CLASS PROPHECY-1942 Last night I had a dream about sev- eral of the'ninth graders. In my dream it was 1957, just fifteen years,from now. I had been listening to the radio and look- ing at the daily paper. The program changed and I heard a familiar voice speaking. I listened. It was the an- nouncer. Yes, I was right, it was Beverly Smyers, one of the first woman announc- ers. Can you imagine my surprise when she announced that Bill Walker, the comedian, was on the air? Well, of course, I listened because I could remem- ber Bill when we went to junior high! With him, as guest, was Joan Johnston, that dignified old maid. Poor Joan! She just couldn't make up her mind. On the next program, Information Please , Forrest Brubaker and Barbara Smith were guests. The things those two didn't know weren't worth knowing. Then, thinking I'd see what was hap- pening in the world, I picked up my paper again. The first thing I noticed was that the President and several politicians were planning a short vacation together. Among the politicians was Dick Cochran. He and the President, Ed Brown, were, as I remember, friends in school. What's this I see? Policeman Mike Callahan, while out on the beat, caught that well- known pickpocket, Francis Clark. Francis got his training in ninth grade. He made quite an occupation of it, too. Ah! Now here's something. That woman FBI agent Tommy Make-You- Talk Love is on another case. Well now, I wonder who it could be this time. Of course, I'm not surprised to note that Ken Johnston is an orator now and will speak here next month. He always was quite a talker. Hmm! The world famous Dr. Craig Patterson, assisted by nurse Helen Gard- iner, made a remarkable operation on debutante Donna Pennington and saved the life of that much-sought-after miss. Well, well! I expected it would hap- pen, and it has. John Hrin has become wrestling champion of the world. Speaking of wrestling, I see here that Lila Lee Hiner, that noted woman wrest- ler, will wrestle tonight at the Garden ! I must remember to see that. She and I were great chums at school. ' Now, on the social page, I see that that most eligible bachelor, Sheldon Rideout, has gone back to his country retreat. Good hiding, Sheldon! It seems that the winner of the beauty contest that was held yesterday was an- nounced by one of the judges, Mr. Bill Shenkle. The winner, of course, was Betty Braund. What else would you ex- pect? t The columnist, Ned Foster, hints that there's somethin' cookin' or why would the town's number one play boy, Kirby Hook, be seen with the same girl so often lately-and in the more secluded places? Maybe he's settling down some. Oh! This is news! Miss Ellen Mont- gomery was discovered gazing at the stars with Bill Allen one foggy night long ago. Did I hear someone mention Rever- end Eugene Miller in connection with their names?

It would seem that that perfect couple, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Korb, have just return- ed from a trip abroad. You probably re- member her as Anna Mabel Kuhn. I see 'Betty Wilson has quite an ad in the paper. Her beauty salon seems to be the most popular retreat for the ladies. Well, look at that ad! Suzanne Van Arsdale, Undertaker. fMaybe it's a good thing this is a dream.J Now wouldn't you just expect to see Vernon Smith in the dairy business? Why he even looks like a dairy man. Attention all art lovers! The work- ings of artists Bernard Murray and Robert Peoples will be on exhibit three weeks from today and for the four follow- ing weeks. Oh good! The daily short story by Shirley Johnston fformerly of 9-11 and the funnies. Well, if there isn't a comic strip here by Dave Emmett. What would a paper be without funnies, even in 1957? And now for the poetry. Here in The Poet's Corner among the works of others I see a few of those by Florence Burfield. Well imagine! Bill Reber in the movies! And he seems to be playing a part very similar to the part Jack Benny played years ago in Charlie's Aunt . That seems to be all-no, here's some- thing. Miss Jane Shaffer has announced her engagement to someone. I can't pro- nounce his name. I don't know him per- sonally but they say he's rather old and a sort of millionaire. P. S. He has failing health. Well, some folks say that's the way to pick them, I suppose it's all right THE CLASS WILL We, the members of the 1942 graduat- ing class of DuBois Junior High, School in the presence of witnesses, do hereby publish our last will and testament. The troubles and difficulties of the 9-4 class are left to the future members of the next 9-4 class. Heaven help them! Cliif Griggs, Andy Prontock, and Bob Wray will their basketball showers to Alan Bakas, George Coder, and' Bud Landis. Rusty Leech wills his report card marks to the future Excellent students of next year. 1 Kasy Baldauf leaves her rug cuttin' technique to Joan Shankle. The fellows of the ninth grade want to will their changed and changing voices to fellows of the eighth. The poor guys have had some time with them. To Chicken Kuzniar goes Chummy Marshall's A-1 mat grapplin record. Ruthie Riss is due for Sally Hubbs' smooth swimming strokes. We really don't want to, but we're go- ing to will the future 'sophomore boys to the eighth grade girls. The front seats in assembly are willed to the little shrimps in junior high. To Harry Hiner goes Bill Benson's as- sortment of girls. Basketball skill seems to run in the Anderson family. Roberta inherits her brother Ernie's dribblets. Tootsie Shobert leaves his an-P nouncer's post to Jackie Schoch. I .Tv ' Joan Johnston wills her new two- seater, three-wheeled bicycle to all the keeds who want to save rubber. if you can..
