Evelyn Gould, by special arrangement with the trustees, will study agriculture at Bowdoin College. After leaving Bowdoin, Miss Gould will establish a large poultry farm in Palmyra. She will be very successful even though she has a competitor in her next-door neighbor. Perhaps the neighbor doesn't want to remain a competitor! Bit Stebbins will become the Number 1 box-oHice attraction for his acting in motion pictures. He will have a well-trained voice, very soft and alluring. Possibly he cultivated his voice in the M. C.I. serving room. Ben Matthews will finally accomplish the art of leaning on a shovel, by working for the W. P. A. After learning the fundamentals, he will become President Roosevelt's right-hand man. The Fates hestiate to relate Miss Olive Bagley's fortune, but perhaps she can take warning from this prophecy. She will marry a man who will become so crazed by her constant chatter that he will pay huge sums of money to secure a powder which will cause him to become totally deaf. Frank Hesdorfer will train for six months to relieve himself of excess baggage because a pilot needs to be in trim. Frank will be given a contract as soon as he finished this course, to fly school children from Burnham to Pittsfield Bill Frederick will seldom be seen from this time on because he is so much involved with his flowers. Bill won't be able to figure out geometri- cally why and when the leaves should fall. True to her name, Miss Doris Lyon will revert to the wilds in the summer time. She will hear the call of a certain fire ranger and in a few years will change her ferocious name and acquire a domestic title. Percy Almonte and Kenneth Ciancette will become partners in a thriving enterprise. We predict that it will be an ultra-modern bowling alle . Y Roger Davis will become principal of the West Overshoe Hi h School by popular vote of the school board. He will not be popular with tie students however, because he will become too serious-minded. Scientists say that this change will be caused by a blow on the head received while in the serving room at M. C. I. His favorite subject used in lecturing will be, Never be Funn . Y Miss Pauline Lawrence will become Mrs. Eugene Leroy Bailey. She will find herself very busy with domestic duties but she will manage to find time to lead a campaign for underprivileged girls who are obliged to live in dormitories. Normand Gott will receive a job as chief engineer on the miniature railroad, recently constructed in the Bangor Park for all kiddies between the ages of four and twelve. The president of this railroad will give him a little wooden whistle to complete his uniform. Alice Pendexter will become a member of the teaching staff at Miss Braley's Kindergarden for Toddling Tots. Perhaps Glenys can under- stand now why the teacher is always right. Ivan Callahan, that good-looking Romeo from Biddeford, will have a very unusaul occupationg he will be the sole owner of a sanitarium for women with broken hearts. Applications will be filed up to the year 2000. Lorraine Frost will have so many proposals for marriage that she will find great difficulty in deciding which one to accept. Incidentally, Lorraine will become the proprietor of Frost Diner For Homesick Soldiers. Perhaps there's something in that old saying, The way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Wayne Thurston will become a hermit and forever separate him- self from the outside world. He will claim that the world is cruel, and that he is tired of talking. Cecelia Nordstrom will receive a Master's Degree from Columbia University and will secure a position as Dean of Boys in a large New York 1241 ,

Dr. Cox has a jealous complex. His objective in visiting Alumni Hall is to as- certain if anyone has excelled his record for squirting water from the trusty faucet in suite 2. ja Ja mi-mi - Why Dave, I can't understand this-wait a minute-it's coming clearer. The Madame predicts that Janet Humphrey and Lea Lawrence will serve as Red Cross nurses in the Fiji Islands and will, after a period of four years, because of their great love for the islanders, renounce their citizenship in the United States and will speak only the language of the islanders. Stuart Noyes, our little preacher, will have rather a dark future ahead of him, for all we can see him doing is preaching in Harlem. He will also sell Aroostook potatoes as a sideline. Margaret Gosline will make fabulous sums of money during the next few years. She will take advantage of the tire rationing and give riding lessons. By 1950 Miss Gosline will be leading a life of leisure. Her only worry will be the large number of admirers which the matrin.onial agencies persist in sending to her. Bobby Bean will be the busiest undertaker ever in business in Newport because of an undetectable poison that he will purposely invent. He will also have a sign out in front of his oflice reading, R, W. Bean-Undertaker While You Wait. Herb Scribner will be known as Monsieur Hebret, and will bleccilme famous as a Fifth Avenue haberdasher. He will specialize in green c ot es. Irene Goodrich will, in a few years, find herself a great artist. She will paint portraits of the M. C. I. faculty of 1951, and one of these portraits, which she will call A Man and His Bicycle , will gain national fame. For john Freese the fates decree a most varied fortune. First he will conduct a frog farm in Limestone. Then, being disappointed in love, he will leave his farm to go to South Africa. Tiring of the feminine society of the dark ladies, he will return to New York where he will out-rival all members of Information Please. Doug Sinclair will finish repairing the damaged Normandie , and then alone will return it to France. We always knew that you understood boats, Doug . Arlene Frederick will own and operate a large beauty parlor. Aside from her reducing formulas she will become famous for a certain complexion cream known-as the Murray Preparation. Arlene will attribute the success of this cream to observations made during her senior year at M. C. I. of the complexion. Hans Muir will become an expert bouncer for all dance halls in Mexico and neighboring vicinities. He will gain a hundred pounds and grow six inches in order that he may fulfill his job. Dave Hall, the slightl' man of Suite 2 will become a portly gentleman. His cares will be many for he will be known as Lord Mayor of Madison. Most perplexing of all questions will be Where can I obtain tires for the baby carriages? Oh, Madame sees a bright future for Carolyn, who with a magic touch will drive all pain away. She will journey to many lands, will be feted and praised for her kind acts. She seems to be intensely interested in houses' but mostly in Halls. Kite Agostinelli will be head track coach at the Rumford Primary School. He will be a great health enthusiast, rising every morning at five o'clock and running for four or five miles. He will finally agree that bar- bells are the best muscle builders, when he sees what happened to Charles Atlas, after somebody stuck a pin in him. +123 if

gpys' School. Frequently Miss Nordstrom may be heard on Information ease. ' Wendell Towle will return to Pittsfield as M. C. I.'s principal. He will immediately put into effect his new course of Comic Magazine. Betty Campbell will become the head of a large psychopathic hospital with Miss Dorna Bryant acting as her secretary. Miss Campbell will make a special study on the following subject: Why do teachers form the great- est percentage of the inmates in Psychopathic Hospitals? After working strenuously for about four years, Miss Campbell will be advised to take a vac- ation in Hawaii for her health. Stuart Withers will take Nelson Eddy's place as an opera singer. He will have to have an extra large bathtub before he can expect best results. Ellen Lougee will become a water-girl for the Frederick Con- struction Company. Ellen will be very happy in this occupation, in fact, she will gladly work over time without additional salary. The Heffren-Humphrey duo will journey to Africa for some big- game hunting. As we see it now they will return with one jay bird, three field mice and a lame duck. Marguerite Taylor, after having trained for a nurse, will not be able to overcome her great desire to roller skate. Consequently, she will own a private rink which she will call- The Bob Inn . Madame is pleased to predict a most brilliant future for Charles Scribner. He will go to the South Sea Islands where he will become a noted authority on basketball rules for the natives. Elaine Enman and Rosalie Varnum will go down in history as being responsible for some drastic changes in women's clothing. The girls, on returning to Pittsfield in 1951, will head a parade advocating sports clothes for comfort. Rosalie, who will lead he parade in a bright-red gym suit, will trip gracefully from side to side as she dribbles a basketball. Miss Enman will follow in her latest creation, a complete man's suit designed to fit women. Bink Hammond will become president of the United States by a large majority of votes. Bink will make many changes since he being in office. One of his outstanding accomplishments is beginning his Sawdust Burner Chats with Brother Members instead of My Friends. Murphy will become a sports commentator as soon as he can overcome his impediment ofslow speech. He will also compose a famous national march entitled, Eastport Marches Along. Ah! What is this in the very bottom of the bowl? Why it is a note from Madame La La Chu Gum, with both of our names on the outside. Let's open it and see what else she has to say. This is the note: Dear Friendsg I am very much indebted to you for being so kind as to read my prophe- cies concerning this illustrious class. In my past life I can never recall any class or classes that have had such interesting futures. Please return the magic bowl to the enchanted belfry. Your friend of darkness, Madame La La Chu Gum l25lr
