TIME M lCniNE RicAoAd cu mltmcfe ' 39 I ' m deep within the bowels of earth, in ' fessor Snooper ' s lab. He built it underground like this so neighbors couldn ' t crab. (You see, before he moved down here, when he was on the ground, His noisy, smelly ' speriments played hob for miles around.; He says his latest gadget — the one I came to see — Will show him all that ' s going on in 1953. My boy, he says, and pulls a switch, the mysteries of time Are hidden in the fact that x must equal 12 z prime! Motors hum to whining life: tubes grow blue and green; And hazy figures start to form upon a glowing screen. A man ' s alighting from a car before a large hotel; With all that racy foreign job, he must be quite a swell. His face is turning toward the screen as he starts to go in. It can ' t — but yes, I ' m sure it is; it ' s Beachman, with his grin! The doorman ' s moving from his post; I now can see a sign: Fourteenth reunion being held by English — 39- (Professor Snooper twirls a knob and shifts the scene inside.) McCarthy in the foreground in a general ' s uniform Is engaging R. J. Butters in a conversation warm: Senator, I ' ll give you any odds that you desire That Hinds won ' t lose his boxing crown, but will instead retire. There ' s coaches Reale and Hickey — I ' ll find out what they say. The first two hail the latter pair and quickly walk their way. Now who should come into my view but Auskelis and Green. I do admire your splendid work upon the silver screen. But if you ' d ever dealt in bonds you ' d find that work a bore. Just think, we have a star-to-be upon the tardy door! Look at those two over there, cries Green with some surprise, It ' s Butler and Sadowski: they both got a Nobel prize. Auskelis glances, diamond tie pin sparkling in the light, And there ' s Buchanan, King of Concerts, not far to the right, And Gouse and Smith and Downey, heads all in a bunch. Let ' s walk that way and see if we can get a market hunch. The star and tycoon stroll away but right upon their heels, Are Fillis (J.) and Kenefick — Nick Carters or O ' Neills — I know it ' s run for forty weeks, but I don ' t like your play. No more compliments, Kenefick, or you ' ll join Old Nick to stay. You ' re Shakespeare ' s greatest critic, yes; but don ' t begin on me. There ' s Hy Bloom — Hi, Bloom! — Oh boy, I really am punny. (The last from Donald Kenefick: you see, he ' ll never learn. ) Let ' s twit him on his latest book — I love

They scamper off to seize their prey, disclosing to my gaze k Bicderman and Rosenfield beside the hors d ' oeuvre trays. Your system of psychology, says Biederman to R, Enabled me to triple sales of my new super-car. His glittering eye upon the food comes Austin, Shaknov, too. First find the root, then integrate and — Boy! what luscious goo! You are the head of M. I. T. and know your figures fine, But as the Dean of Princeton U. — these pickles are divine! Wait. Here comes Raiklen of G. E. ; he ' ll tell you that I ' m right. He found this integral when he commercialized cold light. Let ' s not talk shop right now, says Mat, and gestures to the right. There ' s Tommy Donovan and clarinet to treat us here tonight. He was so quiet back in school, says Shaknov musingly, And yet I did know then he was a genius yet to be. Professor Snooper turns a knob and shifts the scene again To show a man who ' s tailored like a Bond Street manikin. It ' s Claflin gazing gaily from behind a microphone. This is a famous gathering, comes the rich fem-thrilling tone. The great from every walk of life are grouped here on this day. Theres Admiral Newman with his wife: boy! I ' ll say she ' s O-Kay! Far to my left, beside the food, the mighty market men: Clancy, Campbell, Harris, Burns, and wily Anderson. Contrada, smiling governor, converses with Ahern, Whose absence from the House floor has forced them to adjourn. Oh, General Golden ' s passing by with quite a bonny lassie — Less trouble than the twins, I ' m sure, but only half as classy. Cassell and Goldberg, chemists mad, confer with Di Francesco. If that is an experiment. I ' d rather be alfresco. Well slap me down and call me Eider, if that ' s not Ving Harris, Whose purring, stirring rhythm tunes are known from Dahr to Paris. There ' s Bellantoni and Kilday, to whont it was quite puerile To go to work and finish up the capitol dome mural. Bielawski ' s talking to our own Emil Pagliarulo — No doubt about the history those profs now run a school o ' . Duwors and Flynn, the offiters who called the gettogether. As congressmen have brought the ship of state to prosperous weather. Abruzzi and Bonnano are the pair whose work — oh, well. You all know of the excellence of this, their fine hotel. Suddenly the screen goes black. Snooper turns on the light. My neutron tube ' s burnt out, says he. That ' s all the show tonight I need not see more now, I say, My hopes have jibed with Fate. I knew before the men of Engish were tomorrow ' s great. Thus I leave Professor ' s lab with warmth within my heart: For I have seen our triumph and the greatness of our part. Should fortune fail to smile on us, we ' ll tear success from her. We of the class of thirty-nine, whom nothing shall deter! (ii)
