CLASS PROPHECY OF 1951 In the year of our Lord nineteen hundred sixty- one, the S. S. Spartan pulled out of San Francisco Bay to begin its cruise around the world. I was amazed to find that the Captain of this beautiful luxury liner was Wintred Sickle, and serving as members of his crew were Frank Belty. Lowell McDonald, Robert Fleming. and Leo Gilbert. To my astonishment the steward who showed me to my cabin was Bob Martin. After brushing up a bit I decided to take a leisurely stroll about the decks, and there I spied the distinguished novelist, Kent Maxwell with his private secretary Millie Flannery. I stopped to chat a bit with them and glanced up just in time to see Galen Smith striding by reciting some of his well known po- etry. I walked farther down the deck and in a secluded corner I saw the famous Hollywood dramatic instructor, Marian Schott, coaching her two favorite pupils, Barbara Pettit and Barry Thomas. I climbed the steps to the top deck and walked over to the swimming pool. There perched upon the diving board I saw the former Ioyce Messick. the current Mrs, America. Looking around I saw Barbara Phipps and Faye Pouncey sun- bathing. About this time my stomach told me it was time to eat so I went down to my cabin to dress for dinner. I went into the dining room on the arm of Earl Smithem who, incidentally, is on his eighth trip around the world with the Globetrotters. Seat- ed at a little table in the center of the dining room was Iohn Fresh who is now a jeweler and with him was none other th.an Betty Anderson I under- stand she models his jewelry in a shop in London. As the orchestra began to play several couples left their tables to dance. Among them I recog- nized the former Carol Douglas, Delores Bee, Lenora Cieutat, and Betty Griffin with their hus- bands, and Mr. and Mrs. lack Davisson. I then noticed the featured trumpet player was an old classmate, George Kungle. My attention having been attracted to the bandstand I saw that the maestro was our own Ieanne Donovan. I see by the program that Carolyn Maloney is the fea- tured dancer. After having such a wonderful dinner I was dying to know who the chefs were. I wandered about until I found the kitchen and there lo and behold were Buster Pounders and Dick Abbot all decked out in chef hats and aprons. I went right away to get some bicarbonate of soda. I saw by the schedule that we were due to dock at Honolulu the next day so I thought it best to turn in for the night. After a good night's sleep I was the first one ashore when the boat docked at 8:00 A.M. I registered and had break- fast in a beautiful hotel owned and operated by Mary Lou Dilworth. Then I started on a tour of the city. My guide, who I thought was a native, turned out to be Arland Peck. Seated under a palm tree strumming a ukelele was Don Clayton. To his plunking of Hawaian Sunset six pretty Hula Hula girls Ellen Walker. Gay Cottle, Char- lene Sanders, Mary Knotts. Marian Fluharty and Ruth Dudugjian were Hula Hula-ing. I went next on an inspection tour of the high school where I met two of my former classmates, Mary Ann Barta and Shirley Knotts. physical education teachers. The principal of the school, Nella Schmidt, escorted me to the door and di- rected me back to the ship which was sailing shortly. As I gathered with the other passengers at the rail to wave farewell to my friends Mary lane Cunningham, Carol Keith and Geneva Holland, who plan to work in the Navy Ship's Store until they got homesick, I saw a group of familiar looking people. What were they doing? You'd never guess. They were Iim Clay, lim Boone. Ronnie Crew, and Bob Boyles diving for coins thrown overboard by the wealthier passengers. Needless to say I hurried to the dining room to spend my coins. My tea was served by a charming young lady, Donna Smith, who was working her way around the world. When my ship docked in Shanghai, I went ashore seeking some real chop suey. On a little back street there was Chop Chop's Chop House. Of course, you know who the proprietor was, our old stand-by Charles Browder. Among his daily customers were Iohn Ayers, JoAnn Malenack. and Ioe Noftsinger. A few hours out of Shanghai there was great excitement aboard ship. One of our stewards, Steve Park, examining the life boats had dis- covered a stowaway hidden under a life pre- server. Who else could it have been but Chic Crosier. Captain Sickle being an old friend of Chic's told him that he could remain aboard until the ship docked at Calcutta.
