fur., VD -ml Tm U .fic tflyef The Senior Class Prophecy One evening as I was wandering through the city, I came to a theater. In front was a big sign which said, Request anything you want on the screen, and it will be shown. I thought I would like to know what my classmates would do in the future, so I went in and asked the operator to show me what everyone of them was doing during anytime of his future life. This is what I saw. The first thing that flashed on the screen was a large newspaper building. The Editor, Willis Munger, was dictating a letter to Helen Martin. In the next room were the assistant editors, Harry Beemer and Robert Strohecker. They were look- ing over newspaper articles and sending them to the big room. In this room were several employees using the hunt and hammer system. Three that I recognized were Brines Strong, Fred Schweer, and Reginald Moyer. Margaret Bell was writing the column of Aunt Sophia, who gave advice on love, marriage, divorces, etc., and Robert Hess was writing an If I'm Wrong Tell Me About It column. Lyndon Krohe was directing the men who ran the machinery, which was being oiled by Dale Rexroat and Charles Puckhaber. The scene then flashed to the out- side where I could see two men washing windows. They were Harvey Zeeck and Raymond Egbert. On the corner was a newstand, which was run by Johhny B., who also did a little bootblacking on the side. The scene now changed to a tea shop run by Helen Garm and Doris Trainor. The waitresses were Harriette Beatty, Mary Caldwell, Helen Bandy, Elloise Buck. Edna Walls, and Dorothy Wedeking. The head cashier was Gwendolyn Sullins. A well-known orchestra was playing. It was led by Vincent Long, and some of the members I recognized were Myron Coy, Bill Corcoran, and Ogle Thomas. Their motto was Let Long make The Time Short. Then I saw the city of Hollywood. There John Adkins was playing in a picture as Greta Garbo's leading man. The Tapping Trio, Pauline Ideus, Anna Hering, and Hazel Tucker, were dancers in the same picture. They were trained by our old friend Henry Dufelmeier. It was being directed by Merrill Goodell. The story had been taken from Robert Hartley's latest book. Josephine Martin, the lady of the soulful eyes, was being starred in her first picture. Lillian Mosier was the owner of the voice that sang behind the scenes. The picture now changed to a school. It was none other than our dear old high. Maxine Harn was patiently teaching a group of pupils how to write short- hand. Mary Huey was a gym teacher and was instructing the girls how to keep that girlish figure. As Junior Broeker entered the study hall, everything became still, for he was the principal. Down in the basement an old man was scrubbing the floor. When I looked at him closely, I could see that he was none other than Kenneth Meyer, the new janitor. The screen now showed a large farm. It Was owned by James and Isaac Avery, who were at that time harvesting wheat. Isaac and James were doing their part to help the non-employment situation. They had hired about fifty men to help. I recognized Lee Savage, Harold Schall, and Benson Hager. Annabelle Reichert, Carolyn Scheer, and Muriel Rohn were cooking for them. Muriel at the present time, was ordering Norvel Buck to set the table. I now saw a large office. Milton McClure, a famous lawyer, was just taking his secretary, Frances Haist, out to dinner. Then the scene flashed to the Old Folk's Home. Jack Schultz was just coach- ing the elder members in the art of football. Marion Simpson was the star mem- ber of the team, the captain of which was John Glenn. Helen Leonard, Ollie Phelps, Pearl Wessel, and Mary Williams were sitting on the front porch watching the practice and knitting. Y-7932 g g gg TWENTY-SEVEN
