Class Prophecy I live in a boarding house run by JUNE SMITH. Now this house is no ordinary boarding house, no siree! This boarding house is only for the upper crust you might call us. I have a nice comfortable flat on the third floor (attic in other words). I am never lonely, as many of my old classmates live here, too, and we often talk over old times. EILEEN DERR and BARBARA JOHNSTON, the Fuller Brush saleswomen, live on the second floor and that is where I’m visiting now. They are sitting here with their feet in buckets of water and ice packs on their heads, it must have been a hard day. They had their television set on and had invited me in to watch it with them. How surprised I was when the face of RONALD ARENDALL appeared on the screen announcing the blues singer, NORMA KELLEY and her accomanist on the Hammond organ, THOMAS FINFROCK. They were playing the all time, all timer, Chopsticks. Oh, goody, they’re going to have the wrestling matches now. The first match is a bout between “Beautiful (DAVE) BEARD,” “Heman (DALE) HARSHBARGER,” vs. the team of “Naughty (ED) NOLAN” and “Kissing (KAY) KIMMEL.” It should be a good match because they are all big now and weigh over 200 pounds. The engineer, BERLIN KAUFFMAN, is turning the camera on the audience and who do we see but DALE BOYER. He is sitting in the front row with his world famous sextuplets. Aren’t they cute! Here comes Ronald again. He is announcing the nationally famous lady wrest- ler, ANN TREMBLY, better known as “Gorgeous Gussie.” She is giving a speech on the womanly art of self defense. Her husband must have taught her the technique. Well, I really must go to my room now. It is time for supper and I want to take a shower first. Now they tell me that RICHARD MARKLAND, the plumber, got foul- ed up and hooked the gas to the water pipe and the water to the gas. June had to cook supper in the sink. On the way to my room I passed LORENE CLARK’S room. She has a secretarial school; so I don’t suppose she is home yet. After a very good supper, I sat down to read the Pathfinder Magazine. Isn’t it remarkable the number of old acquaintances you can read about in inter-national news. For instance, here is a two page color spread advertising BEA HESSLER’s Gaiety Girls and featuring JANICE SNYDER as Bubbles, the head dancer. They’re almost as famed as Radio City’s Rockettes. ( 16 )
