Listen, all ye people of Bedford, to the words of wisdom from ye the lips of your prophet, who now speaketh unto you what hath been rev Fone unto her, even as it hath been decreed by the powers that be. For it has come to pass that the veil of the future hath been rent in twain, even as it was so rent in the days of the wise prophets of old, and the spirit of Prophecy hath descended from the spheres to envelop my soul with her mystic power. It hath been given unto me to dream strange dreams, and to see strange visions of the glories of the year yet to come. For as I looked into the land of the future I could discern moving among the dim shadows of the peoples yet to be, the familiar shapes of those fair and radiant beings who were once my classmates, now changed and transformed into citizens of the world outside, even as they had long hoped them so to be. And it came to pass that the veil before mine eyes grew yet more and more thin through the intensity of my vision, and behold I could see them, even as if the intervening years were not at all. And it came to pass as I looked into the future, | beheld our President, “Pat” Creasy, in his dignity and majestic bearing, the leader of an inter- nationally famed band. His ambition has led him upward and onward until he reached the pinnacle of success. I looked again and I seemed to see the interior of a large church. Imagine my surprise upon seeing Wilton [arriss, the ““woman hater” of the class of °30 marching slowly to the altar with his third bride, Dovie Gibbs. I happened to find myself in the reception room of a girls’ boarding school. A door to my right opened, and a stern, dignified matron advanced toward me. Upon seeing me the harsh expression on her face disappeared and I recognized my former classmate, Gladys Neal, the successful dean of a girls’ boarding school. And it came to pass that I also looked into professional circles, and in a large office among many men of many minds sat a prosperous lawyer, Vernon Hicks, the boy in our high school days had not yet learned to lie. The scene shifted, | was carried to a large public hall and there saw “Bud” Krantz the World’s famed aviator acknowledging the ovation of the crowd over his non-step flight around the world.

Verily my soul rejoiced as I gazed my last upon Florence Fuqua. | followed my Spirit of Prophecy farther on the quest of things to be. Next I saw the interior of a hospital as I walked down the hall I saw three members of the class of 1930, Thelma Ayers, Hilda Miles, and Margaret Moseley, immaculately dressed in nurse’s uniforms. After I had watched the lights of the hospital fade in the distance, I found myself in a large theatre. A thundering applause made me wonder who the successful entertainers were. With one glance at the stage, I recognized “Tatty”? and “Watermelon,” black comedians. My attention was suddenly directed to a gentleman, dressed in the height of fashion, with a cane on his arm, stepping from an expensive looking car. My Guiding Spirit whispering to me that that was ‘‘Johnnie’? Maupin, but who is still very much worried over his love affairs, but does not have time to straighten them out as he is working on a debate, “Resolved that women should propose to men.”’ But hark, rhythmic sounds of marching in the distance. On close in- spection I discovered a great military formation in progress. I was quite overcome to see Teaford Hatcher now a successful major, reviewing Bedford Home Guards while at home on a leave of absence. Next I happened to find myself in the office of Jasper Stanley now the successful director of a motion picture. I was interested to hear of the new picture just released, “lhe Handsome Lover’’ starring Sherman [Franklin and Lois Updike, acclaimed the most popular actor and actress of the day. Again the scene shifted and I was within a very fashionable beauty establishment, ‘The Elizabethan Parlor’ run by Elizabeth Hardy. I was quite surprised to find [Elizabeth Overstreet and Elizabeth Cheatham her assistants. The Harvard football field appeared before me in all of its glory. I saw a young man hurriedly carrying water to the exhausted players. Seeing his sympathetic face in remembrance of his high school football career, I recog- nized “‘Jess”’ Gillaspie. By this time I was completely bewildered by the facts that had been re- vealed to me. Nevertheless, | determined to make the most of this divine [20] ROR IE RRR EE ER ERE RE RRR ERE RE RRS BER Be Be Be Pe PLATE RER ERE RBBB RRR RR ER ER ER ER ER ER ER ER ER ERR ER ER ER ER ER ER ER aX RERBRBRZRBRRERRZEREBR LEBER BRERA Be revelation. I saw a dressmaking establishment, within which were the best fashions of the day. Moving about directing the clerks was Myrtle Lawless. The memory of Myrtle’s efficiency passed away before I was conscious of one standing before me in all the glory and honor of his position, Carlton Key, now secretary of agriculture, with Kenneth Overstreet as his assistant. And behold the Spirit of Prophecy beckoned to me and I followed. In the distance I spied a care worn woman pushing a baby carriage down the street. She was forced to halt a moment for the four little boys who were following her were engaged in fighting. Something vaguely familiar about the woman caused me to draw near, and to my surprise I recognized Louise Dooley who had married soon after her graduation. And verily, as I beheld this scene thereat, thinking, “Aye, even’ so shall it straightway come to pass with each and all of us,” lo, the scene faded away, the veil was drawn over mine eyes shutting out my vision the Things to Be, and I turned mine eyes to the Things that are, sure that as ‘“‘coming events cast their shadows,” before only goodness and truth and prosperity shall follow all the days that are to come to the fair and talented members of the Class of 1930. } [21] LEE ERE RE RE RE GRR RR RR ee RRL RLELELERLEREZRERERREZRAZREZRER ERLE RRR RR RERERERE a ae a ae a a a at Oat a ae a ae ae ate Oke Pak Se Oe Pe Ses ae RR Ed ERERERERERERERERERERERZRRREZRERRRRAK LEER EREREREREREREREREREREREREREREREREZREZREZRERE IIDYJO [VACNT syjodeuuyy Joyord} “YI A1OYSIY U1vIT Joyoeo} AISIU) Joyoee} AIO STH JAO]T UI 9G OTL Jaseid = [peqjooy poo1OAIp SOU 91, tossayoid sosAyd YI] 9101S Joyovoi JURYIIIW 10}90(] SUIG SUIS IOI WV IOJI[JOI Jol LL JOJV IAOW 10190] SUIM [| ‘UII, Yea y, o}yeNpesr) Joo148 -I9AQ ‘SII OG OL AIOJSIFL SSP ANILSHd NOILIGA NV _ JIBIYOMG,, Genk ig i Vas ainb MY,, «P28s0p 9q II,I,, ,; Mouxy | st@) es PATIOS AU sf 2 Apoqhue 9aS,, _,[oued Aw }08 noX,, _[i1s nok Mes J,, «A UOH,, _Mouy 1.UOp J,, PC leeeeu [ye SAVS ATIVOSN SUITIWUS sulysnyiq SULy[e SUIUULIS) SUIAPNYS YOUdI yf SULApNS asinu ve UUAA Jolyositu UT [IPH quowpsg ua siInqyouay uy asnor] YI apeat WLM SVRATONNAIN GE HE sulIe JJQS SSOUDATPIVINV ISION ssouduin| JoURIT LG SOSsdIp SUT[[IS SYOO] poor) SHV AI9}EL 7 snr] slop] SULApNyS ye} Aqeq WOT GHALON YAHOLV HY amidd() vnony ZINVUY AAS SSHIMV’T NITHNVU aIdSVTII4) AYINVLS ASVAY) Sddl+) UaHSIY qWVN SOLESTEVeES QE EEE EE EE EEE SESE GEE EE GREG RRR ERE EER RR Pied FERRER ERR REE ER ERE RE ERE EER ERE RES HR RRKRBRAZRERERAZRERERZRZRERERZRLRLREZRERELREZR RRR ELEELE LE EE EE EE EE EE UE BEE EE EI JayoRe |, pelliew yor) pe) a aN MV, _AUUNy Ss 3eu4 dey IOP [PS poltieut 4o4) GU PACT [[NS,, polieut yo4) IOUT YH Jodsaxosno FT plojpoq Jo AouIonNy S,Y}[VoOMUOUILUO’) JUIOT ISIO EASE Set Fe , 208 }U0Pp T,, Joyde1s0us}S {uO OF), Jokvid |peqoseq peut plo JIAIIP Xe Joyoro} jooyss Aepuns ISHIV preut plo purqsny poxpodua Fy ANILSHUG Joyove |, ae.

RuTHERFORD, Coach Jack NANcE, Haro._p JArvis, RopERT JOHNSON, HuGH GEERING Litoyp Witt, Howarp CREASY, DELAND MCCLURE Basket-Ball When basket-ball practice was first begun, prospects seemed very bright for a successful team. Creasy, Carter, Witt, Herrell and Martin were the letter men whom Coach Rutherford had from last season. The team after practicing several weeks, seemed to be developing nicely when examinations came along and four of the regulars were taken off the team by the eligi- bility rules. Creasy was the only man left who had any experience but with the keen determination of the midget substitutes and the everlasting patience of Coach Rutherford, the cagemen struggled through an uneventful season.

During the months of January and February about thirty girls were present for practice and play. In the inter-class tournament which closed the season, twenty-six girls were in the line-up. The championship games were played on successive days. The Sophomores were defeated by the Freshmen, they in turn by the Juniors, and they by the Senior team composed of pupils drawn from other classes as well as the Senior class. Letters were awarded to all who participated in the games of the tournament. The intra-mural system is commended to succeeding classes since opportunity is afforded for so many more to take part in this activity than is the case when only one team is developed. In the absence of a school gymnasium, that one in the Presby- terian Church was made available for the girls’ teams. Thanks and appreci- ation for this kindness is hereby expressed. ‘Thanks is also due Mr. O. A. Thomas for coaching and assisting the girls during the season.

The Rotary Banquet ee N April tenth the faculty and seniors were delightfully entertained at Awe supper by the Bedford Rotary Club. This is an annual custom of the S83 club, and eagerly looked forward to by the seniors. The evening was greatly enjoyed by all. The excellent supper and the jolly Rotary so ngs made would-be Rotarians of the whole class, while Dr. Lyle’s gracious wel- come brought realization of what it means to be a senior at B. H. S. After supper a short program was given by the seniors. ‘‘Pat’’ Creasy and Miss Virginia Boan expressed the thanks of seniors and teachers for this expression of the Rotarians’ interest in B. H. S. Louise Dooley gave a humorous mono- logue, and Ward Gillaspie told jokes on various members of the club, the faculty and the seniors. A song to the Rotarians concluded the program.
