This our Last Will and Testament has been duly signed and witnessed by: Herkie the Herald The Herald Staff PROPHECY As we all gathered together at space port No. 1 clad in our jet-space suit designed especial- ly for the occasion by our loyal professors, John Cole and Alan Lind. We watched the silver chrystals of snow settle on the nearby house of the manager of space port No. 1, John Bubba Withers. We were almost trampled by Captain Ray Eastman and his platoon of space guards which included such notables as Gordon Jones, Tommy Henry, Jerry Haney, Danny Dend- rines, Tony Davis, Jimmy Gates, Neil Nicar, and Louis Kullman. We then heard the hum- ming of our sturdy ship, the H.H.S. HERCULES. The o.k. was given by our trusted engineer, Joe Rayburn, to make ready for our journey into outer space. As we boarded the Hercules the Captain, Gary Sairpkin, introduced us to his fine-fitted crew which included Major Davis, Edgar McDaniel, Joe Massey, Mitzi Diepholz, Diane English, Leland Welden, Nellie Young, Dennis Chew, and Barbara Barron. We were told to prepare to leave at exactly 05:00. Strapping ourselves in with our special made Winky space belts, the pilot gunned the engine and popped the clutch and we took off in a screaming fury. As we broke thru the gravity barrier, we unstrapped our belts and all rushed to the porthole and watched earth slowly decrease in size. After traveling only a short distance we watched the crew prepare to land at space sta- tion 2xx304594. As we landed we were greeted by Lt. Col. Danny McKinney and the crew- men who refueled our ship were: Ovid Bridgewater, Billy Daniels, Jimmy Duncan and Jackie Matheney. We were briefed on our mission by the brilliant professor, Richard Korso- kov, and warned of the dangers ahead. As we were about to blast off the station was raided by Sandy Nelson and her amazon followers, Yoe-Yeaner Ingram, Shelby Blackley, Julia Yates, Ann Braddock, Peggy Parks, Susan Taylor, Norma Lawrence, Dale Smith, Joyce Countess, Patsy Davis, Ann Crossett, and Marilyn Triible. We barely made our escape and we had to bring along the survivors, Sara Crihfield, Barbara Wade, Joy Nearn, Aubury Rust, Betty Davis, and Josephine Norton. We then left them at station xx2903875 under the care of Commander in Chief Howard Leaptrott and Barney Dycus, Barbara Dublin, Martha Max, Virginia Craft, Kay Fallen and Nancy Evans, some close friends of his. DESTINATION MARS!!!-As we neared this red planet of war we sensed adventure, mystery, romance, and danger but our thoughts were interrupted when we heard a clashing noice in the nuetronic electro output room. As we went to investigate we discovered Barbara Brower, James Burress, Arthur Barbee, Annette Watson, Shirley Taylor, Annice Collums, Willa Fern Franks and Ann Lloyd fighting among the nutron maganate tools. The store-a- ways were -soon taking care of and the crew prepared to land. As we decended from the ship we were gretted by George Flash Pierce and a 11 flash bulb salute by his amature class of Virginia Cherry, Ann Lucas, Judy Ingram, Marilyn Davis, Susie Crutchfield, Joyce Arrington, Ruth Moore, Evelyn Hall, Ella Kay Given, Josie Kee and Barbara Hammonds. After the checking in process we were directed to the space port building and were intro- duced to our guides, Teddy Lawrence, Charles McSwain, and Lionel Bethea. After receiving our instructions we indeavored to begin our journey and were accompanied by our special guards Gary Moore, Phil Malone, Eugene Bradberry and Jack Overby. After a half day journey we came upon signs of the dreadful band of which we had been warned so much about, headed by the blood thirsty leader Sonny Jabo Sanders and his War Mongers. Taking all precaution we changed our direction heading toward the nearest outpost seeking protection. Upon arrival at the post we were greeted but to our surprise it was not the welcome we expected nor wanted. We were immediately seized by Jimmy Poor, Richard Murdock, James Royal, Billy Patterson, and Jack Berressem in the form of brutal creatures. We were then led under the station to a secret passage way which led to an enormous room. As we were ordered to enter we came upon Bobby Crum who had finally achieved his high ambition to become 5rd assistance to the 6th assistance to the assistance to the chief guard. He was showing his power by keeping up with the slave girs, expecially Olivia Bell who was President of the Slave Girl's Outer Space Organization which was holding their annual convention. Other members of the organization who we caught a glimpse of were: Johnnie Brahnman, Barbara Herd, Cynthia Neal, Mary Ruth Tilliman, Betty Fryar, Katherine Owen, Kay Owen, Joy Lynn Palmer, Wilma Rhodes, Mar- garite Royal, and Ruby Sasser. We were led to a much smaller room which was poorly lighted, but we could sense a feeling of much danger by these bandits. Lead through the room we almost stumbled upon Ruth Van Hooser and Willie Wiginton who we found were Jabo's most prized captives. As the guard turned to quiet the prisioners we saw a chance to escape. As we went fleeing toward the passageway to freedom we were cardful but quick. Once in the light we checked to see that all were there and discovered that we had some- how left Loretta and had Fay Jamison by the hand. We had no time for explanation for seen coming toward us in a mass of fury were the 10 tall men, Jerry Baker, Jim Bramlett, Charles Hector, La Verne Kolivas, Robert Wiggins, Don Newton, James Mitchell, Kostas Taras, Frankie Williams, and Leonard Yates. As we fled for safety we glanced back and saw some one had come to our rescue and were attacking the 10 tall men, it was the 7 little boys, Bobby Deen, Thomas Graves, Bill Jacobi, Thomas Mulligan, Thomas Mathis, Robert Haire, and Neil Parris, using their super-charged disinfectant ray. After this quirk of fate we pondered upon the rescue of our dear companion. We spotted a scouting party from space port No. 4 led by Sgt. Jerrold Dewease and his sq. Herbert Arms, Jimmy Lampley, Billy Ramsey, Paul Pearson, Howard Ferguson, Jack Calhoun and Jimmy Dallas. Offering advice on how as to help in the rescue, we then embarked in a long and lengthy search which resulted in a discovery of a cave over the vilians hide out. As we entered further we heard strange and exotic music. Going toward this enchanted sound we found an opening in the wall. We recognnized at once the musians as Carol Masserano, Loretta Harding, Loy Dennington, Barbara Lunsford, and Robert Pittman led by the master of music himself Gigi Poston. Directly below we saw the vilian perched on his throng. Dancing before him were his favorite harem which we recognized as Sharon Aren- dale, Joy Deckleman, Beverly Birmingham, Frances Gatewood, Carolyn Williams, Dorothy Hatley, Jo Nell Johnson, Ruth Proctor, Hazel Herman, Harriet Smith, Beverly McFaddin, Phyllis Simmons, Peggy Armstrong and Carolyn Black., led in the center by an active classmate Jean Little. As the dancing stopped we then saw six husky guards escorting in the prisioner. As they neared this unscrupulous demon we knew at once the prisioner was our companion. We then put our plan into action. The order was given to draw our super charge disinfector ray gun. We yelled down for them to stand back or to be blown like scrampled stars and to realiese the prisioner. She then climbed up the steps to where we were and immediately we fled. Making it safely back to our ship we were eager to start for home. We waited for a short while for the relief crew. We understood the very capable crew as Fritzi Russell, Jane Stovall, Patricia Williams, Ruby Valentine, Barbara Warren, Lynette May, Patsy Patterson, Beverly Leach, Beverly Keith, and Sandra Lawrence. As they prepared to blast off we settled back with sighs of relief and safety. After traveling only a short while we spotted a small space station. We stopped and were met by two cadets Stanley Cooper and Ronnie Bledsoe who asked if we could take some passengers aboard. Naturally we obliged and we escorted them aboard our ship. They were: Glenda Roberts, Joyce Wilson, Shirley Winters, Nolen Har- per, Iva Lour Poole, Betty Pannell, Barry Houston, Polly Thorn, Betty Pennington, Ruby Womble, and Mary Lynn Wilson. Blasting off once again we were speedly on our way. Approximately 3,500,000 miles from earth Elizabeth Leslie and Ruth McPhail our two in- tellegent radar students called us to the power deck where it showed two unidentified ob- jects. As we stopped to investigate we understood them to be Roy Nolen and Donnie Weakley who had been stranded on a milk bottle for 3 days. It was our inter solar duty to take them with us. Upon arrival at earth we were greeted by some fellow students, Frances Fitzgerald, Mary Frances Tramel, Jim Jeffries, Ima Jean Gatewood, Sylvia Lewis, Linda McBride, Cosby Welden, Ruth Nunn, Myra Bluestein, Jerry Stell, Nancy Stripling, Vivian Holloman, Frank Underwood, Peggy Guthrie and Beverly Lewis. We then thanked our lucky stars we were safely home.
