CLASS PROPHECY It was a cold snowy morning in 1963, Senator Jerry Nail stepped off the curb to board a trolley for downtown Washington when someone touched his arm. Jerry , the creature exclaimed. Turning he saw an old schoolmate, Doug Clay, a commer- cial artist. Doug persuaded Jerry to let his urgent matters look after themselves for the day. They talked of old school days, and after lunch Jerry suggested they go to see a fortune teller and see if she could tell them what had happened to the rest of the graduating class. Within the next half hour they were seated across from the Madame in a two by four booth. The Madame made Jerry sit a little behind Doug because he kept trying to peek into her crystal ball. First , she said, we will see what is taking place in your own hometown. A long silence followed and then she told them this: Fred Richards is now manager of the Center and State theaters, and Der- mont Robbins is handling the enormous popcorn business. At the ticket window of the Center Corporal Lemar Melton is receiving a million dollar smile and three thirty cents tickets from cashier Beulah Reece. Lemar is proudly escorting Betty Carter and Lois Francis, two of the local nurses, to the movies. Coming down the street is Bill Austin and ]oan Rabb, now Mr. and Mrs., and Bill, Jr. Bill is the biggest dairyman in Lenoir. Across the street at the post office is John Garren, the town ' s only photog- rapher, pushing a package through the stamp window to Mary Louise Correll, for weighing. On the post office steps Dudley Nelson, Jack Childers and David Caudle are dis- cussing the man shortage. All three are still confirmed bachelors. David Caudle came very close to matrimony three times but each time had to hurry away to his drugstore on urgent business and Laura Laxton said she wasn ' t going to play second fiddle all of her life to ice-cream and alka-seltzer. Standing in front of Richmond Bern- hardt ' s hardware store are Patricia Pope and Betty Jo Byers, two secretaries, who are doing a little chatting on the com- pany ' s time. Inside Bobby Williams ' new department store Delia McNeil is trying to sell Juanita Bowman and Nellie Bishop the same dress. Charles Bush, who is sup- posed to be repairing the neon sign, is perched on a ladder looking in the second story window, while Elane Safford and Joan Warren model dresses for Therman Clark. Therman wants to buy a dress for the little wifey, Ethel Simmons. Nearby Agnes Thompson and Barbara Frye are discussing the newest thing in movieland, All or Nothing at All star- ring Mozelle Robinson and Claude Yates. Jo Haas plays Mokie ' s rival and gives her a hard time. In Harold Hood ' s pool parlor, Wayne Haigler (who claims to be a salesman for the Standard Oil Company in China but who has never been any closer to China than Joe Winkler ' s chop-suey shop) and Earl Holman are having a little time argument about a little tiny black ball. From a window over the pool parlor hangs a sign painted on the skull of a pre-historic animal which says: Are you bothered with broken bones, headaches, or pains? Come in! Dr. Holloivay will find it. Surgeon Hoke will re- move it. 18
