CLASS PROPHECY On New Year's Day «»| 1058 I was in London. Although it vun only seven o'clock in the morning. 1 was feeling gay, for I would leave for the United States in an hour. Upon arriving at the airport, whom should I see checking in with the official hut Beverly Coodwin! After completing my business with the immigration officials, I was free to talk to Beverly, who had obtained a seat next to mine on the observation deck. As we talked, it did not seem possible that ten year had slipped by since our graduation from Ramsay High. Soon our conversation drifted to the mcmlx-rs of the senior class of ‘48. Beverly, society editor of The Chicago Son, was able to tell me much about many of our former classmates. James, I suppose you have read about the recent party given by Jack Elmore, president of the 'Federal Five and Ten Cent Stores’, to the delegates at tlie Southern Convention? six-asked. “Many famous dancers and swimmers furnished entertainment for the guests. Jean Coston and Peggy Fox, Olympic swimmers, were outstanding in their exhibition, as were Eddie Burg and Jim Wall. Billy Hale and Betty Lou Lewis were a charming dancing team. Music was furnished by Richard Litt’s Orchestra, among whom were Jane Turner, Vonceil Foster, and Fain Hackney. Among the distinguished guests were Tommy Caldwell, president of All-State Steel Corporation; Lynn Otey, a Powers model; Thomas Onion, the Independent Party's candidate for President; Betty Boswell, well known vocalist; Hobby Lnfliu. comedian for N.B.C.; Ivey Jackson, stage producer; Pat Riley and Kitty Annes, famous actresses; Jean Prescott and Mary Jo Graham, noted authors; Harold Wall, president of Wall Motor Cunpauy; Jo Ann Lowrv and Joyce Rees, noted interior decorators; Marvin and Alvin Bcamian, famous surgeons; and Bahs Barnowski. noted pianist. Beverly was full of news. James, have you seen 'Hours Apart’? she asked. The lxmk was written by Aim Grigsby,” she informed me. “And the costumes were designed by Dot Logan and Shirley Newfield. Alberta Moore and Mary Alexander have leading roles. Jean Zude, Janice Rittcnbaum, and Ann Miller are in tin ballet. Mike Pinney and Peggy Collier were set designers. I thought the picture was an excellent one, I commented. Without another interuption Beverly continued: Paul Major recently celebrated at Stokes (Kxxlrich's night club the publication of his new book, 'Jokes for Jerks'. Those enjoying his hospitality were Betty Sey. secretary to Charles Culp, editor of Esr itire; Mildred Lee, Hollywood's newspaper columnist; Biddle Worthington, ambassador to England; Betty Clark and Norma Rittenbaum, fashion designers. At my suggestion we left the observation deck to go to the snuck bar. While having a cuke and a sandwich, we listened to the radio tuned to the Alabama-Ceorgia Tech football game. Among the prominent men introduced by Harold Pearson, the announcer, were Alabama's Governor Walter Puckett, Coach Billy Ox? of U. of A., Coach Gene Feigelson of Tech; Sol kimcrling and Gerald Dickerson, sport writers for the New York Times and the Washington Post respectively. Between halves Pearson, commenting on seeing tlx- other distinguished guests, said: On the 50-yard line I see Carrol Downs, outfielder for tlx- Brooklyn Dodgers, chatting with Bentic Tlxnnpson and Louis Mizeruny, co-owners of the Birmingham Borons. Nenrb are Charles Feigelson. couch of Tulane; and Jimmy Nation, assistant coach at Alabama.
