SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY OF 1948-1949 fTen years after graduation, ' As I sit gazing into the fireplace, I am growing sleepy. Here I am, supposed to write the prophecy for the Senior Class of 1949. Goodness, how do I know what they will be doing ten years from now? Those dancing flames don't give me any ideas and I have looked at this crystal ball for hours and I still don't see a thing. I wonder how the gypsy woman does it? Well, I mustn't go to sleep as I shall have to write something down. Where am I? My, how things have changed. I wonder how I got down town. Well, anyway, there is my car and I might as well be at home helping Mother. Now, I know it's Little Sioux, and here comes Nina Jones down the street pushing a baby carriage. Nina first spent a year taking a beauty course so she could be ready for any financial em- ergency. She married Douglas Burns the June after fin- ishing the beauty course, and now enjoys her homemaking. She and Douglas have a fine baby boy, Douglas Jr. Nina lives at the Burns' Home where she takes care of Douglas' Mother. No more River Sioux for Nina. Well, there she goes into Alton's store for her groceries. Guess I'1l turn on the car radio and see what is on. Ah! There's the latest song hit, andy my favorite, too. I wonder who the singer is. She has a very nice voice and surely sounds familiar. Well, for goodness sake, it's Ramona Gahm. So she finally got to New York and has be- come a successful radio star! The papers say she may be another .Tudy Canova. Her mother says that Ramona has finally decided to marry that wealthy cream station magnet Eddie Johnson. Good luck to you, Rarnona. Maybe I should run out and see how Esta is while I am in town. She and Edmond McDaniel farm the Harry Baldwin place now that Baldwins have moved to town. Esta married Edmond in June of 1950 and they have a nice home and two lovely children, Edmond Jr. and Louise. The McDaniel family just recently returned from a vacation in Florida. Esta said she enjoyed it very much, but there is just no place like Iowa and home. Esta and Ed are driving their new 1959 Nash. It's really a beautiful car. They were able to discard Ed's Ford finally. It was quite a relic. 32
