PROPHECY OF THE CLASS OF '39—Continued we see a young man hobbling along on crutches. As he comes closer we see that It is Don Coates. He must have accepted that scholarship to play football at Colgate. The parade is passing quite fast now, and the next to come into view are the three musketeers of the Ciass of '39: Doris Bilyeu, Christina Dunlap and Clarice Ferguson. Their escorts are the dashing young men who have made good in the movies, Charles Brammer, William Gettman, and Glenn Goodfellow. The next two people are riding horses and we see that they are 0 Billie Brown, the first woman President and her private secretary and husband, Robert Currie. Fol- lowing the horses a beautiful new Packard comes into view. Driving it is Melvin Travers, while re- clining in the back of the car we see Mary Rury, Katherine Phillips and Charlotte Bellows, now the owners of a swanky beauty shoppe on Park Avenue. Next we see Donald Flaherty business manager of the Crego and Crego Farm Supply Co. , whose owners are Warren and Dorothy Crego. What’s this? The mirror is clouding. But wait! It isn't clouding at all; it's just Robert King, now with the Ford Symphony Orchestra, coming over the hill. King passes on and we see Donald Beebe, now catcher for the St. Louis Cardinals. Don is reading a copy of the Times, edited by Mary Alice McNeill. We look closely at the front page and there in the upper left hand corner is an article headed, The Long and Short of It, written by Robert Emerson and Ann Dighi. Another article that comes to our attention is Helpful Hints to Harassed Housewives, written Dy our own Frances Donahue. Beeb turns to the sport page and we see that Clarence See. now the goalie 'or the Ramolers, has had only ninety-eight goals scored on him this season, due to the marvelous oefense work of Brad- ley Abbott. In looking over the rest of the page we are not surprised to see tnat Bernard Smith has qualified for the national golf tournament and that Raymond Field is running the hundred yard dash in the Olympic’s next summer. As Beeb turns to leave he folds the paper and we see a blaring headline which reads, Flora Grome, winner of the national knitting contest—Patricia Flynn a close second. The machine shakes; we watch the mirror closely, and there coming over the nill is a huge bus. I he driver is Edward Rourke. Tnere is a sign on he side of the bus which reads, The Ten Pretty Girls, William Arnold owner. The bus rolls by, and looking through the bus windows we are awed by the beauty of the ten pretty girls, who are Thelma Abbott. Mildred Sort, Eleanor Greene, Anna Kelli- cott, Mildred Grome, Alice Beebe, Marian Fravor, Catherine Heron, Lillie Currier and Florence Wil- liams. Behind in his open sport model is James Weeks, advertising manager for the ten pretty girls, and his wife, Hattie Bartnikowski. Another truck comes into view and we see that it is Earl Jacobs' Acquacade which after its suc- cessful showing of the World's Fair is now touring the country in search of work. Upon looking closely we see that some of the beautiful girls are Ann Bazluki, Norma Ostrander, Jeanette Rogers, Eliza- beth Holland, Virginia Whitney, Doris Schulz, Alice Patchett, Betty Jane Hamilton, and Fannie DiToro. All of these girls learned to swim in the Seneca River. Earl Jacobs has a beautiful show and has just received the exclusive right to sing the new song hit of the season entitled Ten Little Fishes, written by those two great composers Robert Snow and Robert Storm. (Snowstorm Inc.) What's this? Here comes William Davenpori carrying a sign which reads Don't buy at the Zahn Gaylord Swanky Dress Shoppe — Unfair to or- ganized labor. Close behind William is George Pettit carrying a similar sign. Two girls behind George are also fighting for the same cause, they are Betty Foster and Constance Connell, now mem- bers of the unemployed army but formerly models at the Zahn Gaylord Swanky Dress Shoppe. A billboard truck passes, driven by Leo Pfrang; it reads that Medbury Smith and Vernon Racha, now great Broadway showmen, ere going to produce DULCY starring Jean Brock, with Don Thompson as her leading man. In the supporting cast are Grace Navin, and Wilma Bratt. The advertising manager is still Betty Jane Wilber, who got her experience as advertising manager or the senior play. Mildred Loope is property woman. Then the mirror fogs and when it becomes clear we see not the road over this hill but a beautiful building. In the front yard of this beautiful build- ing is a huge sign which reads, Bowers. Mercer. Blagoff, School of Correspondence. Advice to the Lovelorn is our specialty. Norma Woodruff, Corresponding Secretary. It is a very beautiful building and we are surprised to see that no one is entering. 3ut wait! Here comes a young man and woman. Who should it be but Jean West and Jack O'Brien who are met at the welcoming desk by Dorothy Lou Flanders, another graduate of B. H. S. in 1939. They are here to straighten out their difficulties because they are thinking of getting married. The senior parade ends, and so we leave the fun house to ‘ake a ride on the roller coaster. We climb slowly up the first and finally start the fast ride to the depths below. ZoooooooM. JOHN MOST RANT DICK TARNCW

SENIOR PLAY On May 19, the senior class presented its annual play, entitled Dulcy.” a three act comedy by George S. Kaufman and Marc Connelly. Mrs. Martin E. Lower was in charge of the production of this amusing storv The plot centers around Dulcy's attempts to sim- plify her husband’s business transactions. The hus- band, Gordon Smith, a manufacturer of jewelry, hopes to merge with a larger firm owned by Mr. Forbes. Thereiore. Dulcy invites Mr. Forbes, and his wife and daughter to a week-end party, along with a movie scenarist, Vincent Leach, and a rich musician, Mr. Van Dyke, whom she chanced to meet at an afternoon party. )cm Sterrett, Mr. Forbes' advertising manager, nomes to see his boss “on business, but is really The cast of the play f Dulcy .............

Dulcy learns of the plan, and enlists the aid of her brother, Bill, to help carry it out. However, Bill has ether ideas, and manages to get rid of Leach. Angela then marries Bill, whom she really loves, and returns to Dulcy's home. Mr. Forbes is pleased with the marriage and decides to take Gordon as his partner, giving him an even greater share of the concern than he had hoped for. Mr. Forbes, who believes his wife has been pay- ing too much attention to Mr. Van Dyke, forgives her when, Van Dyke is taken away by his cousin Patterson, who explains that Van Dyke has hallucina- tions concerning his prowess as a business magnate. dws: Jean West John Nostrant ....
