Willa SENIOR CLASS PHOPHECY A carnival arrives in town. I am excited. I visit it the Hrst night. I espie the fortune teller's tent. I step ing am invited to sit down. I address the Gipsy wom-an, "Madam, I am about to be graduated from high school. Wionld you tell me what each member of my class will be doing fifteen years from now P" She gazes into the crystal ball for a minute. Forms begin to appear, and the lady begins: "XYhat's this I see here? It is what was formerly occupied by Freel's Drug Store, but now it is .the Corbett Drug Co. It is managed by Keith Corbett. Keith has employed G. L. Carter, who is still looking important. IVhat do you suppose Donald Bales is doing? He is owner of a hospital, and Francis George and Remine Knisely are his assistants. The nurses in this hospital are Berniece Knight, Margaret Rhines, Mae Vinyard, Ileen Carmichael, and Evelyn N'oe. Donald, Francis, and Remine should have good business with these girls as nurses. Vaughtie Piercy has taken Mr. Blackwelder's place in high school, teaching music. Billy Peoples is now owner of the largest funeral home in town. VVayne Ailey is owner of -a radio station in Morristown. His announcers are Charles Ryan, Conrad Campbell, and Elmer Blackwell. Imogene Jackson con- ducts a "Kiddie" program on Saturdays over this station. She always did love children. She is still single, but still looking for a husband, and hoping to find one soon. One of the favorite programs on this station is the one in which Dick Lane and David Litz are starring. They are the two most popular boys in Morristown and are real artists. Sam Cantrell is sitting in the chair once ocupied by Hal Noe. He is owner and operator of the Morristown Ga- zette R Mail. He is destined to be a millionaire. Employed on the XVPA are Lyman Smith, Leslie Susong, john Xhiilliams, joe Allison, Bob Harmon, and Homer llray. This is the kind of work they like, because they always did like loafing. The crystal shows someone leaning over a wash tub rubbing clothes. Wfearily she lifts her head, and brushes back a few strands of h-air which have fallen into her eyes. IN-'ho do you think this is? She was formerly Gladys Morrison. just a sample of what married life will do for you. In Morristown Dorothy Iiloneycutt. Ruby Iarnagin, and Helen Canter are operating a beauty shop.
