Senior Class Prophecy One beautiful evening my best girl friend. NYanda Hull. and I decided to take a ride to pass the time away. She is better known as Mrs. I-larry Benedict. Her husband is a teacher of mathematics at the Mercersburg Academy, but he was at home taking care of their thrce little boys tonight. It was such a beautiful evening that I thought of romance and this brought june and Harry to my mind. They were always such lovebirds. They are now married and very happy. At present they are living in New York where june is an actress on Broadway and Harry has taken good advantage of his training in the office and is a successful business man. VVanda and I then decided to go to see a movie in Chambersburg. XYe purchased our tickets and were thoroughly amazed to tind Frances Robison in the box office. She said that she wanted us to meet her boss. which seemed strange to us. To our oven:- whelming astonishment. she brought Harold Frye over to us. Vte chatted for a few minutes and discovered that the theatre was just a sideline for Red as his specialty was operating a dancing school. He then politely ushered us to our seats. During' the intermission between the shows. there was a prelude of music by a well-known orchestra and when their star vocalist came out, he was none other than .lack Hill. I always knew that he would get somewhere with that voice of his. The lady next to me said that he was soon going to Chicago with the orchestra. I wish him luel . I remember that l-e helped a great deal as a goal keeper to win the soccer cup way lack in I9-I6--l7. The movie then began and. since it was a comedy. there were plenty of laughs. I heard two in the audience that sounded familiar-one that squeaked every now and then and I lcncw that it could be no other than Klilton Garnes and the other was Lhat of jolly XYilma Keyser. After the show was ended. I corneried them and inquired how they were. XYilma informed me that she owns and operates her own tlorist shop. She told me that Helen .Ximian and Betty I.amaster came in the other day and that it was the second time she has seen them since graduation. Helen and her heart-throb ai'e happily married and have a little Barbara and Garry. Betty. who was always l'Ielen's l-est friend, is married to a XYyoming cowboy and together thev own a horse ranch. Betty always loved horses as well as human beings. Betty had told XYilma that Dick and Don Hopkins are star baselfill players and are both married. Of course she would know I'-ecause they were all in the Filvirkes Gang. Finally Milton was able to get a word in edgewise in the conversation and I found out that he is studying to be a portrait painter. He was always drawing some kind of picture when he was in high school. He is still a bachelor but his high school pal, Raymond, is married and has his own farm. On our way home we stopped .at the confectionery for a coke and collided in the doorway with Mr. and Mrs. Vvilliam Gingrich, Mrs. Gingrich being the former Mary I,on Schenck. She laughed when I told her that I couldn't imagine her as a settled housewife beoause she was always so active and had such a Flirtations 111211111012 They couldn't stay any longer becuse kloyce and her hubby were waiting for them in the car. She didn't tell the name of .loy's husband, but she said they call their son, .Iohn Malone, -lr. Going the rest of the way home, NYanda and I thought about our old school days and classmates at L. H. S. It was fascinating because things had changed so since then. VNV: are now living in the atomic and helicopter age and the students now travel to school in their own private helicopter. Although all this has happened. my class- mates have not entirely changed. Nathan Heckman has married his girl friend and is now farming. Mike Riley. one of the liest players in all sports, is still playing soccer and baseball. I-Ie has organized his own team called Riley's Riot Players and I hear that they haven't lost a game s0 far.
