pfwplwcul Again it is time to drop the present and think of the future. Let us look at the things the seniors of '5l are contributing to the modern world of 1975. First, we find in the principal's office, the secretary, Viola Wheeler, who tells us that we may speak with the principal, Alice Talton, in a few minutes l Whoever thought Rex Lee and his wife, Betty Harper would live in sunny Florida all winter. Oh well he can, he owns Bartex Spinning Company. Science indeed was an asset to Laura Lee Barbour. She is now one of the laboratory technicians at Walter Reed Hospital. We see on the school bulletin board a sign which proudly announces, President Gilliam Underwood will address the Beta members of the Clay- ton chapter Monday, November Z3, l975. Mrs. Charles Stevens, the former Betsy Canady, takes a great interest in the school. I guess it's because they have twelve children attending! Well, here we find poor Charles Stewart concentrating on his plans for an oxygen bomb. He has been working on it for seventeen years. My, what a car! This is Jimmy Gordon's original hot rod, however, he is designer for General Motors. Jean Daughtry, our thought to be nurse, changed her mind and is now modeling for Macy's in New York. A glance into the 1975 newspaper and we read, Marjorie Ford, soloist, gives her seventh concert in the Metropolitan Opera. Tickets are on sale now at Jimmy Barbour's Mus ic Shop on Fifth Avenue. Miss Reel, our former English-Spanish teacher, has retired and Mary Lee Johnson has taken her place. Ruth Sherron is now playing the main role in MGM'S Return to Clayton. I hear that Senator Joyce Ellis and Ambassador T. G. Barbour have been attending quite a few dinners at Joyce's home in New York. L.exine's future turned out quite differently, although she finds being a maid for the president a pleasant job. The president of the Grey Hound Corporation, Troy Norris, is recuperat- ing in Rex Hospital from a heart attack. His nurse, Claudia Carroll is stand- ing by his side. Whit Bain, one of the best druggists in the U.S., is resting up after visit- ing his drugstores in Chicago and San Francisco. Betty Edwards, who after twenty years of teaching decided that marriage is good, even in old age. We read now in the newspaper that Charlotte Truelove and Mr. H. El. Jones are honeymooning in Florida after twenty seven years of courtship. Janie Grace is modeling for Jean's in Raleigh. You'd never guess that she only models Jantzen bathing suits. So ends the prophecy for the Seniors of '5l. Seriously, whether we are doing these things in 1975 or not we are wishing each other a successful fu- ture' Lexine Thompson Prophet
