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

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 ,
