1947 SENIOR CLASS PROPHFCY By JEAN Bunn HERE IS an old saying that runs thus If on the first day of May a young lady will arise early and go to an old abandoned well she will behold rn lt her future Thinking this would be quite a lark I determined to see whether or not there was any truth rn the theory But, to be quite frank, my main obrect was to satisfy that peculiar characteristic attached to everything Qexcept members of the masculine sexj curiosity Accordingly, 5 00 a m , May 1st found me trudging my way through a freshly plowed field which was none the better for the heavy dew that had fallen the night before By the time I reached the well I was thoroughly disgusted with rt, myself and the world Jean Band 1n general Then, to add to my grievances, there was a heavy covering to be removed, which after much strenuous exercise I suc ceeded rn doing I then turned my attention to the water itself At first I could discern nothing but the blue of the sky above, till splash' Somethmg hit the water and the waves closed over it At first I thought rt to be a rock or something I had pushed rn but no it ' was coming to the surface and good gracious where had all those people come from? Look' Look' There she comes, cried someone excitedly She? Who I asked rn bewrlderment Why the famous high diver, Margaret Grrflin of course My mind was clear now So this was the famous Florida resort, and once more I was to behold the countenance of a former schoolmate As she emerged from the water the crowd parted like the Red Sea, that its 1d0I might pass through What yuh say there, Baird? In spite of her sudden rise to publicity she was stil' the sarre Margaret I started to explam but she cut me short by suggesting that the crowd wouldn t appreciate our conversation and if Id wart rn the hotel lobby till she changed her costume for one more suitable to the occasion We d have tea and talk over old times The hotel was a luxurlous place and as I had noticed several persons of promr nence passing rn and out I decided to look over the registry to see rf any of my old classmates were among 1he regl tered On my Way to the desk I noticed some young men grouped about what looked to me like a flower stall By approaching closer however I found it to be a telephone booth and its operator Wilma Murphy Her companions were Jrmm, Watts Tommy Bell Jimmy Pfister and Leroy Crowe What s it all about? I demanded As soon as our greetmgs had been exchanged Tommy explained that the four of them had formed a quartet Jimmy Vlfatts it seemed was the individual star or the quartet, and as his services were so much rn demand elsewhere he commanded three fourths of the money taken rn By this time Margaret had arrived on the scene and as she was hungry as usual we departed rn search of the tea room Here we found a table away from the school days I offered her my warmest congratulations for her success but she only grinned modestlx and replied Oh, you haven t heard anything yet Helen Best s got a French duke all roped in and the happy event comes off next month and Sharon Chapman has set a world record for dancing Went two weeks without stopping Strrman Am brose and his wife the former Julia Smith are in town He lS manager of the A P store here Anne Hart Robey is singing with the Metropolitan Opera Betty Graham rs here attending the races with her husband who is riding horses for Robert Temple ho has made millions from his race horses But what is the news of Owensboro? Henry Anderson IS now prmcrpal of D C H S and Anna Rose Magan is his secretary Melba Ambrose teaches geometry Harry Brumley teaches agriculture and Jim Ambrose took Miss Fr nch s place when she retired L K Burcham is work ing in his father ln law s night club up on Highway 60 Dorothy Belle Houston is cigarette gul at the same night club Dan Chfton Wrlhovte is captain of the police force James Jones IS a radio announcer over station WMW which is opened and operated by J W Mitchell who married Margie Wrggrnton M G Barnett owns a large garage on Fourth street Roy Murdock rs working for P A Kirk who is the father of hrs wife, the former Pauline Kirk Mr and Mrs Kelly Grst the former Margie Horn have charge of the Public Library Clara Zelma Daniel rs manager of the S S Kresge 5 and 10 cent store But Shannon Cowgell what became of her? I asked Margaret s smile faded and over her face there crept such a look of sorrow that I thought perhaps I d sard the wrong thing She turned and without speaking silently pointed to a nearby table where two grrls were lunchmg Instantly I recog nrzed them as Shannon 'ind Carolyn Gordon but for once Shannon was srlent I was astounded, for this was the first time I d ex er known such a thing- to happen Vlhat s wrong? I wanted tr, know Dumb ' my companion responded Dumb as a door knob I always knew if she d1dn't let up some day she d los her voice and surely enough she did Carolyn s act ing as her private secretary and martvred companion ' She looked the Dart, too My attention was attracted to the main entrance of the room for who should be standing there but Charlie Carter and he was clad in the uniform of a naval .
