SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY (Continued from Page 14) applause comes from the feminine part of the audience. Great praise should be given to Miss Riddle who started her on her literary career. Ann MacMillan—devotes most of her time to research work in Sociology. At present she is compiling a list of debate topics for high school students— the most interesting of which are: Resolved: “That the world ain t what it used to be.” “There isn’t such a thing as nothing because everything is something.” Resolved: “That a woman is in the right even when she's wrong.” Resolved: “That the best way of cultivating the voice is to be yell leader of your school.” Yell leading has great cultural value for the voice. Hope Walters—proprietress of “La Petite Xoveltie Shoppe” where we notice that the following articles are for sale: a mechanical powder puff, gum guaranteed to keep its flavor on a bed post overnight, the new moonshine cloth which even though washed is still good, silent alarm clocks, and numerous other articles too useless to be mentioned. Madame Sulaski, formerly Mildred Panchot, has just returned from Paris according to the Big Sandy Daily News. She has been on a buying trip for her Fifth Avenue Modiste Shop and now is eagerly beset by well-known society women, begging for just a word with her, just a word as to whether or not the frocks next month will be the popular eighth of an inch longer or shorter; whether burlap or corduroy will be the popular trimming; and whether it would be advisable to send to Montward and (Joinery for dress materials. Not one word do they receive in answer. Madame Sulaski merely smiles and re- fuses to divulge any of her vast store of knowledge. Thelma Moe and Luella Larson—Managers of the Heart Throb Dude Ranch. Run exclusively for homeless, heartbroken heroes—saxophone players preferred. They try to shed rays of sunshine on the darkened paths of these men by providing upholstered saddles with shock absorbers attached, bitless bridles, padded spurs and cork roads. They also run a matrimonial agency as a winter sport finding this work amusing as well as profitable. Luella Larson, Thelma Moe.

centennial SENIOR CLASS PLAY The class of ’SO presented “A Pair of Sixes” on May 10. Two men have a thriving pill business, but they can’t agree as to which is the more important member of the firm. The disagreement is becoming so marked that there is real danger to I he business if it can't be settled. At last they agree to dissolve partnership, call in their lawyer—and disagree most violently over the method of procedure. Finally the lawyer draws up a contract whereby each promises to abide by the outcome of a game of poker—one hand, the winner controls the business for a year; the loser becomes the personal servant of the winner, sub- ject to fines for impertinence for the same year. The subsequent embarrassment of the married partner, who wins, and the predicament of the bachelor partner, about to be married, cause gales of laughter. The loser's sweetheart helps him out of his predicament, and there is a suggestion that the business can best be managed by both men. The cast is as follows: George B. Nettleton - ----- - Harold Stack T. Boggs Johns ------ Walter Porter Krorne ------- Clarence O'Neil Miss Sally Parker ------ Violet Marty Thomas J. Vanderholt ------ Odin Blockhus Tony Toler - - - - Paul Williford Mr. Applegate ------- McClure V oung Office Boy -------- Ben Oliver Shipping Clerk ------ Paul Ohristofferson Mrs. George B.

Sir Porter: (anxiously) : Well, sir, y’see it was like this sir, it was rather marshy and when he was swimmin' sir, a turtle fastened its mouth on his toe and just about then sire Panchot began to sink, sir, and a mighty fowl swooped down upon him, mistaking his head for a mossy perch, sir, and—(heart- broken ly). Capt. Kackle-sea-sick: Shiver my timbers! There's dirty work afoot, sure! And is Panchot surviving?

(Capt. is ignorant of (he “belles bonnie as a May Stack i’s of brains) : ’Tis a sad plight, sir; Sires Bowed-in and Roam-egg fell into (he sea of matrimony. (Very crestfallen.) Capt.
