The Class Prophecy of 1957 Friends, Romans, Countrymen, Texans, and Fellow W. V.H.S. 'ers, if you want to get away from the dull, dreary, ways of 1957, come spend an exciting evening on the Eagle Queen Showboat. As you board the Eagle Queen, you can see the following former students of the Class of 1957 from dear ole W. V.H.S. First we shall introduce to you the owner and co-owner of the Eagle Queen. Lola Beard is handling the hostess duties for Kenny Smith captain of the entertainment tub. Now as you come onto the deck you see the famous barber, Ronnie Hakes. He is assisted by Doyle Garwood. Ronnie draws the crowd: Doyle opens the door and pushes them in. After you are in, you can check your hats and coats with Barb Dudgeon who sees that your hats and coats are safe from destruction. lf there is any trouble, it will be taken care of by bouncers Dave Myers, Kenny Smith fdoubling on dutiesl and Lola Beard serving as hostess coming and going. And, of course, at the card tables you will see several card sharks. You will see these dealers drifting from job to job. They are Head Dealer Ronnie Lautzenheiser supported by Rudy Salazar, Ronnie Hakes, and Doyle Garwood fRonnie and Doyle come in to assist when the Queen is filled to the railsl. There is no necessity for a captain since this is the finished product of the shop boys of the Class of 1957. No one ever knew what they were doing in shop all through their school years until they went down to the ST. Mary's River to launch the Queen, the only radar controlled entertainment boat in the world.

On stage in song-bird style is seen and, of course, heard Mary Hurless known as the Singing Dietician. In addition to Mary, there is billed a fashion and dance sensation who has taken the entertainment world by storm. Who else! None other than Elaine Smith. Mary Case handles the cashier duties and cashing of winners chips at the end of the grand tour. Mary also covers the activities of the Eagle Queen for the Boat News, a weekly newspaper printed and edited this rapidly growing journalistic project. Furnishing the music for the drifting and dreaming is that greatest of Rock'n Roll band director, Jack Myers and his Jumpin' Jacks. There are two of the class members that will be absent due to previously planned endeavors. Marion Rickard has taken over business at Middlebury and Dean Vanover has landed on the shores of Tripoli in song: secret mission for the U. S. Marines. These items were noted in the Boat News which came off the press just before the Eagle Queen got under way. You have been on board the Eagle Queen Showboat.
