Senior Class Prophecy The year is 1975. In her penthouse apartment high above New York City we find Mary Lou Ring, now a famous author. She is assembling the material she has gotten from her trip over the country visiting with and checking on her old classmates of 1960. She plans to write her next book about them be- cause they would make such interesting characters. Following is some of the information she gathered: It was very surprising to see Carol Linnenbringer dressed in the blue uniform of a policewoman. She has married a police sergeant whom she met dur- ing an investigation of the Foristell Elevator robbery. With her trusty gun in her holster and police dog Rifle at her side, she has solved many other cases. Craig Pailer was not too much of a surprise because he was such a suc- cess in high school that everyone expected him to rise to great heights. He is now the executive of a large firm in New York City specializing in muscle- building techniques. He is called Craig Atlas more often than not. Richard Phegley, now treasurer of the United States, credits the FFA for giving him experience in handling money. He tries to make a little extra money for the U.S. treasury by frequent trips to Las Vegas, Nevada. Making good use of the English he learned his senior year is Charles Kraft. He is now professor of English at Vassar College. It seems as though he really enjoys it there, too. The name of Don Eversmeyer is seen quite frequently in the papers these days. Don, being a great rocket expert, is on his way to the moon in a new rocket he has just designed. Who says there is no such thing as a singing barber besides Perry Como? Gary Shipley has proved that there is. He has already won ten gold records and is on his way to winning more. He can also give a good haircut. Jerry Taylor is now a famous newspaper columnist. His column entitled Dear Abby Taylor , gives advice to the lovelorn. Having married and had several children, Marilyn Boehmer has become quite an expert on child care. In fact, she is such an expert that she has become a world-known lecturer on the subject. Melba Klausmeier is another housewife who has gone on to great things. She won the Mrs. America contest this year. After graduating from the school of medicine, Brenda Luckett settled down to being a doctor in good old Wright City. Gerald Schindler decided he wanted to get away from it all so he joined the Foreign Legion. He is really away from it all now in the middle of the Sahara Desert. Rominofffs Restaurant in Hollywood says it has the best chef in the U.S. The chef’s name is Weldon Ball. He learned to cook so well in his home-ec. class. Jim Vogt, Private Investigator. That is the way his cards read. Jim is still investigating the case of who forgot to tighten the screws on the sleigh at the Christmas party in 1959. The Municipal Opera in St. Louis is having one of its best seasons this year. Darlene Fine has sung in several of its productions, and she always attracts large crowds.
