Patowackovitshsky sniffs at the air. He looks around and says, Do you snail something burning? ' Here in the experiment kitchen of the General Foods Corporation is Harriett© Kniss, better known as Ha Kniss, because of her position in the company. She has replaced Betty Crocker as head dietian. Hattie got this Job through the influence of the Dean Dairy and her superior ability to Sling the Hash. The mist of the crystal ball fades away and Patorackovltshaky speaks for the last time. I have foretold the future of the Class of 191 2. May success be with you always. ’ Then still muttering to himself he vanishes as into thin air. Then as we prepare to depart can you blame us if we are slightly(?) filled with egotism?

While being seated, all eyes were searching for the crystal ball, which would either mean failure or success. Presently, before our very eyes the ball appeared as if by Jagic. Expectancy filled our minds. The great ball started its round of swirling• As it stopped—George Dean fainted. Now the first image appears. What does he see? Charles Boyes on his well - improved farm riding the latest model all rubber-tired tractor, designed by Arlo Shanklin, which was a special present from Secretary of Agriculture, Richard Dickie Jackson, Thus was depicted our Charles Boyer of high school fame. From the coast of California to Florida all in the space of a few whirls of the crystal ball---Miami Beach underneath one of the beach shades, chatting with the 1« rich, we see the form of LeRoy Cgden. He is telling his listener what big money there is in being a walking advertisement for Vitamin L. Again there seems to be a musical picture. As it unfolds the Professor—«ays-- An All Girl Orchestra '. Phil Spitalny 's Orchestra. Through the haze cornea a poor but perfect picture to his mind. A baby grand piano I Eileen Brown I Oir cam Eileen Brown of the Class of '1 2. Same brown eyes—same brown hair—same nimble fingers— but her glance is not quite so shy as she has become accustomed to many admirers. The entire class glanced at Eileen's beaming face, everyone spell bound. But this spell was soon broken by the voice of Patowhackovitshsky revealing to us that the whirling mists seemed to have taken on a terrific whirl. Through all he cculd see wings 1 An aeroplane I Some daring aviator being decorated I See the professor gaze intently I Not an aviator but an aviatrix. The feat she perlonasd? Nothing less than having flown the bomber that caused the Rising Sun to set. Who is it? He looks closely. The President of the United States is pinning a medal on Lavanne Lowe. We gasped I We ah-ed I And then sat back to hear more I The next reading almost took us off our feet,— but we were not all surprised, Patowhackevitshaky paused, gazed intntly before saying, A court room scene in New York City . CXir hearts fell for the word divorce cams to our minds. But imagine our elation to hear him say— Son» one is addressing Mr. District Attorney I Vho responds ?—Some one short of stature, but possessing great dignity. It is none other than John Ogden. Patowhackovitshsky seems to be thrilled with what appears before his eyes. A hughe crowd? Pennants waving I What can it mean? The scene develops into a Rose Bowl game. The teams? Nebraska and Notre Dame. The coaches are exchanging greet- ings. Who are they? Gilbert Bettger coach of Nebraska has his hand upon the shoulder of George Dean, coach of Notre Dame. They are being announced over the public address system. The announcer, his services attained at a huge sum speaking with perfect articulation, perfect diction, saying, This is your announcer. Mason Lisk . The crystal ball swirls madly and Patowackovitshsky sees Arlene Rose, the red- headed girl of the class of 'U2 in the office of the Wig and Glue factory. She is the private secretary of the President of the Conqpany, Mr. Fuzzywigg. Ch her desk is a picture of a noted explorer who was her late husband and has been missing for the last two years. Her only hope now is to marry the Boss. Patowackovitshsky gazes seriously into the crystal ball and what does he see? A sign on a building says, Reducing Lessons . Before a group of rather chubby children stands a lady of small stature, who is showing them different types of re- ducing exercises. It seems that cne of this lady's ambitions was to be a Physical Education teacher in some large school. When she arrived in Podunk Junction to take over her first Job, she found all the kids were too fat to take part in my sports. Her last resort was to give reducing lessons. It was in this school that Betty Murrell achieved one of her high school ambitions which was to grew taller. B y exact measurements Betty has grown two inches since she left good old F.H.S. in
