, AA Hgw Mmilllil E 2 I G E fm' K- WWW - ll Senior Class Prophecy All of you have read about Byrd's second expedition to the South Pole but I'm going to tell you something that was discovered there- I won't tell you how-an account of which has never yet been printed. It was a tiny room in an iceberg in which there was a square, trans- parent slab of ice. This slab of ice could picture individuals and things at any stage which you wished to see them. Of course, being more or less a follower of the Missouri slogan, I was incredulous and contended that seeing was believing. Thus, I resolved to try it out and the first thing I wished to see was the Clatskanie High School in 1950. In the ice I saw a modern school-building, three times the size of the 1930 one, with tennis courts and a golf course laid out in back This answered all my questions, so I decided that I would see what the future of my classmates would be. First I saw Kes Finley, who had been the president of our student body. The ice showed him addressing a group of men on the scientiiic way to grow potatoes without soil. I Next I saw VVilfred Mickelson, skippering a large freight loaded with hairpins for France. Then I wished to see Bernice Erickson in 1934. The ice showed hor in a kitchenette preparing a canned supper for hubby, She had married her Harold Wright. Ina Lane was just taking off from Mitchell flying field on her annual trip to the moon. With her as passengers were Helen Karvonen--a. missionary: Joe Campbell-a salesman for Firestone, and Selma Olsen -a mail order bride. Just before they left Ina received a letter from Hazel Sundberg, who having been disappointed in love for the fifth time decided to spend the remainder of her life with Sundberg and company circus. Adolph Aasen had discovered his life work in giving advice to the love-lorn, writing novels of his own love affairs as a side issue. Julia Cook, at the age of seventy, was teaching her grandchildren the proper Way to lisp. In 1955 the president of the U. S. A., Ellen Edmonds, had ap- pointed Carles Wirkkala Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. One of the cases brought before him was that or Ernest Karasti and Henry Kangas vs. Helene Osborne. Helene was operating a nation-wide chain of matrimonial agencies, and through some mistake had ar- ranged a marriage with the same girl for both. The girl was Eleanor Graham. Next I wished to see Velma Weaver. She was private secretary to G-erald Tichenor, who had become a second Rockefeller by means of transferring the grasshopper's jump to the Lizzie. John Karasti had become a second Napoleon on the athletic field, and had won national fame for Clatskanie by his marvelous coaching. Last, but not least. in the ice I saw Helen Kleger. But what a Helen! In gorgeous clothes, on the screen in a highly dramatic role. She was acclaimed the most accomplished actress since Sarah Bernhardt -Florence Watt
