CLASS PROPHECY As I walk up the old mountain road toward the old wizard's enormous dilapidated house, I write down the last of my classmates’ names. It has,been.ten long years and I intend to find how each of my classmates are and what they are doing now. My knees tremble as I enter the old house and -butterflies syrt flying in my stomach as I explore the old house. The old wizard steps into the hall from a side»room and motions me in. Before I realize what happened, I find myself at a table with a small Crystal Ball in front of me. The wizard asks me what I want. I tell him I want to ADE Bleete snare people and these places, andI hand him the list of names. After making adjustments to the table, heasks i five dolifrs™ After receiving the money, he flips aswitch and the Crystal Ball flashes from dim to Pane several Py and finally leaves a dark rectangular space in the middle of it. ; A few more adjustments and a name sign of aschool appears in ne Crystal Bal The sign looks very familar except it reads Buies Creek Elementary School instead of Buies Creek High School. By this picture, I assume that the schools of Hani ey must have finally consolidated. The Crystal Ball flashes to nothing except the good wotteot a large Dolidated school. The wizard tells me this is the part Buies Creek plays in the new school. The Crystal Ball goes dim and finally out. I ask, 'What happened''? He says, Five more dollars please: it takes a lot of electricty to run this little machine. After five more dollars we continue on with my classmates in alphabetical order. We see Joseph Baucom standing beside his barbeque grill with four or five girls bragging about his new Ford. The Crystal Ball shakes, trembles, and flashes as we see Carolyn Currin very busy trying to show her ability for keeping things straight as secretary of a large firm. Now a flash to beautiful Hawaii where Carole Gaskin is happily married to a nice Air Force Capt. The Crystal Ball nowshows Max Gregory as theowner andmanager ofthe Mac Gregor chain sporting goods. We nowSee apicture of Randy Gregory working hard in alarge hospital after receiving his medical degree. Horizontal lines and vertical lines and buzzing sounds come from the Crystal Ball. At this the wizard get upfrom his chair rather embarrassed and slaps thetable with his hand and sets back down. Now witha rather clear picture we see Jo Ann Hall doing an excellent job of secreterial work for the General Electric Co. oe As the Crystal Ball continues its short flashes from one classmate to another, it catches Donald Johnson behind afancy desk in his gitics with his name and title of Public Accountant on his door. Just across the. Mason-Dixon Line we see Horace Edgar Johnson Jr., on a door ina Professional Building with the title of Psychology on it. I know he has had a hard go at it, so let's not bother him. Now we see a nice charming but busy wife working very hard to show het husbiied that she cares and this can-be no other than Laverne Johnson. The machine is beginning to fade again and just before it goes out we may see Neil Johnson carrying onthe responsibility of awifeand mother very happilyto Maurice Johnson. The machine or Crystal Ball goes blank and the wizard makes some kind of adjustments to it and finally get.it.to working again, The Crystal Ball flashes and buzzes and goes out incomplete driness and-the. wizard doesn't seem to be able to fix it right away, so I look throughthe Senior section of my yearbook until he can fix the machine.
