Class Prohecy As I, William Davis, sit here daydreaming, I see the future of the Kennedy Class of 57 • As the haze clears the vision be- comes clearer to me. Ten years have passed. I see Mac Ayers happily married and living in Millport. He is owner and manager of the Ayers Lumber Company. I see Ray Holsomeback living in Birmingham. Since he is both rich and good-looking he can't decide on any one girl. I see Lorine Wilson teaching dancing lessons at Kennedy High School. I see Donald Savage riding the girls in a Cadillac. Ha has just won the Indianopolis 500 for the third straight year. I see Max Bobbit doodling sawdust at a certain sawmill. There are a couple of little curly-haired boys running around in the way. I see Elton Cooper in jail. He has just been caught boot- legging blackberry wine. I see Louise Gilreath before a cheering crowd. She has just won the Academy Award for an outstanding performance in one of her many movies. I see Paul Johnson now married and owner of a farm near Palmetto. He still grumbles at his wife occasionally. I see Evelyn Hollinger working as a professional model in New York City.
