The Algonquin .. Canton High School Class Prophecy - 1938 Good evening. ladies and gentlemen! We are broadcasting from the Super-Autogyro of 1948 now cruising over the U. S. at an altitude of 20 miles in the stratosphere. This evening we will visit, by the aid of our 500 inch telescope. the various members of the Canton High School graduating class of 1938. This program is being sponsored by a former member of that class, James Nash, now president of Super-Autogyros Incorpor- ated. And now for the 0tll0l' graduates of 1938. Circling around Canton we see Connolly Barr emerging from the doo1's of good old Canton High. Now don't be alarmed. He is there now as the Latin teacher, not as a student. Why. there's his bosom pal, Bill Bell, now Professor of English! Directly behind the Grammar School is the gigantic Besaw Skating Emporium, sponsored by that well known magnate of big business, Frederick Besaw. Featured artist on the nightly program is that S5100,000 per week star, Mavis Shaw. However, due to a pending 510,000,000 movie contract, Miss Shaw will be in Canton only two weeks. At the end of that time she will return to Hollywood to make a series of pictures with that adored idol of millions of feminine movie fans, Leo Apollo Kelly! Now we return you to our New York studios for ten minutes of swing and sway with Kenny Mayhew and his Hoosier Hot- shots. There will be a trio starring Kenny at the drums, Jimmie McCormick with his silver-tongued trumpet, and Arthur Gary, master of the jews harp. We are now flying over the poultry farm, best in the state. which is operated by Otis MlacDonald and Ashton O'Brien. It has been rumored that this farm owes its success to the poetry that Ashton writes and reads to the hens. There will be a brief pause for station identification. Back again to the Super-Autogyro. This time as we fly lower, we see Pauline Peter- son and Mark Sellis, with their usual escorts, but this time it's their own family, not hers. YVe have just received a special news flash here at the Super-Autogyro, telling us that Donald MacFadden. prominent District At- torney of New York City, has just been fined for the sixth time for contradicting His Honor Glenn Newman, who has risen to the high position of justice through his expres- sive manner a.nd excellent ability in public speaking. Just a minute folks. Mr. Mac- Fadden has just been fined again for being two hours late at his own hearing! Another news flash! Fifty people in one of the well-known hospitals, built by that millionaire philanthropist, Richard Murray, have become critically ill. due to improper feeding. Frances Howard. the head dieti- tian. is being held. pending investigation. As we circle over the hamlet of Morley, we notice a cozy little farm tucked away in the hills. This is the humble abode of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Lawrence. Mrs. Lawrence is the former Ruth O'Neil. On a neighbor- ing farm, resides one of their former class- mates, Jack Moore, now a successful farmer. The Super-Autogyro is now speeding ac1'oss the continent to California, where Maxwell Fisk, seven times winner of the Nobel Science Prize, is studying the action of split atoms on ice cream. Mhx isn't lone- some out here, for several of his high school classmates are also enjoying this sunny climate. Mildred Brown, noted clairvoyant, has a studio in Hollywood, where such famous personalities as Dorothy Todd, news- paper columnistg Harriet Brown, noted gown designer: and Stanley Thompson, temperamental movie director, come to have their fate predicted. Back again to New York State. This time we take you to the State Fair, where that renowned judge of farm products, Clisson Brown, has been asked to judge a pint of rye and a bushel of the same grain. Mr.. Brown has decided that a dollar for the first. is too much and sixty cents for the second is too little. Another entry is Warren Whit- temore. Pardon me, folks, Warren's 1,0001 pound porker is the entry-my mistake. Back to Canton, now the metropolis of' Northern New York, we see the Dawley Garage which occupies one whole block. The most remarkable thing about this: garage is the large number of cars sold by that master of super-salesmen, George Dawley, owner of the establishment. He sells every prospect a car and all his pros- pects are women. Second only to George is Paul Patten. That static which you hear is caused by a huge black cloud through which we are now passing. A correction, please. The cloud is merely a swarm of Edmund Peterson's' bees. Mr. Peterson is a world famous. authority on bees, and his equally famous assistant is Herbie Grant. Mr. Grant is quite immune to the sting of the bees, for he was stung several times in high school. Leo Hewlett, professor of history at Harvard. will broadcast from this station later in the day on the subject, Why Study History? Professor Hewlett's well modu- lated voice has won its way into the homes of millions of intelligent listeners. He at- tributes his interest in history to Mr. Alli- son. his history teacher of high school days. And now to the nation's capital, Wash, ington, D. C., where a huge federal drilling project has just been passed. Donald Nash, following in the footsteps of his father, has secured the contract. However. the act provides that each Congressman shall have his teeth fixed and Donald, being a success- ful dentist, will limit his drilling to their molars.
