PROPHECY OF THE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF ’36 Good afternoon, Miss McElroy. I am a reporter fiom the New York Times. I understand you have spent the past year traveling extensively, visiting you- former pupils of the class of ’36 from the Montrcat High School, and I would like an interview with you concerning the happenings of these girls during the past ten years. Do you have a seat. 1 am delighted to give you this in- terview. Here is an alphabetical list of the girls and if you will read them out as I go along it will make it much easier for me to recount to you my journeying to and from throughout all the earth trying to see them all. “First on your list is VIRGINIA ACKISS. “Oh! Virginia married a French count and is living in France where she thrives on grape juice and chocolate-coated graham crackers.” “RUTH BELL? “Ruth won the Pulitzer Prize this year upon the publica- tion of the diary of her private life. Next? ROSA BELL.” Poor Rosa contracted sleeping sickness on a tour around the world, and 1 left her sweetly dreaming in Bombay. JANET CARLISLE?” Janet is in business, and her industry is flourishing. She is the Manager-in-Chief of THE BOSTON MATRIMON- IAL BUREAU. What about ELIZABETH CHEEK?” Lib made the international debating team and gives lec- tures on the liabilities of the educational system.” GUELDA HUCKABY.” That, my dear fellow, is the maiden name of the first lady of our land and the best dressed woman in Washington ” And MELVA HUCKABY?” Melva is a missionary in Africa where she takes great de- light in singing lullabies to the little black babies.

The last is PHYLLIS STEVENS.” “The poor girl was taken to an asylum after a mental breakdown following a post-graduate course in geometry. 1 certainly do appreciate this interesting account, Miss Mc- Elroy, and be sure to read next Sunday’s edition of the Times. Good afternoon.” Rosa Bell, Class Prophet.
