SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY This is an extract from the ship log of the S. S. Cromwell on a voyage from New York to Liverpool. August 2, 1952: The S. S. Cromwell left New York Harbor at 11:00 A. M. today. Weather good and promises to be fair for entire trip. A gentle southeasterly wind, blowing. Picked up a few gobs for this.trip. Have some queer passengers on board. Think the trip will be v®rY ener- taining Young chap named Dugan proved to be quite a pest. His work is divided between scrubbing deck and taking lessons on the harmonica however, he is supposed to be a sailor. August 3, 1952: Fair weather. This indeed nroves to be an Interesting trip. Found out Lady Ruthette Reedinski is on ship. Seems to me I used t ? know her — her face iooks familiar. She said that she's on ner way to'join her fiance Mr. C. Fraser who is studying medicine in Berlin. Ahi Now I remember. Fraser was in my senior class — why we Srf “ uated together—It se-ms like there was a Reed in our class too, but no Reedinski J August 3, 1952: Caught First-Mate George Becker writing another letter while on duty. This is the second time.this week. He's really stuck on this last one. Thought he'd get enough of writing notes the time h® the mumos when he was a senior. A heavy northeastern and rain report- ed for tomorrow. I hone that frail blond can take it . August 6, 1952 At last I Calm weather. These last days were quite a trial ------ between trying to get Dugan.to work more and cut out the harmonic lessons — and trying to calm down the peoole in the t I've had quite a time of it. That blond opera singer Miss Saatoff has been a big help. She's been singing some heartbreaking songs to them and ma.'e them forget their troubles — made me forget Dugan and mine, too.
