Glau ff In the crystal ball I look to see Where ten years hence this class will be, What will happen to hopes and dreams- The lovers, scholars and school-day teams. A mumbo jumbo glumbo frumg Look closely now, for here they come. Ah, now who can this be coming near, With face and hearing of an engineer, It's-yes, Robert Cartwright hammering away On the bridges which he said he'd build some dayg And out of the mist Jack Zeitler strolls, But the mist conceals its mystic scrolls, It covers his career, so I must stopg I can only see that he's in Ridgetop. Fred Carnahan is the next to appearg On his arm Ann Lankford l see quite clear. We all believed this would happen some day. Ah, yes, but now they have turned away. Buck and Helen now come into view, Still having fun like they used to do. New York City then looms before me, And suddenly I am able to see Evelyn Ralph in a high sky scraper, Surrounded by books and iles and paper, She's bookkeeper for a large company, Happy, successful and fair is she. Evelyn Bowling is also working there As stenographer to Mr. Re Vaire. Her life is interesting, stylish and gay, With lots of work and lots of play. In a smart dress shoppe on Fifth Avenue, Miss Dorris Sanders decides the line and hue That Madam will wear this Spring and Fall, For her authority is respected by all. Liz and Lady in the old home town still, Sit chatting about happ'nings in Goodlettsville, Liz's son wants to go to college out West, And Lady's daughter has just won a beauty contest. Vida is coaching Goodlettsville girls this year, And Senior English is taught by Miss Greer, Yes, and her engagement was announced today, He's very handsome and very rich, so they say. Burney Bond has invented a new gadget Which makes learning stick in one's head like , magic. Alice Courtenay moved into her new home last weekg lt's furnished beautifully-all in teake. Ah, but there's Lady rising to go, So I guess we just as well beat it also. The next scene which flashes on the crystal ball Shows just exactly what has happened to Paul. He paces the floor with paternal pride and charm, With a small pink blanket draped on his arm. KP. S.-It must be after midnightj And here's Sue Curtis dressed all in white Helping humanity day and night, ' As head nurse in a famous clinic, Cheerfully relieving pain and panic. Mary Miller too is a graduate nurse, Some patients she cures, but she makes none worse. Lecturing in schools the country o'er Is Mildred Midgett teaching facts galore. I. B. Troutt, a man of wealth and zest, Has made gobs of money in oil out West. Into Hollywood my nosy crystal goes To spy upon classmates here disposed. Mary Ellen, best stylist in town, Decides how to ornament one s crown. A style commentator is Margaret Porter Wood, Telling what you shouldn't wear and stressing what you should. Temesia Dilleha is a famous singin star, Thrilling millions of fans near and far. Praised ever is the beauty of Dorothy Dean, Whose pictures make the covers of modern magazines. The crystal leaves Hollywood far behind. I wonder what others it will find. It flashes inside a transport plane, And reveals Goodlettsville's Torchy Blaneg It's Dorothy Kemper of the New York Star Reporting murders, politics and war. And on this very same plane is posted Birdie Thomas, a cute little hostess. Many miles away from these two classmates, Other members of our class and their lives await. There's Evelyn Joyner happily teaching school, Teaching readin' and ritin' and the golden rules. On experiment farms the country o'er, Mr. Crowe's class is represented by four. There's Douglas and Albert, Bob and lack, Making plants yield more and land less slac. Joe Langford is playing professional baseball, And Ed Dunn will coach football again this Fall. Ruth Bowling is a competent secretary, And Cecil works in the Congressional Library. A private secretary is Norma Pughg Yes, and Doris Ferguson is one too. Annie Cartwright's a milliner in gay Pareeg Jane Anderson is married and a mother of three. Ernest Clarke, an instructor in an aircraft school, Is informed on the use of print and tool. He teaches men to make motors for aeroplanes Which'crowd the modern American air lanes. Mr. Tune and .Victor Ellis are in the army now: Ann Rawls is an army nurse-and how! Mr. Tune looks sick, tired and pale, Carft somebody get him out on bail. Thus has been revealed by my crystal ball The lives and fortunes of one and all. Of our dear classmates in the years to be, Is it a true revelation? We'll wait and see. -jean Russell. Page T-wenty-one

01644 On a balmy day in September, 1937 approximately ninety superby intelligewq freshmen entered upon the premises of secondary education. Amid confusi Miss Helen Robinson was elected Sponsor. Burney Bond was elected to lead us through this irst eventful year. He was assisted by VicefPresident Ann Langford. and Paul Schleicher as Secretary and Treasurer. Frances Drake was elected Football Queen of 1938. This recordfbreaking freshman class wound up the year in astounding fashion by cinching third place in the inter-class contest. , The following year the Sophomore Class was under the sponsorship of Miss Mary Butler Boyd. Paul Schleicher was named Presidentg VicefPresident was Jack Zeitlerg Secretary and Treasurer was Elizabeth Garrett. During this year our ranks were sadly diminished, but we held our own by cinching traditional third place in the interfclass contest. As upperfclassmen prepared for a great year, we started with Mr. Capps as our Sponsorg jack Zeitler was President, Elizabeth Garrett was Vice'President, and Paul Schleicher was Secretary and Treasurer. In March, Mr. Capps departed and Miss Tibbs was elected his successor. On the Ides of March we rang the bell with a very successful Irish Fair. With the proceeds which were derived from this event we entertained, the Seniors. This year we rose to second place in the interfclass contest, losing first place by a mere fifteen points. The junior year was climaxed by a gala outing at Cedar Forest on May 24. The outing was tabbed a great and enjoyable success and a good time was had by all. Our final year was entered upon with high hopes of this being our most successful one. With due consideration, Mr. Tune was elected Sponsorg Robert Cartwright was Presidentg Fred Carnahan was VicefPresident, and Jack Zeitler was Secretary and Treasurer. This class published the most complete and finest annual in the history of the school under the leadership of jack Zeitler as Editor and other members of the staff. The Seniors presented Bachelor's Choice on May 1. The play was put over in a fine fashion and was tabbed a great success. A Senior of the Class of '41 could be identified by a small green book known as Literature and l..ife'Book IV. As we close our senior year with regret and a brighter outlook on life, it is the wish of each Senior, of the Faculty and coming Classes at Goodlettsville High School that the school may continue its upward trend. It is the wish of each and every Senior to bid all an affectionate farewell. ALICE COURTENAY. 'a Page Twenty-tlaree
