Closs Prophecy 49 Park Avenue New York, N. Y. November 28, 1958. Dear Danie, I want to congratulate you on your new organization, "The Fuschia X." Taking Christmas boxes to the penguins at the North Pole is certainly a generous act. A I suppose you are curious 'about what has been going on with our old classmates of G. P. S. while you have been in that ice-olated country for all these years. Anne Cahoon is happily married to a Mr. Bacon and they are rearing fine little strips. Baroness Thomison has just patented her latest perfume-"Jeanelle No. WA." Poor ole Beanie-she's gone to the Beville. Clefty Collins has finally escaped to Cuba with, her contraband of arms crossed by innocent River and Ridge Rats. After much research Sally White published her revealing novel, Love Life in Lithuania or Jo Told Me Wrong. By the way, Jo White, who has recently entered the political game, was unamiously elected Commissioner of Parks. The dog biscuit 'industry is flourishing with the aid of Harriet: "If your dog wails, if your pup moans Just go to the store and buy Roane's bones." The great soprano, Senorita Allen, reached C above the C that is above high D by accidentally drop- ping her grand piano on her toe. Jessica McCurd5g-'was interning as a tree surgeon, but she decided to become a tree psychiatrist instead. She felt it was her duty to the medical profession to discover why the willow was weeping. Nancy and Pellen are now full-fledged physicians at their own clinic in Cleveland. Their motto is: "If you feel like heck, G0 to Marler and Speck." -Q' That master detective, Nancy Hawkshaw Liberman, is busy tracking down that "Terror of the Badlands," who is none other than our old classmate, Patsy-alias Spider Webb. Grace Robinson is very successful at law. She managed to wheedle the judge into pardoning Ann Woodworth, arrested for the fourth time in a brawl with Tricia Trotter at Prescott's Pool Parlorg they are still arguing about which is more important-the line or the backiield. In spite of her acclaimed success as the "Sappho of the Painting World," Janice has managed to settle down in her home. She has two little boys with hair which she has already started peroxi- dizing. Over in Switzerland Ann Libba is conducting a mountain climbing expedition. She hasnft had an accident yet-experience is the best teacher! Have you heard about Mary Ellen's exciting and unusual circus? Cynthea used to be the star attraction in it, she was the dare-devil who would ride a horse over the tightrope without any net. It is too bad her horse happened to lose a shoe during her act one day. Presiding over the funeral rites was Sylvia, who made poor Cynth-ea turn over in her grave by dropping the Bible in the middle of the ceremony. Guess what? C. J. has triplets! Of course you remember she married the president of the Pepsi-Cola Company, whom she met while competing in the contest. They call the children Pepsi, Cola, and Excuse Me. Rita is working on her sequel to the Razor's Edge called Quick! The Bandaid! Winger and her husband have founded the Birmingham Asylugn, commonly referred to as "Poor Richard's All Maniac." It's sad that Dee Feinstein has to be an inmate. It seems that after she finally learned to work the combination on her own locker at G. P. S., safe cracking became an obsession. Gaenor's there, too. She just sits on the floor and stares at her yarn and needles. Then she mutters, "If Wishing will make it so, wishing will make it knit, too." Donna is also a permanent resident. Poor thing thinks she's Al Jolson-all she does is smear black shoe polish on her face and sings, "Sewanee, how I love you, how I love you." You remember Frances Street, our Honor Council president. Well, she uses her motto of "Follow the Straight and Narrow." She is the president of a foundation garment factory in New Jersey. Well, I must hurry now. Reacle'r's Digest has asked me to write a condensation of The Grapes of Wrath. So I'm off to compose "The Raisins of Anger." Your old friend, JOSIE L fwh , N , 123 r X332 X' 9 n t " U QQ! I.
