CLASS PROPHECY The golden morning sun peeps over the snow-capped mountain tops on a peaceful little dude ranch spread over a picturesque valley. This western acreage belongs to none other than Slim11 better known to his old class-mates as LeRoy Leeck. At this early morning hour he 1s going about his numerous chores, preparing for the big day that is to follow. Slim Is holding a reunion of those that grad’.iated from his Old Alma Mater High School In Burt, Iowa. Those were the good old days— back In 1946. By noon everything is shining and In It's place for the company that will be coming In the afternoon. The barn has been cleaned out, all the cattle fed, and the saddles polished up for the rodeo where Slim will demonstrate some of his expert horsemanship. Upon arriving at the hous® he Is handed a telegram saying that Richard Garman, who took a dose of his pills that he selling, and was sent to the hospital. And what a coincidence that it happens to be the same hospital where Doctor Evelyn Becker is located so that we rest assured that he will recover soon. Slim had formerly received a letter from Mr. and Mrs. William Madsen stating that one of the pug-nosed kids had the measles so they would be unable to attend. Mrs. Madsen Is the former Janet Lou Sage, needle to say. Mr. Madsen, or Bill, has a prominent job as an electrician. Relaxing in a soft easy chair for a while to read the morning paper he Is startled to see Mary Ellen Steward's name on the front page, • ■end- ing on he finds that she Is hot on the trail of a notorious criminal, as she is an F.B.I. agent now. He also reads of one of the trials going on where Frances Habeger, a famous lawyer, is trying the case. Glancing out of the window Slim sees a cream-colored convertible enveloped in a qIquA. of dust approaching. It must be the first of my guest6, he thought as he hurried to the door. Just then with a screech- ing of brakes It stopped, and out stepped Shirley Harvey, who has been attending an exclusive girls' school. Greetings were exchanged and Slim Shirley went Into the ranchhouse to visit. Slim Informed Miss Harvey that a number of the others were coming In a chartered car on the train, and the engineer is not Casey Jones but Jim Fredrickson. Among these coming of the train are the honorable Rev. Presthus. Yes, we alwajrB knew Joe would amount to something, but never quite pictured himas this. Kenneth Schneider, owner of the Allanison Car Company, and his secretary LaVonne SMpler, D0nald Andreasen, who Is now an Interior decorator, and Beverly Bussle who Is in the Beatity business. Slim was expecting them any time now so he hurries out to get the surrey ready so he can welcome them in western style. Hitching up the horses he was surprised to hear a roaring soud In his ears; looking upward he sees a silver streak which Is slowly circling and—yes, landing in -outh pasture. He leaps on the old bay and goes out to see who It can be. Nearing the spot, he sees a tall lanky form stepping out of the cock-pit. He immediately recognizes the figure as that of Dale Lockwood; come to think of It, he always did have his mind in the air. Slim takes his guest In hand and takes him to the ranch-house to visit with Shirley while he goes to meet the train.
