CLASS PROHECy February 31, 2000. Back in the good old days of ' 36, it was always a sure bet that John hlarvey would raise his hand before the teacher had finished stating the question. Further development of his talents finds him now a mind reader, crystal gazer, and what have you. As he peered into his glass door knob, the following facts were brought to light. Rosamond Shock and Elwood Ingledue are laboring to help mankind. Rosamond is de- facing billboards, and Elwood writes anony- mous notes to people, both trying to turn the steps of pleasure-seekers from Bowery Lane Theater. Alas! People will be persistent. They swarm into the theater. Lights are lowered; the mu- sic begins. What an orchestra! In one cor- ner is Jeanette Bowsher ' s class of Oboe Os- walds hailing from Hicksville-on-fHogcreek. Julia Mae Siferd is wearing her fingers to the bone, trying to compete with Paderewski. Carolyn Parmenter is frantically searching for a drum. In a moment of estrangement, she used Mary Ebling ' s head. Poor Mary now plays the harp in Saint Peter ' s symphony. Howard Reed is playing second fiddle to Ru- ' oinoff. Ah! The news reel. Russel Musser, water- boy for Notre Dame, becomes the hero of the team. Dorothy Williams pinch-hits for Dizzy Dean and saves the game. Page Goodenough, turned scientist, works to create musical heel- plates. Frances Archer is hard at word reviv- ing the old custom of shooting the bow and arrow. Beatrice Coehick gets in an extra loop as she swings from her trapeze. The picture! Helen Plummer, bringing to a realization the old adage that plump people are pleasing, is a famous comedienne. Francis Mauk is a noted imitator. Doris McClain is the leading lady. Bernard Harshe doubles for Clark Gable. Glen Spyker exhibits his flea-circus. He obtained the fleas from the mongrels in the dog pound. A crash interrupts the performance. No one killed. It was only EInore Burtchin. She creates more business by dropping crowbars on the glass houses which she designed. And now comes Madame Schooler. At the very first note many people make a dash for the nearest hospital. Aw knots! It was Doro- thy Dickson ' s institution for the correction of weak ankles in basketball players. The would- be prima-donna has been reported to Charles Pelligrini, Justice of the Peace. Several people have flourishing business es- tablishments. Alfaretta Burden has a beauty salon. She employs Mildred Claar as a barber and Wanda Anderson as an experimenter on facial creams. Eugene Swallow is owner of a thumb-tack manufacturing company. Esther Lang has a private flying school for girls, with Carl Moser as head mechanic. Wow! What a School! Carey Mauk manages a hospital for the pu- pils who have cracked up. Harold Kerr drives an ambulance between the airport and the hospital. Tom Gallaway, the man of the lemon locks, is growing grapefruit in Orange City. Donald Baxter ' s complex for handling dimes led him to open a chain letter store. Gale Coon, car- penter, is kept busy repairing the rink, for Willamae is still trying to learn to skate. Dale Hover is a life saver. His best custo- mer is Verdie Harshman, who simply can ' t learn to swim. Donald Kunkleman was owner of a dairy farm, but converting all his cattle into ham- burgers has brought bankruptcy upon him. Kenneth Keller will be the auctioneer, speak- ing at the rate of 950 words per minute. After years of trying to raise the largest porker, Karl Stockton has finally turned to poultry. He is now the proud owner of a hen which lays eggs as large as baseballs. Donald Hulllnger is building a fence around the farm to keep the eggs from rolling out. Dale Cremean and Valore Stepleton have turned authors. Dale is writing a history to compete with Muzzey, and Valore is writing a French Book which will give more opportunity for arguments. Norman Dardio is still trying to convince street cars that they should move over. Corrine Lones is applying her mathematical brain to census taking. Leia Stewart couldn ' t be an old lady when she graduated, so she took second choice, and is now matron of a home for the aged, with Clinton Gracely as assistant manager and ianitor. 20
