THE CHART Class Flower T r HERE are two reasons why we have chosen the rose for our class flower. First, because of its beauty and richness, and second, because it is universally acknowledged as the symbol of love. We are in love with life in general because of all it has to offer. We are in love with the past, for it has meant much to us. We are in love with the present, for these are our happiest days, and we are very much in love with the future because it holds promises and hopes, the mystery of which is very sweet and appalling. The future has much in store for us. There are duties and pleasures in which we as men and women will participate. Our success in the work we have chosen to do will depend upon our forbearance and integrity. We must advance step by step, until we have achieved our goal and advanced to meet success, just as the rose blooms forth in all its glory. We shall, therefore, grew slowly but surely, developing beautiful characters and personalities, the fragrance of which will penetrate through- out our daily life and cast its influence upon our associates.

THE CHA R 7W ' s r s e, — “I see the interior of the home of a well known New York society matron. A ball is being given in honor of Colonel Lindbergh in recogni- tion of his latest accomplishment. There are many notables present and if my crystal does not fool me I see the faces of many former Tech stu- dents. On one side of the room I see Clarence Clark talking to charming Dorothy Lutes, now a well known actress. Seated under the palms in the conservatory are Muriel Eastman and James Munster. There by the beautiful fountain is Gertrude Kosin, the noted pianist, accompanied by Harry flatten, the broker from Wall Street. “I have a new scene in my crystal. I see a small village in Switzerland. A group of vacationers come out, of a hotel and begin to consult with a guide. The group looks very gay and picturesque in their bright colored garments. I am curious to see who these people are. Why, there is Mae Bostian! She inherited a fortune shortly after her graduation and has lived a life of ease since. It must be fate that has brought these old friends together again, for I recognize Esther Campbell. She has made a name for herself as a very capable member of the Board of Education. She is accompanied by the congenial George Leu, now a successful business man from Philadelphia.” He hui lied on: My crystal now brings before my eyes a large boat out on the ocean. It is the Majestic and on its ample decks are seated individuals that look very interesting. I see the Captain, stately and proud in his immaculate white uniform. The first mate addresses him as Captain Elmer Amwald and he is the subject of much admiration. Glancing curiously around the deck my eyes rest upon a gentleman and his companion. Her quiet, dumure ways mislead one and she would not be recognized as the lively dark-haired yell leader of former happy davs Of course, it is Inez O’Brien.” ,“ T see in my crystal the Radio Department at the Lion Store. 1 he broadcast children s stories every afternoon and the young ladv in chaige is called the Story Lady by the hundreds of children who love her although they have never seen her. I recognize her as Inez Hendrickson On Monday and Thursday afternoons the Story Lady reads poems to the children. These poems are written by Gwendolyn Roberts. ‘‘The fifteen story Indiana Hotel on State and Hohman Streets has just been purchased by Mildred Powell and Lillian Kuschel “I see a young woman seated at an easel. She is painting dili- gently. She pauses and turns toward me, it is Luella Vanes. “My crystal shows me a large department store in New York In the Accounting Department I see Lucille Hartman and Lilv Epstein, and in the same store I see Kathryn Vasiliades as a very capable Sales Manager. I enter one and there I find “I see the shops along Fifth Avenue. Louie Friedman as manager. “We are back in our studio now— I glance at the clock, in ex- actly one minute the Crystal Gazer leaves the air. There are no more V i S1 ?u S ' % my c 7? ta1 ’ its travels for this evening are over. One member ot the Class of 29, however, has not yet passed in array before you that member has just stepped into the studio and he asks me to tell you that this decade has brought to him much fame as the golden voiced announcer from W. M. A. Q. The Crystal Gazer is now turning the microphone oyer to Kenneth Guse and leaving the air until 7 o’clock to- morrow evening. Goodbye everybody! Twent i-eight
