CLASS PROPHECY When a person is young lie has many ambitions. Some arc misplaced and without foundation: but others arc correct and prove true in a few years. It is difficult to judge and weigh possibilities but— Here is our prophecy: May 17. 1060—New Vork. New York— Betty Jane Glasscock, noted opera star, has announced that she will sing in the Mct’s production of “Carmen.” Singing the romantic lead Jose will be the tenor Joseph Scott. Featured in Carnegie Hall next week will be America’s most outstanding young composer. Douglas Harnett. His Flute Concerto No. 1 will be featured on the program and he himself will conduct the Philharmonic at that time. Also from Broadway comes news that Lee Rhoads. America's greatest actress, will take the lead in Vivian Cates’ new play, The Life and Loves of Catherine the Great.” Hetty Jo Singletary's new musical comedy, “The Silver Moon, was a great hit on its opening night. Helen Werlien, the star, gave a memorable performance which was even greater than previously expected. Robert Hill and his swing orchestra “The Climbers” has opened at his new lub The LV in Greenwich Village. Grace Easley has just completed a nationwide tour as a Home Demonstration agent. Marcia Guisingcr has opened a new nursery school. Margaret Kling, after receiving recognition as a stenographer, has settled down to personal homemaking. Roger Brittain has become manager of the new Stevens Dept. Store. ' Thelma Jumonville received recognition in the state for suggestions made on improving distributive education courses in high school. Jasper Westbrook, professor of nuclear physics at Harvard, has finally after years of research settled the controversy over the fifth dimension. Lawrence Liter and his assistant, Sam Robinson, have announc ed discovery of a new chemical to aid in the treatment of cancer. Jimmy Turner, advanced chemistry professor at Yale, has discovered two new elements, “Turnium and I.ouisianium. David Wall, professor of mathematics, was his co-discoverer. Velma E. Bourgeois, distinguished young novelist, is being seriously considered for the Nobel Prize for her novel. Idealism—Doorway to Life.” Movie producer Dave Kennedy is besieging her to sell the story for motion picture production, but she has given no final answer. Henry S. Hradsher, foreign correspondent for Associated Press, has just returned from an extended assignment in India. He will leave almost immediately to cover the annual art exhibit in the Louvre, Paris, France. The paintings of Elemore Morgan, Jr., and Hilly Stephens, his contemporary, will be featured. From Stockholm comes news that Bob Richards has set a new record in pole-vaulting. Also in the field of sports it is rumored that Chester Freeman has changed from the Pittsburgh Pirates to the Philadelphia Fagles. Phyllis Nau-man, world's most outstanding woman equestrian, has just returned from England's steeplechase where she was guest of honor. John Diehl, society announcer on the ABC' chain, was the first to give news of the approaching marriage of Gladys Reynolds to a famous doctor. Miss Reynolds has worked in New York as a Powers model. Her retirement from this profession has given Mac Wallace, financial backer of the Agency, no end of concern. But his scout. Jackie Dyer, has made a new find in Nancy Gianelloni. Kay Fogle man, social worker, has announced his intention to open a new crusade against the deprivations meted out to rural youths. Assisting him will be Jackie Pedarre. also outstanding in this field. Shirley Nolen, educator now teaching at the University of Missouri, has published her first volume of poetry. Tip from Washington yesterday was that .Senators Bert Babers and Don Hearin became involved over the approval of Billy Kidd as Director of Air Research in this country. The senators were in favor of putting industrialist Arthur Kunberger as co-ordinator for air. —That's all from New York at this time.
