iii at ul, Amir Q :X I- PROPHECY tC0n't.J Among my collection l had a clipping from the New York Times. This clipp- ing told of the recent success of the Discord Concert Company. The warblers were, Bertram Leslie, Mervin Krock, Vernon Sehenoler and Edmund Wagner. Imogene Derr composed the music and Alice Kraus was responsible for the lyrics. Colleen Hutchinson sent me a ticket for one of her musicales. Colleen teaches music in our very own Alma Mater. Vance Mouser sent a badge of merit he had acquired for his outstanding achieve- ments as a National Guard. I consider the Popular Mechanics. one of my most cherished possessions. It contains a picture of a revenue cutter with a new automatic silencer. This cutter is the one operated by Howard Swartz and VVilliam Switzer. Waldo Merrick had perfected a modern, as well as practical, television machine. I turned the page and there in large type appeared the name of Homer Woessner who had discovered 'a new element in chemistry. Through the mail I received a snap-shot of Harvey Jurey and Dick Harmon, with the Davis cup which they had won for the U. S. in the year 1940. Gordon Scheidegger had become a national figure through his fame as a national golfer. That very day I was surprised to receive a book of poems written by Kathryn Gaver and Beulah Larick. My memories returned to my high school days when Beulah and Kathryn composed lyrics in English and Latin classes. Several weeks ago I spent a very enjoyable evening at a dramatic recital at the auditorium. The program included Hinipersonations of national figures by Lucille Scherry, and a speech The Theater and its Origin given by Evelyn Jenot. After listening' very attentively to Luci1le's impersonations, I heard a familiar giggle. I turned to see Ikena Miller in one of her characteristic fits of laughter. I also found among my souvenirs a menu from the candy and soda grill owned by Regina. Joseph and Angela Manniugen. Martha Ulrich and Alice Schmidt were two of the head-waitresses. Arthur Loverich and Pearl Dawson had.given me a copy of the latest composi- tion of the U. S. Marine Band in which they were prominent members. A letter from ,one of my classmates told of the activities of those who had failed to contribute to my collection. I learned that Roma Smith was an efficient Welfare worker in Detroit. Grace Brittingham and Helen McDaniel were outstand- ing nurses at Battle Creek Sanitarium. Imagine my astonishment upon finding that Grace Lawrence had married Prince Olenska. Wilbur was the best man. I was greatly relieved to know that he hadn't stubbed his toe or made any unnecessary noise with his heel plates as the pianist played Lohengrin. Allan Witzel was presi- dent of the National Bank at Washington. Ethel Brocklesby was employed as cash- ier. Friel Ulrich had taken over his father's position in the court house at Upper Sandusky. Russel Rogers was in the Barchus Jazz Orchestra. Vaye Carpenter and Kathryn Stephan had graduated from T. B. U.. and had very fine private secretarial positions. Stephan Cornish and Frederick Sheck were operating the bus line, orig- inally called Grey Hound . Herman Drown had just attained the position as president of the Universal Telephone Exchange. An anonymous person sent me a leather-bound copy of Ultra-Modern Satires written by J. Monroe Stevenson. What sorrowful and yet pleasant, reminiscenses this odd collection of articles gave me! My mind returned to by-gone days, and I longed once more to be among my dear old friends and teachers back there in good old U. S. H. S. -Lucille Greene '31 Page 28
