CLASS PROPHECY Well, I guess it's the gypsy in me-I don't know any other reason why they chose me to foretell the class prophecy. I will now gaze into this crystal ball to see what the future holds for this grand class of 1953. Turn onward, turn onward Oh time in your flight Let me see the graduates of '53 Ten years from tonight! Dawn McNeill Boyd decided to follow her husband up. She is now working near the army base as a personnel worker. As we remember Dawn's personality, we're sure she will succeed. I hear Memorial Hospital has quite a time telling F reida and Faye Cloer apart. We always did at school too, but they were very successful and turned out to be very good nurses. Our quiet,' Tony Woods attended Appalachian College and decided to really make him- self worth while. He always was good at basketball, but we never dreamed he would someday be coaching in a large city school. Shirley Greene is married to one of her ole flames I hear she is a very efficient wife. Maybe her Home Economics did her some good after all. Carl Osborne always has been pretty good at sketching. He now has a job as a commercial artist for one of the large newspapers in Raleigh. Say, who is that smiling nurse coming out of Room 211 in Duke Hospital? Sue Watts, of course. Who wouldn't get sick just for her to hold his hand? Russell Dula and Jimmy Miller are two of the most successful farmers of our day. I've heard they had to build larger barns this year because they are buying new machinery. What they learned in F . F. A. must have been worth a lot. Listen, I hear music. It sounds like the voice of Marlene Greene, who is now recording the nationis top hit tunes. Her voice will always be remembered by her classmates, because singing was always her first love. Betty Cottrell is now secretary for her husband. Betty always was good in typing, but no one ever guessed she would someday be a secretary and marry her boss. My, that new filling station that jay Greene is building is really swell. Some people wonder how he does so well, but I would like to know if his conscience hurts him when he sells three quarts of gas for a gallon. As we all remember, Mildred Watts started her career as a housewife early. She has carried her career even farther and now has two smiling youngsters. No one can say Mildred didn't make a go of her marriage. Lower the gang plank, folks. Do you see what I see? None other than our own Hersel Storie, who is now in the United States Navy. Say, who is that going in the parsonage? The former Shirley Andrews, who is bride of the new Baptist minister. She always was a wonderful person, and I know sheill make a model wife. Dewey Hawkins is the fellow to call when you need to have your sink unstopped. I under- stand he is a first-rate plumber. Take a letter, please, Miss Carolyn Bradshawf' She is secretary to the President of a large bank in Greensboro. Pictures Live Forever is Patsy Barloweis slogan. Patsy is now a wonderful photographer. I hear she has qutie a way with children. Say, whatis this? Buy your tickets for the baseball game tonight. Gary Clark, formerly of Happy Valley, North Carolina, stars for the Boston Red Soxf, Well, all I can say is, I bet it's going to be exciting. Edna Hawkins, as you know, attended Wake Forest. She liked it so well that she is now on the faculty there. Charles Robbins is doing quite well for himself in his new hardware store. He says the women don't buy rolling pins any more, but he passes the word along to the new brides that he has a new supply of can openers. Eric Curtis has finally gotten on television as a comedian. There was never a dull moment at school as long as Eric was around. I suppose you wonder what the crystal ball holds for me. My, it looks interesting, but right now, as you can see, I'm too busy with the future of my classmates. Eloise Pearson, Prophet
