saffoT'5'gt SENIOR CLASS POEM Up the years we've climbed with care Facing problems everywhere, Week by week, and day by day, We still must journey on this way. Now life whispers that we must Not let those careful teachings rust. We have our burdens, hurts, and pains, But countless are our pleasant things. If success comes, as we hope it may, And if we should climb to fame somedayg Of the people here in this neighborhood Our thoughts will always be kind and good. Como what will or when it may, We face the future without dismayg And though the road be stormy and rough, We fear no problems, however tough. Our faith and ability to do and dare, Will help us, life's problems to solve and share By Richard Burns

SEHICR PROPHECY It was a lovely warm day in June of l94O. I was strolling through the streets of Chicago when I ran into nSappon, an old comic friend of mine. He asked me to lunch with him at his home and having nothing else to occupy my mind, or rather my stomach, I accepted. Sappo was an inventor and scientist and was very en- thusiastic about his latest invention, UThe Elixir of Truth Powdern, which he expleined when sprayed on an endividual would make him tell the truth concerning anything asked him. I immediately thought of the Senior Class of Chili and hit- vpon a plan that would necessitate his cooperation. He was to permit me to spray this powder on him and then I would ask about each member of the class and see what they will be ten years from this day. He agreed, and after performing the necessary operation and arrangements, I hurried into my act because the effects of the powder might soon wear off. The following astonishing facts were revealed: Donnabelle Bemenderfer ran off and eloped with Bernard Keim. They journeyed to New York where they rented an a- partment.' Donnabelle, accustomed to singing while doing her housework, was one day overheard by a manager of an amgtugp program. She was given an audtion. She now sings over a nation-wide hook-up as NDonnie Bakern Keim. Lewis Landes is now known as HBenny Landesu and his trumpet. He leads a band, that according to the music crit- ics, is the hottest band in the land. And can they ever play the UBeer Barrel Polkanl Harriette Carpenter became married to Leedy Kellar, who shortly after their marriage was killed in an accident. Harriette set out to seek a job. Having a good voice, she signed up to sing with nBenny Landes'sH band and inciden- tally, it is rumored that Benny is intending to change her name o Glen Wisler has tried out at every big league training camp but failed to make the grade.
