 FALLS CITY HIGH SCHOOL Prophecy A time machine has been invented by ETHEL LEE BURDICK and ROBERT GOLDSMITH. They have made several successful trials and have compiled a report of their expeditions into the year 1952. Their report follows: We stepped off of the machine, and a cab stopped beside us. We were surprised to note, as we entered the car, that the driver was none other than MILTON FIENE. He drove us to the Valintine, a mammoth hotel in the heart of the business district of Falls City. Our cab was met by HAROLD WEDDLE, the doorman. He showed us into the lobby of the hotel, where we were greeted by the desk clerk, CLAUDE CLAUS. When we applied for rooms, he informed us that there were none, since the annual Fireman’s Ball was being held with ROBERT GODFIRNON as fire chief. We became angered at being refused a room by our schoolmate, so we asked to see the manager. We found, upon his arrival, that it was none other than KEITH VOLLIN-TINE. He recognized us, and made arrangements for us to have two of the finest suites in the hotel. He called a couple of bellboys whom we immediately saw to be PHILLIP WATSON and IRVIN GATES. The elevator boy, RAYMOND SNOW, took us to the 45th floor. There we met CHARM IAN BLOOM, who had just returned from the beauty parlor at the east end of the hall, operated by LILLIAN HAHN and ISABEL SALY. She told us that she had to catch a plane for Boston, where she was to be co-starred with JOHN PEARSON in grand opera. She added, as a side note, that EVELYN MORRIS was the air hostess, and GEORGE WEBER the pilot on the plane in which she was to travel. We were served dinner by RALPH ElCKHOFF, who told us that the cooks at the hotel were MARY McMANUS and RUTH HERBSTER. We listened to the music of VANCE RAMSEY and his Rioteers. We also noticed that the lad at the drums was ROY EATON, while LILLI BETH SLABLE was busy tuning her big bass. MILDRED HECK was at the piano. The featured singers were VIRGINIA BELL and AUDREY CULVER. Dancing was furnished by the teams of GRACE ALLSMAN and ROBERT KIMMEL, and TOM JOHNSON and ELIZABETH YOESEL. The next morning we rented an electrically operated streamlined car from WALTER ZIMMERMAN and traveled down Main Street on a sight-seeing tour. Sud-denl we were hailed by a policeman, LEO ZICKLER, who informed us that we were driving too slow. He threatened to take us to the chief-of-police who, he told us, was DALE PRATHER. After a little argument he let us go on. We turned on the radio and listened to part of a three-hour speech by CLARENCE SIMON, who was running for President on the Democratic ticket, with JOHN WILSON as his Vice-President. His opponents were TOM DAVIES and JAMES CAIN. Leaving our car, we entered a large department store owned by FLORETTA PALMER and WILDA VICE. We found that we knew three of the clerks—HELEN POOL, IRENE BAHR. and ILENE BAUMAN. In the office we found VELMA OBERST as stenographer and ANNABELLE GERWICK as typist. As we came out of the store, we saw EDWARD LOVICK standing beside his telescope selling looks at the moon for a nickle per look. Near him stood LELAND PARRIS selling tickets for an excursion to the moon in his new Rocket. 19 3 7
