 we ' m« PROPHECY In 1958 our graduating class decided that in 1980 we would have a reunion. Because rwe were always up in the air about something in class it was decided that we would meet in outer space. Therefore, on the appointed day in 1980 we traveled from Atlanta to Washington, D. C., to leave Earth on Topnik, the hottest space ship in the galaxy. In D. C. we picked up Millie Lueschen, now President of the U. S. She was enroute to the moon to discuss peace plans with the Martians. Some of the members of our class were missing, but because it was time to blast off we all boarded the ship to continue our trip without them. We were destined to meet others on the way. For example, Marilyn Beccue was the head stewardess on Topnik . As the Space ship got underway, we had time to wander around and gossip with our former classmates. Barbara McCullough had been vacationing on Earth. She is an instructor at a navigation school on the moon. Her job: teach little children how to stay out of the way of meteors. Carole Bicknell had become a teacher of language. She teaches Earthlings Moonese, not Moonshine, Moonese. Mathematician Dan Patterson had not failed us either. He was our country's benefactor. At the present time he is experimenting with a plan for putting vitamins in space pills for air sickness. About that time the Captain of Topnik came back to welcome us on the journey. To everyone's amazement, our captain was Eddie Combs. A few hours later we arrived on the moon. We were greeted by Shorty Harris, dictator on the moon. Shorty said, EDVMJG IK D ) @?!R Z. 1 TRANSLATION: Welcome Cats . A tour of the moon followed and we realized why many of our classmates had not been on the ship. They were already on the moon. We visited the space port and found Captain Cleo Vef running it. She had wanted to be a pilot but regulations kept her grounded. On a moon farm we met Wesley Bell. Wesley raises bottled space juice on his push button farm. Dean Benedict lived across the field on his farm. He knows the botanical name of what he grew, the entomological name of the insect that ate it, and the phar-' maceutical name of the drug that killed it. In Rocketville, we met Jim Quiram, the local undertaker. He's not too successful because of the extremely low gravity. Carolyn Miller's beauty shop was a must on the ladies' list. She specializes in making blondes brunettes. People come to her from all the planets. Martians are her trouble; they are all color blind. Larry Thompson, we found, is coach of Kruger's Klever Kolosal Kalypso Kourageous Koy Kute Kitty Kats. Their next scheduled game is with the Atlanta Redwings. In the park we met Donna Pope. She is in charge of the Space nursery. Walking across the boulevard we were almost run over by a fast jetmobile. Dick Baldwin emerged from the dust. He is now Hot Rod Club President of the Interplantary Shavers. He was fined by Ron Nollman, who is now traffic chief from Moon to Earth. In the evening we ate dinner at Willa Jones' Pizza parlor. She serves pizza with star flakes. All during the meal, Earl Gardner tried to sell us a jet. He has become a spontaneous-high powered salesman for jets and rockets. In the morning we visited a factory. Larry Brandt was operating Chisel's Cheese factory, (chiseling cheese off the moon). Moon Sunday we all attended an interplantary church service. Wilbur Reid gave the sermon. We left for the spaceport after that and I, Rita Parks, radioed in my commentaries to my paper, The Special Argus Courier.
