CLASS PROPHECY The gypsy’s enormous golden earrings gleam and sparkle wickedly in the poorly lighted room. She commands me to look into her crystal ball; meanwhile with her hands she turns it faster and faster. While she turns it she recites a strange, mysterious, magical verse. As I look into the revolving ball a cloudy substance within it seems to float up and down. My eyes seem to be getting heavy. Only with an effort can I keep my eyes open. Still the fortune-teller’s voice goes on and on, filling the room with a thousand mysterious noises. Finally the cloud within the ball begins to part and disappear......... Now a city comes into view. Looking closer I see a neon sign bearing this inscription Logan, Gateway to Ohio's Scenic Wonderland. Can this be Logan? The houses and stores are all so strange and unfamiliar. Huge skyscrapers rise where once stood our modest business houses. On a cornerstone of one of the buildings I see the words, James Warthman, architect. Now the streets whirl by one after another. Finally, the crystal ball focuses upon a news- stand at a busy street corner. The sole occupant of the newsstand is a rather small middle-aged man. He appears vaguely familiar. As he turns his head to look more closely at the newspaper in his hand, I recognize him as Charles Bungard. But what has happened to make him appear so old? Glancing at his newspaper I have an answer, the paper is dated August 26, 1972. I have actually been transported into the future. Charles appears to be reading an editorial by Bob Fox. The subject of his article is Should We Maintain Our Present Policy of Peace To- ward the War Between Saturn and Mars. Finishing the editorial, Charles turns to the ladies section of the Logan Times. Lois Hagan is the author of an article entitled Should a Woman From the Earth Marry a Man From Mars. Her opinion seems to be negative. Joy Lawson, Jean Morrison, and Marilyn Saxton are on the fashion staff of the Logan Times. Dorothy Wells assisted by Beverly Stroupe and Judy Woolery edits a gossip column. Following the ladies section is the sports section. There I see action photos of Jim Green, famous golf champion, and John Cannon, well- known professional basketball star. These photos were taken by Joe McQuaia and Junior Miller, star sports writers for the Logan Times. The newstand fades from sight and I see a close-up view of what was formerly Main Street in Logan. It now looks like Fifth Avenue in New York City. Huge skyscrapers pierce the sky. High up in these skyscrapers are the offices of some of Logan’s most successful and promising businessmen. Among them I see Bob Rittgers, Lawrence Green, John Heft, Jim Gastin, Everett Shaw, and Stanley Locke. These business tycoons have a long list of secretaries and typists in- cluding Donna Derr, Norma Fickel, Marjorie Kilbarger, Florence Litz, Vera Lindsey, Mary Lee Foster, Patty Frasure, Helen Chapman, and Donna Ringhiser. The scene changes; I see a large, efficient modern hospital—Logan Hospital—well-known throughout Southeastern Ohio. Its fame is largely due to the Head Physician, Ronna Vollmer, a very famous doctor.
