CLASS DIQOIDHECY 421 QDZ 411 Startled by a flash of light, I jumped to my feet and ,hastily prepared to depart from the secluded spot where I had been dreaming. A rose colored airplane, which I easily spotted in the darkness because of its many lights, attracted my attention as it darted here and there leaving a streak of silver in its wake. I was soon able to read what was written in the sky with the silver stream. Class of 1938 was followed by l950. Instead of hurrying away, I took my former position on the ground and eagerly read the prophecy of my classmates and teachers.
