Poge 21 CLASS PROPHECY OF 1948 Bobetta Hoin owned a beauty parlor, and Shirley Krueger and Arlccne Jurgess were co-editors of tlie leading newspaper. By this time they were well into the middle west anti everywhere they saw farms. Pass- ing by one, Joe noticed the name of Ray Wollenzien on the mail box. Of course he stopped to see Ray and was not surprised to learn that he had married Beth Rapson. However, he was surprised to find that Art Smith, Alvin Long, and Alvin’s sister, Edna worked for them. Ray told Joe that Murdock Leitch and Leslie Mcknight had a poultry farm a few miles away. Resuming the journey, they found the car was low on gas. As they pulled into the Super Duper Service Station, out ran two young women ready to service the car — Helen Schwerin and Eva Weiland. While they were chatting, the third attendant, Sally Walker came out. Looking across the street, they noticed a sign which read — Cars washed by Johnny (Mc- Donnell) while you fish with Bert’s (Yaroch) Bait.” Starting out again, they passed a big munition factory and decided to take a tour of it. They discovered the owners were Don Sams and Clarence Shadd, who brought west with them their secretaries, Elva Marie Blair and Iva McGeachy, and their bookkeeper, Lorraine Cornett. While watching a demonstration given by the foreman, Elwyn Capling, some acid was spilled on Joe’s hand. He was immediately taken care of by the doctor, Howard Bailey and the nurse, Joyce McIntyre. Upon leaving the factory, they noticed a great turmoil a ways down the road. They found the car of Omar Robart’s had collided with Dale Meinhold’s milk truck. Sheriff, Herbert Anderson, Jr. and coroner, Charley Brown were investigating the accident. As they entered Long Beach city limits, they noticed a sign that said Sullivan’s Shoppe.” The girls were immediately besciged with curiosity and forced Joe to stop. To their aston- ishment, they found their convictions were satisfied. Rosie had her most reliable salesgirl, Beverly Filion, help the girls pick out dresses designed by Mickey Alexander and modeled by Doris Hanson. Rosie told the girls that Mable Jean McDonald was a famous hat designer. She also told them that their former classmate, Deloris Robarts, was Dean of the Little (Phyl- lis) Boarding School for girls and that Emily McMillan and Bernetta Finkel were dieticians. They finally reached their destination after much pandemonium. 1 hey were escorted to Frances’ office where they were greeted by Dec McIntyre and Milly Youngs, who explained they were in town for the O. M. C. (Old Maids' Club) convention of which Dee was president and Milly was vice president. However, they were shortly interrupted by a bellhop who gave them a message from Jessie McDowell. Jessie, as usual, wrou!d be a day late for the conven- tion. Thus ended a very successful trip! ! Pat Herriman Phyllis Rapson Bert Yaroch
