SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY (Concluded) The next witness was Congresswoman Shirley Eleanor Coleman. Miss Coleman has just completed an exhausting four-day filibuster to keep the Republicans from passing a bill for the new Redeal Plan. Her testimony about Joe's upstanding character (whenever anyone is near to hold him up, or hold him back, I might add) was convincing, but not half as convincing as Mary Crow, the next witness. Mary is Editor of the new fashion magazine, Milady. Her snappy clothes caused quite a sensation in the courtroom. Next came Bettem High Wild Bill Esselstyn, a very old and dear friend of our pal Joey, Bettem , the fixer for all sports where a bet can possibly be laid, is little known in these Reno parts, so far be it from me to run down his character. If only he could fix this trialJ Next was Louise Tolar, a professional lady-tramp, who after an exhausting hike (to say nothing of the swim) around the world went into seclusion for a long rest. She came out only because for her dear friend Joe she would do anything. And now a person ot v orld fame. She hears from people all over the world. Bringing their sorrows to her, they come from every direction. She irons out people's lives through her newspaper column, and brightens their horizons with her Is Your Heart Lonely? Club. Most people know her as Dry Your Tears, Everything Will Be All Right Jaijey Center. Her testimony was received well because she said Joe was one of her most respected members. The next witness was the energetic assistant to the assistant vice-president of the W.C.T.U., Miss H. P. Young. Her testimony backfired because Joe came to court smelling of alcohol, only it seems it turned out to be rubbing alcohol. Joe was feeling rather low at this period because he wasn't getting as many you-poor-man glances as he felt were necessary for the good of himself and his bank account. Next, in bounded gymnastics director of the Bend-Down Club, Mildred Penney. Her testimony was of excellent value, but after the court had done fifty sit-ups their resistance was gone and they had to accept it. Joe found all but two of his dear old (how we hate that word) classmates. He found the Pauline Rauch in Cheyenne at the annual round-up. She makes it her habit to be where the money is, and helps the people get rid of it with her slight-of-hand tricks. Yes, that gal knows her marked cardsi It seems the judge knew Pauline previously, so her testimony was of little use. Joe's last chance was Dorothy Farrens, a most respected citizen and Democrat, but it seems that the warden couldn't possibly part with her. She's the best button-hold maker in the whole prison. Well, Joe's cause was lost and he had to part with some of his money, but he is consoling himself with a cute little hat-check girl. Undoubtedly she will become the tenth Mrs. Joseph Correa.
