• — — SENIOR PROPHECY Becoming curious as to what my old school- nudes have been doing since 1 last saw them, 1 decided to resort to the counsel of a fortune teller. As 1 entered the mysterious parlor, hid- ing the secrets of tin past and future with its dim-lit interior and incense-laden atmosphere, I encountered a strangely garbed mystic. After I had crossed her palm with silver, she gazed into her crystal ball and answered my inquiries tliusly: HAZEL SUMMERS just can’t leave Ekalaka too long, so she will come back here to teach the students how to play basketball, soccer, volley- ball, etc. On the side she will teach history. CLARENCE ROWLEY, after attending col- lege for four years and doing advanced work at several well-known universities, now being the most highly qualified professor in the U. S. lias accepted a position at Harvard and expounds to his pupils the principles of nuclear energy and mathematics. On the side he figures up peoples income taxes for a nominal fee. JILL COOPER is found the owner of her own ultra-modern photographic studio in Hol- lywood. Her work is recognized as the best in the country and it is displayed in art galleries all over the U. S. Although surrounded bv count- less admirers, she refuses to sacrifice her career for marriage. JOHN STOREY, in sympathy with high school mimeograph operators, has invented a com- pletely automatic mimeograph, equipped with overdrive. As a sideline he operates a new line o! super markets, the best in the country. JEANIE BOGGS is the proud owner of a chain ol restaurants. She is famous for her revolution- ary invention of the 5° hamburger. CLARICE RICHARDS and her All-Girl Or- chestra are now making appearances at all the fashionable night spots in New York. BRUCE TEIGEN is the enterprising owner and editor of Ekalaka’s local newspaper, THE DAILY BLOW. His policy—the news, the whole news, and nothing but the news. BARBARA WELCH writes jingles and com- mercials for radio programs and also owns radio station WELCH. RUTH MALMQUIST is found as a poll taker for Duz soap. She goes around finding out how many people use Duz and what it really can Duz. NORMAN MAI2V1QUIST is known as a second Tommy Manville. He has had more wives than Carter’s have little liver pills. Maybe the women are just after his money because he is the most prosperous farmer in Carter County. GLADYS LASATER’S name appears as a by- line for her ADVICE TO THE LOVELORN col- umn which is published in Bruce Teigen’s news- paper. We find DAVID MRNAK up north trying to sell the Eskimos on the idea of installing frozen food lockers. As yet he has had little success. Out in the middle of the prairie, we find WILLA N1ES reading a copy of Twcnty-Lvc Delicious Ways to Prepare Mutton . You guessed it—she is the sole owner of 5,000 head of woolies. MIKE GROSS, after serving an 8-year stretch in the Navy, is now an old, retired sea captain. He was known as John Paul Gross in his young- er days and was quite famous for his daring ex- ploits in the South Seas. He now sits underneath a palm tree all day long and whistles at the native girls. RONALD PURDUM is using his charm and personality to persuade wives to purchase his special line of Purdum brushes, the only brushes that bear the Good housekeeping Seal of Ap- proval. This is merely a pass-time as he owns a uranium mine which brings in very profit dde returns. Evidence of this is the new Cadillac he is seen driving around town. We find PHYLLIS TOWNSEND performing miraculous feats on a high wire far above the heads of her audience. She is billed as the star performer with the Barnum and Bailey Circus. She is famous for her triple flip from one trap- eze to another. Oh no, this can’t be! But it is. PATSY MEYER as a bubble dancer appearing at all the better burlesque houses. She has never yet broken a bubble. PEGGY VOLIN is found in Camp Crook acting as the Camp Crook reporter for the Ekalaka Eagle. Our old classmate, FRANCIS FREESE, is a lifeguard in a famous California resort where he lies in the sun and flirts with the pretty girls. Couldn’t you have guessed it, though! DONNA KINGSLEY is dancing instructor at Arthur Murry’s famous studio. MARLENE FIGG is found in New York as a famous court reporter. She has just won her diamond pin for taking shorthand at 200 words per minute. SELMA TAYLOR is now living in luxury in Hawaii where she is employed as a secretary to a rich and eccentric man who believes in a two-hour working day. We had a hard time locating DAVID GROSS, but after long concentration we located him in Mexico where his dark, good looks are charming the Mexican girls. KENNETH PULSE is now the noted coach of the famous Notre Dame football team. As you can tell they must be good. This season his team Won 24 games out of the 25 that were played. FERN OXFORD is now known as a renowned child psychologist. If you’re having troublt with your child, just take him to see Dr. Oxford. She’ll straighten him out one way or another. She be- lieves that children should be brought up with other brothers and sisters and she practices what she preaches. She1 has 13 perfectly well-behaved children of her own.
