Class Prophecy Returning on September 28, l9SE5, from the South, where I had been spending my vacation, I decided to spend a short time in Philadelphia. As I was entering a large hotel, whom should I meet but Robert Longenecker. He had just ar- rived by a plane of which he was the pilot, Louise Morton was a hostess on the same plane. Being unable to locate the informatton office, I approached a tall gentleman who was comfort- ably seated, reading a newspaper, As he looked up from his paper in answer to my question, I dis- covered he was Robert Rowe, Pennsylvania State Secretary of Agriculture. With him was his private fecretary, Betty Nace He directed me to the information office, where Anna Miller waited on me. Ruth Rensel, a typist, and Janet Hess, a secretary, were also working in the office, The hotel was so full that I had to use the apartment of Miriam Kauffman, an aviatrix, who was on an excursion and would not return for several days. Before going to my room, I ate lunch. The dining room was very full, and I spied a seat at a table with several ladies. These ladies were Dorothy Dick, an English teacherg Marian White and Betty Goss, physical eclucotifvn leachersg Betty Arndt and Helen Burkholder, commercial instruc- torsg and Anna Wetzel, an art teacher. They were attending a teachers' convention in Philadelphia When lunch was over, as I entered the ele- vator, I heard someone say, Hello, there. It was Lois lvloore, a photographer on the staff Oi the Philadelphia Inquirer She said she had pho- tographed Robert Sload, who had been recently made Marine Corps Commandant, She showed me Cl picture of Ruth Brubaker, who had just been married. Shortly after I had reached my room, I was curious to find the source of a continuous ham- mering sound. Looking out the window, I saw Ray Shuman and Carl Siegrlst were building a house. Later I found out that the home was for Marie Grader. That afternoon I met Richard Libhart in the hotel. I-le satd James Mayer, Mervin Hess and he were students of engineering, He also had re- ceived letters from Guy Koser in the Navy, Laddie Shope in the Marines, and Lewis Armold in the Army Air Force, Leaving them, I rushed to get on the elevator but slipped on the newly-waxed floors. As I fell, someone came to assist me, It was Mary Singer, a nurse in a Philadelphia hospital, Mary told me that Irene Anderson was o technician in the lab- oratory of the same hospital. Having ruined my stocking in my fall, I had to buy a new pair On my way to Wanamaker's I met Leona Gelstweite and Betty Wilkinson, who were partners in a beauty shop. When I reached the hosiery department, Ruth Longenecker, supervisor of that department, sold nee my hose. As a special favor because we had been classmates, she sold me a pair of nylons. In the store I met Harold Aungst. He and his family were spending the day in Philadelphia. He was farming in Lancaster County. He told me that Bill Endslow was farming near by. When I passed the main office I saw Harold Kolp, a salesman, talking to Ldna May, the chief clerk in the office. Finally I found my way out of the store and secured a taxi immediately, Because of motor trouble we had to stop at a garage, Here Gene Swords was the mechanic We needed a part he did not have, so he sent us to Stanley Ginder's machine shop to obtain the part. Soon the car was fixed, and we went on our way Vlfhen we stopped at the railroad station, Doris Leedorn and Irene Herr entered the taxi Doris was working in a newspaper office, and Irene was a commercial artist. They said that on the train they had met Glenn Hoffman, a bacteriologist. Doris told us that Kathryn Gutshall, Marguerite Brock, and Frances Rober were working in the newspaper office It was dinner time when I returned to the hotel, I found a seat in the dining room beside Laura Walters. She was a designer in New York but had an appointment to meet Harry Leedom, a Holly- wood designer. Feeling rather tired when I reached my room, I turned on the radio for recreation. I heard the announcer for Station WPI say that Kathryn Martin was going to sing, Later at another sta- tion I heard it announced that Charles Waser, a iockey, had received the blue ribbon for hrs horse, which had won first place in a race The next morning I left for home. As I reached the railroad station, I saw Evelyn Brandt working In the ticket office, Robert Greider was buying a ticket to go home to his farm in Lancaster County. At last I reached my destination. After a few days at home I went back to my work at the Lancaster General Hospital, where I om a regos- tered nurse. ETHEL WOLGEMUTH
