CLASS PROPHECY As we three learned prophets climb into our huge space ship which will take us into the World of Tomorrow, we gaze with rapture on the scenes that are past and have profound hopes for that which is to come. We land in the glorious future and are carried to the Theater of Tomorrow in a luxurious limousine of the most modern vintage, We enter the theater and are seated before the screen. Suddenly there flashes before us a vision of Wayne Peckham's mar- velous school, which specializes in the nlight fantastic.U The door to the dancing studio is pushed open violently and a young man storms in carrying a sample case filled with a famous brand of cosmetics. The young man is none other than Glenn Meredith who has been voted the most valuable and voluble sales- mand of 1960. This picture fades and we see a crowded street corner. In the center cf the crowd we see and hear Lucille Epling, now president of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, trying to convert young people to her views which seem to have changed some- what g ' When we had recovered from this shock sufficiently, we beheld a beautiful forest and hill. A cabin appearedg the door opened, and the occupant was revealed. She was sitting on a stool , her bare feet on a barrel, smoking a corn-cob pipe. She turns to us--Mary Koberstein!! The scene changes. Before us is a magnificent concert hall. We are awed by the sound of inspiring music directed by Maestro Howard Bangs whose waving auburn locks are whipped about violently through his efforts and the love of music. Next we see a little white cottage within the city limits. We see a beautiful blond woman sur- rounded by five adorable little children all weeping bitterly, It is the former Wanda Flett, recently deserted by her husband, Everett Lee, who has gone to take up his lifelong ambition of becoming an undertaking

Vainly cursing the faithless Everett we now see Evelyn Coy, finally reconciled to the fact that she will never be tall, but still trying to find a stretching device that will keep others from suffering such a handicap. ' We see next a large theater in which is being shown for an unprecedented run the most successful production of the year, starring Miss Jane Kikuchi, the leading character acress of America. The next scene is an entirely different one-a dense South American jungle. As the picture unfolds before us, we learn that Miss Lorraine Williams, now a noted scientist, has entered the untouched wilds, in search of a snake's fang, with which she hopes to revolutionize the theory pn the construction of false teeth. The scene changes rapidly and we behold a freighter bound for the Orient. Our gaze travels to the hold and we find Lois Heesacker, very thoroughly stowed away, hoping to reach India to buy precious stones for an exclusive New York jewelry store. Next we have before us a vision of Uwackyn Professor Mio, who is now absolutely positive that he has discovered a new planet, the presence of which, if conditions on earth are correct- ed, will premanently cure insomnia. The next scene shows a court room--and we meet Mr. Louis Madison, new known as the foremost ambulance chaser in America, who can make an argument last longer than any other shystcr alive. The following picture shows almost the opposite--a male nurse for infants. We see Charles Furumasu vainly trying to per- suade an infant to imbibe his morning milk. Charlie's slogan is, Whaybe your child doosn't need a nurse, but give me a chance.n Next a fashionable beauty shop is revealed and we see the loading hair stylist industriously work- ing on a rebellious head of hair. The hair stylist, Ray Cline, is now perfecting a hair style for women. At last the revelations of the future come to an end, and we clamber into our space ship and start M on our homeward journey back to 1941. wg , R We U 4. :ff 5.-ji A' , r i P 'i ,2 :, 1 4 f i QI - 4 Ff 5 W.: 5-if ' 3 is 'vs , 2422 1, ,w 1 Y , .Q 5 'fi V-.3 1 ,J Q4 1:5 1- xi .
