Class Prophecy C f f ?ALKING home one day from my work as a file clerk at Dave Nelligan's Golf Ball Manu- Vy facturing Company, I noticed with interest a new establishment in the center of town. Amused by the sign “Fortunes Told”, I decided to be one of the fortune-teller's first custom- ers. What a surprise for me to see seated before the crystal ball--Mary Lou Massey who was recognizable even behind her dark veil. Coming out of my daze I chatted with her a few min- utes and then I requested her to gaze in her crystal ball and tell me what all my old classmates of Madison High are now doing. This is what she told me. In a new hospital financed by wealthy philanthropist, Alva Shahan, are nurses Peggy Shane and Karen Cone, and medical technologist, Mary Jane Watson. Classmates who joined the sports world after graduation were Jack Austen and Bill Booth, pro football players, Jerry Hietenan, prize fighter, and Gordon Head, wrestler. Carolyn Sidley is doing wonders in the New York slum area as a socialogist where Stew Buchanan is building many new homes at low prices for the people. Band leader Howard Donaldson and vocalist Dave Buchanan are touring the country, and are now at the Copa Banana, owned by A1 Olsen. Mary Wright is employed there also as a hat-check girl. Helen Hummel has been engaged to paint portrait of President “Honest” Jack Finley, the shortest president ever to occupy the White House. Secretary of the Treasury, Lee Stewart announced that since “Honest Jack” was inaugurated their National debt has been paid off and the United States is finally making money. Gloria Luikart has recently made her debut as pianist in the All-Girl Orchestra. The famous animal Clinic of West, Klingbeil and Branicky has recently announced that they are specializing in French poodles. Mary Bukky, famous beautician has been giving the dogs “poodle cuts” and manicures. Naomi Harvey, missionary penetrated the deepest part of Africa only to find Jerry Hejduck, expeditionist, there to meet her. He informed her that he was searching for a zooliculeturial bug. Of special interest to all the people who are plagued by the bite of the zooliculeturial bug is the discovery of serum X60 by Tom Urso. Tom announced if the serum is applied immedi- ately after the bite one’s chances of living are greatly increased. Wealthy Florida manufacturer Mary Ann Dynes' private secretary Eileen Shinsky, revealed today that their company will make the serum available to the public as soon as possible. The first feature picture to be shown this year at the new Warren Prince Theatre in Chi- cago is “Private Secretary” starring Norma Morgan and character actor Robert Hayes. Much public claim has been given to newspaper reporter Nancy Roth for aiding F.B.I. Chief Jerry Mier in recovering the $30, 000 stolen from Don Mitzell’s Self-Service Station. Tom Throop's latest book “The Tallest Tales” has become an overnight best-seller. The novel is of such simplicity and sincerity that the reader is compelled to read it from cover to cover before laying it aside. The dude ranch of Texan Ray Peters has been attracting vacationers from far and wide. Among the dudes visiting there now are JoAnne Butler, Broadway actress, food connoisseur Walter Rooks, and hydrogen scientist Jim Kinkolph. Barbara Berta's manager, Shirley Johnson, announced to the press recently that the Ten- nis Champion will make a cross-country tour of the major cities very soon. All proceeds from the appearances will go to charity. My visit with the fortune teller over, I felt that I had never lost touch of my old classmates. Happy over the success of the class of '54, I walked home that night with much lighter steps. Alice Jones Happiness Always W. J. KEYSE INSURANCE Madison, O. DAVID V.
