CLASS PROPHECY Only three minutes more. Then all ofa suddenl Clangl Clangl Came the loud three o'clock school bell. Slaml Bangl Books falling from desks. Restless children were running from every direction, yelling and rejoic- ing at the top of their voice. School dismissed until Monday. What a relief! My head ached, but I was happy with the work that I had choosen as my Iife's work. A teacher in a small country school. Then when I was alone, I sat down at my desk and looked across the empty school room. Then Ibegan to think about my old room at Cooleemee School and the Class of '53. As I sat there I could see each of my fellow stu- dents at the work that they had choosen as their career. First of all I saw Kenneth Sales, who is the owner of the world's largest dance club, The-Lose-Your-Blues Club. He told me that Sammy Cope was his bandleader and that Arnold Spry was star vocalist. Arnold Spry finally got Peggie Grubb to say yes , and now they are happily married. I then saw Charles Wofford, who is now a star on Dick Groat's all-star team. Doyle Spry is also on the team, he plays guard. Doyle and Charles were star athletes at Cooleemee. Next there was Patsy Shaver and Peggy Spry. They always liked basketball and are now coaches. Patsy at Cleveland and Peggy at Mocksville. Delores Jordan and Betty Brooks, who both married during school, are now the mothers of twin boys. Dorothy Declmon, Letty Wagner, ancl Betty Jean Hamilton are now private secretaries at the Erwin Mills. Daniel Miller and Edward Carter are now partners in the world's largest trucking firm, CARTER AND MILLER, INC. Clara Hepler ancl Esther Lagle are now the shorthand champions of the world--- l40 words a minute. I then saw a hospital, so I guessed that some of my schoolmates were working in there. As quick as I walked in the door, I heard over the loud speaker, Dr. Childers and Dr. Barber needed in the emergency room. I iust held my breath becausel felt thatl knew Dr. Childers and Dr. Barber. I did know them---Ben Childers and James Barber. If James Barber was a doctor it was because of the pretty nurses. They turned out to be Nancy Veach and Ruby Shoaf. I still kept wondering what had happened to Jessie Whitaker and Nancy Hoffman. Then I saw them, trying to get the boys to say yes. I ask about Betty Long and they told me that she had finally married a sailor. They also told me that Larry McCullough and William Livengood were done in the game of love and were now stock car drivers. Don Nichols was their mechanic. Then I saw a sign, The Man Who Broke the Record of Sleep- ing the Most. It tumed out to be Jack SIeepy Seamon. His manager was Dock Spillman. Roscoe Jones is now the owner ofa chain of grocer stores. Then I awoke! I ran quickly next door to tell Janet Bowers what had happened. Janet is also a school teacher. She and lenioyed the remainder of the aftemoon recalling our yes- ter years.
