The CHARHIAN SPECIAL FEATURES The Little Prophet One dark night I was walking along a lonely deserted street trying to keep my spirits high by whistling loudly and wishing 1 were home in bed. when, suddenly, from behind a large old oak tree on the edge of a vacant lot. stepped the oddest looking little man 1 had ever seen. 1 was terror stricken; I tried to run away: but I couldn't move. Then he spoke to me in a very kindly voice, telling me not to be tTightened, for he was a prophet and would tell me anything I wanted to know. By this time I was beginning to feel more at ease: his voice was so friendly, and he seemed very pleasant. On closer observa- tion I could see that he w’as only about three feet tall and had a long beard. He looked just like the elves I had read about in fairy stories as a child. Somehow I wasn’t frightened any more and I asked him if he might tell me what each one of by classmates and I would be doing twenty years from now. He said he w’ould. so we sat down on an old tree stump and he began. First. he said. I want to warn you that learning of the future isn't always pleasant. Sometimes things don’t turn out as you think they should, but nevertheless everything 1 tell you. no matter how impossible it may seem, will happen. Now let’s go twenty years into the future. Wendell Ripley is now the owner of the Ripley’s Rollicking Circus. An odd attraction of his show’ is the rubber woman. Elsie Shamp. who can stretch her arms, legs and neck to at least three times fheir normal length. She has perfected this feat by years of practice. The man on the flying trapeze is John Steward, w’ho hangs in mid-air by his knees while hold- ing his accompanist. Floral Bergman, by his teeth. This daring performance takes much courage from both Floral and John. The strong man. Arthur Blaine, is in love with the tattooed lady. Shirley Snoke. but she wouldn't give him the broken laces out of an old pair of shoes. Mickey Ells and Hans Langmaaek are cut- ting their way through the jungles of Africa, armed to the teeth with two squirt guns, their cap guns, and a sling shot. They are hot ou the trail of the biggest animal in all the world, the Sphinx. Rosemary Beals has written a new book on her experiences, called My True Confes- sions. It’s the hottest thing on the market. Senator George Stucky of the Teetotaler party is opposing Senator Dick Huffman of the Funnel Gang party on the question of liquor by the glass. Richard Uren has made his first million dollars on the radio. He sings B.O.” for the Life-Buoy Company. Robert Casler and Kenneth Anderson are now two of the greatest physicists in the world, or so they think. Actually they spend most of their time making mudpies at the State Hospital for the Insane. Frederick Diamond, alias Hen-Pecked, is constantly being beaten by his wife and fam- ous model Joan Easley. It seems that Frede- rick can't make enough money to suit her. Jacquelyn Yund is now’ writing on her tenth volume on the ’Yund Theory of Evolu- tion'. She thinks she’s found the missing link. Lou Anne Potter has a unique position for a woman. She’s the champion hog caller of the world. Elw’ood Clark is serving a stretch in prison. He married Delores Satterlee, which would have been perfectly legitimate, if he hadn't been married to Irene Clark at the same time. Reverend Richard Derby has gone to the north pole with a missionary. He has given up trying to change the sinful ways of the people in this country and is going to try to convert the Eskimos. Roy Weaver, Robert White, and Robert Shaull were chosen, because of their prominent positions in their communities, to be the judges of the world-wide beauty show in New Charhian Awards Ingrid Bergman (Intellect» Harriet Mayhew. Gary Cooper (Intellect) Albert Foster. Lana Turner (Best Dressed) Shirley Gordon. Adolfe Menjou (Best Dressed) Dick Huffman. Jeanne Crain (Personality) Nancy Kerekes. Van Johnson (Personality) Curry Garvin. Gail Russell and Guy Madison (Steadies) Sallie Hale and Gordon Sparks. Ethel Smith (Musician) Jacquelyn Yund. Harry James (Musician) John Steward.

After careful study and thought they decided upon Martha Rochester as Miss Atomic Bomb of 1967. John Sattazahn, who is working for Martha Patterson at her famous night club in Chicago, is continually bouncing' out on their ears, the play-boys. Ed Bobcik and Robert Debler. They are continually trying to make passes at the lovely singer. Shirley Gordon, and the ciga- rette girl. Martha LeVan. Although the ‘Pat- terson Club' is known for its southern hospi- tality. John is kept quite busy. Douglas Mulholland is now the favorite crooner of the time. When the women hear him. they don’t sw’oon, they just curl up their toes and die. The Chamberlain’s 'Slenderizing Salon’ is known all over the world and is a blessing to many over-weight women who have gone there. Beverly Chamberlain has perfected a way to reduce without exercising. Cutting out part of your diet isn’t even necessary. You just stop eating altogether. The side-walk razor blade business in Char- lotte has been monopolized by Albert Foster. He has recently added shaving cream to his stock which he feels has boosted the sales 100%. Rita French and Melvina Taylor are the piano player and singer in the ‘Sousy Saloon' owned and managed by Robert Mohre. Karl Gearhart is the president of the Gear- hart Rest Home for the Insane. Two of his most troublesome patients are Maxine Pratt and Maxine Dillin. They are continually fighting over his ‘right-hand-man’ Donald Johansen. Barbara McGrath spent years on building up her muscles and getting in good physical condition. She has been fully rewarded for her time because she now’ holds the title of the World’s Champion Woman Wrestler. “The first woman mayor in Charlotte was elected in 1957 and she’s still mayor. She’s so 8tubl)orn that no one can get her out of office. She is Clela Gould. Joe Holmes owns the ‘Charlotte Super Bil- liard Room’. It is no ordinary pool room. The windows are decorated with pink wall paper, the floors are covered with deep carpeting: and lounging chairs are available to players so they won’t have to stand.

Some of the more prominent ones are Phyllis Piter. Mabel Robins and Bethel Parker. “Bruce Bryan and Mary Ann Lewis are cele- brating their twentieth wedding anniversary tills year. They have three sets of quadruplets. Fame and fortune have come to Mary Jane Krusell and Nancy Kerekes for being the only people to climb Mt. Everest. When asked how they felt about it. they Just said. ‘Twern’t nothing’. Douglas White is now working on a product that is guaranteed to keep false teeth from slipping, dropping, or wobbling, while laugh- ing. talking, or sneezing. Harriet Mayhew and Mary Mead are the best saleswomen in Podunk and have a trophy to prove it. They can sell anything from baby powder to lightning rods.

Robert Bandfield is now Professor Band- field. who has had a B.S. degree, a Ph.D degree and the third degree. He is the founder of the Bandfleld’s School for Brainy Brats’, where he is testing his theory of education, that the students should only be taught 10% of what they learn, because they forget the other 90% anyway. A newcomer to Hollywood, who is making all the ladies’ hearts go pitty-pat is Curry Gar- vin. His most famous role was in ‘A Weed Grow’s in the Onion Patch.' His leading lady was Rose Dunning, who incidentally is now six feet tall.” Then the little man said that he had told me what I had wanted to know and scurried off toward the oak tree. Calling him back. I said. You haven't finished yet. what am I going to be doing in twenty years? Oh yes. he said, and then he actually yelled at me, Dolores, Dolores. Dolores, it's time to get up. but it wasn’t his voice; it was my mother’s. I opened my eyes and sat up. It w’as morning and I was in my own room. I gave a sigh of relief and was very glad that it had all been just a dream. - • u - -

The CHARHIAN SPECIAL FEATURES Little Red Riding Hood’s New Adventure Once upon a time Little Red Rid- in Hood (Shirley Gordon) was skipping; down the path through the woods toward her grandmother’s house (Mary Joan Krusell), just a» she has been doing for hundreds of years, when all of a sudden she got an idea. She was tired of being • based by the same old wolf (Mick- ey Ells i down through the centuries and then being rescued by the same old woodsman (Art Hlaine). She thought that maybe she was getting in a rut, so she started off down another path in the opposite di- rection from her grandmother’s. She walked happily along for quite awhile. Nothing happened and she began to grow discouraged, when suddenly she heard music. She hurried down the path toward the sound and presently she found herself in a large clearing. In the middle of the clearing was a large building with a sign on the front suying Joe’s Place” from which the music was coming. Little Red Riding Hood (Shirley) waited at the edge of the clearing for awhile and watched people go in and out. She saw some she knew. There was Popeye (Bruce Bryan i and Olive Oil (Mary Mead) and the three little pigs (D. Der- by I. (Don Johansen), and (Hans l angmaack), and even Goldilocks i Mabel Robins) went in. They were all laughing and having fun. Finally she decided to venture out from behind the tree. She timidly walked up to the door and was about to go in. when the woodsman who must have been dizzy came stumbling out. He almost fell on her. He apologized in a rather crude manner and went away. She opened the door slightly again, and this time she squeezed in. The room was full of people; some were sitting at tables; others danc- ing. They w ere all having a good time and making lots of noise. She wondered what sort of place she was in; and then she remember- ed the words of her mother, telling her not to go near such places where people danced and drank. So she turned to hurry out. and. as she did so. who would she see but Grandma (Mary Jean) and the wolf (Mickey Ells). She was surprised to say the least, but anyw ay, now she knew where to go to take grandma her cookies without so much trouble.

President’s Message The 1947 senior class can look back on four successful years with each one a milestone in the build- ing of our characters. During these four years we have achieved many goals which were set before us. Such goals as the Christmas card sales, jamboree, dances and the journalism carnival are all excel- lent examples of whole-hearted willingness and co-operation of the splendid group of which 1 have had the honor of being president. In our four years in high school we have attained much knowledge from our classrooms, associations in clubs and other varied sources, out this is but a foundation upon which to build further knowledge. The future of the world depends upon young men and women who will strive forward to seek further knowledge to place upon the foun- dation which they built in high school. As our foundation period draws to a close and we peer into our post-graduation period, we may ask ourselves if we shall be a success. None of us will be a success unless we have breadth of vision which Is all important in the building of anyone's life. In conclusion. I should like to thank the advisers. Miss Holmes.

Review of The Best Years of Our Lives We’re the class of ’47. We began high school here in 1943. We look- ed up at the big. intelligent, digni- fied seniors, who towered over us in the halls, hoping that some day in the future we might be like them. As freshmen we began a whole new life, going to school dances, going to assemblies and even putting on one ourselves. We went to the games and to parties. Of course we had new. harder studies to tackle. We found out what sort of feeling you get when ou begin an exam. As sophomores w e had a little surer footing; we were used to high school life and could hold our own quite well. We were begin- ning to take our place as an im- portant part of the sports life. We sponsored some dances and added a few dollars to our treasury and began to feel quite important. We even had our echoed picnic at Pine Lake in spite of the weather’s be- ing exceptionally cold for June. The next year we were juniors and that was practically as good as being seniors. We felt we did quite a bit tow’ard keeping the school go- ing. Our magazines sales went very well, more magazines being sold than ever before. Our junior play, New Fires.” was successful. Now w e are seniors and this year has been the best of them all. even though we know that those seniors weren't half so big, dignified, or in- telligent as we thought back in the ninth grade. We sold Christmas cards to make money for our trip. We all worked hard on the journal- ism carnival to make it the success it was. We contributed a lot to- ward the success of many sports. To sum it all up. we’ve had a won- derful time in Charlotte high school and now we’re being graduated. We’re not sorry we’re leaving, even though w e’ll miss the fun and the studying too. because we're looking ahead to a bright future, which we have been in preparation for these past few years. Those years we can truly say have been, “The Best Years of Our Lives. First Impressions Bob Casler—I thought I'd never get to be a senior. Douglas Mulholland—I thought I'd never be as dignified as the seniors were. Dick Huffman—I thought the seniors were awfully big. (tall) but now that I am one myself I find that they aren’t. Don Johansen—Wanted to be out- standing in sports as Wayne Ter- williger and Mike Mathews were, and be as intelligent as Harold Cherry. Bob Bandfield—I felt all alone in the world and the school seemed as big as a castle. Irene Livingston—I thought all the upper classmen were conceited and I thought I'd never graduate. Beverly Chamberlain—I was scared stiff and could hardly wait for the last bell to ring. Theme of Movie Class Motto: On to Victory. Class Colors: Blue and Gold. Class Flower: Rose.
