There’ll no doubt be many tears. And yet--there’11 be the smiles too To help us through the '.ears. We’ve often shirked our duty, (And history will repeat). But all in all we’ll try out best, With each challenge that we meet. We’ll always have our memories, Of our carefree high school day's, When hom and Dad were always there. To encourage and to praise. But soon we’ll all be on our own. And scattered near and far, Taking one step at a time Always reaching for our star. Many stars will ne’er be reached. All cannot suceed. But as we travel life’s highway, We’ll try to follow our creed. For there’s no satisfaction In work that’s ju3t half done. So if there carries a ci.ance to lead. We’ll try to be the one. by--Evelyn Beach LAST TVLL AND TESTA?

CLASS PROPHECY OF 1952 Beginning my prophetic journey I find myself in the city of New York in 1970. I have just started my first extended vacation since taking over the duties of head nurse at Bellevue Hospital here in the city. Naturally needing a new wardrobe I decided to go shopping. I i entered Saks Fifth Avenue store and asked to be shown to the ready-to-wear department. Reclining in a chair as I was watching the mannequins j model the clothes, I suddenly find that one mannequin looks vaguely familiar. Asking to look mors closely at the dress she was modeling I inquired as to her name. To nry surprise I found she was Margaret Gadson, a former classmate of mine. I invited her to lunch with me so we could talk over old times. As we were enjoying our lunch we proceeded to discuss our former classmates. She said she had recently been on Michigan State Campus and had noticed a man carrying a large briefcase and with a familiar walk racing across campus. I inquired whom she had seen and she related it had been Robert Gage. She said he was now a bachelor professor at the college but still enjoyed flirting with the coeds. Talking to him she found that Arthur Lee Clutter and Bob viere co-partners in A Bureau of Correspondence for the Lovelorn. You remember Arthur's problem solving mind back in high school. We continued to reminisce of our former classmates. I asked her if she had heard the new singer, Teddy Martin, on the radio? She replied that she had. Much to her surprise I told her it was really Ted Cholometes, the guy with a voice from our class. It seems he was a nember of the Navy until discovered by Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts and was rapidly becoming another Johnny Ray. Continuing our conversation she told me Virgil McFall had dedided he liked school bettor than he thought and was now Superintendent of Fhite Pigeon High School. She also revealed that Mr. Ilanchett had retired from school to his farm near Coopcrsville and now spent his tine entertaining his grandchildren. Te found that Pat Tavernier was married to a navy officer and with her three children was traveling over the world. Also that Joan Tavernier had married and settled down near the city of Mottville and spent her time commanding the chauffers of her fleet of 20 Buicks. Evelyn Eeach, I found, was giving up her careers as head nurse at St. Luke's Hospital in Chicago to marry the chief surgeon of the hospital. We discovered the cream we were using for our coffee was from that most famous dairy of Michigan owned and operated by Enos Foss with the help of his wife and children. Conversing further we found that Charles Rudloff had married and settled down on a farm near Middlebury with his wife and five children Charles has envented a device to grow corn without even planting it in the ground. You remember how am' itious Charles was in high school. She remembered that Don Cast had become another famous Bigger O'Dell in the city of Sturgis and had a booming ‘‘ait not very lively j business. class prophecy cont'd I told her I had read an intcrvicw of Ted Krull' s that had appeared in the pa or. He is no1, coaching the Los Angles Hans Foot- ha.ll twain hut rrs formerly one of the Greatest stars they ever had. c discovered that Margie Ferguson after all her traveling and studying in colleges all over the world has settled do: n as a rivatc secretary to the Secretary-General of the United Nations. Romeriber, I2r. Dury said this would be a food position to obtain. She said L'o'an Schulthics and his wife vere running the largest and nost prosperous dry-clean .ng business in St. Joseph Countp. Then we found that For the Kramer was the most scientifically advanced cf all. It seems she spends her tine traveling back and forth between the cart!: and Mars in a rocketokip invented hy her hue’ and arid financed V her. v'e discovered tine vac graring short and decided to depart, promising that we r ovld lunch more often. class history cont'd The ones not returning to school as sophomores on September fifth, in 19h9, wore La Vaughn Aukcr, Archie Carper, Doris Eastorday, .hrthur Green, Doreen Lcoth end Helen Pearson. Hebert Niece was the only new comer to our class but he left durinf the year. As vre drov still nearer to the end of oin1 school days, ve became Juniors. On Septomber fourth, in 1950, !Ir. Dury counted noses this tine. Dorothy Leonard had moved and was not in our class. There were no nevr members. During the year Jack Skcels, Vonnie Leeth, and John Saunders left. Then on September fourth, in 1951, some eager and some not all the now seniors managed to ret to school on time. To found that our class had not dwindled, since last spring. I!r. Ilanchctt took our enrollment end. the following vere present; Evelyn “bach, Don Cast, Tod Cholomoteg, Arthur Qluttcr, Doris Easterday, Margie Ferguson, Enos Foss, Margaret Gadson, Robert Gage, June Holm, Bertha Kramer, Ted Krull, Charles Linihan, Virgil McFall, Marilyn Rentfrov, Charles Rudloff, Doan Schulthics, Rosemary Shultz, Joan Tavernier, and Fat Tavernier, Then during the early part of the year Aosemary Shultz, Doris Easterday, and June Holm left our class. So having started out in the kindergarten v ith 2.3 members and having a few come in and more cropping out, our class now has 16 members - ho ’ ill be the. graduates of 1952. class will cont'd Do, Tod Krull, Ted Cholomctcs, Charles Rudloff, Virgil LtcFall, Don Cast, and Robert Gage, loavc our eldLll cf playing football to the players of the coning year so that kite Pigeon nay keep the Tomahawk. b'c, the Senior Class, give anc! bequeath unto the Junior Class our desls'in. the bac’.: of the study hall and all our just debts. Do, the Senior Class, give to each teacher a. bottle of Tintair to get rid of ary gray hairs that we may have caused in our 13 years of school. 1? CLASS HISTORY On September 5th in the year 1935, twenty-three little brains were set to work. Y.Tien the kindergarten t achcr. Miss Naomi. Mast, set about trying to find our the names of hor class she found the following; Joyce Bov.cn, Theodore Cholometes, Doris Easterday, Margaret Gadscn, Donald Garver, Arthur Green, Claude Hawkins, June Holm, iertha Kramer, Virgil McFall, Mary Max, Charles Linihan, La Verne Pridgeon, Marjorie Roderick, Charles Rudloff, John Schrock, Jack Skeels, Pat Tavernier, and Barbara Yunv r. Latecomers to the class were: Tod Krull, Dora Bcllairo, Marvin Reed and J. R. Hartman. During the year June Holm, Mary May, Claude Hawkins and J. F.. Hartman loft us. As wo left our kindergarten there were only nineteen in ou. class. Our teachers from the first grade through the sixth grade were: first grade—Kiss Mankinen: second grade—Miss Zcluff, third grade— Mi's Allen: fourth grade—Mrs. Girton; Cur fifth grade class vras divided, some were in Mrs. Girton's room and some were in Miss Ohls's room sixth grade—Miss Ohls. By the time re left the sixth grade we all thought xrc were pretty grown up, we thought that beginning with seventh grade re would be high school students. VJo soon found out that everyone considered us as mere Junior High kids. There were thirty-one starting in the seventh grade. They were: Noble Anglmyer, Evelyn Beach, Donald Cast, Theodore Cholometes, Doris Master-day, Enos Foss, Margaret Gadson, Rjtert Gage, Donald Goings, Arthur Green, Marvin Hawthorne, Ann Hibbard, June Holm. Earnestine Jacobs, Bertha Kramer, Ted Krull, 'Doreen Leeth, Vonnie Leeth, Charles Linihan, Virgil McFall, LuAn Noice Douglas Peters, Marilyn Rentfrow, Wallace Reynolds, Dorl Ridenour, Robert Rupert, and Pat Tavernier. Those who came into the class later on were: Richard Hummel, Allen Tfrigglesworth, La Vaughn .vuker, and Olive Lemon. Those who left during this year were: Deri Ridenour, Robert Rupert, Ernestine Jacobs, -nd Allen TTrigglcsvrorth. There were thirty one leaving the seventh grade at the end of the year. Mrs. Hanchctt was our class sponsor. On September first in 19U7, when Mr. Morrison took roll call he found the following were new to our Gth grade class: Archie Carper, Marjorie Ferguson, Helen Pierson, and Jack Skccls. Noble Anglnyer, Ann Hibbard, Marvin Hawthorne, and V’allacc Reynolds, did not return from the seventh grade. New students were: Dorothy- Lononard., Dean Schulthies, and Floyd Sumney, Hugh Dean Stevens left during the year. Cn September sixth in 19h0, the new freshman class was directed to the Home Lc. room as Miss Schmidt was our sponsor. As Miss Schmidt looked over the faces o.t her freshman class she found that Donald Goings, Douglas Peters, Dorl Ridenour, and Floyd Summey had not return od to school. Manuel Munoz was the only new face in our class but he left soon after school started. Having survived all the ordeals of our freshman year we left with the thoughts of returning as sophomores and only three more years of school.
