Prognostication “Stay a moment, Stranger, and gaze with us into this crystal ball. Ah! Now ' allow it to trans¬ port you into the future to view the respective occupations of our erstwhile graduates of the class of June ’26. Quiet!—what’s that faint object ? It looks like a base¬ ball stadium. As I live, it is! Who’s that at bat? Yes—no—it is Santora, the wonder player of Tech long ago and there’s Wal¬ dron giving Philips on third the signal to keep close for a bunt. Well, well, hoodathunkit? “Watch—the scene changes— there’s a fellow crashing into a mob. Looks like Wyzlanski, Tech guard. He plays the same position on the B. M. T. Who’s that bulky looking individual with the horn-rimmed glasses try¬ ing to chastise the brute? It’s Bob Jones w-ho wrote poetry and played football as a side line. “We are now transported to a Turkish Bath; and—yes sir— there are Newton, Henninger, and Lisle working as rubbers. They swam for Tech in ’26. Good¬ bye baw-th-—hello bank. There’s Blakely at the door. His coat collar proclaims him to be night w-atchman—he used to haul in the dough in Tech’s Bank. “Who’s that fellow- in the classy, up-to-date 1966 Ford? Looks like Artie Mitchell, who worked on the G. O. S. B. staff. He’s head of the big chain grocery stores—runs a correspondence school on the side. “In the rear part of a stationery store stands Walsh. He’s the stock boy—got his experience in Tech’s Supply Room. Here comes Nemiroff trying to sell a set of Etiquette Books. Well, what else could one expect from a former Book Room man? “And now rising like the ap¬ paritions in Macbeth, we see three managers: H aggerty managing the Olympic Tennis team—used to manage Tech’s tennis team when Jagde swung a mean racquet; Humer—he’s the one asking San¬ tora to hit the apple over the fence—w ' as in Tech’s dugout in ’26; Carl Less who manages the Celtics did the same work for Tech when Podaris and Hymes played basketball. “Say, can you see that fellow running around in his underwear, aw r ay in the background? Oh yes! That’s Johnny Knobel; he w-as a big track man in the old days. “Well, friend, that’s all you can see of the future now but on payment of another dollar I will show ' you all the other celebrities of that never to be forgotten class of June ’26. . . .” The Survey is grateful to the Senior Class Survey Committee for their valua¬ ble assistance in preparing Senior material. 18
