1956 SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY We cannot foretell the career of each senior, but after knowing them and working with them in sports, music and in the classroom, we know they will all obtain happiness. It is now 1975 and as we tour Paris, we view the Class of 1956. We started our trip in New York where we boarded an atomic passenger plane at La Guardia Field. Our pilot was none other tnan Captain John Manford Cramer. He had just retired from the U. S. Air Force where he set a new record for breaking the speed of light. At we land in Paris five minutes later we are welcorned by General Jerry Jackson, who was the first to fly to the moon and claim it for France. Hailing a cab, we discover Richard Ori at the wheel of the latest French sports car. He seems to be picking up more female passengers than any other cab driver in Paris. Richard drives us expertly through the crowded streets to the famed Eiffel Tower. Here we watch the slim and muscular Duane Felt climb to the top of the tower, doing his road work for his 100 lb. championship wre tly match. To explain hi3 weight situation, we must add that his petite French wife cannot cook. Since Paris is famous for its' rite clubs, we stop at the French Casino where we find Charlene Wanders in the Can-Can line. I understand she was quite a hit on Broadway before she accepted this fantastic offer in the Gay Psree' Follies. We are served by the head waiter Pierre John Swallow. All tnose dance lessons were not in vain for he is the most graceful head waiter in all Europe. It is uncerstood that he coaches Charlene in her c n-can steps after hours. The next day we explore the famous shops of Paris where we meet the famous French Designer Don Boone, and his model Linoa Cross. The latest fashion designed by the great Mr. Boone is dressed made from wood. His model, Linda, has only one complaint to make about the dresses. The knotholes keep falling out, causing embarrassing situations. Now we are in the Art Museum and meet Larry Leonard and rave over his exquisite modern drawings. He got his start when by accident someone sent in a picture he drew of his n.story teacher. It was mistaken for a modernistic drawing for the Pyramids of Egypt. At the French race way we w tch the daring dteve Day win the final race, in George Robisson's latest built c r. Jteve gained m ich experience in high school drag racing on his airplane landing strip. George's car is the only car in nistory to operate on air and was made from his old International tractor. We stop on a narrow street to watch a French Foreign Legion Unit drill and hear the familiar vcice of Captain Bob Reynolds bark out commands. He has just returned frcm North Africa where he became sea sick from ridin r. camels. During our visit to the Royal Palace, we find our Homecoming Queen, Sandra Martin, in a familiar role, sitting on the Queen's Throne. We hear she is carrying on a social fued with Princess Grace Kelly. 21

Dick Copeland bequeaths his ability to charm women to Melvin Spencer providing Melvin uses it to his best advantage.

Linda Cross and Sandi Martin will their ability to slap goop on the hamburgers in hot lunch line to Harold and Richard, providing they get them as messy as Sandi and Linda did.

Susie Lowe wills her cheer-leading outfit to Delores Dullard, providing she takes the hem up two inches and gets her 120 word shorthand pin by next Spring. Charlene Manders leaves her ability to sleep in the assembly to Ivan Larsen as long as Meyers doesn't catch him, and if Meyers ever does catch him, you will know why we don't want him to. Mark Larsen wills his ability to keep out of trouble to Mary Robinson. Greg Muench bequests his over-abundance of energy to Chuck Nesselroad and said energy i.s to be administered according to demand so far as aforementioned energy is not used in the process of developing his capacity to exercise his brain.
