SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Before I begin my tale of what you and I will resemble in the future, it will be necessary to inform you of an invention made in the year of 1960 A. D. by Herr Stein. You know Herr Stein, of Stein. Stein, Stein and Stein is happily married now. He and his wife live in Germany. The invention (pardon my unmechanical education) was something of the following. Karl (as you and I remember him) invented a machine which was able to carry the voice of an angel into the devil’s mansion, and vice-versa. He asked me over to break the champagne, or whatever one breaks, to christen the marvelous and world renowned device. I did so. Karl hadn’t told me that we, the living human beings would be able to hear the conversation. After much banging, cracking and crashing, we heard the sweet voice of Billy Huiatt, now the sweetest angel in heaven. He was calling Viola Goodhead. the devil’s right-hand man. At this discovery I began to rapidly change my childhood ambition. I didn’t want to go to heaven. The conversation, thanks to Herr Stein, will be given to you shortly: Billy: Operator, give me Hell 44-40 or fight. Viola: Hi. there, this is Viola in Hell speaking. Billy: Ah. hello my dear. I called upon you to be informed of the doings and scandal of our old class of ’34. Do you have any news? Viola: Yeah. I just been talking to that lazy old Edwina Thornton. She just got here. She was a U. S. Senator for a long time. She tells me that the rowdy June Meyers and Don Rich are married. They gotta exclusive mud house on South mesa. Billy: And do you know that Bob Butz has just entered the gates of heaven. He has set up a new business house. It is called the “Butz Business Is Best.” He is featuring the “Crinkly Permanent Wave.” That reminds me, I must get one while I have the time this week. You get a free finger wave and hair set. Dorothy Moore works for him. She is exceedingly gifted to the work and Bob likes her. But pray tell me, Viola, how come you to be in that uncouth place? Viola: It ain’t uncouth, and I like it. However, the way I got here is this. That fat old principal George Piercy kicked me out of P. H. S. and I died of broken heart. You know George is married to Mildred Porter. He runs a hamburger joint, and Mildred does the hashing. The two businesses keep him from starving to death. Billie: I just must tell you whom I saw passing the “Butz Business Is Best” shop. None other than the famous Monsieur Louis Orendorff. Louise looked like Sampson with his long flowing beard. He was having it curled. Louis is the owner of one of New York’s largest stores. Ella Roberts, the former F. H. S. football champ is chief sales manager. Viola: Say, that’s news. O, O. If you could only see what I see. I see Bill Mott Gable making love to the dancer, Antoinette Perrino. Bill has made so much love in plays in his high school days, that he just has the habit. Billie: Say. I’m very much in fear that trouble is brewing here in heaven. Rosa Smith, and also Clifford Butler, smuggled in crocheting needles when they came, and alas, my angels do nothing but crochet “F’s”. Everyone in heaven is wearing them. Coach Portenier holds wrestling matches to see who is entitled to wear them. I saw Cleopatra and Queen Elizabeth holding a bout this noon to see which was to w'ear one. Some struggle! Page 14
