Prophecy January 1, 1955 NEW YEAR’S EVE Well old diary, here we are beginning a new year. I attended the New Year's game and saw Stanford’s great eleven, coached by William Weaver, Sr., smash its way to a thrilling victory over the Army. William Weaver, Jr., was the flash of the game. He scored both touchdowns for Stanford. Mrs. Weaver, formerly Miss Hazel Allen, attended the game and cheered for Stanford. February 14, 1955. VALENTINE DAY Received many remembrances from old friends, among them, a card from Mrs. Johnny Miller, nee Miss Eleanor French, who, with her husband, Johnny, is taking jungle pictures for the British Congo Expedition in the heart of Africa. March 17, 1955. ST. PATRICK’S DAY Saw in the “Times” that the United States Treasurer, Mr. Jesse Sellers, and his wife, the former Miss Helen Huff, are returning to America after spending their honeymoon in the historic old haunts of the Emerald Isle. April 21, 1955. EASTER Attended the Easter party given by Mr. and Mrs. Fidroeff. Mrs. Fidroeff was the former Miss Vivian Carroll. Those attending were Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Janssen, nee Miss Elsie Johnson, and Miss Mary Lcu Carter, still single, but being pursued by that handsome Russ Latham. Mrs. Rutherford, the former Miss Bobbie Blackburn, sang a song from the late operetta, “Almond Blossoms.” May 12, 1955. MOTHER’S DAY Dear Diary: Attended church today and received the shock of my life when Mr. and Mrs. Warren Pinney, nee Miss Edith Cruncleton, and their six offspring, filed down the aisle and occupied the pew directly in front of me. As I left the church, I literally fell into the arms of an old flame of mine, Miss Ellamote Sanders. We had dinner together and talked of old times and old acquaintances. May 30, 1955. MEMORIAL DAY As I stood at my window on the forty-second floor of the Bannolpin Hotel, I heard the roll of drums, the faint sound of martial music, and the approaching cheers of a great crowd. Dashing downstairs, I made my way through the crowd and saw Leonard Smith and Leslie Burnside mounted on great white steeds at the head of of the seventy-second infantry. Returning to my room I found a card left by Mr. W. R. Troutt, a prominent insurance man, and an old classmate. (13)
