I0 THE ERIE ECHO THE CLASS PROPHECY OF 1928 CContinued from Page 6.1 curls to uncurl. Martha had died a rather dramatic life. After leaving school she had met the Prince of Wales while travel- ing abroad. It was love from the start and on a cloudless night a few weeks be- fore the wedding while joyriding on his private schooner, the wind proved too strong for the fragile Martha and she end- ed her romantic life by falling overboard into the deep, blue sea and started for the Styx without hesitancy. Our journey was drawing to a close when I noticed two other classmates of Birmingham. The first of these was Paul Knott who had shown his ability as a business manager by establishing a factory in India near a doughnut fac- tory and here he took the holes from the doughnuts and used them in stuffing maca- roni. This did not prove sufficient to support his wife and children so he took up blind begging. He walked the streets of India continuously and was making money rapidly when one day a policeman stuck a gun in his face. He quickly opened his eyes thus losing his position as well as a few months sleep for he was forced to spend a few nights in the peni- tentiary. On his way home, to the great grief of his family, he forgot that he wasn't blind and shut his eyes and stepped in front of a machine. Now he wanders these dense woods awaiting the arrival of his wife. The other was Sylvia Frankenberg who had in the upper world been an aviatrix and once when making a flight to the arctic, the plane ran out of gas and she froze to death. She had her choice of either life and chose Hades, taking no chances of cold weather. Here my wanderings were cut short and I was conscious of Polly, my parrot, calling loudly for a cracker. SENIOR CLASS WILL fContinued from Page 6.1 Martha Heyman bequeaths her Gosh and Gee to her good friend Ruth Sikes. Her charming presence on the dance floor she leaves to Katherine Early. Martha also wishes to leave her ability as a basket- ball center to Helen Lees to have and cherish and pass on to the coming star athletes. Minnie Glime it appears is about to lose her famous giggle because she is leaving it to her friend and schoolmate Helen Lees and if she does not care for the aforesaid giggle the first one who picks it up may have it to keep and to guard for life. The much admired dimples which adorn her either cheek she passes on to Lincoln Wasem. SENIOR CLASS HISTORY 'Twas in the year of '23 That we set sail in our wooden craft In search of knowledge new. Although we brought the laugh As most all Freshmen do. We never once did shirk For we had a captain and a crew That couldn't be beat for work. Bus was the captain. that you will remember. And Erma was first mate. Paul also was an honored member The chief's assistant was his fate. How could we ever fail With them to boss the crew? The task was now to sail And make the rough spots few. So when ended our first green year With higher hopes to gain. With nothing else to fear We found it not in vain. The next year we're sad to say We found our number few For several members went their way But why, we never knew. To disappoint our captain We knew we couldn't do So we proudly put to sea again With fifteen in our crew. So thus another year was ended With a new one to begin. And every one his bit he did To help the crew to win. The third year found us fewer still With harder games to fight. And stronger yet our will To make our skies all bright. Louise was now made captain A good one too she made For our battles she could win. Martha was her first aid And just as fine was she. Then closed for us another year And better could never be. Now we're all Seniors bold We make our word the rule Our places we are bound to hold And are the envy of the school. Buster. our captain, again made we To guide us safely to our goal sublime. And Erma. I'm sure you'lI all agree As his assistant did right fine. Of Nelda, too, we're proud of course Our funds she used with utmost care. With her We complete our office force. And so the mighty gale we've had to And many storms at sea to meet. But as long as we all stick together We'll sure be hard to beat. We set about to begin again A-lthough in numbers we are few. With the three that are honored men And the seven that are in the crew. weather
