. Y 2-iz-'-f Class Prophecy As our high school days draw to a close, we remember all the days and years we, as a. class. have spent together. The other day as I sat thinking about the past, it suddenly came to me that we should all be thinking about the future. I wondered where all my classmates would be in ten years from now. lt wasn't at all hard to vision the success that each would attain. Here are some of the things I could vision. Mary Alice Brown now runs the Flash Taxi Service in Holden. Her motto is We get you there on time-but we don't guarantee in what condition or how long before time. Glenn Timmons is a special investigator with the F.B.1. He has solved many so-called perfect crimes. Doris Hill has an excellent job advertising for Pepsodent. She has that smile that sparkles. Allen's Alley is where. the gang gathers. This place where the elite meet is owned and operated by none other than Eddie Allen. Janette Raker is now the head bookkeeper for the Park Produce Co. Beverly Hobbs has reached the heighth of her ambition. She is Chief of Staff in one of our coun- tries' largest hospitals. On a windy day Charles Huber can usually be seen on the corner of Hollywood and Vine. The rest of his time is spent training Cheeta, the pet monkey, for Tarzan pictures. Dana Rae Hough is considered one of the most successful housewives in this community. Her lovely home is the envy of all her friends. Jack Jones is living up to the name, Jack- of-all-trades. ' Betty Briscoe is content to just wander about listning to the bird's songs. I'm sure you have all heard of the R.K.O. Studios. They are owned by Mary Ramsey, Floyd Kendrick, and Bill O'Brien. Their latest star dis- covery is Jeanne Briscoe, who has a dance spec- ialty all her own. Gene Carter has become a politician. He is campaign manager for the Plutocrat Party. This party is campaigning for the Big Stare. Loretta Gudde is fashion editor for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. She features her own origi- nal designs. Ernest Gudde wanted a job with altitude. He is a window washer at the Empire State Building. Jean Sappington, at her age, is still interested in dolls. She hopes to have a whole doll family some day. Does your radio announcer sound different lately? If so, you have probably been hearing the smooth, mellow voice of Lowell Smith. Shirley Vifarren works for an advertising agency. She represents the short girl in hosiery advertisements. J. O. Markland's milk route has been greatly extended and increased. lt now covers all of Johnson County. Ruby Jean Fitzgerel is the head of a company which makes exclusive hand-painted neckties. She has even painted some for the president of this country. Lloyd XVest didn't let his acting talent die. He is working for Paramount in a new 'picture called The Trials of Lloyd. Ruth Joyce Dameron is Dean of Women at Vassar. She enjoys her work a great deal, The Snider tractor is the best tractor now on the market. This tractor company was originated by Lucian Snider. New York has its first woman governor. It is Joan VVilliams. I hear that she and the ex- governor had quite a political battle. Clarabelle Courtney is a commerce teacher in a high school in the East. She is very well liked by all the students. The large-st kennels for the breeding and train- ing of greyhounds in this part of the country is under the managament of Kenneth Carter. Doris Hancock is selling tickets at Lowe's Midland in Kansas City. She is greatly missed at the Holden Theatre. Arthur Murray Studios has a new dance in- structor. 'l hat's right, J. C. Towles. June Briscoe is an elevator operator in the Muelebach Hotel. She likes this position although it does have its ups and downs. Holden has a new Ford-Mercury garage. John Hank Dean is the owner. His very efficient sec- retary is Norma Bradbury. The Daredevil Driver, Rodney Sinimermon, is now touring the country. People in Holden used to see his performances free. Joan Jeans is the latest discovery of the VVowers Model Agency. Her picture can be seen on nearly any magazine cover. Chic Young no longer draws the Blondie and Dagwood comic strip. Robert Hart has that job. . The Early Optical Company serves people throughout the country. Myrtle Jane Early has her head office in Denver. Marshall Abel's winning ways have done much to improve this country's foreign relations. I-le is the foreign minister to Russia. One of the best professional girls' basketball teams in the Middle VVest is the Hot Shots. Jan- ice Buckstead is Captain of this team. WValter Snook is chauffeur for a famous Holly- wood producer. He always did want to drive a big car day after day. Charles Dean, otherwise known as the second Dizzy Dean is pitching for the St. Louis Cardi- nals this season. We all remember Mary Ann Miller as that snappy snare drummer. The marching band she's playing with now has captured many national honors. Dwight Peerson appeared with his motorcycle in the races at the State Fair this year. Notre Dame is very proud of its new halfback. This is Fred Hanna. Robert French is head of the Agricultural Department at Kansas State College. He is also the owner of several large sheep ranches. Now that you each know what you are to do, all you must do is to climb to your success. Good luck to you, class of '-19. Ry Marilyn Dillon 'uf-' l I I r
