Class Prophecy Saturday, June 2, 1950: Well, little diary, it has been a long time since I last consulted your pages. You will forgive me, I know, when I tell you of Mary Levak’s and my experiences at the Cleveland Century of Progress Exposition. (Mary is cap- tain of the world’s champion women’s basketball team.) The Exposition was opened by Theodore Heinrich who was president of the class of 84. Besides being Speaker of the House, Ted is famous for his many poems and essays. He and Keith Neuman are still pals; they are plan- TungTo run for Preident and Vice President respectively at the next election. One of the main features of the Exposition is an electrical maid that Keith has improved. It cooks your dinner to perfection, serves it, and says “Yes ma’am” when you scold it. As we entered the fair grounds, we were greeted by Theodore Corle who was selling tickets and answering a million questions at once. Just as we were handing our tickets to Ted, we heard a hearty laugh behind us. We'turned around just in time to see Georgia Easterbrook, who is now the world’s cham- pion swimmer, laugh at one of Dick Marsh’s numerous jokes. He has had a contract with the Fox Movie Corporation ever since he graduated from Madi- son High. We walked into the Hall of Science and there we saw Professor William Gabor explaining the life cycle of a flea to a group of awed old maids. We listened to the remainder of his lecture and at its conclusion William in- formed us that he is now a professor of Biology of Chicago University. Upon inquiry, he told us that his brother, Edward, is an announcer for the National Broadcasting Corporation. He is the highest paid announcer on the staff. In another part of the building, Louis Kellogg was telling an enthusiastic audience of his wonderful radio. Besides having television, this radio auto- matically shuts itself off when there is any advertising or when a boring speech is given. In the House of Religion, alter Ferguson wras delivering an inspiring sermon to his foot-sore audience. Walter seemed glad to see us and asked us to come to the rest of his series of talks. He is now the most famous evan- gelist in the United States. Over in the Agriculture Building, we saw Ed Havlor explaining a marvel- ous exhibit presented by the Green-Garret Dairy Farm. Maree Fomev and Elinor Johnson had charge of the Ville Francaise; Marec has been teaching English in a French school for girls and Elinor has been dietician there. While we were discussing old times, we heard a gay, “Halloo-oo, girls,” come from somewhere. We looked and saw coming towards us Mary Louise Greenman followed bv several shy youngsters. She said, “How do you like my brood? There are my prize kindergarten pupils. We-ell, I never—. Here comes Hattie Strickler; she’s principal of the school where I teach.” Walking down the mid-way, we were stopped by a breathless salesman w ho convinced us to buy $15.00 worth of women’s jewelry in the latest mode.

Juniors The band blares! The footlights are on and there, up goes the curtain, giving vou vour first glance at the Junior Review of 1933-34. In the center of the stage are the class officers who are Philip Greene, President; Joseph Grgat, Vive President; Virginia Dawson, Secretary; and Harold Dunn, Treasurer. At the right we see the junior boys of the Foot- ball squad. There are Mert Brewster, Phil Greene, Dallas Gandy, Kd Gola, Otto Krhaeher, George Koren, Hud Whipple, and Russ Ford. There’s some of the football squad dissolving into the basketball team, and with a few additions and withdrawals, the juniors are again duly repre- sented bv Mert Brewster, Joe Grgat, Phil Greene, Russ Ford, Hud Whipple, and Pal Gola. See those sophisticated looking people on the left? They’re the juniors who have gained admission to the Scholarship Club. Caroline Henninge, Amelia Newby, Betty Mitchell, Dallas Candy, Joseph Grgat, and Adam Fabel. I presume vou have already noticed those people at the right who possess all the earmarks of stage troupers. They are the people who won the Ora- torical and Reading Contests. Rachel Krause won first honor in the Orations, with Dallas Candy placing third. Loraine Nash carried off first place in the Readings. In the Junior Review there are, of course, dances. First comes the Irish one for the School in March. And then the Junior-Senior Prom, with the elite of High School in attendance. Harold Dunn ’35 twelve
