A small and quavery voice I hear Coming from someone we all love dear. Petite and pretty, chick and neat, Sally Pucka’s quite a treat. The girls all go for his muscular build; Many a position in their hearts he has filled. If there are those who like to be teased, Wayne Reeder should make them very much pleased. June Sculley in her friendly ways, Will make people happy to the end of her days. She plans to be a receptionist when she gets through school; Sincerity and simplicity will be her life long rule. Shirley Seegers so neat and keen, And all her talents are easily seen; Shte seems so jolly the whole day long, And does her Home Ec . with a song. Allen Stembel, known as Sheeny to us, Causes much commotion and fuss; But when at a ball game, and he ' s on the floor, For baskets we need worry no more. Larry Thomas seems to be Quite interested in making history, He plans one day to own a ranch We ' re all hoping he gets his chance. John Tillema is our working man; He putters about whenever he can. He makes those old cars rarin ' to go; There ' s nothing about cars he doesn ' t know. Aladena Whitaker deserves a hand, For she finally hooked her man. She wears her diamond with joyous pride, She ' ll make him such a charming bride. Richard Wright is usually studious and quiet, But get him started and he ' s quite a riot. What he likes best is to hunt and fish, Success in life we know is his wish. 18

Lithe and active and lots of fun, John Kopchik alway’s ready to jump the gun; His is the most impish smile that we know; In life as in school he ' ll never be slow. Robert Lykins, whom we admire, Of jokes and pranks he ' ll never tire; He always has a trick or two, That he is ready to play on you. Louise McCarty, so clever and bright, Her work is always done just right; She always seems to know the score, Who could ask for anything more. Here ' s someone who is liked by everyone, A swell personality mixed in with fun; He’s full of humor from his head to his toes, Yep! This is Arthur Green as everyone knows. With a dimple in her cheek and a twinkle in her eye, A little round face and her hopes set high, Phyllis Miller will have the fellows galore, If she uses all of her charm and allure. Doris Misch, so quiet and coy, Is always seen with a certain boy; She ' s always willing to do a good deed, To help some classmate who is in need. He ' s willing, likable, and light-hearted. Great will be our loss when he ' s departed. John Neely needs no coaxing from a soul To do his part in life ' s long tiring pull. Watch those dashing, daring eyes, That quickly scale you down to size. Easily a man ' s emotions she ' ll inflame, Betty Owens, that ' s her name. Karen Deerberg, full of fun, Always cheerful, never glum. She is really quite the clown, Never willing to settle down. Aurelia Plaga, one of our talented few, Can play a piano and saxaphone too. Her singing is great, she ' s really grand; She ' ll soon be famous throughout the land. 17

Class Prophecy The time is the year of our Lord, 1964, in the month of February. The Diace? You ' ll find out later. What a beautiful room: exclaimed the young matron. ' How did you ever swing this deal, Karen . .. . . It was simple, you know how much influence my fiancee has with the government. He told Roy to come up here and he’d give him a lot of publicity as well as a few campaign friends. Of course Sally helped him to arrange the deal. , . Gee I think it’s wonderful. A class reunion and a Lincoln Day dinner all wrapped up into one I And all those celebrities! Wow! Terry Moore, Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable, President Roy Bennett, Vice-President Margaret Chase Smith, and of course our Secretary of Agriculture Jerry Grube as well as our home state first lady Senator, Sally Pucka. Don’t forget Shirley Seegers, she’s head of all 4-H work in Indiana now . Of course, how could I . ,f Look, here come Wayne and Jane Reeder.” Oh yes, they were going to come on the same plane with me, but they had to cancel their flight at the last minute. Their mother took sick and they had to find another baby sitter. Imagine it would take a while with six children. I ' m sure Jane didn ' t have any trouble. She knows more people. How are Wayne and the Chicago Bears coming along? Why he ' s their star half-back now. I knew he had it in him. I remember he won all our games for us back 2 l t W heatf ield As I live and breathe! Angenette Gorter . ' I haven t seen her since we graduated. Her mother told me she ran a hair dressing salon in Lafayette. Leave it to Angenette. I knew she ' d make good. But she can ' t compare to you and June. Not only do you have a fashion shop catering to the elite of Park and Fifth Avenue, but a millionaire boy friend besides. Yes, isn ’ t it wonderful. Soon I’ll be Mrs. Karen Vanderbuilt the III. How about June? Didn ' t you know? June ' s going steady with one of the Rockefellers. My, what a promising prospect! By the way, I read in the Chicago Tribune the other night that You, Aurelia Plaga, were voted one of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra ' s most valuable players. Isn’t it grand! I received a cash bonus of $5,000 for the honor. What a handsome couple over by the window! Did you see them on television the other night? I think they ' re as good as Lucy and Desi used to be. Who ' d ever think that Ray Ballard and Beverly Allen would have their own program called, Bev and Ray. Don ' t you envy them? Owning a 35 room mansion in Beverly Hills, California; with a golf course in the back yard, a private swimming pool for each member of the family and a polo field in the front? Oh, I don ' t know, I like my penthouse very much. The only trouble is that it is so high up that it frosts too soon and kills my vegetables before I know what’s happening.
