CLASS PROPHECY We are gathered here today, alumni and children, to celebrate the reunion of the 1954 graduating class of Chapel Hill High School. Our class historian, Ruth Hundley Vickers, will give us an account of the events that have taken place since our graduation. The Gallagher, Hedgpeth, and McAllister Hospital fformerly N. C. Memoriall is flour- ishing under new management? . With head doctors, Mike, Ned and, Scoop directing the proceedings, many of their former classmates of CHHS are now employed. The Co-Super- intendents of nursing are our own Jane and Roxada, while Jackie, when not entertaining the public with her ever popular Carrboro Lights , is the left-handed man to Carla, the head pediatrician. The evereffective medicines are supplied by the only legalized drug-peddler in the county, Smug Wall, The hospital's Grade -A sanitation record is upheld by Speedy Rosemond, who keeps strict discipline over his janitors and orderlies. C. M. Proctor, Jr. monopolizer of hospital cafeterias all over the state, makes ours his home office. Lorin and Julia are managers of the Sloan's Hospitality Shoppe, which is located near the entrance to the dental department, directed by Dr. Robert Ross, Dean of Denistry. His able assistant, Anzy McKnight, when not chasing her twin boys, is conducting a class for beginners in dental hygiene. The nurses are proudly wearing their new uniforms designed by Joyce of the House of Grossman. Carolyn, very enthusiastic over her new Shotts ambulances with 4-wheel drive, has chosen Bryan,Bil1yC. and Leonard as drivers. June and Mary Sue have charge of the hospital's laundry trucks, which are also equipped with 4-wheel drive. Elsewhere in our fair city we find Patsy Poythress, our own Miss America of 1956, and her partner Joan Norwood, running a very successful modeling agency. The partner- ship of Fentner and Blackwood is doing a booming business as the only civil engineering firm in town. Carolyn Jane is very efficiently putting forth slim young things from her Madame T-Bone's Reducing Salon. Old Moneybags McGavran and Every-Ad-Counts Hun- dley are collecting 1392, interest through their Make 'Em and Break 'Em Loan Company much to the dismay of Carnie Joe Clark, the president-elect of the Bank of Chapel Hill. Gerald Cheek, finally retired from high school, hasjust completed his third volume of The Delights of School Days, which is making the best-seller list. Orange-Blossom Latane has just accomplished the perfection of his Big Orange Drank. Ann Mclver and Shirley Craw- ford have caught their Strowd twins and are raising their own. By the way, Old News-Nose Margaret has started Chapel Hill' s first daily news paper, The Morning Bulletin. In other parts of our country we find more of CHHS alumni making the headlines with their various jobs and positions. Martha Davis, the only real drama star to issue forth from Miss Lewis' dramatic classes, is currently being seen on Broadway starring in her own production of the revised edition of The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, re- cently banned in Boston. Gordon Proctor and Charles Pendergraft have broken the record for the collection of royalties on their firstbook which is exploding all theories on physics, setting scientific reasoning on its head. Coach Tommy Lloyd, mentor for the Hill Top Totterers , is having a busy season since his All -American, Vic Huggins, has finally peel- ed off his cast. We read in the new York Times that Admiral James Michael Campbell has received from the President of the United States, an award for his outstanding work in the U. S. Coast Guard. The President is our own William Hotelling, whose election by the Whig party ejected from office the remaining minority of Republicans. The only real industrial CHI-ISer is Prabir Roy, who was voted Chapel Hill's Best-Dressed Man, is manufacturing Green Jackets and Blue -jeans with great acclaim. Those not with us today include Ellen Braur and Harriet Horney, who on the 6th of June, 1954, Cspokej concludingly to Miss Lewis on certain principals of Proconian manage- ment. May they rest in peacel Well, gang, that's about it. Let's all adjourn to the picnic tables situated on the site of the old Snack Shack building and dig in!

Nancy Woodard and Billy Thomp - son, best dancers, are oblivious to the fact that th e biggest flirt, Jimmy Campbell is patiently waiting to cut in. 1 Filling their capacity as friend- liest, J o an N o r w o o d and Charles Fentnerlend a steadying hand to Jane Hogan and Vic Huggins, most athletic, obviously in the prime of condition. .drama Th e b e s t -looking boy and girl, Murray Wall and Patsy Poythress don't seem to realize that the best- dressed boy, Lorin Campbell, is pro- ceeding to break up abeautiful friend- ship. Or will Patsy mind ? fShe's best-dressed, tool. 7 It is also necessary that we men- tion three other important camera- shysuperlative S. They are Mac P r o c to r and Julia Voorhis - most mischievous, and Anzenette Andrews- most musical. In this obviously posed picture, two most intellectual and studious people, Ellen Brauer and Scoop Mc- Allister appear to be boning for a rather important exam. M a r th a Wociferousj D avi s and Harvey fThe Witj Stoffer are not hav- ing a hard time being most talkative, while Lelia Snipes and Robert Lassiter are politely being most quiet. r -nmwy f 1
