illu' Alarm Senior Class Prophecy BANG! A brick-bat sailed through a plate glass window on which was the sign, Clinton’s Delicatessen Shop. The man who threw the brick-bat was running down the street just barely out of sight. As he dodged behind a lamp post he was seized by a policeman. The policeman discovered that the criminal was no other than Kenneth Blackmer and, at the same time the convict recognized the policeman as Glenn Swan. There they stood, face to face, two former class mates. What was He to do? The voice of duty beat strong in his ears, but he made a quick decision and taking a firm hold on the collar of Kenneth, hustled him off to the police station. There he was brought face to face with the Chief of Police, who was none other than Ruby Adams. In a cold, stern, impersonal voice she said that he was to be taken to court.

Ah! the world is full of contrasts. We would have little thought she would have treated him in such a manner. While they were waiting they heard sweet strains of music from the street. Upon looking they beheld an organ-grinder, whom they recognized as Gwendolyn Czech. In a few minutes Clara Heurlin came along. Wow! What a fight! This was certainly a surprise to us. Martha Johnson got tired waiting around until her beau at Thomas got a marriage license, and as she had succeeded in getting him to propose some time ago, and he had delayed getting it, she was attending to the matter herself. While they were waiting Helen Edlefson was brought into court for wearing a bathing suit which shocked the modesty of the public on the beach of Lake Michigan. Helen!! We are ashamed of you. Helen promised that she Pago Eighteen
