CLASS PROPHECY Only the stars know what's in store for us so let us look to the stars to see what the future holds for the class of '46. A reunion is being held at Dodson and Brown Power's Models Incorporated. Both have a great variety of models and who :io we see among them but outstanding blonde Nadine Towner and petite, dark-haired Stella Allen, slightly settled but still -as ravishing as ever. Patty Hyatt, their leading fashion expert, adds gaiety to the atmosphere by singing as she works. She is lucky because Ed Staley has proved such a good house- keeper who ably keeps the house and children aside from his hobby of making airplane models. Who is that poor bedraggled scrub woman in the corner? Lo and behold! It is none other than our own Bonnie Stone- still single hut hopeful. What's the matter with our. star stenographer, Emogene Powell? She can't seem to find a comfortable chair, maybe it's because she misses her boss's knee. Here comes Shirley Hoskinson, owner of Hoskie's Hacienda decked out in the latest riding apparel, and who do we see with her but her chief cowhand, Dallas Chalfant. He is her best asset because he draws the trade of all the wealthy damsels of the East. Is this a professor we see? Why certainly! The great pro- fessor of criminology, Wallace Almack, handsome and dis- tinguished with his glossy Van Dyke. Here's our one time ace hero of the air, Wes Durkee, who has now settled down and established Durkee's delivery of Dude's Duds He sends ship- ments to all the main Dude Ranches and his best customer is Hoskie's Hacienda. Wee Bonnie Bailey, opera star of the Metropolitan, has just returned from a tour of all the big cities. She has graciously consented to appear at the High School some time in the near future. uglhe reminds you of Madame Schumann Heink, only h0t I0 . For the best honey in town contact Eldon Powers. He learned the trade secrets from his father and is now a pros- perous business msn. Georgiann Boyce is still waiting for Bob Sly while she acts as Dean of Girls at the Academy of Alien Architecture. Georgiann is well liked by her girls due to the fact that she hxadsprevious experience as Girls' League President at C. C. We are honored with the presence of the historian of the day. known to us as Laurence Stratton. He teaches others, by means of the cinema, what he has learned about science, math, and life in general. Onita McKinnon is running a nursery for homeless cats. l've never seen anyone so devoted to her charges. Of tommies she has 16, of pussy cats she has 20 and each puss has at least 4 kittens and she can't bear to part with any of them. The famous ballet dancer, Suzanne Michel, is here to see our fashion expert about costumes for her next performance. She is accompanied by her problem husband, Ward Sybouts. zvho, in his moments of gloom drowns his sorrow at the soda ountain. Leading the list of the best dressed women of the nation is Joanne Loper, who has made music pay by the lyrics for the popular musical Loper's Lament directed by Ramona Ramsey. Ramona climbed the ladder of success the hard way. backwards, and is now the greatest director in the City of Stars . Herb Henry and Mariel Westberg are happily married. They have just returned from a world wide tour. Herb is a second Lawrence Tibbet, singing Don't Fence Me In. ac- companied by Mariel on her magic violin. This is Herb's theme song and Mariel sadly says, He doesn't mean maybe. Does John Goodwin always take his lawbooks with him whereever he goes? Seems he is trying to get his name at the head of the list of Muldune, McGuire, McGaffery, Mergatroid, dz Goodwin, Lawyers Incorporated. Elizabeth Butler and Paul Tennant, two political rivals have just entered. It appears that they are running strong competition against each other for president of the Political Progress of Prineville. Here comes Joe Quant, so-called rich man. He married a rich widow so he wouldn't have to work-not so dumb-huh? Meet our most prominent society belle, Mrs. Emery Tomlinson, last known to us as Allyn Mae Grimes. She is now residing on Ochoco Heights-and is an outstanding leader in all Prineville Social Activities. You are about to have the privilege of viewing the William Shakespeare of the 20th. Century, Ed Blann, famous for his ever popular Hoiman and Moitle. Who would have dreamed that our gentle classmate could have gone so far so fast. Have you been to your dentist lately? If not, we highly recommend Dr. Welles Adkisson who is well renowned for her painless tooth extractions. Little is known about her private life but she seems quite content with it. Entering is Bob Johnston, proprietor of Bob's Brewery and Ballroom. If you are in need of refreshment or entertain- ment this is the place to go. Best in the West. says Bob. Now enters Jim Howard. rancher and family man, who has outgrown his youthful timidity and when he ran for. State legislature he gave the longest and loudwt speech in the history of Crook County. What have we here? Why, Bob Lau is a traveling salesman, selling ladies lingerie and it looks as though the former Donna Meadows is his prey. Donna is a housewife and home- maker. She is kept busy trying to raise her family according to the modern ways. Lol and Behold! Here comes Pistol Packin' Mama alias Bonnie Post, who has been elected sheriff of Crook County by popular vote. Who could be better qualified for this po- sition than one who comes from a long line of pioneers that were born and raised in this vicinity. We now see Kenneth Prather. who has just returned from serving a term due to his efforts to speed up nature and in- herit his uncle's fortune. We would like to introduce Kay Blake. a talented enter- tainer from the Koo Koo Klub in New York City. She has sent so many people out of this world with her playing it is no wonder she has been placed there by popular demand. In our midst we find a great artist. Well known in the world of sports is this man. You may have heard of women going mad over Frankie, but have you ever heard of men going mad over ducks? Such is the case of our Bill Hartman and his ducks. You can always tell a teacher a mile off and speaking of teachers-here comes Mary Graham, our old maid school mom, who has a life long contract at Lone Pine. She manages to look quite chic in spite of her age and hard labor. The Prineville folks still get their local news from the Central Oregonian which is now edited by Orval McDowell, who is also mayor of Powell Butte and is very respected in the community. Since he has been editor, a new column has been added to the paper which is written by Mildred Geer, who gives advice to the lovelorn. She is well qualified for this position by her bitter experience in previous years. If her advice doesn't work and you're still lonely. iust step into Street's Lonely Hearts Club. This Matrimonial Agency, run by Eileen Street, is famous the country over. Guarantees prompt service for any and all broken hearts. Carrying out his ambition of former years we find Don Lewis, truck driver, delivering supplies from his truck farm to Prineville and vicinity. During the last 20 years Prine- ville has became so crowded that there is insufficient parking space so Don Cardin has established a parking lot on View Point, charging each car 25c per hour. Open day and night Knight especiallyl. The main part of his income comes from dimming his bright lighting system. We find Doris Gordon as financial adviser and bookkeeper for Gene Smith, wealthy gold miner. Perhaps she uses her albility go handle her figure rather than her figures to hold t is :io . Margaret White hasn't settled down yet. She has become a world-wide explorer in the hopes that some day she might find the perfect specimen of you know what. Tanned and weather-beaten. she returns from her quest. She hasn't found him yet but she's still hopeful. Well, forever morel Look at this. It's none other than Paul Thalhofer, sheep herder who writes hill billy songs in his spare time and accompanies himself on a jews harp. He herds sheep between Mitchell and Prineville and on the way he stops off to visit Don Peeler, the hermit who dwells on the peak of .Ochoco Mountain. He hates or loves all man- kind, depending upon what he has had for breakfast. Don't let anyone be misled by believing that what the stars say won't come true. They promise it to be the same caliber of accuracy as all previous class prophecies.

We were robbed, and just by one point, too. Hubba, Hubba, Hubba those Cowboys! We reversed the scores. Gee, it made us feel good. Just think! We beat Hood River! It was a great success, according to the finan- cial status so they could go to Hood River. Herb Henry reigns the rest of the year. Some got Valentines, lucky kids. Swindle Dindler's won the contest. Had to give the other corporation a party. Somebody turned out the lights as usual. It's getting to be a tradition. A lot more went to visit the teachers about too many numbers in the wrong places. Smile pretty or are you supposed to say cheese ? We got the Sportsmanship Trophy, anyway. Now the fellas know what happens in their meetings. Not bad! Glad that's over! A lot of hidden talent discovered. Is that music I hear? The audience loved it. Wolves and Wolfesses cut a little rug. Girls were dressed up for a change. We had the banquet at the hotel this year. The food was awful good. They really looked nice in their caps and gowns. Last chance for Seniors to show their versatile talent. Grand finale. A few tears were shed.
