CibAS o) PU fale te W The class elected me class prophet so I shall try to do my best to foresee the future of my classmates. I have taken a sample of the handwriting of each of the seniors and I have analyzed it. With this analysis and with the aid of my crystal ball I prophesy the following future events: Wilma Hollingsworth’s handwriting shows that she is the career type. She will become an interior decorator and she will make such a success of remodeling her home in Tuxedo that she will become famous. Lois Gilbert is very quiet and peaceful and mixes well with people. She will become personnel director for women at the Ecusta Paper Corporation. Mitchell Brogden is very secretive and does not disclose his business readily. He will become a special investigator for the Federal Bureau of Investigation in Washing- ton, D. C. Charlesteen Scott’s handwriting shows she is a fiend for neatness. She will be- come head nurse at Spartanburg General Hospital in Spartanburg, S. C. Flossie Stepp is the athletic girl of our class. She will become very successful as a basketball coach for the Woman’s College of the University of North Carolina. Albert Bell is the executive type. He will be Secretary of the Navy in 1960. Myrtle Robertson’s handwriting shows her to be very dependable and patient. She will own and operate a kindergarten in Columbia, S. C. Ella Mae Galloway’s handwriting shows her to be very original. She will be- come a famous dress designer in New York City. Grace Gossett is the career type and with her ability to make friends, she will become a very successful model. Bob Greer has a vigorous, forceful writing which shows him to be very self-con- fident. He will organize and become owner of the Greer Contracting Company. Jean McCall likes secretarial work. She will find employment as a secretary with the Civil Service Department in Washington, D. C. Jack Justus likes to work with machinery. He will become manager of the Blythe Brothers’ Construction Company. Evelyn Patterson’s handwriting shows she has talent for advertising. She will become director of the advertising department for “The Good Housekeeping Maga- G ” zine. Garland Garren, who is interested in newspaper work, will become a foreign correspondent for a leading newspaper. Carl Killian, Jr., likes to work math. He will become a math teacher in a high school in New Jersey. Edward Robinson’s ambition is to become an undertaker. He will find success in his work and will become owner of a funeral home in Greenville, S. C. —ALBERT BELL
