CITIE 1929 BEACOII '21 Class Prophecu Atlantic City, N. J. May 28, 1949. Dear Members of the Class of 1929- This evening as I was sitting in my room the thought came to me that just twenty years ago we were handed our diplomas in West Reading High School. I was wonder- ing where the rest of the class were and what they were doing, so I decided to go to a Fortune Teller and see what she could tell nie. I am writing what she told me. I hope that each member will pass this along after reading it. Freddie taught school only three years and then went to California to get married.
