The f'lass President. Vigils ai Sori'oress! k OME TIME AGO, our honorable class president, Carl Hcrtcl, interested in the culminations of his ardent supporters, visited a well-known sorceress, whose predictions arc indisputable. She became interested in this remarkable class. Her revelations at first seemed astounding but a little thought renders them not only possible but most probable. “Gee, I was scared,” said Carl, as he told his story. 1 here sat this weird looking woman at the extreme end of a long, dark room. She had a sad. pale face and large, dark eyes. She looked as though she might need a man to help her and I almost asked her if I could be of any assistance. When she gave me a long, penetrating look from those deep, soulful eyes, I suddenly remembered my errand and said, ‘Well, how about the class?' She then shifted her eyes to the table and all of a sudden round crystal appeared on the table from out of nowhere. Honest! “Ah,” she murmured, “the gods are in a favorable mood. You are most fortunate. I see a—William Webb, is it? He is directing a night club. He is leading an orchestra while his wife, Ruth, (nee Hyde) is the hostess. Louis Struna, formerly the bartender, is now the head waiter. Frank Barbie and Mike Farrinacci. accordian maestros, along with David Watkins, famous hoofer, arc big drawing cards as featured entertainers at this night club. “But lo! The crystal clears, changes, and I see in quick succession James Matilo and George Gadke. successful radio men. as well as Bernard Goodman and Malcolm MacClelland. the modern Rubinoff and Eddie Cantor of radio land. Genevieve Shasberger seems much in demand as bass drummer. “Now, I sec a lecture hall—a red-headed woman. Virginia Dangler, is going to talk on psychiatry amid the Uralouse tribes in Africa. As a missionary she is unequalcd. Her flaming red hair seems to have a soothing effect on these savages. “Jane Ruic as the ‘Dancing Sweetheart’ and Stanley Gallagher as ‘The Vagabond Lover’ are huge successes on Broadway. “Ruth Tyler and Bob Webster are making their debut in a Shakespearean play. Books of poems by Florence Karnnts and Ed Cecerc arc making quite a stir. “Cedric Blosser owns a huge factory for gum manufacturing. This factory was first started at the suggestion of his wife who decided it would Ik cheaper to manufacture his own gum. “Helen Reid and Ruth Havel jointly own a tea room, called Yc Gossipc Tea Room. “Herbert Hiss is a great financier of Parajjet Street, (not quite as high as Wall Street). 11 is early marriage to Miss Elynor Eirons, so universally predicted a mistake, has proved itself the real thing. Five curly headed youngsters grace this union. “Mr. William Kenerson and Mr. Arnold Frey are employees of the Wilks Private Hotel Detective Agency. I sec them capturing a group of graduates of the June 32 class who arc attempting to put a communist flag on top of the Terminal Tower.
