SENIOR PROPHECY THE Monterey High School Student Body assembled during the advisory period on June l7, l936, to celebrate Class Day. Juanita Flagg, Junior Class president, opened the meeting with the following words, Are there any announcements? After a pause she went on, lf not I will turn the meeting over fog-lpwgrd ygn, Deren, who ,has planned the program for today. Van Deren was dless-ed in Thelfraditionalfcostume of the seer, with a white turban wound around his head. After gazing into the crystal ball, he said, With your co- operation I will go into a trance, Then we shall see visions telling of the future of the members of the class of l936. May we have absolute quiet, please. The students sensed that something unusual was about to occur. They regarded the magician with tense expectancy. His arms were outstretched and his face raised heavenward. His face, drained of the last vestige of color, was expressionless and death-like. A mist had come creeping into the room, thunder crashed and an opening appeaier.! in the center of the room. We shall now see what lies in the future foi the class of l936, said the magician from his trance, and the students watched, fascinated, as miraculous visions began to unfold. They suddenly found themselves observing events and conditions of l966. In the troop ofa traveling road show they saw Jean Stewart selling pain eradicator- guaranteed a sure cure for athlete's foot, dandruff, fallen arches, and hangnails. Dr Harlan Wilder, B. A., PhD., etc., plus a long beard was president of the Wilder School of Tonsorial Arts. Ima Loyd, as his secretary, was practiced on by the students and got all her haircuts free. Warren Sides, John Stocker, and Harold Leveaue were about to receive their diplomas. Peter Girard was putting his mathematical mind to work counting sheep for insomnia sufferers. Jean Crossman, looking rather decrepit, was an Apple Annie on Ocean Avenue. Joe Hurl had become an expert knitter and was giving lessons for five cents an hour. Lois Phillips was running a day nursery, Bill Habgood was cracking hard-boiled eggs for potato salad in a delicatessen. Phillip MacDougal had made his fortune with a chemical he had discovered which removed the offensive odor from cabbages, iit also removed the tostel. Clarence Castro was seen in the act of winning the tid- rleldey winks championship of the universe. Jean Spence was bending the most artistic pretzels. There were more rumblings from time to time and occasionally Van Deren groaned, but the scenes appeared with amazing rapidity and clearness. Mary Ann Harrington was next shown in her official capacity as matron at Tehachapi. Patricia Hall was singing torch songs in a local hot-spot . Bill Hohnemann was getting along too,
