As Sonny slowly W squeezed the bulb, the Class w U . ' of 1941 was transported back- ward in time, each person stopping at that period and in that place where he best fitted. In a few moments hy means of Retroactive Television we shall product scenes from the past so that you may learn the fate of these people. But first you must hear what some faculty members who witnessed this strange event were overheard to say: UThis is truly a fitting end. It always was a backward class. I Sometime during the Stone Age Enter Bone Crusher and Hi Jumper Bone Crusher: Hello, Hi Jumper, what's new? Hi Jumper: Why, hi there, Bone Crusher, I hnven't seen you since the lest flood. B. C.: Nope, I went with Grady Hall to the lend of Volcenia to fetch fire and I ain't been back since. H, J,: See any new girls over there? B. C,: Yep--they've got quite an assortment from the 20th century. There's Ruby Young, Jean Urch, Mary Wilson, and Iretta Guymon. Most of them seem quite satisfied, but Ruby's peeved because she doesn't have her skates with her. H, J.: Anybody else traveling that direction? B. C.: Yep, saw Franklin Henson swinging along through the trees and Denver Brosman was riding a dinosaur. Wasn't going very fast-- just out for n jeunt with Ruth Barnaby. By the way, your outfit looks a lot like mine. Make it yourself? H. J.: No, I had Betty Cooke design this from a skin I got from Kenneth Berk. That boy sure is good on bringin' animals down with a club.

CLASS PRDPHECY fContinuedQ B. C.: Yeh, but he doesnft have Wayne Catron beat. Have you seen the mastodon tusk necklace he collected for Lenore Gow? H J' No, I haven't seen it, but I read about it in that Stone Slab gossip column.Pat Sprague puts out. Say, I sure feel sorry for Gene Rice having to chisel all that out for her. B C.: Oh, well, he got lots of practice chiselin' before he came here. Say,the girls seem to find plenty to do, don't they? H. J.: Yeh, Thelma Pinkerton keeps busy designing new hair-dos for the girls. That effect she gets with bear grease and sea shells is too, too stunning, don't you think? B c New, 1 don't, think, but I'd rather have the gif-is fixing freak hair-dos than joining Martha Bott's Stone Age Camp Fire Girls. H J,z Or sitting around gnawin' on bones all the time like June Traister and Juanita Gately. B. C.: No lie. Say, how about us joining Hubert Shaffer's Smoke Signal Corps? Bud Mayfield and Claude wilson just joined. H. J.2 Nope, smoke irritates my nasal passages. I think Ild rather sign up with McCryndle's Drum and Bugle Corps. CA shriek is heard.J B. C.: Say, what's that horrible noise? H. J.: Probably Donald Brooks dragging Nellie Sheasby around by the hair again. B. C.: Don't you think we'd better go and rescue the poor little thing? H. J.: Yeh. II Rome, in the time of Julius Caesar Enter Lucretia and Antonia Lucretia: Greetings, Antonia. We're having lovely weather in Rome this spring. Antonia: Yes, Lucretia. I pray Jupiter may send a nice day for the gladiatorial combats. ave you reserved your seat at the Colisseum? L.: Indeed, but they're costly this year. A thousand sesterces for ours. A.: I care not for the price. I wait with impatience to see that Greek team which our new Director of Public Games is importing. Methinks Fredericus Karns is the best man Caesar has ever appointed. L.: Yes. I saw that team when they exhibited in Sparta. Its members are Jesse Ontiveras, Josephus Beck, Jacobus Beaman, and Georges Clifford. A.: Ah, the one who inspired the Greek poetess, Genevieve Reeder, to write the ode-- the one beginning, HThou runner of long racesn. L.: Aye, truly it was. Georges Clifford is also posing for that fine statue of Apollo that sculptor Lloyd Smith is making. A.: Such honor! DO you plan to see the chariot races also? L.: Indeed, I am anxious to see whether the Woman's Club entry, Patricia Strange, will defeat Raymond Watt. Methinks that with Gladys Frank in that chariot as backseat driver we can divert him from the course. May Diana help us. A.: Yes, what honor it will bring to the women of Rome! If only our I orator, Betty Brown, can win the debate with that Greek champion, Bette Reese, we shall gain our rightful place in public life. Perhaps Soon Caesar will even be willing to accept the wise suggestions
