CLASS PROPHECY By Margaret Wheeling Luck They had told me that I must prophesy. I knew not what to do. Suddenly, a newspaper dropped into my lap. The heading was Fredericksburg, Virginia, June 30, 1968. Seeing that it contained many familiar names, 1 looked closer. From these records, twenty years yet unborn, your confused prophet read thus: This paper, published by Mr. Edgar Mor¬ ris, a printer, while A.W.O.L. from Atlanta, was dictated in Chinese to his stenographer, Miss Jean Aldridge.

Donald Barr, local undertaker, had em¬ balmed him by mistake five years ago. Miss Peden remarked that he did seem a bit stiff.
