I 5 . ig N 2 S, Prophecy of the Class of December iozi I found myself sitting in a railway coach. Opposite me sat a tall thin gentleman dressed in what I took to be the very latest styles. In one hand he held a newspaper. This paper, I discovered later, was The Squash- boro .lack-o-lanternu for June 31st, 1935. He was constantly twiddling the fingers of his other hand on the arm of his seat as if he were practicing some piano exercise. I reached over and touched him on the arm. Pardon me, sir, I said, Ubut where is this train headed for? Headed for7ew-well I'll eat this newspaper if it isn't joel Carlson! How are y', anyhow? 'But-Aer--who are you? Don't you know me? , he exclaimed. i'Everett Eritzberg. your old class- mate! i'You! Everett I3rit:berg! I was dumbfounded. He smiled. Thats me. What are you doing now? Right now. he explained. 'Im going to Squashboro. Thats where I live now. Y'know I'm running a show on the Gayety Circuit. just tearing home for a little visit. Got quite a few old East High Girls in my chorus, tool My leading lady is Avis Larson. You remember her. And then theres Laura Albro, Ella Berggren, Irene Berg, Ruth Landis, Eldora johnson, Mar- garet Carlson, Mae Bolin, Inez johnson, Elsie Brunn and Agnes johnson. Some gang of pretty girls, boy! Could this be the same little Everett who sat beside me in chemistry class with such a peaceful look upon his face? Speaking of old classmates! he went on, You remember Tom Gemlo, our hard boiled president? Ha, ha, ha! XVell, he's running a meat market in Squashboro, together with Clarence Bolin. Tom went down to lX4inneapolis last year and married jessie Bowden. Rudolph Goranson is running a grocery store in Minneapolis. He's married to our friend. Miss Henderson. Quint Nelson has got along in the world too. He's president of the Squashboro Barber College. Ruth Halling has the honor of being his wife. Al Grondahl, Ruth Iioster, Marion Cooper, Carlyn Gerhart, and Carrie Crohn are on the Board of Regents. just then the conductor stuck his head in thru the door and yelled. 'Squashboro-o-o! Squashborof' When the train stopped, Mr. Fritzberg, after a few parting words, left me alonei Having nothing else to do, I picked up the newspaper which he had left and decided to look thru it. The hrst thing I saw was the following: HGALVEZ GAINS IN FIGHT FOR PHILLIPINE PRESIDENCY Special, june 30iThe latest reports on the race between Gregorio Vergosi and Nicholas Galvez state that Galve: is slowly cutting Vergosios early lead. Both contestants are confident of winning the fight for the presidency of the Phillipine Republic. Directly below I noticed another interesting bit of news: l29l

Members of the class assembled in the large dining hall with the usual feeling that all class parties bring. Uanother stale party on for to- dayu Capologies to all social committeesll but they quickly changed the ad- jective stale for uuniqueu and snappy . They no sooner stepped onto the 'party grounds' than they were moved to indulge in the great class party sport to the strains of such entrancing music as Stolen Kisses and lVIa. Then. because the Hoor groaned for more air, the program followed. It consisted of Hawaiian music, contributed by Gregorio Versosa and his Fili- pino friends. And such music! lt wafted one to scenes of palm trees and grass skirts. A vocal solo was given by our great alto. Edna Weese. Mildred Silvermann, the noted elocutionist, gave a reading. Then a mysterious but comical 'Bal dance' was given by two unknown persons who later proved to be Avanalle Smith and Blanche Stodola. Ovede Cjorvad and Rudolph Cor- anson each contributed a heartrending solo. Railroad jazz speaks for itself. Then dinner was served at 6:30. More program followed in order to give sufficient digestible time before dancing. 'The Downfall of Brutus' was played by various members of the class with much gusto. A chalk talk by joel Carlson, and reading by Louise Ross. and a piano solo by Everett Eritzberg completed one of the most suc- cessful parties ever given at East. I-low the ,212 Class Made a Successful Banquet The 'ZIM class first took about sixty-Eve future graduates, seasoned with the rapture of coming commencement. and put them in the small lunch room amidst Christmas trees and mistletoe. After adding a few dashes of chicken a la pattie. potatoes a la mashee. peas a la cartee. buns tres buttered a la jelle, coffee. celeree. and pie a la modee, a very congenial mass was obtained. Then the mass was allowed to simmer while spicy toasts were added as: Class History. Rudolph Coransong Class Poem, Ruth Eosterg Class Prophecy. joel Carlsong Toastmaster. Thomas Gemlog Toast to the Cvirls. Thomas Zipoy. toasted very evenly and crispyg Toast to the Boys. Blanche Stodola, roasted to a turng Talk. Mr. Erhmang vocal solo, Edna Weeseg and Presents, Mr. Santa Claus alias William Calush. After this last process. the grand mixture of ingredients was taken to the large dining hall where the customary games and 'wrestling' were added. lVlr. Erhman as Andy, in Min and Andy. proved himself to be an important ingredient in the makeup of the class games. The general recipe is as follows: To a mass of lively and peppy ingredients. e. g. the 'ZIM class. add course by course a delicious. bounteous meal. Then, when the mass is simmering and congenial. add toasts of so spicy a nature as to give the mass pep for the rest of the evening. . izsi

Miss Ross was formerly of Squash- boro. Thruout the paper I found other articles which were equally surprising. I discovered that Gilbert Ringate had defeated Ovede Gjorvad in the race for Mayor of Hohandle. a town near Squashboro. There had been a society formed in Hohandle for the prevention of slang. The officers of the club included many old classmates. The total membership of the organization was four to date.

I also found the announcement of Elwood Taylor's engage- ment to Gladys Snyder. I was indeed astonished to find the following among the church announcements: EAST BAPTIST CHURCH OF SQUASHBORO Services held every Sunday at 7:34 A. M. and 9:17 P. M. REV. BIiNjAMIN DAHLSTROM DFACONS MR. CLIFFORD HowE MR. MICHAEL Mt:CoNvILLE I soon read all there was to read and laid the paper asicle. I looked about me, and noticed in the seat opposite me another newspaper. Reaching across, I picked it up and found it to be The Hohandle Daily Bugle . In the sport- ing page, I found a small amount of material: Extra, june 32nd-Harry Valentine, worlds champion heavyweight wrestler, has agreed to meet Mike Herbert of Chicago on Feb. 30 at Minneapolis. And also: The quint which will take the floor against Squashboro next Saturday will be the strongest aggregation that the women of Hohandle have put forth. according to Miss Avanelle Smith, who is coaching the squad.

I intend to eat more lobster in the future, if my dreams will always be as pleasant as this. JOEL S. CARLSON. I30l
