MASS PRIIPHHIY As graduation was nearing, I began to wonder what the future held for each of the seniors, My curiosity became so great that I decided to go to the famous forttuie teller, Al1a'l-las Been, who sees all, tells all, and knows nothing. When I told her what my question was, she immediately took me into her mysterious quarters and prepared to look into her crystal ball, to tell me the future that lay in store for the class of '54, The first person to appear in Alla Has Been's crystal ball was none other than IANICE ELDER. To my surprise, she was supervisor of the children's ward in the New London Mercy Hospital, Next to appear in the crystal ball is KEN PUTNEY, assistant assistant to the Ninth Vice-President of the Ford Com- pany, GARY BLANCK, In the crystal ball we see Ken and Gary's new car, the New Fudge '98, painted the outstanding new color, chocolate mud. Suddenly the crystal ball clouded over and strange spiritual music came from above. It was JIM WlLKE'S millionth platter, entitled, I Love Me. I couldn't help admiring the fortune tel1er's orange and purple dotted kimono. Original design by the famous artists, PREHM and THORNTON. We saw VIRGINIA HUNT on one of her famous lecture tours based on her book, How to be Happy, Though Married, Next to appear in the crystal ball are two confused characters in coonskin caps, FLAM hunting HAUSNER and HAUSNER hunting FLAM. She again asked me if I would like to hear something from the spiritual world, There came a squeaky voice, which proved to be little MARILYN WRIGHT who had gotten stuck in a test tube at S. U. I. Next in vision is GOVERNOR VICE, now running for his tenth term as governor of Missouri, If elected, he is promis- ing bigger and better fish for the men and Moonshine and Roses for the women, Then all was quiet and I saw SHERRY PIPER and RUTH ANN KANNEGIESSER still unwrapping the tape off their first patient, who had entered the hospital ten years ago suffering from a hang nail. PROFESSOR UNDERWOOD has just received his ABC, CYC, and CIO degrees from Powder Puff University, a famous girls school. Then we came across BOB NICHOLS who followed through with his plan to become an F. B. I. agent, At the present he is investigating JACK BROWN on suspicion of posting bulletins on government property, which is a federal offense. All of a sudden I see a wolf in the crystal ball. Paying further attention, I realize it is DOROTHY KINNEY, now starring in Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf, Dot has the leading part, The Wolf, Next in the crystal ball is FRANK I-IOBBS who married the former Jeannie Wasson. They're now farming in Lowell, Iowa, Next comes YVONNE SMITH who at the present is making plans for her future marriage to one of the Rich brothers. Next we see CLEO CARTER who is now the permanent cage manager at NLHS, He even finds time to do a little coaching for the girls' team, Behold, what strange sight is this? asked Alla Has Been. As the vision becomes clearer, I find it to be CONNIE RITCHEY. In her spare time, Connie is teaching the younger residents of New London how to drive. With such expert teaching, we are sure there will be fewer accidents. To appear next in the crystal ball was a man in artist's clothing, standing beside his great masterpiece, Whistler's Father. We find this famous artist to be KENNETH RHODES, Now we see LEON McNEIL who is busy getting ready to divorce his fifth mistake, We come to DEE KUHLENBECK, who is a hair stylist for President Eisenhower's secretary, KAY HAMILTON. She is getting ready to give Kay her famous hair style, The Bush . Now we come to LARRY NELSON who spends all of his time shining the ball bats for the Yankees, Ah, and what do we have here ? None other than the famous LARRY RIEDEL who has taken over the late Al Capone's work in Chicago, His favorite gun moll at the present is the former LILA FARNSWORTH, who now goes by the name of Minnie the Bad, Now we have LARRY PENNEBAKER, who has made success in the entertainment world as a comedian. He has his own television show, called, Watch It Once, Last to appear is DICK DAVISON, who has never married, At the present he's head of the Home for Old Maids, This brings to a close our look into the future lives of the class of '54, On behalf of the Junior Class I would like to say Good luck to you Seniors of '54, 16
