We are so engrossed that we hardly notice the activity on the platform before us josephine Aftcora, head of the Musical Majorettes, has just marched on the stage playing the new football song. Kick the Ball Over the Coal Posts. Barry. Or Your Name Will Be Mud. in honor of Barry The Toe ' Bechler who is seated somewhere in the audience, trying to hide his identity with a pair of smoked glasses and a black handle-bar mustache. We are startled to say the least when we see what looks like a refugee from an Injun reservation sitting calmly in the aisle wrapped in a gaudy red blanket. On closer inspection we see that it's Virgil Andy, star of the Indians baseball team, doing a little publicity stunt on the side. Generals Edward Sunyak and Ralph Czerwieniec have just entered (better late than never) accompanied by two ravishing blondes. Wonder where or how they met such lovelies? It must have been through David Janison's escort bureau, which is a huge success, we hear. Up in the mezzanine surrounded by five. ten. fifteen, no twenty Chinese children is Claudine Clough, our missionary, who has brought the children to America as exchange students. Doesn't that girl ever rest? The man standing at the stage door entrance with the crowd around him is Congressman Eugene McNamara. He seems to be doing a little advance campaigning for the next election. The two attractive dark-haired women who have just greeted him are Rosalie Galletti of the Ohio Galletti Telephone Company and Rose Mary Boyaggi. the famous concert pianist. Down from her secluded pent-house is Josephine Schmutzok on one of her rare social excursions. It is rumored that her paintings have brought her millions. Sitting unobtrusively in the back of the auditorium is Vivian Kadash, head of a world wide syndicated paper, who has come herself to cover this much talked about premiere; but as we watch her. she quietly slips out of her seat and leaves by a side exit. The show is over! We have been so busy looking for old friends that we have missed most of the performance. The deafening applause, however. as the stars come out for their twelfth curtain call, indicates that the show is a smash-hit. When you read this, it will be January 1948; and for the present we can only wish you a Happy New Year and loads of luck for the years to come. Of course the next decade will bring many changes in our lives, but keep the year 1958 in mind. Only then will we know whether the weary committee members had a dream or a nightmare on that November 1947 night. — Eighteen —

CLASS PROPHECY One afternoon recently the publicity committee spent a grueling four and a half hours trying to work out the class prophecy. We had little success and finally went home without completing anything. Imagine our surprise when the next morning at school we learned we all had dreamed the same thing. Remembering that old saying, Dreams come true.” we decided this dream might be a prophecy of the future; so we are recording it for you. The year is 1958. and we are extremely lucky to have secured tickets for the grand premiere of the widely advertised musical comedy. Virgie. Get Your Bow and Arrow.” written by the distinguished playwright, novelist, and poet. Violet Wawrzynski. who has recently returned from a public appearance in London. Making the change from the cinema to the legitimate stage is Virginia Zerbe, the charming and vivacious leading lady. The star comedian of the country, that lovable genial “Bob Hope” of this era. johnny Skibo. is her leading man. The place is jammed: all 20.000 seats of the new enlarged Hanna Theatre are filled, with hundreds of persons standing. All this is due to the superb salesmanship of john Babjak, President of the We‘11 Get You One Way or Another, So Why Not Buy Now Ticket Agency. We hope he doesn't forget to send twenty percent of the receipts to Sharon Sievert. who is head of the Ohio State Revenue Office. Hurrying backstage to renew old acquaintances after ten long years, we are swept along by a bevy of shapely chorus girls as they madly rush to find the head dancing mistress. Senorita Mary Ann Skorepa. After escaping from this mass of feminine pulchritude, we go on our way to see some of the other notables from every field who have banded together to make the show a hit. In the wardrobe room Madame Ruthie La Pcdlesak. the well-known Parisian dress designer, has outdone herself with her gorgeous costumes. Ziggy Sawicki has created some of the most beautiful sets that have ever been seen on any musical comedy stage. And to think he got his start at Lincoln High! In the orchestra pit directing the all-girl orchestra is Lincoln’s own Florence Potichny. For old times' sake her girls are wearing maroon and white uniforms. The distinguished looking woman with the worried look who is talking to Carol Cannon, the luscious new Hollywood starlet, is Alice Kabat of Kabat Women’s Bank of America. Miss Kabat is financing the show; but if rehearsals are any indication of success. Alice has nothing to worry about. A precedent in radio-television is being established tonight by those two great W's of radio. Weider and Wagner of station WWWW. They will make it possible for people all over the world to see the stars as they enter the theatre on this great night. Suddenly there falls upon our ears the sound of thunderous applause. The time has flown by and the first act is over; so we cautiously peek from behind the wings to see who in Who's Who” is in the audience. In the first row we see Arlena Pearlina Soskivinia and Edwardo Bobuls-kavich, those two great Met stars who are in town for the opening of the opera season. Sitting directly behind them is a dignified gentleman who must be Frederick Brunarski, that great scientist who has discovered the solution of the housing problem, a prefabricated house in capsule form. — Setnmte.en —
