Page Nineteen Class Prophecy REVUE OF A DECADE 11928-19381 which shall go down in the annals of the Motion Picture World. Presented at the Ed- ison-Roxie Theaters of which Mr. Hugh Johnson is Manager. This great chain of Theaters 'extends from Newcastle, Wyoming, to New York City, N. Y. Mr. Fred Wegher, Chief Assistant of Mr. Johnson, has been traveling the World over securing the most noted scenes of events during the decade. A NATURE OF THE EVENT: Unveiling of the Memorial given to Mr. Paul Gaido, first Trans-Pacific flyer, formerly of New- castle. The fame which the former flyer, Lindbergh received isn't even to be compared with the fame accorded to Gaido. The next scene is of Miss Reta Jones who has become a great essay- ist. She will read her famous series of essays on Lincoln and will be presented with the Medal which was made for her by an es- special Committee appointed by President William Ost, who has received great fame by discovering gold in the Black Hills around Newcastle, which resulted in his election to the Presidency. The Medal was made of some of the first nuggets which were discov- ered in the mine. After these two all-important events are over, there will be a dancing act given by the Ziegfield follies. The leading role was to have been taken by Miss Maurine Pleak but due to injuries sustained on account of the strenuous congratulation which she extended to Miss Reta Jones, she had to have her double, Miss Ila Hathaway, substitute for her. Miss lla Hathaway took the lead very gracefully and made the act a howling success. Part of this success was due to Miss Bea Bennett who de- signed the costumes. She is known the world over as the Paris Style designer. She has worked out a design to make a fat per- son look slim, and a tall person look short. ' The next event was rudely interrupted by two men carrying Mr. Ova Yemington in on a stretcher to submit to the 'first work of the famous nurse-Miss Gladys Pridgeon. Mr. Yeming- ton, who was testing his latest model, which was to exceed the Ford in speed, had me-t with this unfortunate accident.

Page Eighteen Senior Class Poem We will find a path, or make oneg We the Class of '28, When we leave Newcastle High School Will go forth to learn our fate. We shall scale the walls and turrets, Till we reach our highest aim. Onward! Upward! Tho we stumble! We shall keep on just the same. As we look we see but mountains, Overhung with treacherous rocks, With no path in sight to follow We'll trudge onward o'er the locks. We will find a path, or make oneg Tho the road be hard to climbg Up and o'er the hills and valleys Thru the trials and cares of Time. Q -Vina Hathaway

Page Twenty sung by Mr. Harold Grieves, who as you all know, has made Ai J olson sound like an organ grinder. In the next scene, we see Miss Louise Black who has taken the title away from Miss Gertrude Ederle. She broke the record by swimming the Channel in a wider part in less time. Then we were honored to have Miss Elizabeth Gaido, a world famed beauty, who has won the t-itle of Miss America make a personal appearance, as she is on her way to Hollywood to begin her famous screen career. Miss Margaret Brennan appeared in Person to give all present one of her famous magazines, entitled, Aunt Margaret's- Irish Wit. When President Ost came to honor us with his presence, he brought his secretary, Miss Madal-ine Massoglia, along with him. Miss Massoglia has established a new speed record in typing at 150 words per minute. She will also make a display of the many medals which she has won. There will also be a short speech by Miss Vina Hathaway, who travels over the World promoting Girls Basket Ball Tourna- ments, assisted by Miss Pearl Pridgeon, the famous girls Basket Ball referee. Next appear two handsome brune-ttes who are Mr. Parm Pic- kle and Mr. Joe Mihalski, who have with them a very peculiar looking bird which is a cross between an ostrich and a chicken. Mr. Pickle assures us that it lays quite the most delicious egg he has ever tasted. Next, we have Mr. Keith Mead demonstrating the Kanga- roo Hop which originated in Newcastle back in '28, This dance, which he was so long in perfecting, goes over with a BANG. Mr. James Townley's manager announces his challenge to Gene Tunney. This bout between Townley and Tunn-ey will take place next fall-but there is no doubt but what Townley will take the Championship title away from Tunney, who has held it for a number of years. Miss Irma Bacon, Miss Dena Perino, and Miss Nellie Walk- er are among the great workers of the world. They are represen- tatives of the Women of the World in gaining their place in busi- ness and have succeeded in doing much towards making a higher standing for women in the business world. They are also trying
