THE CLASS PROPHECY OF 1947 The Doctor Tdlces cc Case As our scene opens we see three frantic ligures hurrying up the steps of a well- known hospital. They appear to be three girls, two! supporting the other who has her head tied with quite a few bandages. They burst into the office of the Chief Intern and the two girls hurriedly explained to the nurse in charge that they must see the Intern. The doctor is called, and upon en- tering and examining the girl in the injured condition he turns to the other girls and shakes his head. The two other girls look pleadingly at the doctor, and exclaim, Doc- tor, tell us what's wrong? Nothing serious we hope. The doctor replies in a sober voice, Yes, my dears, I'm afraid she has developed Futurobiaf' . The three girls are horrified, Oh, doctor! they cry, tell us what will happen. The doctor shrugs his shoulders and says, There is nothing we can do for her, she will eventually come out of it. All we can do now is just sit and wait for her to start telling our future. What, the girls exclaim. Why yes, she'll be able to tell you everything that will happen in the year her mind has lapsed to. W'ith a wondering look one of the girls says, I wonder if she could tell us where our class will be in 1970. They're graduating tonight. 'tWhy don't you ask, the doctor says. The girls ask the patient, and in a clear voice this is what she replies: I see l'w'l'LL'lLC6S Ethereclye with 37 kids . . . teaching art at Maury High School. l can see a small white object in Deuniis Uu.tlz.'rell's hand. He winds up and makes a direct shot with the bag of peanuts which is caught by his customer in the third row at the Stadium where the World Series is being played. Clwrence Jonas is pitching for the Norfolk Tars. I can see Norma F'G'I'l'6ll and E'stlLe-r Lee up to their necks in dough . . . as they're making doughnuts for their new factory which specializes in Pre-dunked Dough- nuts. lt seems if Robert Need has set the world aglow, as he has just finished a me- chanical Richard to open that door. Claudia Hmuch is in the hospital with a broken leg from trying to be too good a traveling salesman. The accident occurred when Mrs. Carlton McCustin slammed the door on him.
