We are looking through a large telescope and are about to report to you on what has happened in the lives of the 1958 graduates of West Lima High School. Professor Harold McCoy, with his horn rimmed glasses, is working with other noted scientists in perfecting a space ship, Putnik, which will soon carry passengers to the moon. The star of the Carter and Dwyer Circus, Julie Carter, is astonishing world wide audiences with an aerial act in which she hangs five hundred feet in the air by her teeth. The world champion pole vaulter, Wilma Spangler, was seriously injured recently when to her astonishment she discovered, while trying to beat her own record, that she was jumping without a pole. The brilliant young surgion, Pat Allbaugh, met near disaster recently when she accidently removed her patient's heart instead of appendix. The heart was replaced and the patient is now doing fine. Carolyn Muller, who has slimmed down considerably since her high school days, was recently voted Miss America. ' Gregory and Richard Johnston have just taken over the Johnston and Johnston Corporation, and have perfected a new supersonic sticking band-aid. Its success is due to the use of glue, applied liberally to the band -aid. Karen Geddes is now president of S. G. A. fShort Girls Anonymousj At 3 o'clock in the afternoon on station RTJC Waterloo, Iowa, you will hear the soothing voice of Rodney Trappe as he spins popular records on his program Trappe's Corner.
