Margaret Gerdeman looks very glamorous in the lastest fashions. She has changed husbands almost as regularly as she changed her wardrobe. She is at present married to a New Zealand sheep rancher but you never know what tomorrow brings when you re speaking of Margaret. Jerry Good now swings around the clock as DJ on station WOW-TV. He, himself, has made two hit records, the first, Putsy and Puddin, and the second, ’’Dimples.” This completed the roll of the 62'ers and just in time, too, because just then the intercom announced that all earthbound passengers should assemble at the launching pad as ’’Blast off would be in one hour. We, the Members of the Class of 62, having arrived at the threshold of life and at an age when we must put childish things behind us, do hereby will and bequeath the following: I, Dick Fowler, will my little dab of brillcream to Jack Hurt; my week-end research projects to Eddie Ockel; my rack of muscles to Kenneth Webbink; and Linda Rudd to Paul Martin—maybe he can out- talk her—I couldn't. I, Joyce Harr, being one of the three monkeys, Hear no assignments, See no assignments, Tell no answers (Doug and Jerry are the other two), will my place to Weber Gaskin (Sandy and Belle would make good companions.) I, Mary Knisley, will to Irma Abrolat my slender figure, my appeal to the boys, and my ability to trespass on Mike Quinn's dad's property. I, Doug Gerdeman, leave my startled expression and innocent looks, along with my vast and deep know- ledge of mathematics, to Jim Reeds. May his mother find them helpful. I, Walter Mozee, will my extreme height and basketball ability to Weber Gaskin (sleep before midnight is prescribed for both). I, Tom Jones, will my ability to make friends easily and influence teachers to Raymond Boehmer. I, Jerry Good, will my ability to arm in the halls without being caught to Johnny Prior. One condition— just don't be arming you-know-who. I, Bill Bockhorst, will my deer season absent permit to Paul Martin so he can hunt wolves. Seems we already have the same average in successful trophies. I, Margaret Gerdeman, will my deep interest in the subject of Biology to Ruth Truitt. 'Nuff said. I, Ronald Gruenefeld, leave my ping-pong ability and my loud and rough ways to Johnny Prior. I, Marianne Haller, leave my hourglass figure and form-fitting dresses to Lois Johnson. I, Marvin Henke, bequeath my ability to find a new place to park after each ball game to whoever can find them, 'cause I'm not telling. I, Carroll Phegley, will a package of lemon drops to Marvin Woods to use during a concert; I also will to Jennifer Jones my Cheerleader's uniform. 12

TOM JONES WALTER MOZEE EDWARD DIFANI Class Reporter 3; Mixed Chorus 4: Glee Club 4; Junior Play 3 Baseball 1: Basketball 1: Glee Club 1.2.3,4: Mixed Chorus 3.4: Robed Choir 4: Planned Progress 1. Glee Club 4: Mixed Chorus 4; Wentzville, Mo. 3. Ladies and Gentlemen, it gives me great pleasure to see that all thirteen members of the class of 62 have been able to meet for our twentieth reunion. Not only have we succeeded in that goal but we have all traveled great distances to meet—we are the first group to choose the recently completed Earthview Moontel, located on Milky Avenue, Satellite City, the Moon, where each unit has its own launching pad— and to think that it is operated by none other than Doug Gerdeman—Oh, well, you remember he always did have moments when he was Rar Out.” Tom Jones reports that he is head master at a school of fencing. Remember way back in 1961 when he and Verlin Gibson fought a duel over Faye Stonebarger? Joyce Harr leads a quiet life. She is married and lives in the first mobil home with eight rooms— built especially for her and Ronald to accommodate their four children. Dick Fowler is billed in Tiajuana, Mexico, as Ricardo Fowlero—the Gringo Matadoro. He was quite a bull-thrower in high school, too—remember. Carroll Phegley is still Carroll Phegley. She had several chances to change this but always got so embarrassed and blushed so red that the boys thought she meant Stop” so they never finished the question. Bill Bockhorst is a navy career man. He is serving his 4th hitch in service and is now commanding officer of the U.S.S. Sharon—which he considers quite a dreamboat. Marianne Haller was a lady wrestler for several years until she married. She now has twelve lovely daughters and was recently voted Mother of the Year.” Ronald Gruenefield resigned recently as Manager of the Hawks Basketball team to take over the same position with the Harlem Planet Jumpers (formerly Globe Trotters) whose star performer is Walter Mozee. In one comedy play Walter rolls himself up inside an oversize basketball and is tossed around the court—when they try to dribble, the ball bursts and Walter jumps out. Mary Knisley writes an advice to the lovelorn column in the Painter's Store Gazette. She has written several love stories using the pen name Baby.” Marvin Henke was appointed Secretary of Agriculture but had to refuse because it interfered with his personal appearance tour as the Mr. America of 1982.” Before this he had operated a series of parking meters in the Wright City cemetery for use after ball games.
