'OP GC oNE day in l975, sitting in my ultra modern 20,000,000 volume library, I was reading the daily comics. As I turned from Pogo to Lil Abner and began reading old man Mose s predictions, I started to get drowsy. The next thing I knew the paper came alive and out of the iumbled characters emerged old man Nose himself. He must have known that I had been curious as to the outcome of my classmates' careers. I asked him if he would elaborate on the present and inform me on the results of their ambitions. He agreed to do so and began concentrating. The first members of the class of '54 to come to view were those living in the immediate locality. Our first perception was the sight of Tony Sabruno behind his huge desk in Wickliffe Post Office working diligently at his newly commissioned iob of Postmaster. Next we saw John Armbruster who after four years of engineering college emerged to be the brilliant engineer on the little train at Euclid Beach. As we progressed we saw sitting in his shabby little dimly lit office, Jim Cromie, the famous Ninth Street bookie, and perched upon his lap we saw his noted secretary, Joanne Piacente. While in the locality we saw Clara Ruff, alias Bubbles La Rue, the now famous bubble dancer. In the first row staring wide-eyed, we saw Bradley Bliss getting new ideas for his new invention of transparent fans for fan dancers. As our vision reached the outskirts of Cleveland our last view was that of Janet Brunetti who was involved in her special- ized job of locating positions for holes in bowling balls. As our vision broadened we saw Sebastian, Obtuse La Spina busy at his Iife's project in the laboratories of Ohio State University crossing a chicken with an octopus to obtain a chicken with eight drum sticks. From the beautiful campus of O.S.U. our perception wandered to the space ship city, Detroit, where we encountered the brilliant Doctor of Dentistry Willy Nass who was filling cavities in false teeth at Babies' Hospital. Beside him we saw his attractive nurse Nancy Tomburello iniecting novocaine into the false teeth. From Detroit we progressed to the auto racing capital of the world where we saw Bill, l'll take'm on the turn , Shoultz taking first place in is souped down model V40 Whizzer in the field of midget autos. Bill admits that his success was largely due to Rita Costello who was doing an efficient iob of managing his affairs. From the cement racewalls of Indianapolis we moved to the old Kentucky hills where we saw Rodger Johnson selling stills with safety valves to bootleggers. Leaving Kentucky and arriving at the broadcasting capital of the world, Radio City N. Y. , we say Miss Jean Dial Tone Morrow working for the Listerine Co. utilizing her beautiful voice for the gargling sound in their Advertisements. From the Broadcasting Capitol we went next to the indoor sports capitol, Madison Square Garden where we saw Eddie Asbridge, the star forward of the Kukamonga Lakers. As we left we saw a large billboard advertising the fighting fury of the paper weight class, Carmen, Canvas Back, Latessa defending his world championshi title. Next we stopped on Madison Avenue where we talked to Jerr MelIowtone Paternoster, who had finally achieved his life's ambition of taking the muffle out of muf- flers. As we walked further down the street we were almost run over by our old classmate Arlene Rogge, pushing a six-deck- er baby carriage containing a half dozen little red-headed boys. The next place we visited was Coney Island where we were welcomed by Mariellen McKee who was operating the Cone Island Concession Co. As we made the rounds of the park, we came upon Warren Wissman who was chaperoning in their fabu- lous tunnel of love. As we left the main gate, we came upon the eastern terminal of Little Fill's transcontinental taxi serv- ice, consisting of one beat-up '47 Dodge, complete with elevated seat. This blossoming gold mine was owned and operated by Miss Filly Picciano. As Filly was preparing for her next westward trek, she decided to drlve us to Insanity, our next des- tination. While on our way we saw Betty Carroscia who was now in charge of a physical education class at Notre Dame. We left Betty to her iob and as Filly turned on her radio to listen to her favorite soap opera, John's Wife's Other Husband ylhich originated live out of station IGAB, we recognized the familiar voice of Josephine Nasca, portraying the mother-in- aw. 2I
