We made our first public appearance at a junior high initiation party.

Life is divided into three great periods: the past, the present, the future. The past, with its many happy days of freedom from care, is behind you. It is now only a succession of beautiful memories that, in years to come, we shall love to recall. The present, with its petty trials, its days of study and play, of triumph and disappointment, is with you now, but the great unknown future stretches out be- fore you. an untravelled road, filled with—you know not what. Perhaps it is great joy and success; perhaps sorrow and disappointment; perhaps wealth; perhaps poverty: perhaps fame. You go forward with, as it were, your eyes blindfolded, travelling the great road of life, each step opening up something new, something unexpected. But I, with my mystic power, can unfold that future to you and give a brief glimpse of this class, thirty years from today. Then you can judge for yourselves the paths eacn one has travelled, the efforts each one has made. Listen well, oh. Class of 1951! Give heed to these words of mystic wisdom, as the future is revealed. We are in a court house where the noted judge. Zane Fraker, is ready to try a criminal case. Now the scene changes to a secluded section of McConnellsburg where Marian Wible is occupied in the home she founded for cats. She seems to be very happy about this vocation. I see two girls, Carolyn Buterbaugh and Betty Mellott, who seem to be zoom- ing through the air. They are—as stewardesses on a plane. to begin a dangerous operation to remove a pair of false teeth from a patient who had a slight case of dental trouble. I behold the Vice-President of this great country who appears to be a fellow classmate. It’s Andrew Howell! I can now vision a country church where the minister is going to begin his sermon. Who is the preacher? It seems to be—it is—Donald Culler! A teacher now comes into the picture. She looks very well contented, play- ing “Farmer in the Dell with the children. ’Tis Verna Buterbaugh. I see a large reception room where are found Edna Bain and Fay Welsh, who are both married to wealthy and successful businessmen. O mystic ball, from out thy depths. The future to this class reveal. Thy knowledge, hidden deep from sight. Pray give us now, and naught conceal. 1 see now an operating room. Frank Mellott, the famous surgeon, is ready (Continued on the Following Page) r 0 HH3J : 1X3 rxz ixt—fxz rxr—pa r a FLASH - LITES : 2XZ2xi=3XZ«� !xoxz r ci ixi 0 i__i_J= HZJ The Crystal Qazer (Continued from the Preceding Page) South America is now coming into view, with Homer Peck in the picture as a civil engineer. Wayne Sipes is just going on the air at W. C. H. A., singing his favorite— “Mule Train.” Here is the great land of Turkey, where Naomi Wildoner and Martha Bar- mont are Red Cross nurses. I note large banners and many animals. A blond lion tamer is putting on his act. Cheers ring out for Harry Bain. I see two happy homes where little children are playing under the watchful eyes cf their mothers, the one-time Mary Edna Bivens and Dons Garland. A school building comes into focus and there is Ira Bain, the county superin- tendent. attending a very important meeting to decide whether the school needs a new helicopter for fast travelling. I now see a basketball bench where two rival coaches are talking frantically to their teams. They are Jack Fields. Yale coach, and Bill Morton, coach at Annapolis. Another member of this class seems to be present as an onlooker, Earl Mellott, coach of Notre Dame. Shirley Christian is entering a restaurant in Paris, where the chef is Harold Lininger. She is wearing one of her own Paris creations. We travel across the sea to China where we find Audrey Glee in the school she founded for girls. I see a travelling salesman ringing the doorbell of an impressive looking house—Dick Linn. What is that he is showing his customers? It is real silk under- wear. I see a large group of men. They are under the direction of General Robert Akers of the U. S. Army. We come to an art gallery where some of the portraits of Mona Humbert, the famous painter, are on display. Kate Bivens, who could never make up her mind to marry even one of her admirers, is working hard on her lecture, “The Supremacy of the Female over the Male.” A great concert hall, filled to overflowing, comes into view. The famous prima donna. Madame Lavonne Cline, is singing. Her own private orchestra is con- ducted by Evelyn Bivens. Now the ball is growing dim but I see Bonnie Cutchall in her stately mansion receiving her guests. Dimmer and dimmer grows the ball. Its message is over, and I, too, will say to you my farewell message. ‘ Peace—Happiness—Good Bye.” 951 «hhixi_ r a s hct xxn 2xi 1X2 ixnux X5=nxir ci FLASH '� 5' LITES ; t rsrr ♦� :o � ZXZ LX5ZZZXZ ♦� 3X$ZZ2XI E2 OXO� 3 : 3ZR2 C r .s;s rv 952 First Row:—Edna Gordon, Dolly Tritle, Betty Morton, Wilma Snyder.
