I I i I g rg i gt XX I E i if . , sl . xg XX ' X - Prophecy of the Class of january, 1939 Time: l959-fSetting: Enroute to Paris to see the World's Fair. With the motors roaring and the spectators in a perpetual state of expectancy, we hear in the distance the warning vibration of Phil Brown's customary police escort which announces the late arrival of that man-about-town joe Garvey who, with a large crew and several passengers, is about to take off on a trip to Paris to see the World's Fair and attempt to meet some of his former classmates. As Engineer Howard McGill opens the gates of the Western Mass. Airport, owned and operated by Lawrence Cleary, we see that dapper young gentle- man joe step out of the taxi to the drone of Phil Roux's voice, demand- ing, f'Fare, pleasen. Amidst the cheers of the crowd joe finds his way to the plane and is greeted by the attractive air hostess Pat Sullivan. After bidding farewell to his wife, the ex-actress Pricilla Drumm, he enters the Flying Hotel, piloted by Charles Prouty, with handsome Bob Heel as a co-pilot. Then is heard the sound of the door closing and the roar of the plane as it takes off, headed out toward the deep blue sea. On board this marvel of modern times, we find Marion York examin- ing her perfected 1959 fashion plates. As john Skowren peers over her shoulder, he finds to his amazement that they are made of spun glass, and that they are to be modeled by Ann Oliveri, jane Flint, and Anne Yule at the exposition. What next in fashions! Norman Tallent is seen in the rear of the ship mixing chemicals to make the fountain of youth a reality, but he is doubtful as to whether or not Holman Spence may have found the right combination first. Alma Okrongley is occupied reading Charlie Robinson's book on How to Make Friends and Keep Them . Bobbie Hollister enjoys practicing her famed golf swing, although not on a course, due to Austin Weber,s construction of a yo-yo golf ball which has the magnetic power of drawing the ball back to the tee. As the plane soars over the ocean, Al Denis, radio operator, contacts the Pyne 41 Yacht, to arrange a meeting at Russell Davis's refueling station in mid-ocean. After a few hours we reach this destination and transfer to the yacht. Boarding it we are greeted by the self-centered captain Earl Bemis, jr. who, when he smiles, displays Dr. joe Carmody's latest creation of lemon flavored false teeth. We then entered the Henry Room to enjoy cocktails. To our amazement we find the steward to be none other than our old pal Roy Miller. Retiring to our staterooms, which are kept faultlessly clean by jean Wetmore, we dress for dinner. This accomplished, we stroll around deck until we hear the dinner bell chime with Dave Soffran on the musical end of it. Entering the dining hall we are greeted by the rocking rhythm of Ken Munyon and his Rock Horse Orchestra. The food is furnished by Leslie Streeter, game warden who has confiscated the birds from Art Huse, an unfortunate hunter who went in for target practice out of season, and is prepaid by Richard Small and served by Frances Donnelen, Norma Midwood, and Theresa Restano. As we are enjoy- ing our dinner, Riley Aiken entertains with his corny trumpet, after which Grace Coughter appears crooning a sentimental song in Dorr Exford's ear, which is slightly dilapidated, due to various skirmishes in the boxing ring. Bobbie fBargainj Price does an extra-ordinary shawl dance with her shadow until she trips over the oversized feet of Billy Thomas, who, from the effects of his first cocktail, has been lying on the floor unnoticed. After this superb entertainment our hostess Shirley Pyne leads us to the upper deck where each guest indulges in his own conception of a good time. '
