Woman Wrestler, will donate gate receipts of tonight's bout to the Disabled women Wrestlers' Relief fundln On the same page was a picture of Morgan Qhilds, who had become world famous by being the only athlete who can chin himself on the crossbar simultaneously 9999 times, and play a game of checkers. The scene changed and next appeared Thomas nTom- Catn Monahan, his clarinet and his orchestra, ifcaturlng Barbara Vancelette, swing songstress outstanding. Sud- denly the crystal was filled with the faces of hundreds! thousands! of crying babies. nWhat's thisln I exclaimed. Then I knew. There standing in the center of all these crying infants was Donal Hennessy. Yes, it was the Hennessy Home for Orphaned Ba es. Before the scene disappeared, I saw a group of nurses chatting. On closer inspection, I was pleasantly surprised to see So hie Hucko, Mary Thompson, Barbara Falk, and Arlene W5gTi'56'ci?f 'v7ho mia.. a5wEsa'sCma1fffa5ffafsaas staff areas Hennessy Institution. The crystal ball I had purchased was really working overtime now, for the next scene took me to the office of Arthur LaMotte, noted business tycoon and big wig of Wall Street. As my eyes scanned the office I saw Felice Desrosiers, private secretary to Arthur, talking to 3ames Do Ie, head of the United Scrappy Steel Corpora- tion who was calling on Arthur to join him in a game of dominoes. J In a moment this scene vanished and I found myself looking at the city of Rochdale. The whole populace was at the railroad station to await the arrival of Barbara and Qatherine Donahue, who have become famous dramatic stars on Broadway, and intend to play an unlimited engagement at the Leicester Town Hall, just a few miles from the city of Rochdale. On hand to welcome these notables was a committee of fellow classmates of theirs. Those present were gary Watson, head of the Little Theatre Group in Leieesterg Eng Buvdenovich, Dramatic Critic of the Cherry Valley Courier, and helen Bapon, Secretary to the Mayor of Rochdale. As I looked for'tHe Mayor I found that he was George Gleick, my old class- mate, and by his side was'Roeer dunyan, Radio announcer for station R. O. C. H., interview ng His Honor the Mayor. . . This pleasant scene disappeared and was replaced by an interior view of the broadcasting studio. Before a microphone was Qpnstance Desautels and 'her all .girl orchestra.

We .,.,.,,,, l v r E Q Ll out Barbara Stone playing the clarinet. Playing the tuba' I saw Grace Benson and ably carrying the string accempanimedtm Q5 the violins were Qladys Griffin and Irene hills. Helen Magitalo handled the drums with ease and Anna Sphliker sallied forth with trumpet solos. Next to appeardbefore the microphone were Mary Wood, Marjorie Flint and Barbara Conwa famous irl trio whose specialty is thensinfing of barber shop Songs. My crystal ball was really hot now from overwork, so that I endeavored to get as much as I could from it. The next scene which came into view was one of ballroom dancers. As the scene became clearer I saw Qita Williams and Robert Fpley, dancers without equals, per- forming before a group of notables. As I looked over the distinguished guests my eye caught the familiar face of Donald Story, who was, I understood, the outstanding movie director of that stirring picture NTrader Hornen, starring george Horne in the title role. The picture is about a tra er who swaps his worn-out razor blades for a rare species of African bird which hops around on one giant leg. This interesting sight vanished and in its place-- Well, you'd never guess--Professor Qighard Qgnnincs of Harvard, Princeton, and Vassar, Professor of Sciences-- psychol08YS P. H. D. X. Y. Z. W. P. A. and O. P. H. who was addressing a group of noted research students at Worcester State Teachers College. While Prof. Jennings spoke, I looked over his vast audience and found many classmates of mine there. They were: Karion Thalin, Sciencesg Marion yichalak and gang Adagqwiga, office statisticiansg and Qohn food, Judge of'Human Relations Court. As I moved my hand to close the scene an image came into view. It was Bevcrli Sottak addressing the Leicester High School sen1EFIIETgsE'TEf' 1967. With a clear charming voice I heard her say, UNow Students, when making a year book you should--.U Suddenly there was a great flash and with a puff of smoke my crystal had disappeared. The prophesy of my classmates was over. As I unwound my turban from my head I looked out of my apartment window. As I did, a white ambulance with bars for a door pulled up. Two men dressed in white jumped out and looked up to the window where I was. With a shout they exclaimed, uThere he is--get the jacketln I wonder what they mean?
