Payne and Cordelia Mayotte (both maiden names, of course) were next to stroll thru the revolving doors. Cordelia has settled down on a farm and has a fine healthy family, while Mescal has been doing missionary work in China. As the time flies on. the delicious odor of the food, being prepared in the kitchen by Thelma Mills, is in the noses of all. Thelma has the title of being the Best Cook in the United States”. She got her start in the kitchen at home where she had to prepare her father’s breakfast every morning before going to school. Tonight she will get a taste of her own cooking and will it be fun to watch for the effects, since she has been cooking in leading hotels all over the world. As everyone is enjoying the wonderful aroma, Lieut. Ila Tiffany joins the group to chat and gossip. After graduating from high school, she joined the Waves and liked it so well she decided to stay. Immediately following her is Marie Milligan, who is private secretary to John P. Morgan, a very rich man in New York City. She has become quite prominent in this field and the President had considered her quite a few times for his private secretary but she has not quite made the grade yet. Give her another year and she will probably do it. Next guest to arrive is Mrs. Donald Hoyt (the former Pearl Wright) who is now living on the Bar Z Ranch and is doing a very profitable business. Her sister, Shirley Wright, is living on and managing her father's estate in High Valley and is making quite a name for herself in the agricultural world. De Leva Robinson is the next guest to arrive and she brings her husband, who owns a large orchard. She has three little ones at home and is very happy with the world. Mrs. Alva Roberts is the next guest to arrive and she brought her husband with her. She will be remembered as Gloria Lay and her marriage was a happy-ending to a high school courtship which started in her Senior year at Union High School. Dorothy McGrath, who still owns the McGrath estate on the old Cove road near Union, arrives next and she is feeling fine and seems to be happy as she sits down to talk with her old friends, Venita and Jo. Gwen Green arrives next and she is married also and has a family of two. She is living in Enterprise where she lived and attended her Sophomore year in high school. Last but not least to arrive is Barbara Trump; needless to say that she picked up this habit of being late while she was in high school and she has not forgotten it yet, we guess.
