Prophecy Jack that two of our classmates arc members of his faculty; in a few minutes Jack takes us to Mrs. Paul Querry and Mrs. Tom Croft, whom we remember as Dorothy Creswell and Gloria Bar- nett Dorothy, a bit grey perhaps, but still regal and dignified, serves as guidance counsellor to the girls. Gloria, whose store of historical knowledge always amazed us, is teaching social studies. Not too far away we see a cozy little tea room which is managed by Christine Demoi.se, Patty Skvarka, and Elizabeth Streharsky. Business is good, we sec. And at one of the tables we recognize Gary Black, still eating! Gary teaches mathematics at the near-by university and believes in patronizing his three classmates. Well, while we're in Johnstown, let's look over the town a bit. Look at that sign: “Paul Lucas, Chiropodist”. What’s that mean? Foot-fixer? Oh, he fixes corns and bunions, eh? The bunion business is surely booming—Paul's waiting room is so full that we can t find a seat. His receptionist is his sister Agnes. She doesn't even recognize us—she keeps looking at our feet. Let's turn our travels toward Washington and over to the F. B. I. building. That little character hurrying through the cor- ridor is Harry Korar. Harry has made a name for himself in the department. He is credited with having captured, single-handed, nine of the Ten Most Wanted Men . Harry confided in us that the reason he hasn’t captured the tenth one is because he kinda likes him. In the Marksmanship department of the F. B. L, we see I immy Lightncr performing his marksmanship skill before a group of wide-eyed seniors. Timmy got the idea years ago when he, too, toured the department on his class trip. We sec Bonnie Leavcllc and Margaret llcath in the filing department. They're busy with papers of some kind, so we’ll talk with them later. Look at that beautiful yacht cruising down the Potomac! Oh, it's Larry Williams; he's taking his family and a few friends on a cruise. Larry won a fortune from his uranium fields which he inherited from an unknown uncle. With Larry to entertain his guests are Peggy Houck and Lewis Winfield, internationally known singers. Peg and Lou began singing at R. H. S., remem- ber? Another of Larry's guests is Betty Metz who looks as young and pretty as ever. We see Betty surrounded, as usual, with men. She always wanted a rich husband, so she married a rich sultan from Turkey. Let's journey to the governor’s mansion in Harrisburg to sec that shrewd old politician. Robert Martin. Bob is serving his third term as our governor. He has conducted vigorous cam- paigns—making promises, shaking hands, and kissing babies. One of the governor’s secretaries is Beverly Buckley. Beverly, who doesn't look a day over twenty, is still' full of that pep and vigor which she had in high school.

Class Prophecy Assistunt F.ditor of Chit Chat F. H. A. Treasurer This is in the future—this vision of ours—we are looking into the year of 1975. We see a beautiful golden path, winding over hills, down the valleys, in the cities, and in the towns, and on this path, the seniors making their way, rejoicing and happy as they occupy themselves with their daily occupations, profes- sions, and trades. So go with us into this future, about 18 years from now, and let's see what our classmates will be doing. Dennis Kourke, as president of our class, you have been our sky pilot, and that is your occupation in life. Dennis is a com- mercial pilot and has daily flights to London and back. And from Dennis we learn that our old friend Leon Wible, the learned scientist, is doing well in his laboratory. Leon has perfected the rocketship and is preparing to rocket to the moon soon. On this trip Leon plans to take another of our classmates. Dennis Querry. You remember Dennis—he was always interested in the mysteri- ous. We learn from Dennis Rourkc also that the stewardess on his plane is little Leona Spencer. Leona read so many glamorous stories about air line hostesses that she decided to give it a fling. How old is she? What a question! Didn't you know women never get any older than 35? Well, let's go over the mountains into the West where we sec another of our classmates who has made good. Yes, it's that old science wizard. Ronald Wood, who is head of the Western Reserve Physics department. He is lecturing to a group of stu- dents, but judging from the expression on their faces, Ronald's vocabulary has them as baffled as it did us in high school. Across the way we meet that old rascal of a Rev Howe. Rey owns a string of helicopters which he rents to tourists. He offers to fly us to Herbert Hess, who owns a prosperous dude ranch out here in the West. Herb is growing rich entertaining as paying guests his eastern friends. Herb won the ranch on a television quiz program. Business is so good that he has hired two of his old cronies, Mike Banco and Jack Martin, to take care of his thoroughbreds. Mike, you know, is a veterinarian, and Jack is a “cow-hand —a rich one judging from his golden spurs. Out near Pittsburgh in a plated glass, ultra-modern school building we find Jack Troy. Yes, Jack entered the teaching pro- fession. He is principal of this beautiful school. We learn from F. H. A. “Chit Chat Song Leader Secretary

PROPHECY As we look in on the business world, we spy Jack Dubetz, that smooth talker. Jack has embarked into the world of women’s fashions where he is doing a fabulous business. His fashion designers are Knima l.ou Adams and Annette Gannon Even in high school these girls were always abreast with the latest fash- ions—today they are designers of such fashions. A little insight and love of work took these ladies a long way! We hear that some of our friends have migrated to New York, so let’s take a jaunt there to see what we shall see. Isn’t that Linda Black getting off that plane? Let’s go over and talk to her. Yes, little Linda—as pleasant and fresh as ever. Linda, a psychologist, is just returning from her yearly European excursion. She loves traveling, but she’s glad to get back to G. H. Our cab driver is none other than that old shyster, Gary Lcabhart. Gary knows New York City inside out. but he drives as if he doesn't know which is the “in and which is the “out ! We learn from Gary that Terry Burke manages a little restaurant known as “Terry’s Dive”. We manage a free meal out of Terry who persuades us to stay for the entertainment and are we glad we did! That famous comedy team, which has its own television show, none other than the “Sipes-Kowalchek Simps , really brings the house down! They’re still as silly as ever! As we’re going by Camp Kilmer, we may as well stop and sec Sergeant Robbie Love. There’s Rob drilling that group of new recruits. My, how loudly he yells—sounds just like those sergeants one reads about. In high school I never thought Rob had a serious bone in him! And look over there—it’s Margaret Williams and Della Duvall. These girls are members in the Women's Army Corps. They like army life very much. Nearby Philadelphia we run into Martha Saylor, the little girl in our class who spoke only when she had something worth saying. Martha, who always liked children, manages a successful kindergarten. Anna Pawuk assists Martha with her work; she supervises the playground activities of these little youngsters and enjoys herself immensely. Getting closer home, we see the money-making milkman, Harry Houck. Harry graduated from the Pennsylvania State University where he studied the dairy business. Now he owns a large dairy. Prosperous is Harry—he even skims the skimmed milk! Not too far from our rich farmer is Martin Territo. Marty runs a fine barbershop. He caters to little youngsters by giving free bubble gum with every Saturday special which he advertises as “Marty’s Atomic Haircut Special .
