Kay you re»embar ua alwmya aa we will you. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Wa have hereunto subscribed our names this twenty flrat day of May, In the year of our Lord, One Thousand Nina Hundred and Forty Eight. CLASS PROPHECY A look in the futura. Wouldn't it be nice? Ten years ago the Senior Class of nineteen hundred and forty eight graduated and went out into the world to make a future for themselves. If anyone was to tell me that things were to turn out the way they have, I would have thought them crazy. After ten years, a person drifts away from school chums but doesn't forget them. San Francisco is a big city and quite to my surprise, when I entered a swank restaurant, I saw Tom Delaney waiting to be served. Tom was the old class president and hadn't changed at all. He was every inch the man of distinction. Tweeds, tailored topcoat and all to go with them. I casually walked over to him and handed out the haven't I seen you somewhere else line. After about six cups of coffee, two martinis, and a whole course of the restaurant's very best dinner, Tom and I decided that It was a pretty nice thing to meet up with an old buddy. Much to my surprise and pleasure, I found that Tom was a very successful business man. He owned two of the biggest trucking companies In the northwest and was soon planning on expanding his business farther east. When Tom asked me to come up and meet the missus, I readily accepted. Up till this time, he hadn't mentioned the fact that he was married. I was more than surprised and quite happy when I finally met her. When we walked into the spacious living room of the Delaney's, their Bay home took my breath away. I found my old girl friend Jacque, sitting in front Of a huge fireplace holding a beautiful child of two; the child had blond hair and sultry green eyes. She was as sweet as you would suppose her to be. Jacque was president of several women's clubs and one of the leading socialites in San Francisco. Never had I seen anyone so completely contented with life. Tom and Jacque told me that they had seen Carroll Christianson when he was down that way racing. I hadn't known that Chris was one of the best Hot-Rod drivers in the business. They told me that only the month before he had won the title of King of the Hot-Rods . I guess that he is doing pretty well and isn't married at the time although he has been three times since he graduated from sehool. Tea, Chris was the leading sportsman and I would have liked to see him race only he was going to China to see if he could thrill the Chinese. I silently wished him good luck and wondered if the Chinese would ever be the same again.
