CLASS PROPHECY Ten years is a long time and many things can happen in this length of time. This fact was made clear to me one spring morning as I sat in my kitchen reading the newspaper. It was almost time for summer school vacation, and I decided that as soon as I was relieved of my teaching duties as commer- cial teacher at Madison High School in Denver, Colorado, I would go back to Vanlue, Ohio, and see what ahd become of my classmates in the Class of 1958. The news item that prompted me to make this deci- sion stated that the wife of the admiral commanding our first full-time atomic submarine fleet was hold- ing a tea for the wives of the fleet's crew. The admiral was Gary Hatchg his wife, the former Carol Bright. I already knew what several former classmates were doing, and I must say that they had done' quite well for themselves. First of all, there was the former Julia I-linkle, with whom I'd kept in touch. She had fulfilled her ambition of becoming a first-class secretaryg she was the private secretary to the Pre- sident of the United States. The President was none other than that boy who had always talked of becoming President -- Frank Kitchel. A member of the President's cabinet was another former classmate, Bob Cupp. Bob was the United States Treasurer. That nerve-wracking job during his senior year had paid off! I had also kept track of Martha Hagerty. I always watched for her newest dress designs straight from Paris in Vogue magazine. She was their Paris representative. Shirley Risner had also made a name for herself in the Fashion world. She was Vogue's top model, modeling the creations Martha sent back from Paris. Shirley always did look like a walking fashion magazine. After school was out, I went to Vanlue. I went to the school to see Mr. Hinkle, hoping he could bring me up to date on the whereabouts of my other classmates. I found him just about the same with just a little more distinguishing grey at his temples. He was able to give me the following data: Bill Hannah had started at the bottom of the business ladder but had worked himself up to the posi- tion of president of his own booming oil company which was giving another established oil business some mighty keen competition. Kenny Marshall was also well to do. He had his own kennels -- Kenny's Coon Dog Kennels -- on Route 15. Still another prosperous businessman was Dick Dipert, president of the Bell Telephone Company. Dick had lost no time after graduation in getting that job with the phone company. Barbara Moser was the successor to Micheal of the Waldorf, world-renouned hair stylist. It seems Barb was at the head of her class at beauticians' school. Beverly Wiseley was now a Home Economist. Besides touring the state giving speeches and demonstrations, she also had her own network television show. Nancy Thomas was the Director of Nurses at the Blanchard Valley's new multi-million dollar hospital. Clair Saltzman had his own herd of dairy cattle and also one of the most modern farms in the state. Vanlue people had added to the field of entertainment. No less than four Vanlueites were in show business. Rosetta Tharp, one of the most outstanding operatic sopranos of the day, was preparing for her second tour of Latin America. Pamela Stevenson was the star of a Broadway play now in its third year of running. And to think she might have been a Home ECOHOUHCS teacher! Sh-HOD Shane had S0112 I0 Hollywood and had just recently won an award for being the most persistent actress to reach the City, She had been working for the award for ten years. Darus Bright was now a member of the famous Four Freshmen singing group. Darus had gotten his first big break singing ina quartet at Baccalaureate ser- vices the year he graduated from high school. Marjorie Cook was the airline stewardess for the first commercial flight to the moon. The pilot of the ship was Nial Bushong, former Air Force pilot. Another crewman was radioman Forest Cupp. Esther Fruth was a very successful lawyer. Her Commercial Law class had inspired her so that she had gone to law school. Shirley Fry was the girls' physical education teacher at Vanlue Senior High School. She and her soccor team were preparing for their first world tour. Alan Loader had been the summer replacement for Perry Como for the past several seasons. He was billed, of course, as the singing bar- ber. Melvin Marshall had also been successful. He was the art editor for a leading men's magazine. Leo Blair had been convinced by Mr. Stacy in speech class that a professional public speaker could make a more a more than adequate living. Leo was now touring the courntry speaking to all who would listen and pay well. He was a frequent speaker at the Vanlue Garden Club. Jim Martin was a coach. He had found that good high school coaches were easy to find, so he had switched fields. He was now head coach for Ringling Brothers Circus' professional flea football team. Linden Smith was now Judge Smith of the Carey Municipal Court. His frequent visits there during high school had prompted him to become a judge so that he could rap the gavel and serve the sentence on others. Larry Shaffer was test driver for the Ford Motor Company. He recently set a world's record, he was the first man to run the course asleep behind the wheel. Last but not least, was Professor Floyd Chilcoat. Floyd had recently returned to the United States after a stay of nine years in Russia, observing Russian education. He was preparing to set out on a tour of the United States, telling the people the merits of Russian education. Sitting in the plane on my return to Denver, I decided that the Class of 1958 could feel that they had succeeded in life. Beverly Shull
