V L . 26 EPHANIAN 1928 Senior Prophecy lt was on a bright August afternoon in 1945 when I went aboard my ship for an extended trip to Europe. I intended studying the conditions of several of the lesser countries and then writing a book on my discoveries. On deck 'I spent much time in reading other books of travel. Many days were spent in this way-reading and studying in preparation for the book l was to write. One day my reading was interrupted by the cries of Hlland ! Land l 7' I knew that we should be far from land and soon discovered that we were out of our way and were evidently lost. Upon inquiring l was informed that somehow we had lost our course and were in a very dangerous position in very shallow water. Much fuel had been used and the supply was running low. lf only we would receive help! To our very great amazement we sighted a ship coming toward us. As it came closer we could easily see that it was a pirate ship. Vile signaled to them that we needed help. They seemed very friendly to us and said they would take some of the passengers on board. Vwfe boarded the pirate ship not knowing where they were taking us nor what would happen to us. One day to my very great surprise whom should l meet on board but Mr. Higgins, one of my former principals, who informed me that he was captain. ln our conversation he gave me some information as to what the Class of '28 were now doing. This is what he said: Ruth Geiter is now filling a contract with VVilliam Fox. And, by the way, she was recently chosen Miss America at Atlantic City, Robert Hunston is still delivering ice in East Palestine. Mrs. Hunston Cnee Betty Loperl keeps the ice accounts for him. We very often hear Bob's clear voice saying, Any ice today, lady-lt's nice today, lady?

Ru- mors say that Tony has quite a large bank account. Sarah Johnston and Jane Hall have rented an apartment in Detroit and are keep- ing house for themselves. Both are private secretaries to wealthy individuals. They might be spoken of as old maids. Joe Golicic is Joke Editor of Life-in other Words he is Editor-in-Chief. John McMahon is now starring as Uncle Tom in the latest film of Uncle Tom's Cabin. Dema Shasteen has devoted her life to caring for the children in one of the largest orphans' homes in the U. S.
