TLASS PRQPHECYE From near and far the class of 1951 is gathering for its reunion with Mr. Howards. You have all heard of Mr. Howards, the great oil tycoon. We vowed that we would return to the scene of our crimes in ten years' time, so here we are. Here we have a celebrity--our newly-elected king of the hobosl Dick Dunn. At this moment he is talking to Norma Bianchi, who is blowing plastic bubbles at the dime store. In her spare time she writes detective stories for the NScream Magazine.N Her old side-kick, Ruth Hesseltine, just arrived from Arizona where she is the world's champion bronc rider and calf roper. Bob Leonard now owns the famous gambling Casino at Monte Carlo where you can see him every night behind the roulette wheel, sideburns and all-- HStickie-fingers Bohn they call him. Marv Boston now owns Thrift Way, Inc. where he gives away a package of gum when his customers have been faithful for ten years. We just received ours! Here comes Shirley Orr who has gained no little fame by having quintu- plets, the first quints since the Dionnes. Dort Crowell is now the manager of the Globe Trotters, and a very successful team it is. Jim Gilligan is the head garbage collector for Washington C. C., and believe me, there is a large amount of garbage. He also delivers special letters for the White House. and look who's in the White House! It's Betty Olsasky the first woman president of the United States. And naturally her chief of Staff is none other than our own General Robert Harvey who saved the world from World War III, when he took General McArthur's placejJ1Korea, Also, we all admire Betty greatly for the way she handled Russia--marrying Joe Stalin was a stroke of genius. Well, if here isn't NBugsH Baker CLarryJ who took over Mickie Cohen's place as Lord of the Underworld. You remember that Police Chief Anderson shot Mickie when he tried to escape from Jail. Jim got his basic training in Mr. Smith's Government class. We had a hard time getting Howard Stifel to say he would come, he didn't think it was proper since he was the President honor. We expect Walter Robinette hereif'he can get to be seen at the reunion of Alcoholics Anonymous--this he considers a high away from his many fans. He is the leading crooner of the nation. The fried chickens for this celebration were donated by Gladys Boyer from her huge chicken ranch in western Wyoming. In her spare time she colors Easter eggs. Look who's coming Gorgeous Gene Tasler, no less. television, and of course, his has taught himahJ.he knows--His in now! See the long curls and velvet robe-- We are told he makes millions wrestling on manager is with him. Believe me his manager manager? Why,Dot Mosier, his wife, naturally Alda Strieff is perhaps the most dignified of our alumni. She runs a home for homeless dogs and cats in Paris. And our friend, Richard Howley, is here, too. Of course you saw his picture in Look Magazine when he took over the presidency of Sweetheart Soap Company. They say he's really cleaning up! Margaret Foshe has been here waiting for us for quite some time. You knew that she took Mrs. Varner's place teaching Shorthand. She really is terrific. Shirley Danielson has made quite a business flying mountain goats from Calcutta India to Moscow. Phe-e-ew!!! here she comes now. Oh yes, here's our friend Sallie You've read her column in and last our construction construction. The sign on on terms. See Hummel, the Well, all enthusiasm, so chicken left. Stirts. She too, is quite a celebrity. Perhaps the New York Times--Sallie's Advice to the Men. engineer, Nancy Hummel. She specializes in bridge her door reads, Painless Hummel. Teeth extracted Humane, today. are here, and gathered around the table with their old-time we had better make an end to this or there won't be any fried DM ---- SS
