CLASS PROPHECY It is 1958, ten years since graduation and some of us are gathered at Newark Valley International Airport whose building was engineered by the famous Jewett and Niefer Construction Company. We have abandoned our superfortress of 'L8 and have taken our seats on Keane's Moon-o-plane. Our plane is warming up and the stewardess, Sylvia Holden, is checking our safety belts. The passengers are chatting pleasantly about experiences of the past years. Among them are Joyce Kellam and Patsy Cutting, the travelers, on their way to their dude ranch in Arizona. There are several housewives among the passengers, namely, Arlene Latier Cortright, Minnie Thornton Brill, Beverly Jewett lDavisl, Betty Mills CDaveyJ, Monna Pollard KAndersonJ, Hattie Hines lRhodesJ and Thelma Holmes K?J. They are on their way to attend the first class at Cornell's new child clinic. Allan Ardell has finished school, quit hitch-hiking and now is one of our passengers on his way to Hollywood, Ito stand on the corner of Hollywood and Vinei. Russell Jackson, the super salesman, is travelling with him, he is sell- ing lady's colored plastic pipes as well as his good looks. Now our ship has levelled off after a smooth, fast take-off and we are floating over beautiful, forested hills and orderly farms. That one belongs to Donald Yescavage. There's Carl Brink's, David Rabenstein's and Floyd Wade's. We are now over Berkshire and can see The Simmons and Woodmansee Hatchery. There is Erwin Sharp's artificial breeding farm over that way, too. We are now practically over Ithaca. That little black bug down there must be Philip Barden's new 1958 Kaiser. We leave Ithaca after having our plane checked by Robert Snavely, mechanic, and losing some of our passengers. The oo-pilot has taken over and we see our pilot for the first time--none other than Leonard Cole. He is strolling through the plane with the book, 'How to Fly in Twenty Easy Lessonsu, under his arm. One of the passengers gasps and faints. Carol Schirrmacher, now a trained nurse helps to revive her and we see stat it is Martha Dean, the rich, pretty secretary of Van Johnson. As Martha is chatting with us, we find that Mary Signs is the private secretary for the Chandler and Briggs tool shop. Julia Signs has taken a special course at Col- umbia University and is now the head of the personnel department of the Standard Oil Company. Leon Pastalan has graduated from West Point and is now coach of the Army's football team. The team is enroute to play Navy whose coach is now Howard Hort- on, a veteran in league football. Eugene Kobylarz is on the famous Cinderella basketball team of Utah University. After leaving Martha we settle down in a seat to read the New York Times. We see in the society column that Daniel Kubrack is a retired millionaire at the age of twenty-eight Kgood going, hm, hml. Phyllis Needham is now recept- ionist at the Stork Club. As we turn to the ad section we come across Gerald Strope's advertisements of his greenhouse and flower shops in several of the large cities. In the Binghamton news is the final write up about the I. B. M. disaster where the foreman Paul Thompson, through his quick thinking and coolness saved the lives of sixty-four of his fellow workers. Another news from item that interests us very much, is that Flora Panas has refused a teaching position at North High to get married. Glancing on farther we find that Evelyn Rose is a telephone operator in Buffalo. We are now over the airport in San Francisco, we get our landing direction from the tower, which is operated by Francis Snavely. We swoop down like a graceful sea gull making a perfect landing. The passengers hurry off to various parts of the city. The reporters rush out to meet our celebrated Harry Andersen, the magician lwatch the rabbit as he tips his hatl.

C. at 5:00 A. M. We stopped at Harrisburg and visited the Educational Building and Capitol. We went on to Gettysburg where we stopped at the hotel for luncheon. After every one was on the bus we took a two-hour tour of the battlefield with a gulde showing us the high spots. Upon our return we left the guide and continued on to Washington. Despite the olgar smoke we all arrived at our hotel at 6:00 P. M. Our first desire was to eat. Everyone rushed to his room, unpacked, cleaned up and rushed for food. After dinner we went ln for big business. We went to the ConZP9BS10HB1 Library. There many couples mated and then went out for a movie. Omlttlng the pillow fight we all went to sleep fast that night except the girls ln Thelma's room, of course Gerry was on the trip so she had to do her hair up so the rest of the girls could not get to sleep till she got ln bed.
