CLASS PROPHECY iThis does not deal with actual humans, places or events, only with Gonzaga students and their futurel. lEditor's note-This hurt me worse than it's going to hurt youj. It was a hot day in August, l952. County Auditor Oriard sat by his desk trying to amuse himself by absorbing the cares of the world through the medium of daily newspapers. He read the glaring headlines-HITLER NEARING FRENCH COAST, RUS- SIANS CLOSE BEHIND. Old stuff. He picked up another-PACI- FIC TURNING YELLOW. CAUSE BELIEVED TO BE JAP PROPA- GANDA, General MacArthur tells American soldiers to stop sinking so many enemy ships. The some thing every day. Noth- ing new for the last ten years! He turned disgustedly to a less important page in an old newspaper, YOUNG TENOR NEW DISCOVERY FOR METROPOLITAN OPERA CO, Say, there was something about that in the latest paper. Sure enough, here it was-YOUNG TENOR NEW LOSS FOR METROPOLITAN OPERA CO. By a queer trick of fate, the future star, Bob Dahmen, was trapped on the stage after an aria from Tannhauser, and drowned in tomato iuice, singing 'till the end. His last words were, Gurgle-gurgle-burp. Bob Dahmen-hmm, the name sounded familiar. Oh yes, he went to good old Gonzaga. That brought on a brilliant idea. Why not spend the afternoon look- ing through his files for information on old friends. Leaning his chair against the filing cabinet, he pulled out a drawer and began-A-Abber-Abbet-Adams-Adams-Joe Adams- Adams, Joe-I947-Description: Has arms, legs, head and body. Will take no responsibility for further details. Thinks he is an artist-a failure. T952-Stopped thinking-a coming success. Comment-Oh yeah. Antonich, Ken-I 947-Tall, dark, gruesome. Has that well-groomed appearance. Wears chin shrubbery and dark, black eyes with droopy ears. Poses as Spaniard. Unoccupied. i952-Obtained work as promoter of Good-Neighbor Policy. lExtra note-A.Y. S.L., Association of Young Spanish Ladies, proposes amendment to Good-Neighbor PoIicy.l App, Harry-l947--Always well dressed, as they say on the farm. Has o manly build and large, black eyebrows. Occupa- tion-selling Webster Dictionaries. I952-Fired for not being better informed in his work. Blefgen, Ed and Louie-1947-Partners in Blefgen Bros. Fine Clothes. A Sale for Every Day of the Week. If you find your- self confronted by two outstretched palms and discover that your money is filling them, you have iust been sold a goodly portion of Blefgen Bros. T952-Helping Red Cross. iExtra note -Red Cross drive to aid needy. Bundles from Britain arriving at Blefgen Bros. Comment-new sale starting Mon.l Bruya, Ed-I947-Alias Bowzer, alias The Bull. Drafted in air corps, learning to fly. l952-On first solo flight became ner- vous at sight of vulture carrying napkin, crossed hands over eyes, and dove to escape vulture, shot past some Jap bomb- ers, scaring the little men into flight, and ended up somewhere in the middle of the earth with hands crossed over chest. Com- ment-tsk, tsk. Boschert, Frank-I947-His alleged life an entire wreck. It seems the great event of being born left him speechless. He is work- ing his way through Medical Lake, although the place is driv- ing him nuts. l952-Just sitting and smiling. Carbaugh, Bill-I947-Say nothing, it might go away. l952- Oh well. Carroll, Bob-I947-Looks like average husband. i952-Calls his wife Sweetie-face, and has a definite shut-in appearance. It is rumored that he's going to break loose some day. Cavanaugh, Pat-1947-When last seen resembled a combination of Sydney Greenstreet, Edward Arnold and Frank Viro. Oc- cupation: Bank teller. Comment-Bank money disappearing, bookkeepers puzzled. i952-Lost I2O lbs., supposedly from a strenuous diet. Comment-bank gaining money, bookkeepers satisfied. Clarno, DonAl947-Sort of a two-legged Dumbo. Occupa- tion, Working in Defense Production making bombs. i952- Business still booming. IExtra note-Don seems rather bruised, cause unknown.Il Corbett, Walt-I947-Typical mad professor in chemistry lab. Occupation: Mixing concoctions to cure l'?lJ Gonzaga football team. I952-Athletics banned at Gonzaga. Davey, Jim-I947-My vocabulary insufficiently extensive to de- scribe. Merits, Decorated for bravery. During an air raid was accidently kicked in the teeth by a rude blonde. His cries repulsed a Japanese invasion. i952-From information gath- ered, it is believed that the blonde was Perle Horber, endur- ance runner, and that .lim is still chasing, howling with rage. Fox, Joe-I947-Must have a description but it has not been dis- covered. Has a queer habit of tripping old ladies. i952-In Sacred Heart Hospital for treatment of cuts and bruises. iEdi- tor's note-some old lady is standing at the entrance doors, beating her fists and shouting, Let me in. I'II finish him off good. Frietag, Jack-I947-Married. I952-Still unheard from. A pass- erby states that he saw a haggard, worn face, lined with worry, peering Iongingly at the outside world from a certain window. This may be Frietag. Gottschulk, Paul-I947-It is believed he is quite tall. A balloon- ist states definitely that he reached an altitude great enough to see PauI's top. Occupation: Paperhanger's assistant.

Was about to comb the hair of a customer when the police came in and took the ax away from him. i952-Sits in iail grinning and decapitating termites whose heads protrude from the wall. Huetter, George-I947-Partner in Peaver-Huetter, Inc., Grocer- ies. i952-There are queer rumors concerning the death of Peavers after he was caught pilfering a nickel from the cash register. We make no statement. IEditor's note-Huetter 8. Co. are said to be prospering.l J Jackman, Jerry-1947-We believe he is quite thin but we can't see him to prove it. He is the result of a battle between red and white corpuscles. Comment-neither won. i952-No oc- cupation. Remaining alive is enough work. Kimmel, Jack-1947-Tall, handsome, exceedingly reserved and sophisticated. Occupation: General Manager of the Crescent. Happily married, and has a nice home. i952-F.B.I. fighting this type of propaganda. Lemieux, Al-I947-Adiectives, futile. .lust look at him and you won't believe it either.
