CLASS PROPHECY 4400! Me 7 ehul: The sun is just rising as we approach Huntertown in the year of 1897. Buzzing down the new super highway in our Ford of the Future at two hundred miles per hour, we encounter a sign hanging on a post. It informs us that we are approaching the one and only city which has changed in every way except driving. We find the same old city of slow drivers. The population at the present day is too large to count. Bringing our new tin can to a halt in front of one of the coziest little cottages in the town, we climb out of the car, trip up the walk, and are about to ring the doorbell When whom do we see gossiping over the back fence but the two old maids of the class of '46, Elizabeth Iones and Marjorie Smith. They are arguing about which one is go- ing to get the new bachelor, Robert Richey, who recently moved in next door. Whoever gets him will have to be a good cook for we hear that Robert never got married be- cause he couldn't find anyone who could cook enough for him to eat. Finally getting around to ringing the doorbell again, we meet, flying out on the end of the broom, that happy- go-lucky little guy, Lloyd Gump, now the disobedient husband of the former Nondis Becktell. lt seems that Lloyd loves to start the day off with a bang and besides he can save three cents if he goes part way on the broom. With this thre cents me can buy all the more for his lova- ble wife, Dodging out of the way, we find ourselves just outside of the nursery door. lust then we hear a loud scream which came from within the next room, We rush to the door and peek through the keyhole to find their nursemaid, Donald McKinley, who has just taken the bot- tle away from the kids because he was getting hungry himself. Once again out in the fresh air, we notice Don Genth, now a doctor, coming towards us in great haste. ln one hand he has a satchel full of pink liver pills and dangling on his other arm in his beautiful nurse, Betty Easterday. He is on his way to administer first-aid to lack Bone Grim's kids, who have a dreaded disease called bonitis . In order to support his wife, Barbara Van Anda, and ten kids, lack works hard each day scrubbing floors at the city morgue. Glancing above at the big courthouse clock, we see it is nearly time for a great trial to take place-Warner vs. McComb. Myron Warner has brought suit against Bruce McComb, the handsomest man in town, for running away with his charming wife, Elizabeth Wise, who has been seen at several football games with Bruce. Myron with- draws the charges when his wife breaks down and cries in his arms. Myron just can't stand to hear a woman cry. Our next stop is at the Exquisite Hotel owned by George Gallaway, Ir. We find the hotel so mammoth and beautifully designed that it is impossible to describe it. There on a pedestal we find George, dressed in his bathing suit, posing for his wife, Effie Botts. In this way Effie can keep him from chasing the hotel maid, Norma Fox. He tries to keep her from getting her hands dirty in the scrub water. At the present time we find Norma decked out in a pair of overalls with a red hanky tied around her neck and litttle cap gun in her pocket playing 'cop and robber with the hotel chef, Howard Hess. Howard wants to learn how to capture the one girl in his life, Ioyce Branning, who enjoys writing the Dorothy Dix column for the town newspaper. Further on We run into the Collosal Theater owned and operated by William Lutter. One of the star features of the day is the Frank Sinatra of '87, Richard Pepe, who appears singing Throw Me One Dozen Tomatores. Since no. one in the audience is fullfilling Richards wish, his twin boys, Ornery and Corny, have decided to answer their paps request by throwing him one dozen tomatoes. No wonder his wife, Genevieve Guiff, is gray haired. At Hmnytmoment her husband might be thrown out of the ea er. Another attraction is the greatest ballet dancing team of all times, Norman Plummer and his wife Gladys Leiter. It really took lots of persuasion from Gladys to get Nor- man to do theatrical work rather than settle down and raise a flock of chickens. The George Arnold Modeling School is our next stop. Here we find George busily watching his two most out- standing models, Lorraine Opliger and Phyllis Smith, who are modeling the latest diaper model bathing suits. His wife, lean Ann Campbell, is down on her knees begging him to run for mayor, but George seems to find this job far more interesting. Farther on we come across the Horstmeyer Riding Academy. Richard is running a nice little business with twenty horses on his fifty-acre ranch. We find his old school-day heart-throb, Anna Adams, now his wife, teach- ing all the little Horsies to ride. Looking up we see a big bird-or is it a plane? Did superman really come to life? Nol it's only Bob Gordon, now a window washer by profession, washing windows on the twenty-ninth floor of the Huntertown National Bank. With his fifteen-dollar a week salary he has managed to find and support his beautiful blond wife, Maryann Kee- ner. Maryann loves to prepare her husband's favorite food of sauerkraut and banana splits. Walking down Main Street, we see a small building being erected by the Richard Moore Construction Com- pany. The owner of the company is busily pushing along the work on the Margaret Overly Day Nursery. It will be managed by Richard Yearling, a nurse maid by profes- sion, who wishes to install dresser drawers for children's beds, This is the only job that Richard could find where he really enjoys himself. Our next stop is at the attorney's office, where we find Donald Doster in a very disagreeable mood with his wife, lean Davis, sitting on his knee. Don is trying to persuade lean to give him a divorce for he has suddenly fallen in love with the world-noted sword swallower, Luella Bloom. lean doesn't mind giving him a divorce since she has been making eyes at a certain Robert Tonkel, but she hates the idea of Luella teaching the four little Dosters to eat swords for breakfast instead of their usual Wheaties. Coming out into the fresh air again we hear some hot music just like that from Harlem. Man, was it hotl It's Alan Herendeen and his Red Pepper Orchestra playing the latest boogie-woogie piece called A Red Hair Lay on Pa's Shoulder. Bryce Fitch and his dancing partner, Alvera Aikins, are showing the latest boogie-Woogie dance. The rug was worn to shreds and now the floor is turning to sawdust. Slipping out in the open again, whom do we see buzz- ing by on a motorcycle but Darlene Butt, Huntertown's chief cop, on her way to arrest Lee Freeman who has just held up the Huntertown National Bank and has es- caped with fifty dollars in pennies. We are next greeted by George Van Anda on roller skates. He is being chased by his wife, Pauline Pulver, who is carrying a rollin' pin. Poor George kissed the moose on the wall instead of his wife when returning from work this evening. George runs a little beauty salon on the edge of town so he can keep his hair in ship-shape. Night is slowly creeping upon us as we make our last visit. This time it's the Herdman Mansion. When arriv- ing, we find Robert gracefully combing the beautiful hair of his wife, Marilyn Smith. Robert is now the greatest poet of the twentieth century. Slowly our eyes begin to close as we are talking of the good old days of '46, Finally we are resting and sleeping quietly when all of a sudden there's a loud noise that startles us. We awaken to find that the bell has just rung ending another exciting class period. END
