19 3 4 MEMORIAL HIGH SCHOOL 19 3 4 Prophecy of the Class of 1 934 Lois A. Gammons Ethel A. Shaw I seem to see a dainty nurse Holding her patient ' s hand ; With Clara April on the job. Being sick is grand ! With a broad brimmed hat, and overalls blue, Pauline Dainis is looking at you. She carries a hoe, she ' s too busy to pet. For our Pauline is a Farmerette ! Charlotte DeMoranville in snowy white apron and cap Teaches a group of young ladies to cook. Now what do you think of that ! When you get discouraged about your hair And think you look a fright, Go to Lucy Athanasiou ' s Shoppe ; She makes you look just right. I see our Hassabie a waitress, As I lay my cards out thus. She c uickly gathers in her tips Only to find them asparagus ! Johnny Fowler, a news reporter wanted to be ; Has fulfilled his wishes as you will see. He has taken Walter Winchell ' s place on the air. With Mike Pawlak as Ben Bernie, They make a good pair. Madeline Robbins, a missionary, her work Way out in Africa her duty does not shirk. She has no trouble in making the yoiing mind, Because they all know she is loving and kind. Around the track the racing cars come, Boy! what driving! Hear the motors hum. Give them a cheer ! Who ' s in the lead I It ' s Norman Quindley ' ' King of Speed. ' ' I see Marion Walker in a dear little home. Where holly-hocks grow by the gate. There is always a welcome for those who roam, If they come early or late. Elmer 0. Drew Viljo E. Heleen A big butter and egg man came out of the West With a checkered suit, and a watch chain on his vest. He had a lot of money that he spent on the girls, Giving them parties, and suppers, and pearls. What is his name? I asked a fair lass. It ' s Samuel Ryder from Middleboro, Mass. Eddie Neill steps high, wide, and handsome; He struts to the trumpet blare. The golden medals gleam on his chest, His baton whirls in the air, He is the prize drum major At the great Chicago World ' s Fair. Elsie Adsit teaches kiddies In a kindergarten gay; The youngsters all aclore her And never miss a day. In a AVomen ' s College of high degree, Where only the learned may sit, Kathleen Graham I seem to see ; With the professors she is a great hit. You all remember Frank Raymond, Who always dressed just so? Well — now we see our Frankie, As a flashing gigolo. Mary Sylvia and Mary Souza Partners have become ; They are in the candy business And do they make it hum! Mildred Grossman a secretary wanted to be ; She is now in the office of Dot Dahlquist Comi any. They both claim they owe their success To the training they had in old M. H. S. Cora Place, a girl of great reliance, Was very much interested in Domestic Science. Cora was never the sort to roam. So she now x ractices her science in her own little home.
