class Prophecy I had recently moved to Washington and started doing some secretarial work for the F.B.I. I had been working hard all day and my mind kept leaving my work. Suddenly I started daydreaming. I began to wonder about my classmates and tried to recall what each one of them wanted to do when they graduated . i found myself in a daze and ten years in the future. Oh, how the years had flown. I was drifting and floating and found myself traveling on a big air-liner. As I sat back, a small stewardess came up to me and said, Is everything all right? And who do you think it was? It was ALICE FAYE McKEEL. She said that SAMBO RAWLS was the pilot of the plane in which I was riding. I go up and went to the cockpit and there was Sambo. I questioned him about the other classmates. He said that many of them were living in New York where I was going. He also told me that he and Alice Faye would show me around when we arrived in the city. When we landed we went into a bakery to get some doughnuts and coffee. The owner was none other than NORVELL JONES. We talked with Norvell and he said he was going to sell his bakery and become a scientist. As we were going into town I glanced at one of the most gorgeous homes and found it to be the home of ANN RIDDICK. We went in to visit her. As I was sitting in the living room I heard cries so I walked into the bedroom and found to my surprise that Ann had twin girls. That night Sambo took me to one of the largest theaters. I was just in time to hearCLYDE CANNON, a soloist in our glee club back in 1958. My visit in the city would not have been complete if I had not visited the schools. After browsing around the building for quite a while, I discovered that three of my former high school classmates were members of the faculty. I just had to visit their classrooms and see what a wonderful job they were doing. BOBBIE GARRENTON was the chemistry and physics teacher. SUE TAYLOR and JUDY WHITEHURST were primary teachers. I really enjoyed my visit to the school . Being exhausted, I went to my room and went to bed. The next morning I was ready to see more of the city. As I was walking along the streets I happened to buy a newspaper from a little boy and then I sawthe headlines: First Rocket Ship Being Launched to the Moon and who do you think was going on it ? TOMMY WHITEHURST. I started thinking how long Tommy had been wanting to make this trip. Now his time had come. Gee, he must be happy. I kept walking down the street and I happened to meet VERA WARREN. Vera asked me to go up to her house. She hod one of the most beautiful homes. Vera said she had become a housewife as soon as school was out and was now a mother. That night I went to a professional basketball game. There I saw LONNIE AYERS making the points for his team just as he did when he was playing for Bethel High. After the game was over I talked to Lonnie and asked him about BILLY ANDREWS. He said that Billy was living in Alaska trapping furs during the winter and in the summer he comes back to Bethel and is a game warden. Just as I was leaving the auditorium I thought I saw someone across the street whom I knew. As I started across the street I was struck by a car. I woke up in the hospital under the care of Dr. JOHN WHITEHURST. I hardly knew where I was and didn ' t know how I got there. He said I ' d soon be able to go home. The nurse handed me a magazine with a beautiful cover. As I turned the pages of the magazine I found many beautiful pictures. Who do you think drew them? BILLY JARRELL. The write up said that Billy had exhibited his works in a large art gallery. My dream was coming to an end. Someone was calling me. It was time for me to begin my work, but I wonder — could my dream be a reality? FAYE EDMONDSON Prophetess
