Prophecy X OME time ago, Mr. Loucks, Kon the verge of a nervous breakdownl, began to wonder if his work of trying to bring up the class of '50 would ever have any effect. Prof isn't natural- ly superstitious, but upon finding himself before a sign reading, Mme, Fifi, Fortune Teller-3 flights up, he climbed the stairs and entered a door. He stated his problem to Mme. Fifi and she led him into her room of zee crystal ball and began to tell him of the bright t?J future. I see a theatre, she cried. The curtain, she is opening. Ahl There is the star! She is blonde---she is beautiful---she is Lois Ward. Her partner is the musical comedy man, Sugar Throat Arthur. And there in the orchestra is that great string bass virtuoso, Joan Arndt. I hear a terrible noise. Where does it come from? Why it is Mark Tyoe playing that new instrument, the dishpan. Fleet-fingers Joan, his sister, is presiding at the piano, Next to her on the piano bench is Frit Maida, who has now learned to play the trumpet with his toes. Now the curtain rises on the second act. In the spotlight is the great torch singer, Gerry Tibbitts. Miss Tibbitts was a teacher, but she likes to eatl Replacing Miss Tibbitts on the stage is that famed dancer, Shirley Bush. As the curtain falls, we see the master of ceremonies, Merry Merrill Doxtader, giving a few clever l?J last minute remarks. Now, ' Mr. Loucks, the scene changes. We are in a small house. Sixteen tiny children are grouped around their mother, Winifred Lincourt. The doorbell rings--it is Ed Wardner, come to fix the radio. KHe'll fix it all right!! Ah, there is another person on the scene--it is Catherine Goldthwaite, the nursemaid. She looks frustrated, but very sweet in her uniform. Again, the scene, she change. There is a magnifique hotel, 'The Nash, ' on Street Gibson. The door is opened by that handsome doorman, Stub Trumbull. At the reception desk is Clorinda Pagliaro, the owner of the establishment. Now, in the kitchen we see the chef, Pierre Polansky. In the dining room is a distinguished looking gentleman with a brief case. Why, it is that juvenile court lawyer, Rodney Stewart. Now again, the scene, she change. We are in a large department store---the name is 'Ladies' Economical'. At the art department, three lovely artists are at work. Dian Youker cleans brushes, Marion Davis scours paint cans, and Connie Siver paints signs. In the main office is the owner, Louise Brockett. She is seated by an open window. fThe reason for this is that J ack Schuyler is the manager of the 'Men's Economical', two doors up. They've invented a long range hand-holder for use during office hours. j Also busy in the office are two top-notch secretaries, Doris James and Audrey Cramer. In the main part of the store, we see two lovely ladies purchasing yarn--La Verne and Harriet Knapp. They specialize in knitting mittens in the 'lone star' pattern. This is complicat ed as it calls for one-half star on each mitten. Now, I see the dress department. The model, Dor- othy Pye, is wea.ring the latest creation. She attracts a large crowd of prospective buyers. I can't decide whether they want the dress or the model. I The scene changes again. It is the Main Street of a town. There is an argument. News-boy Bob Delaney, is getting a tongue lashing from Rose Polansky. It seems that last week he .sold only 30, 000, 786 copies of her paper, 'The Dolgeville Scandal Sheet'. My! Who are those strange crea- tures in African outfits? Why, they are 'Bring 'em back crippled' Buckbee and'Drag-em-to-Do1ge- ville-Dead' Trumpowsky, the great hunter-explorers. On the corner is a kind-looking policeman. It is Allan Weir, who is 'special-cop-in-charge-of-getting-kids-to-school'. A nearby sign reads, 'Attention girls! Basketball and Calisthenics lessons given every Saturday--S 100 for 5 hours. In- quire Betty Barragan. ' And now I see a man dressed as Santa Claus who's selling silver-plated Christmas trees with built-in electricity. It is Don Maddocks. He is getting in a taxicab owned by the McGuire-Connor Taxi Service. But, Mr. Loucks cried, there is one more--Mary Youker. Mme. Fifi replied, My three years of French are helping me make my fortune in life. I am zat Mary Youkerf As Mme. Fifi tAlias Maryj announced, There will be no charge for this reading. Mr. Loucks calmly and quietly collapsed. ' 15
