PROPHECY As time has marched on, the world has progressed and great achievements have been made. Recently, the first community was established on the moon. Among the population living in this glass covered town, the leading citizens are the Seniors of '63, As visitors to this town, our tour was conducted by Mayor Kenneth Kelly. In making our journey, the first stop was to the City Hall to visit the ambitious Sammy Pendley, who is now head janitor there. We saw the stenographers, Patricia Roberts and Martha Cauthern working happily in their new world. When we left, the Moon Monitor was our next stop where we met its lovely editor, Janelle Callan. Her paper, we found, to be in capable hands, as the Sports editor was Bobby Lane and the Women's section was managed by Judy Abbott. From the Monitor we proceeded down the street to the Pechal Bros. Feed Store owned by Frankie and Johnny Pechal. As we walked around inside, we saw manager Ronnie Tyl loading some feed on a truck headed for the BR Ranch owned by partners Rita Blanton and Bob Tinsley. Rita and Bob had recently won first place at the Harvest Earth Fair for their extraordinary Lunar Bull. We continued our tour and next visited the hospital. Receptionist, Peggy Walker, greeted us, and we were directed to the Soda Shop to relax and drink a malt. While here, we were served Satellite Sodas and Moon Malts by Barbara Hatchel and as we sat relaxing, the high school coach, James Spence limped by. Nurses, Georgia Het- mer and Judy Howell, were in the next booth. Dr. Ray Hall and head nurse Frances Rodriguez came in and joined us. In our conversation, they announced that Jamie Rand had won the Mobel Prize for the invention of the Moon- mobile. Mechanics Steve Archer and Johnny Bankston were also working on this type of car. Dr. Hall told of the recent success of four girls: Kay Myatt, Glenda Nalls, Linda Garn, and Marilyn Dees. These lovely girls had joined in the ownership of The Four night club, where they also served as performers. Kay Glenda, and Linda twirled their batons and Marilyn did the twist. Once a month, their special guest was Linda Norman, a famed vocalist, who had just released Shine on Harvest Earth and Earth River . Linda's success has been aided by her agent Roy Gardner. We paid the cashier, George Bailey, for our malts, and said good -by to the doctor and nurses. We left the hospital and proceeded toward the stores in town. Down the street, we saw Adair's Grocery Store on our left, owned by Grady Adair. Next was Duke and Ayres with Mary Baker Holcomb as the new manager. On the same street was the Beauty Bubble Beauty Shop operated by Gloria Bowman. Evelyn Pechal and Eva Flowers Hailey assisted Gloria in hair styling. Our last stop was made at the great Chemical Research Foundation where Brenda Melton was secretary to chemists, David Whittenburg and Johnny Knoerr. They were trying to find a way to grow vegetation on the Moon. We next went to the office of the very efficient Bettye Carlisle who was general manager of the Foundation. Hustle and bustle were in the air. It seemed as if Bettye had lost something and was searching for it. We went into the chemistry lab next door and found Dr. Larry Barnes frantically working on some plans which he changed everyday. We watched in silence and then were shocked when we found that the formulas and plans explaining how to return to Earth had been lost. Page 17
