CLASS PIROIPHIECY Well, I have finished my supper' and settled myself in an easy chair, in 'front of the fireplace to read the latest news in The Know-it-All. I noticed the following interesting items: Looking into Uncle Sam's forces, defense plants, etc., I see your following classmates. ' The following Navy Nurses were decorated for their bravery, Gloria Lorenzini, Wanda Lee Porter, and Dolores Ward. Margaret Bishop set the record for ferrying bombers. Lieutenant Iohn Boros, of the United States Army today praised Archibald Gray and Obadiah Nance, camp cooks, on their food preparations. Lester Myers and Iack Crews are keeping the spuds rolling at Camp Roberts. Bill Le Pere, flyer in the distinguished Eagle Squadron, has downed forty lap planes, setting a new record. His buddies, Perry Ward and I. V. Lowe, are trying to beat this record. The Navy refers to Elmer Cassai and Red Robinson as their two man invasion. Buddy Church is nicknamed Fearless Church. Looking into a busy defense plant I see Catherine Contri, who is called Rosie the Riveter, who is being assisted by Freda Daffron. The blue print expert of the plant is Mr. Krisfaluzy. Iohn Hartsock plays a big par't in the designing of these bombers. Major Phillips, of the United States Army, has stated, quote, This plant is doing superb work and I think the President, Mr. Pete Re, should be complimented. Over in Egypt I see Wese Wisely climbing from the cockpit of his plane, after downing five German planes. Now to look in on the life at Washington, D. C. The President compli- mented the following stenographers on their fine work: Verlie May Cawvey, Blanche Crews, Rosemarie Kristan, Arlene Martin, and Wanda Iune Russell.
