CLASS PROPHECY Well, well! Here we are at the palatial Hotel Biltmore, owned and operated by Bob Cunningham, a former classmate. lt cer- tainly was nice of him to let us have our first ten years' reunion here. Ten years! My, has it really been that long since we gradu- ated? Yes, it's 1956 now! . . . Say, look at those beautiful flowers donated especially for tonight by charming Mildred Brown. lt's ru- mored she plans to open chain stores in big cities. Bet her life is just a bed of roses! , . . Lis- ten to that dreamy music. Say, that bandlead- er looks familiar. Well, bless my soul. it's Bob Kimbrell! Music always was his dish .... Oh, how did our eyes escape this? Look at that dazzling beauty taking her position in front of the orchestra . . . what voice! lt's our own Ernestine Hoffman, now a coast-to- coast favorite .... Let's drift over this way and see what's so awfully interesting that even our distinguished and dignified lawyers, Gordon Rolfe, John Kouns, and Charles Newsome, can't resist. Now we see!!! lt's those captivating charms of our Loretta Gilliam. now a leading fashion model whose luscious curves and graceful gestures have made her one of America's No. l pin-ups. The crowd is gathering fast. Here comes laughing Gail Collins, the sports editor of a leading magazine. Remember Gail's interest in athletics? Here comes a trim little number. Why, it's Janice Marshall, with that smile still unchanged. She's a dietician at the hos- pital, and it's rumored a certain young intern has more than a professional interest in her. No wonder!! . . . Next we see happily mar- ried Imogene Perkins. the dark-eyed looker with the sweet smile. Imogene has a hand- some husband and two children, who are her pride and joy .... Here is an interesting looking young woman, and what a handsome escort. lt's our Glenna Wilson, who has the most fashionable beauty salon in the city. Her hair-do is proof of that .... Next we see George Osburne, a gallant fireman who has established quite a record for himself .... Approaching us now is a smiling young lady, Tony Basenback, sparkling eyes, and all. As you know, Tony is chief assistant to Clyde McLaughlin, that famous scientist who has gained his fame through atomic research. With their dynamic ability to burn, they surely could set the world on fire in a big way .... We learned that cute Virginia Donehoo is now connected with the local bank. She not only handles money, but her pay envelopes are not on the flabby side .... Beulah Darby is private secretary to the presi- dent of the local telephone company. We always knew that cheery ring to her voice would get her places! . . . Here's a sweet young woman, the former Mary E. Carpen- ter. She is the happy bride of Donald Miller, the local president of the Junior Chamber of 24- Commerce .... The versatile young lady with the press identification is none other than Betty Rowland. She is a favorite cor- respondent of The Daily Chronicle, of which our own Jr. Cyrus is editor .... A dignified group of young women catch our eye, and we are almost certain they are school teachers. They are Anna Smith, Jenny Wallace, Bettye Williams, and Alma Massie. Such an array of beauty, plus grace and poise and personality, is rarely seen in members of the realm of learning .,.. My, what a stern businesslike appearance this man has. Let's get closer: perhaps we can recognize him. Why it's Homer Adkins. He owns and operates the city's nicest funeral home. Good business. Never a slack season .... Here is Maxine Gambill, who has attained fame as a swim- mer. She finished first in the National Wom- en's Contest and now holds the title of fastest swimmer in America .... The robust young gentleman with the strong hands is our own Danny LeRoy, who is chief mechanic at his own garage-nice chap. We hear he married that cute little Christyna Fosson, and they now have two little grease-monkeys of their own .... Delightful Patty Riley catches our eye next. Pat owns those exclusive apart- ments that everyone is clamoring for .... There's our Virginia Ferguson and Olive Young-sweet as ever. Being housewives certainly must be fun for them, as they still retain that schoolgirl charm .... Those unique paintings on the wall are the handi- work of Ruthe Millis, a famous artist .... Here comes that glamour boy, Glenn Mens- house, still the romeo type. That slick chick with him is Ethylene Stultz, a little beauty from school days .... Frances Kouns is sure enough walking on air. She is air hostess for Transcontinental Airlines, and it's rumored that Jim Sparks, a certain pilot, is doing tail- spins for her .... Hanna Gilley's restaurant has drawn many a hungry couple within its portals. Her generous helpings of such dainty delicacies has sent business booming in a big way .... We just bumped into a blonde, Betty Renfroe, the gal who knows more about us than we know ourselves. Yes, Betty is very actively engaged in the Bureau of Vital Statistics in Washington, D.C. She surely has all the low-down about the higher- ups. . . . Short, dark, and dimpled-that's our own Wanda Lee Noe. She's really a pic- ture in her nurse's uniform, with her con- trasting dark hair. No wonder her patients don't want to get well .... Have you ever visited that hat shop of Betty Jean Haney's? Her New York and Paris creations would put Hedda Hopper's collection to shame .... Could that smiling young woman coming this way be Phyllis Brown? Yes, and have you heard she's the town's only woman doc- tor? , . , Now we see attractive Lois Miller, The 1946 Revilonian
