Class Prophecy for 1975

It's class reunion time for the class of '65. Of course, it couldn't be held anywhere but at Sylvan Lake Resort in the Black Hills. Ten years have elapsed since the class of '65 has graduated from dear ole KPHS.

Now that we're all gathered at Sylvan Lake, and sitting around the fireplace, our original brainstormer, Bill Jamison, comes up with the idea that we should play charade--each acting his life for the past ten years. And naturally, Bill wants to be first. Of course, Bill came alone because he hasn't found a girl to meet his standards yet. But this didn't surprise us because he had given us his viewpoints on marriage ten years ago in government class.

Nancy Jefferson decided to act out all the fun she has been having these last ten years sitting on boss's laps. She had so much practice taking dictation in Mr. Kahler's office that she's become pretty fast.

We see Charlie Kappelman running by the window occasionally. He's still running the mile and he hasn't caught anyone yet.

We then saw some blue hair crawling in the window and immediately we knew it was Karolyn Van Metre. She had so much practice crawling through windows on Sneak Day she wondered if she was still able to do it.

Dick Schiffern is still vigorously working on the 2nd edition of "Poor Richard's Almanac." But he tells us that he is going to sign it as we have always known him: Richard Albert Einstein Schiffern.

Barbara Cook tells us she is happily married. She was always interested in social work, so with her eight children she has plenty of opportunities to fulfill her ambition.

Robert Munger is now a millionaire since he answered the $64,000 question on KOMA: What is a woolymunger?

The next one to perform was Margo Nilson. She gave her abstract mind up to become an officer in the Marine Corps. Since Gomer Pyle retired, she thought it was necessary to keep up the tradition. Her motto: Once a Gomer, always a Gomer.

Tom Thomas tells us he has been divorced 23 times in the past ten years, and is now available again, so watch out, girls!!!!!!

Next to give a charade is Linda Nelson. She came to see us on a motor scooter. This is the first time she has been to the Black Hills since Sneak Day. She decided to bring a smaller vehicle to go around the pigtails on, since buses can cause real problems.

Now we come to the long and short of it: Margaret Mathiesen and Marvel Moles. They come directly to us after the closing of their smash hit, "The 2 M's" at the Coconut Grove. They have to return immediately for a command performance.

Next on the list was Doug Snider. He studied to be an interior decorator, but ended up an inferior decorator. He has now opened his own pizza hut known as Dougie Woogie's--specializing in Lindaburgers.

Now we hear from Marilyn Clay. She opened a novelty shop in Springview called Clay Center. She specializes in potter, of course.

Paul Nelson gets up and demonstrates how he drives his B38. He was so used to flying to Ainsworth and back in high school in his Chevy, that he decided to do it legally.

Doris Patterson now performs. Doris was always the "outdoor type." We look out over the terrace and see her racing around Sylvan Lake in her miniature motor boat.

Now let's guess Sandy Lewis's charade. Sandy always wanted to be a nurse. She was always a "cut-up" in high school. But instead of cutting up she is cutting out paper dollws inthe local sanitarium.

Next to put on a fake performance is Lorraine Eliot Kelly Albee Ross. It seems she has had a little marital trouble, but she's taken back the name Ross, becuse it always won her fame in high school, antd it is still bringing her command performances today.

The next to put on a good act is Gaylord Anderson. Of course, he came with a boutonniere in his lapel.He has to have that flower when he goes to the Black Hills for sentimental reasons, or maybe he has just attended another prom. We find by watching Gayal's charade that he is a big cattle rancher in Gregory county. That part of the country always did appeal to him.

Linda Graesser gets up and gives us her charade of "Hot Off the Press." She is editor of the "Maine Tribune" and has just won the Pulitzer Prize for her plays, "The Follower" and "The Sandpail." I wonder where she got the names for those plays.

Last but not least, by any means, is our D J Dennis Carr. He is working at radio station KRUD in Springview, Nebraska. Maybe it was Mr. Cook's training in high school that got him this good-paying job.

As for Margaret and I, we are still undecided as to which college is best.

Having met our classmates again, we feel our first class reunion was a big success.
