If that were 30, 23 of those stars held the futures of the Class of 1952 in their mysterious interiors. As I was pondering over this very tremendous thought, one of these stars seemed to burst, and a few million bubbles fell around me. There was a light so blinding that I had to close my eyes. When I opened them, I was stan- ding in the strange land of Twenty Years From Now. Everything was very much changed. Atomic power was being used in the homes, everyone had a family space plane, and no one bothered about meals—they had pills which held all the things necessary for good health. But, 30 much for that. What I was interested in was what my classmates were doing now. So, I began to look around and turned up with some very amazing and surprising facts. I thought it only fitting that I look up our former class president first, and I found him without much difficulty, for I was certain I knew where hewould be. Yes, Steve was in Hollywood, and in my chat with him, I discovered that he could be currently seen in Metro-Silver-Meyer's latest production, To Each, Someone Else's. As I was quite homesick for Atlanta, I decided to go there next and see if anyone was around. It was quite different now, and had increased in size, and I saw many new business establishments. Among them, were Van Cleave's Drugstore, Fortman's Dairy, Inc., Ford's Baker, and Kindred's Kafe Noticing that I was almost out of gas, I stopped at the next station and read a sign that said, Pech's Perky Service Station. Bob filled the gastahk, and gave the windows a very good once over. He said business was quite goodand gave the latest issue of the Atlanta Argus to read. I noticed that Ronnie West was now the publisher. Several items I read concerned members of my old class. Miss Joyce Ijams entertained her bridge club last Wednesday afternoon. I noticed that Dorothy Dyer was present, and I later was told that she was planning to establish a Cat and Dog Hospital in Atlanta. Betty Dano, who is now a registered nurse, is going to be her partner in this enterprise. Marilyn Hulva has a thriving tomato farm and has developed a method or raising them year round. Thus, the residents of Atlanta have fresh tomatoes year round and Marilyn, by the way, has a full pocketbook year round. Another item I read told of Aaron Cook's success. It seems he has invented several things, the most important being a fuel-saving engine for the spaceplane. I also noticed that Mrs. Earl Long was celebrating her 20th wedding anniversary (Dorothy Rawlins, of course), and decided to drop by the next day and visit with her awhile. While we gossipped, she told me that Jane Cotton had gone to California to get married as she had planned, and when her husband was out of the army, they stayed there and were running a very high classed beach resort now. I was dis-sappolnted that I found out so late, because I could have dropped in to see her when I was on the coast to see Steve. She informed me that Mary Short now was president of the Solar Space Lines. She made her start by becoming a steward-dess and slowly worked her way up. Admiral Theodore Merry was bacx to Atlanta this summer. Ted has just retired from the Navy, and is planning to live in Florida and take it easy. You will find Norman , she said, in Chicago In his Beauty Salon. Norman always was a lady's man and is now quite successful. His specialty is the Spitz Snip which he dreamed up shortly after the Poodle Cut came out. Dorothy Fuller has a dress designing establishment in New York and is now planning next spring's collection. We had a nice talk, but it wasn't too quiet at Dorothy's for there were ten small children running all over the place. The next day, I dropoed In at the high school to see how things had changed. As I suspected, there weren't many of our former teachers thare but I did find Wilma Milter teaching commercial subjects, Sarah Bell the physical education classes, and John Ryan was principal. This was no surprise as I knew how much he hated to leave. A new establishment is now in town. It is the Hughes and Ewing Dancing and Baton Twirling. School. Jack and Nate give most of .the. lessons themsdves Then something kept saying Go BackY I knew nor where, but I started on my way and found myself back to 1952. Now I could tell my classmates about my strange adventure into the Land of Twenty Years from Now. Perhaps you have been wondering who am. Well, I am we, the prophecy committee of the Class of 1952. HISTORY The senior class of '52 started in the first grade with twenty three people and although it lost and regained many times during the twelve years, it is ending with twenty three people. Tba?e are ten of the original group who are finishing together. They are: Dorothy Dyer, Nate Ewing, Jack Hughes, Joyce IJams, Lyle Kindred, Bob Pech, John Ryan, Steve Swearingen, Ronny West(who was gone between the second and fourth grades), and Dorothy Puller (who was gone between the second and sixth grades.) The other members of the first grade of 194° were: Jack Groves, Sonny MUb Lou Ema Durbin, Phyllis Kindred, Jimmy Klinkradt, Ann Thomas, Darleane Brown, Billy Phillips, Jewl Moore, Dick Botkins, Berta Robbins, Jean Baker, and Ernest Usherwood. Ted Merry and Jane Cotton came during the second year; Mary Short joined our class in the third grade; Wilma Miller in the fourth; Junior Cook, Jim Ford, Betty Dano, Marilyn Hulva, and 'Wayne Portman in the seventh grade; ana Dorothy Rawlins came in in the eighth grade. Only three people were gained in the four years of high school. Norman Usherwood came into our midst the freshman year, Duane Van Cleave blessed our group with his presence the second year, and Sariah Bell enrolled here the Junior year. This completed our group. The freshman year was an exciting one as it is for all green freshies. After our fears were quieted, initiation was a great deal of fun. The class officers for this year were: Dorothy Rawlins, president; Junior Cook, vice presi- dent; Mary Short, secretary and treasurer; Junior Cook and Ted Merry, student council representatives. The class sponsors—Mrs. Bode (formerly Miss Graham), and Mr. ’.' right, accompanied us on a fall hayrack ride to Moore's Mill. We received the first prize for our Hallowe'en float. The attendants for the Junior-Senior prom were Mary Short and Nate Ewing. Our class ended its freshman year with a trip to Weldon Springs. Our second year, we enjoyed a weiner roast at the home of Marilyn Hulva's and later in the evening, the villages of Waynesville and McLean and all the surrounding territory were visited on a hayrack ride. With Mr. Peeler as class sponsor, Wilma Miller was elected president; Ronnie West, vice president; Mary Short, secretary and treasurer; and Jim Ford and Junior Cook as the student council representatives. The float theme for the Homecoming Parade was The Jot'em Down Store. Dorothy Dyer and Steve Swearingen served as attendants to the royaL couple this year at the Prom. Once again, the class travelled to Weldon Springs for their picnic. The junior year was an exciting, fun packed, and busy year. Ted Merry was installed as president; Junior Cook as vice president; Betty Dano, secretary and treasurer; and Joyce IJams and Wilma Miller, student council representatives. Mrs. Glen Nichols was the class advisor. Mary Short served as a homecoming queaa attendant to Queen, Dorothy Bayles, of the senior class. The class float this time depicted the idea that it Twas the Night Before Christmas. It was decided that the Junior play, the Inner Willie , would be put on in the fall so the class would have more time for Prom ideas. In the latter part of November the class rings were orderea and the Junior Class sponsored an all-school party. The rings came over Christmas vacation. The Junior-Senior banquet was held at the Christian Church. The theme this year was South Pacific, and was carried throughout the banquet and prom. A1 Olson's band furnished the very danceable music. Seniors, Jo Ash and Bob Ellis were crowned by the 1950 king, Allyn IJams, as King and Queen of the 1951 Prom. The Junior class attendants were Dorothy Puller and Junior Cook. The picnic ending this school year was held at Decatur. And then—the day dawned that we had all been working toward. The first day of our Senior year. The things the class dia this year were to be varied and many. The year began with a very successful party for the freshman. Mr. McCullough was the class advisor who helped us through our last year. The officers for the year were: president, Steve Swearingen; vice president, Duane Van Cleave; secretary and treasurer, Wilma Miller; student council representatives, Joyce IJams, Steve Swearingen, and Junior Cook. Wilma Miller was crowned Homecoming Queen, and the sad tale of our float was represented by the sign it bore, Shucks, We Thought The Parade Was Tomorrow. Once again, we presented our play in the fall. It was called The Atomic Blonde. On May 10, the seniors were guests of the Juniors at the annual Junior-Senior Prom and Banquet. Graduation was held on May 23 with the Alumni Banquet following on May 21;. So, the class history ends. Now the group becomes split and the individuals go their own way but the class activities enjoyed while at Atlanta's Public Schools will always remain a part of our lives and will effect our future actions more them we realize at the present time. J.C SENIOR POEM S.S. N.E Prom the halls of Atlanta High, We leave with but a last low sigh With happy memories from the past We, from this high school, leave--at last. First, we 11 say a few words true Of the classmates you all knew. I guess we'd better start with Ted, Who is very smart as said. And we should truly know. Because he's always set his goal. Then there is a girl by the name of Puller, Dorothy, it is saia, could be no truer. Because she does her studies well And never copies, that we can tell. And here is Dodo with a smile. And a laugh not quiet in style. She's going to be a college Miss. She's just the type—with grace and priss. There's always a bookworm in every class. And ours happens to be Ronnie West. He was quite a hit with the women teachers. But the girls called him the handsome pest. And here is Bob, who is very wise. He drives a blue Chevy and hauls all the guys. When it comes to laws, he's in the know— But why all the mixup over a crow] With this next chap you'll never get bored. He's a cheery young man known as Jim Ford. He t kesfirst place for strawberry picking and when it comes to jokes, he's in there kicking. Here is Dorothy Rawlins--Another lass from our room. Chances are, she'll be married soon And Earl Long will be the groom. Now this next girl is a Doctor's daughter She's always right, doing what she aughter. She'll hustle off to college next year With a glorious future full of bright cheer. And if you see a yellow jeep With a horn that goes, beep eep',' You'll know it is our young Nate And to school he's never late. There's Kenny Usherwood, by name. Who as a farmer, will make fame. Some invention he'll make, surely. So that he can make dates early. And Betty Dano with black hair. Who with the boys is very fair. All her studies she gets done And from the boys she never runs. And the most wreckless of the classes Chases all the pretty young lasses. He goes by the nickname of two gun. That's Jack Hughes to everyone. And there is 'Wilma with blue eyes. Who gets attention from the guys. In her work, she's always busy In fact, she works until she's dizzy. And Pooch Kindred with wavy hair. He's a boy both fair and square. He's got a smile and is very tall, and he reads comic books in the study hall. And if you see an old green truck, for all the girls-- Oh, what luck I It is Tebe who has lots of wit, and if you want a laugh he's got it. Here's a girl who's name is Mary, She's always smiling, and never contrary She's a studious member of our class. She'll go places—this cute lassi Wayne Fortman is the next young man. He's quiet as can be. Hard work is his favorite hobby. His nickname is Pee-Wee . A streak goes by our school house A horn blows by the way It's Cookie in his chevy At noon hour—out to play. Next, is Welleth Duane Van Cleave Who is always jolly with never a grieve His hobby was always courting the girls Because he wa3 dashing with his golden curls. There is an Irishman in our class. Ryan is the name. A truck driver's life he does seek To transport his way to fame. There is a girl with bright red hair. She's tall and slender and very fair. She's a farmer's daughter from out of the hills It's Marilyn Hulva who fills the bill. Last, but not least, is Sarah Bell, She's the type who rings the bell. We don't know about her future life But with her disposition, there'll be no strife• No feats they say tnis class will shurf Because No Sooner Said Than Done.

Prince Fortunates of KLysia, on a goodwill tourcf America, placed Newport in his itinerary| but later changed his mind much to the relief of Mile Clau-dine. She then instigated the plan of having Gilbert take the Prince s place in order to be near Dolly and win her hand in marriage Tb help in this plan. Mile Clandine agreed to take Oussie off Dolly's hands To complicate matters. Prince arrived without any He and the princess met, each other's identity and it of love at first sight the real publicity, unaware of was a case Eventually, Gilbert's disguise is exposed and Dolly declared she would marry him in'spite of everything She was Just a plain, old fashioned girl who wanted to marry the man of her choice Princess Angela andBrince Fortunatas revel their identities end announced the impending alliance between Superba and Elysia Qissie fell in love with Rosika and at the finish, the marital problems of their children brought Mrs. Fairfax and Oscar together So all ended in the happy fashion expected in good operetta plots CAST Mrs. Reginald Fairfax Quita Upton Dolly Pairfax Sally Givens Mrs. Vera Overca h Dorothy Puller Olivette Overoash Joan Schmidt oscar Qushington Steve Swearingen Augustus Percy Gushington Fete Baldwin Princess Angela Jo Ash Rosika Anna Kurth Prince Fortunatas Kent Young Rupert Bob Pord Gilbert Hunter Paul Bateman Cornelius Calvert Ted Merry Vanessa Van Millions Joyoe IJams Teresa Tre Billions Dorothy Dyer Geraldine Oottrooks Patty Pones The ensemble was composed of the following people; Joan Harris.

These formations are part of the band show used in competition with fifteen other Class C bands at this time. The theme of our band's show was A Salute To America.' As the band entered the football field, they used a regular close formation (eight rows, six in a row). This formation was quite colorful since their caps were covered. Two rows were red, two rows were white, and two rows were blue. Their first formation was a large block, red, white, and blue U. S. A. (see top picture). This was formed as they played America the Beautiful.5 Fhom this they moved into a shield formation and 1 played The Marine's Hymn. Next, the traditional anchor was formed and a salute to the Navy played— Anchors Aweigh. There final formation was the block 44 in honor of the Illinois' 44th National Guard whlchwas being reactivated in January, 1952. Our strutting majorettes during the 1951-52 season were: Joyce Ann Gehrke, Margie Karrick, Joyce Ann Rawlins, Donna Cook, Connie and Vivian Snow. The drum major was Dorothy Fuller. danced The first school-sponsored barn dance was held Friday, November 2. The G. A. A. was the sponsoring club.lAisic was provided by the Dude Ranchers of McLean and the dances were called by Bill Willis. The second dance was sponsored by the Pep Club on Dec. 15 to raise money to pay far the cheerleader'snew uniforms and bus transportation to out-of-town games. The Dude ranchers were again called upon for music and Shorty Colaw called the dances. The members of the sponsoring organizations donated pie, cake, etc. to be used for the cakewalks and refreshments. CLANG CLANG goes the bell.

They wrote Atlanta off as a total wreck, when the repair shop was doing a 24-hour business. surprise parties Then one day. although it didn’t happen overnight, these neglecting souls woke up with a bad taste in their mouths. Beason had been beaten. They passed it off as ’one of thoae things.’ Then Elkhart went down. The once-assured became a pretty skeptical lot. They paused reverently to bite their lower lip. Then happened along the tournament. The ’Pick the Champ’ Contest as an axle of viewpoint unveiled only one person, apparently in jest, who had written hurriedly, and without any great pains of pride. 'Atlanta' across his entry blank. SECRET UNVEILED Too late for the unsuspecting, the secret was out. A handsome, mild-mannered. scholarly coach ... a by-product of Illinois Wesleyan basketball . . . had been dealing a restacked deck. The Wings may have been weak sisters in early December. but they are nobody's cousin in late January. Sommers had the toughest job in the conference when the lid went up. He had been handed a team that won but two of 23 games a year before, and, almost before he had ran his charges once around the gym posts, his 6 ft. pivot mainstay. Harold Harris, checked out for six weeks with a broken bone in his foot. The Atlanta construction job had a new foreman. Nothing more. OLD SCHOOL BASKETBALL What Sommers seems to hava achieved is a compliment to the game of basketball as some still remember it. Atlanta not only had been taught plays and play situations. but employed them as well. The Redwing organization had a coordination about it that fairly shone in the mass jungle of tourney teams, each outdoing the other in eccentricities and map-less adventure.
