hammock rn whrch I lay Gradually my eyelrds closed and I was unconscrous rn the arms of Morpheus During this period I dreamed that rt was the year 1968 and I was seerng all the members of the class of 1954 Marlene had become one of the Powers grrls Her beautiful harr and even features have made her one of the most sought after harr stylrst models her trme berng well occupied rn going to the large crtres where harr stylrsts convene and demonstrate therr styles Buster had settled down soon after hrgh school He had worked so hard and farthfully at Sky Line that he soon bought a part rnterest rn rt and frnally the whole busrness Freda had wanted to frnrsh school before they were married but Buster convrnced her that she drdn t need any higher educatron to spend hrs money Now they wrnter rn Florrda and summer on the Great Lakes and take occasronal trrps to Europe and Hawarr Shrrley Koellrng of course had married Stretch but rnstead of settlrng down she had followed hrm around the country and world where ever hrs mrlrtary servrces took hrm When he was frnally grven a post at West Pornt she was really happy because here she could get a posrtron rn the school remember she drd quite a brt of substitute teaching during hrgh school Of course she can t teach at West Pornt rtself but rn the school marntarned for the chrldren of the personnel of the post Phyllrs became one of those slrm and slrnky fashron models and was swallowed several of them whole Thrs made her look so lumpy that she had to grve up her chosen professron and rn place has Joined a crrcus wrth the trtle The Lumpy Lady Mary Beth has become a sports promoter and trarner She was leader of a colony of Man Haters but gradually changed to the trarnmg of grrls rn the frne art of protectrng themselves and from that to promoting frghts between women wrestlers One of the most promrsrng of these rs her class mate of W C H S Sally Smrley Sally became rnterested rn this actrvrty whrle rn hrgh school but drd her trarnrng then wrth Norton and Donnre mostly but occasronally wrth Buster Raymond and .Tunro And would you belreve rt she finally marrred Donnre They had both had that urge for a long trme but were both too stubborn to admrt rt Donnre had rntended to enter the Mrnrstry but hrs assocratron wrth Norton had shown hrm that he lacked control over hrs emotrons and so he concentrated on photography He rs a great help to Sally rn her profession as he takes many unusual prctures of her and publrcrzes them whrch helps make her one of the most popular wrestlers of her sex Norton continued hrs ways of W C H S days and went from grrl to grrl untrl he frnally realized hrs rnabrlrty to settle on one so he entered the priest hood and contrnues to hold them spellbound wrth hrs words of eloquence You remember he was always rather long wrnded quite successful at it until she got tickled one day while eating peanuts and Raymond went to school and speclahzed ln Journalxsm He was selected to become a rr-ember of the ed1tor1al staff of one of the country s leadmg newspapers and h1s flrst hand knowledge of all the dlves and nlght spots make htm well quallfled to wr1te ed1tor1als concernlng then' w1cked ness And do you know who 1s Mrs Welge none other than Nancy She was so heartbroken when Norton declded to glve up the world that she was on the pomt of su1c1de when Raymond found her poxsed on the edge of a balcony outstde 1 roof garden cocktaxl bar He was able to persuade her that I1fe was st1ll worth lxvmg and that all men dld not have Norton s hxgh ldeals The result IS a happy fam1ly of Mother Daddy
