-.. in PROPHECY OF THE CLASS OF 1926 Ladies and gentlemen, this is Station L. H. S., Waterbury, Connecticut, Mae Mary Andrulis announcing. We have received so many phone calls, telegrams, and other messages compli- menting us on our travel-talks of 1922, 1923, 1924, and 1925, that we have decided to favor you with another tonight.
