P R O P H E C Y How time flies. Would you believe it has been 30 years since the class of '37 graduated from dear old Anderson Hi? After a careful check-up we finally located all of the members of our class, We find that Jay Stevenson is making a nice living as a thin man in the Ferguson one-tent circus. Vern Cunningham has put his scientific knowledge to work and has crossed a kangaroo with a skunk and the result was a large skunk with a pocket. The fur pockets are in great demand for muffs. Katherine Gilmore is teaching English in a high school in Redding. They say she still has her giggle. Agnes Selland is a sensation as a movie actress. One of her pictures is coming to the big theatre in Anderson tonight. The Aldree Radio-Television is a wow. It is named for the perfectors, Alward and Andree, two local boys who have made good. Barbara Frambes has one of the best beauty shops in S. F. She can make a woman ten years younger in fifteen minutes. Betty Smith is a wow as a rode-o cowgirl. She took first place at Red Bluff last year. Barbara McQueen married into a rich family and has two children in school. Barbara Lee and Fred. Richard Manning has upset all laws of Physics by the Manning Law of Physics, stating that perpetual motion is now in use and that the Law of Multiple Propor- tions was all wet. Bob J-ohnston is playing first base for the St. Louis Cards, while Jim Wait is the heavy 'hitter for the Yankees. Floyd Serpa now owns the Wood Yard in New York and seems to be making money. Paula Corby has been married four times now. Says she is beginning tc like it. Le Roy Droege is the Atlas Man in a circus. Says it's easy for a man like him. Leona Robinson married Ed Ballou, principal of the Anderson High School. This is her fifth husband. Helen Sexton was seen walking down the street the other day with ten kids. Pretty good, eh? Norman N-orris is one of the biggest bee men in the country. They say he has just about put the bee on everybody. Page Twelve

Page Fourteen SENIOR SNEAK Hear ye all, seniors, gather round, The time has come the call to sound. At two in the morn after a hard night We stop where the teachers hibernate, And yell for Miss Eide who's sure to be late. Now here comes Jay full of vigor and pride, Who by the morrow will have a fair bride. The seniors all gathered begin' to- believe We'll arrive where we're going-only to leave! We head for high hills so far away, Where .most of the boys will ble led astray. Close harmony falls on everyone's ear As we behold dawn drawing so near. We're out of the valley that's scorching hot heat, All soon will be active in some sort of feat. Away over there are Butch and Szmokey Wiho do-n t have much fun because they're so pokey. The Balls Ferry belle, our brown-eyed Kate, Hobnobs with Agnes, a maid quite sedate, While Paula sits lonely under a tree Pining 'cause Bill's not on this spree, And little Joe, our dapper dresser, Let's his thoughts go lesser anfd lesser and Lesserg There's Vern and Leona and droopy Dave, About the fun they'll always rave, LeRoy Droege, that great master mind, Walks through the hills a fair lady to find, Richard Manning, along with Droege in brains, Is gallantly flirting with all single damesg Ed Ballou, with his bush-itty slurr, Esca.pes the cold waters with a loud br'r'r g Jim Wait, the pride of Coach Ackerman's teams, Has Salty chasing flies in his dreams, Johnston, the guy who this poem has written, Is sittin' and thinkin', but mostly just sittin', Cause poor ole Bob's left out of the fun, For Freshie companions he now has none, Betty and Barbara, who got hand in hand, Search the high hills for ye ol' cow han' 3 Fred Andree, brother Oswald to his mates, At whose own' post Barbara M. always waits, With her plays tiddle-winks in the sand, And say, boys and girls, ain't love grand? After .ice cream comes a Weiner and bun, Then down we lie to loll in the sun. Some play baseball, and others crack jokes, Some play poker, come on all you folks, As the day wears on, some are getting quite low, So we leave our camp to attend the show C25 Rolling down the hills, Balls of Fire! Crash! Bang! Boom! There goes a tire! Mr. Parks, the bus driver, 1et's out a yelp And shouts, Oh boys, how's for some help. Finally we resume our journey toward home When someone cries out, No more shall we roam. We look back at the day and think, How tin1e's flown! Indeed, 'tis the best Senior Sneak we have known. -Bob Johnston '37
