CLASS PROPHECY It is the evening of May 13, 1959. I am sitting in my study playing cards, a queer man has just appeared. He is of dark complexion and has a long white beard. As I continue playing, he studies the cards on the board, and as if by magic he begins telling me of my classmates of 1948-49. As I lay the Ace of Clubs on the board he says, “I see Venita Ann Tiller is in a Chicago night club playing her guitar in one of the top bands. As yet Venita is still unmarried.” As I lay down the next card, he saw Earl Barr and Patsy Huse happily married. At the present Earl is unemployed, and Patsy is working in Barnes hospital. Earl is especially happy over this. The next card takes him to a big work shop in town, where he sees Ray Littell and Henry Howald as the chief tinker-men of Center. Later on in the game he speaks of an old maid, who at the youthful age of twenty-six is still doing what she was at sixteen. Now who could that be .”.! Oh yes, our one and only Marjorie Ledford. Oh, what do we have here. Betty Lou Cole is Mrs. Edward Meyer and the mother of three children, Karen Lou, Robert, and Gustav III. They reside in their home west of town which he built a year after Betty finished school. Now, on with the game . We pick up the next card and find one of our classmates and his wife, whom he met while singing at Carnegie Hall. Now Bobby Rhodes sings to his twins, Connie Sue and Bonnie Lou. Now we come to the class pin up girl, who is looking over her mounting list of broken hearts. Need we say more. We all know that it is Doris Leake. We now see Reva Cragen and Bill Cornelius just married and settled on a small farm. Reva doesn’t want so very many children and Bill doesn't want less than a dozen. He considers that an average size family. Our next card is the joker and our visitor says that in a faraway town he sees Bobby Joe Palmer as one of the best pool players in the Crystal Pool Hall. Toward the end of the game we look in a small school room. The teacher is trying to explain some mathematical problems. Who could this be? Yes, it is Betty Moomaw. As we go down the highway to success we see Lloyd Meyers driving a truck. Lloyd hasn't stopped in town long enough to look for a wife. Now the stranger looks in one of the big offices, and who is it that we see at the typewriter? It is Jean Morman; Jean has fallen for the typewriter instead of a man. C. H. Weldy is still our handsome, roaming bachelor. Instead of President of the Senior Class he is the manager of the Bow-wow Dog Biscuit Company. Now we look into a hospital nursery. Guess whom we see? It is Dorothy Klever. She is getting quite educated on the subject. W. A. Calhoun is keeping us all curious about his intentions for the future. He still enjoys milking the cows. He hasn’t decided whether that will bring in enough income to support a wife and family or not. We see Betty Jo Horn in an office. She is very efficient in this work. Now we are down to the last trick, we see Pat Brothers in the Center State Rank. She is just about the top of it. Just as always, she hasn’t found a man that suits her. The little gentleman sighed, as he picked up his cards, and with a big smile he said, “What a class, what a school.” 11
