PROPHECY FOR TWENTY YEARS FROM NOW Rattle, bang, crash, boom, pop, and sput Hey! What's that? Oh, that’s just Berdie, Harry, Versie, and A1 starting on their trip across the states in one of these new-fangled rockets everybody’s talking about Our first stop is the Petrified Forest where we see our old steadies, Flossie Stocrmcr and Maurice Williams, still petrified about getting married. Berdie is yelling about not getting to see Phil Seeber at Pacific University so I suppose we will also have to stop there. Our next stop is Ray Kny’s cattle ranch in Texas. That reminds us that we would enjoy a nice juicy steak so we are hoping that those two smoothies. Bob Clower and Bob Simpson, (Simp to you), haven’t eaten him out of house and home. Good old Los Angeles, here we come! We have heard that Yvonne Davis, Carol Walton, Delpha Owen, and Betty Hatcher have just returned from a missionary trip to Africa, where they were trying to show how to prepare meals consisting of vitamin pills and food capsules, such as they are now using in the United States. At Tucson we see Ramona Cunningham and her famous beauty salon, noted for its up-sweeps that stay up and its braids that stay braided. No! That can’t be John Devereux cleaning out the cuspidors in front of that saloon. Oh, I see! He owns that one and the rest of them in town. (Saloons, that is!) Well, if it isn’t good old Hoboken, Kalamazoo County, Arkansas. That’s the county jail and what’s that? Why its Lois Hansen, the well known banker. What’s she doing in jail? Oh, an embezzler, eh? Grab him! Don’t let Harry Slack, that loop-hole lawyer try to get her out or she’ll be there forever. Stop this thing quick! Call a doctor! Any doctor! A1 is sick and we--oh, you say one is coming? Who is he? Dr. Sage? Not Bill Sage, our old friend from Co-quille High? Well, call another one quick! A1 isn’t a horse or Versie’s dog, Fifi. Hey, look at that beautiful yacht! I wonder who owns it? You say Joyce Munger and Everett Steward own it and are raising little stewards to beat the labor shortage. As we fly over hill and dale what should we see but an enormous moving van. It seems that our old friend Bonita Miller, who is now first lady of the land, and her three aides, Patty Geaney, Mary Anne Walker, and Laura Emily Ruble, have decided to take a vacation and go to Alaska. They can’t tear themselves away from the Capitol so they arc taking it with them. There’s somebody hitch-hiking but we don’t have room so we can’t take him on. Who is it? Oh, that’s Professor Hugh McKinney, the last word in vocabulary. His glib tongue always enables him to get the last word in. There goes Bartley Carrillo and Richard George who began by hauling kids around in high school nnd who now own a trans-continental railroad. Do you see that beautiful mansion rising in the sky over there? That’s the home of Bob Taylor. He has been living in the clouds ever since he was elected basket ball player of the year. Naturally on this tour we have to stop in Chicago and CLASS OF 1947 see Queenie, Waunda Kintzley, and the Chicago professional football team. Their coach is, of all people. Jack Buckles. It seems that he was coach at Vassar until the women proved too much for him. Oh yes. while we were here in Chicago, we got a letter from Jack Steele, who now owns a copper mine and tin factory. Speaking of sports, last night in Buffalo we had the good misfortune of attending a wrestling match where two of the puga-lists that took part in this contest of brawn and treachery were The Gray Mask,” alias Marthellen Toney and The Yellow Stripe, alias Anna Lee Mannelin. Also who should we see but Ken Neeley, who was acting in the official position as manager and who was also referee. As we fly over Wisconsin we sight a huge ranch that is owned by Walt Scolari and also, might we add, he is the first rancher to produce dehydrated milk straight from, the cow. As we enter the Great Lakes Naval Training Base to hear the R. O. T. C. Band we see Joyce Benham and her fiancee, Glenn Knight. I suppose we should say Commander Knight, U. S. N. Stopping in the Black Hills we visit the famous gold mine which we had heard about in high school from our friend. Bob Schrag. Say! is that Bob running that conveyor belt? Why yes, it is, and since he has invited us home for dinner, we see, upon our arrival, a dainty little wife. Marion Burcher. On our way once more, we stop at the iron ore docks where we find our old classmates, Pat Gibbs, Marian Gregory and Mary Loss, waiting for their ships to come in. The dispersing agent tells us that a ship is due in a few minutes. Deciding to wait for it, we join the throng. We are surprised, as the ship docks, for who do we see, but Joe Bosco, Jack Giffen, and Bud Hickam. There must be a connection between those three girls and these three ship hands. Milwaukee looms ahead of us and being aware of a beer brewery which is located here we feel a strong desire to look over the brewery, — er. I mean-town!! We learn from citizens of the city that Clifton Morgan and Maxine Willson are co-owners of the Sltaz Beer Co. A1 is urging us to stop for a swim in the Great Salt Lake and it doesn’t sound bad to us. Upon landing we are met by Shirley Morgan who directs us to the swimming beach. After our swim we are handed towels by Virginia Pullen who is running the fresh water showers. Hurrying to finish our journey we reach Seattle, hoping to see the much-talked-about arrival of the flying submurine which was invented by Alan Chaney and B ll Train. Time is getting short and although the submarine hasn’t arrived yet we must hurry on to Hollywood, the last lap of our journey. Relaxing at Earl Carroll’s Theatre Restaurant, we enjoy a fine dinner. Now the floor show is beginning. No! It can’t be! My gosh! it is!! Helen Mass, Carmen Repass, and Dorothy Jeffery are the lead girls in the chorus line. Oh yes, along the line somewhere, we can’t remember where, we saw John Rankin, the flea doctor, trying to discover a sure cure for indigestion. Well, twenty years! Our old classmates have turned up in all places and in all professions, but still the same old gang. We recognized them, everyone!
