for him is Mrs. Cantrell, the former Doris Bailey, and James George, president in charge of his large bank in West Huntsville. The crowd is beginning to settle down now as it is almost time for the program to begin. Some of the ladies sitting in a row to themselves are Carrie Will McLean, Pauline Sudduth, and Betty Joyce Screws, who are missionaries in China; Ann Housman who is still working for Bell Telephone in Huntsville, and Jeanne Sandlin, Nancy Sanford, and Frances Sparkman, who are working in the jewelry department of M. G. M. in Hollywood. With them is Ramona Gupton, the head nurse at the Catherine Jacks' Public Hospital. The room is in an uproar now as everyone is laughing at Mr. and Mrs. Charles Cummings. Margaret has Charles by the ear pulling him away from Sally Ann Palmerlee Grote, America's outstanding journalist. Laughing and flirting as they come in the door are the late-arrivals Florine Barron, Bernell Beilis, and Mildred Bennett, who are research agents in the secretarial field and Frances Gates, Barbara Douglas, and Laura Louise Brackeen, noted interior decorators. Also among the late-comers are Jack Roberts and Jimmie Forbes, who are still arguing over the farm at Jeff, Alabama. With them are Tom Guthrie and B. A. Stockton, partners in the automobile industry in Michigan. Everyone is rising now as the Chief Justice of Supreme Court, Frank Ford, and his Justices, Richard Carter and Norman Pizitz, enter. Flash! Bruce Ross tells me that Harry Coons has just won a divorce suit for Mary Louise Shela-mer. Karl Woltersdorf was the defendant. Every profession is well represented today. I see Sammy Cttrano, Arvil Hymer, and Jimmy Reeder, three of Alabama's leading dentists. Jimmy has his very modernistic office in New Hope. Among the secretaries are Edna Bryant, Betty Jo Harris, Ramona Hulsey, Juanita O’Rear, and Charlotte Riggs, who work in the office of Jere Murphy, an agricultural expert. Well, radio listeners, I have seen everything now! As usual, Archie Todd is willing to play a game of cards. In one of the darker corners I see Oliver Ward, Louis Foster, Robert Green, and Robert Milner all occupied by the genius Archie and his card tricks. And guess who's looking on? None other than Mary Lou Horne, Virginia Hosch and Geraldine Holder. Loud whistles and sighs have called my attention to three of America's leading play boys, Bob Archibald, A. C. Daniel, and James Holliman, who have just arrived. Trying to get their attention are art designers Sarah Snyder, Kathryn Wood, Carolyn Pedigo, and Jeanne Walker. The auditorium is now quiet and everyone is seated except Buddy Black and Howard Gore, who have just arrived. I would like for you to hear the speeches but I see my time is up—so I'll return you to the present. Take it away! —MELVIN SIMMS, Class Prophet. ★ ★★★★★★★ Poge 24
