In Memoriam One of the boys who had gone through school with us from the early grades through high school, died this year. lrvin Deutsclfs death was ll shock to everyone. Known throughout the school for his line work on the football team and on the Li- brary Squad, he was a familiar figure to the student body. Extra-curricular activities and regular work he combined with no detriment to either. His own classmates felt the loss of this quiet boy even more than they realized at the time. Kindly. ready to help, and one of the most depend- able of the Seniors. his absence made a notable gap in the class. It did not need the letter that was to have been awarded him at the end of this year, nor an itemized account of his work in the Cynosure, to make the class realize his worth. lrvin Deutsch will always be remembered by his friends-those who knew and loved him at school, and those who were his friends outside. 16

Class Prophecy of 1930 Slowly and lazily I walked along the streets of New York City. The noise of the metropolis beat unceasingly upon my ears. The day was sultry, but a cool breeze blew fitfully on my fevered brow. With lagging steps I walked into the lobby of the Commodore Hotel and threw myself into a chair in a secluded corner. In a few min- utes the noise grew fainter. The walls of the foyer began to sway. I seemed to be carried away by unseen hands. Suddenly I felt a slight shock, and on opening my eyes I found myself on the peak of a high mountain. Beneath me the clouds rolled cease- lessly. The air was sweet and peaceful, and the grassy knoll on which I was standing was very green and beautiful. As I gazed on this wondrous sight, the clouds rolled back, and lo, in the steadily growing light, I saw the world stretched out beneath me like some gigantic map. A queer shaped cloud floated almost above my head. Look, oh, youth! The voice appeared to come from the cloud. Look, and I will reveal to you the future of your friends, the Seniors of the class of 19303, The voice stopped and its owner appeared. White-haired and small he was, with a manner kind and dignified. I gazed in the direction of his outstretched hand. ik ik' il' The stillness of the air is broken by the hum of motors. The clouds roll higher and higher until at last two planes appear. They become more distinct, and now I see that they are piloted by Dave Lock and Frank Miklos, two of Uncle Sarn's most prominent aviators. The roar of the motors fades, and in its place comes the roar of thunderous applause. Adeline Verner is taking her fifth curtain call in the Metropolitan Opera House. She has sung herself into fame and fortune. Ada Hirschman, mean- while, has published a new book entitled, The Nu-Way Speed in Stenographyf' The clouds lift still more and my picture is Hooded with the rays of a sparkling sun. One ray settles over a large gray building along the banks of the Hudson Riverg it is the new Cancer Hospital. Surely I recognize those figures in their trim white uni- forms? Yes, they are Madeline Page, head nurse, and Frank Vanderwall, the famous American specialist to whom humanity owes so much. I see Anna Jackman as a cooking teacher in a prominent Kentucky finishing school for girls. Margaret Keim is sitting behind -a desk in a luxurious ofiice. She is private secretary to one of Wall Street's new millionaires. In a little garret studio Josephine Marotta is sketching: Who can her model be? The picture looks familiar. Well, if it isn't Sarah Ginsburg, who has just been chosen as the Typical American Girl. Josephine is in Paris struggling for recognition as an artist. She will succeed although her path is rocky. Gertrude Goldstein is being sent to Washington to take notes on the Naval Con- ference that is being held there. Catherine Savcheck has discovered a new vitamin to make even the thinnest people fat. Mike Sellner is busy beautifying the gardens of Alice Higgins, popular society girl of Washington. Mike is a well-known land- scape architect and has just finished rebuilding the White House grounds. I see a I7
