CLASS PROPHECY Buzz-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-zI Buzz-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z: Well, Ifm coming! Buzz-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z! Oh, wait a minute...hello, WHO?? Mary Crabbs! Are- a-a- what a- where- (silence)--why, of course I'm home, all right, vou come straight here! Okey, good-by. Several minutes later— Knock, Kn— MARY! LOUISE! Naturally, they both talk at once, embrace each other, ask questions, and —well, just the usual things women do when they first meet after 35 years! Seems Louise has found that Mary has Just completed another triD around the world and Mary has already met Lduise's eight off-spring......let's eaves- drop, wanta'? Do you ever see any of the old gang, Louise? You know, I'm totally unin- formed about them all. Oh yes, you see Janet Kime, as you remember her name, lives on the farm next here; our children play together most of the time, then there is BStfcy Witmer; of course you know, both 3he and Janet were married right after they were graduated from N.O.H.S., and Betty has seven sweet children. You know, Louise, all the years Don Diehl arid Jack Harner were stars of their professional basketball teams, I followed their travels and victories in the papers. They even made headlines in foreign countries. Ish Harman also was in the limelight so long as he played baseball with the Yankees. I know, Mary, they were all tops! How about Wilbur Hildebrandc too— one of the most wealthy and successful men in the world. Louise, why don't you get your MEMENTO, then we can really reminisce? Swell idea, I'll get it; we'll be sure not to miss anyone this way. Oh, no one was surprised when Nancy Harner married that underclassman at school and they built a house right next to Mary Adams and her husband's. They have been together ever since. Louise, I'm sure that everyone who ever heard Jeanne Altland sing, knew she'd be the successful singer she is, and Norman's fame as a tenor was not unexpected either. That's right Mary; say, did I tell you, Edith Kinneman still designs all the dresses for the first ladies of the land, and I've heard that the presi- dent's wife won't ever let anyone style her hair except Doreene Clark! My,it must be wonderful to have such positions—but what about Peg Alwine and Loretta Baker?
