W 1 a- Q CLASS PRIMPHECY C3 3: R J, C; IIMy last trip to the earthl,, this was the thought which ran a through my mind at the words I had just heard. My worthy and emi- g nent Professor in Science, the Honorable Donald Chandler, had just Q reminded me that I would probably spend from twenty to thirty years d on the planet Mars, to which he was sending me in his space ship. C3 Therefore, if I had very little chance of coming back I most assuredly would want something to entertain me those many years. Much of my time would be taken up in daily reports to the earth on the planet Mars itself, but besides a radio and a parrot I had nothing with which to fill my leisure time. It would take a much more brilliant person than myself to tell you why I decided to look up the history and the outcome of the graduating class of 1931 from Central City High School. a It took me a great deal of time to gather all the information, which I did by television and through the radio, but I finally had it all together. Taking the data which I had found I proceeded to put the names in alphabetical order. The following things were of the greatest interest to me for though the people themselves were greatly changed these names brought back fond memories: My greatest surprise was to learn that my little old home town had now become a thriving metropolis of one hundred thousand i11- haliitants. ' 1 Another, hut lesser shock, was to learn that Nancy1 Ayres and Roland Boelts were married and were living in Paris 4where Roland was a promising artist. . Kathryn Agnew had taken up piano teaching but was at the present selling electric pianos. Fred Davis was spending a few months under sea for the pur- pose of trying to discover WYlly Fish Swim? y He was going to write a hook on this. Can you imagine my surprise at learning that Berge Anderson, who should have been a ranger, was now an air mail pilot. Perhaps the mountains were too crowded. Tom Bartlett was an instructor in oil painting, having learned the art under his fathers instruction many years before. Dorothy Bellin was spending her time in foreign countries try- ing to find ways to wear her hair as becomingly as in 1931. Edward Carlson was a missionary in South Africa teaching the natives. And oh, my, if I didnit find Joseph Broom on a tour looking for statistics on IIIVlly the Wind Blows Away Important Papers? Helen Bryan was a director of the National Chorus for Altos.
