CLASS PRCPHECY On my last yearly trip back to the states, I was fortunate enough to run into Bob Shelly, who was the new headmaster of the Johnsonian Institute fthe new name of the Norfolk Acad- emyl. Bob is running the school on the principle that a well-rounded boy is a good boy, and, therefore, makes each boy play with a round basketball seven bells a day. We both talked about Bob Hanckel and the Nobel Prize in electronics he had just been awarded the day before. It seems as though Hank got tired of taking of the attendance slips and perfected an electronic robot to do the work for him. George Grinnan was still working on his Doctor's degree. He had already attained at thirty-five years old, his MA, but was still griping. It was revealed that his mother was per- sisting in keeping him in on the weekends when he didn't get a good grade. Frank Jacobs has become the most famous of us. It seems that Mr. Mac got tired of his crummy themes and told him to go to '6England on a hot day in December. Jake went, and is now the Poet Laureate of England. Bob Wheeler had intended to study medicine but his patriotism got the best of him. Bob Shelly told me that he read of him in the newspaper just the other day. It seems that Bob decided to combine his career with Korea and became the first pilot to perform an appen- dectomy in a jet plane going six thousand miles an hour. Frank Moore was the disgrace of the whole class. It seems that on one of his many lec- ture tours, Frank described what would happen if Russia dared attack us. Unfortunately, a Communist agent was sitting in the audience, who forwarded the information to Russia. Russia attacked and Frank is now in Sing Sing. By the way, I'm living in Russia now. I got tired of hearing about the great satirists Pope and Swift and moved to a place where I could become a literary dictator too. From now on, you will kindly refer to the ages, as, the Ages of Pope, Johnson, and Cooper. LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT I, Charles Cooper, leave my pep rallies to any fifth former who is man enough to get a sore throat. I, Frank Moore, leave Mister Stirling's math courses to the other unfortunates who must take them. I, George Grinnan, leave my apple polishing seat in front of Mr. MacConochie's desk, to any boy in the fifth form who' is flunking so badly that he needs it. I, Robert Wheeler, leave my pair of clean white bucks to John Ryan, may he ever keep up the good tradition and polish them every night. I, Frank Allen Jacobs, leave to any boy in the fifth form my wordiness in answering questions, so that he may continue to frustrate the masters, especially Mr. Sperry. I, Robert Shelly, just found out that I flunked, and am not leaving after all. I, Robert Clower Hanckel, hereby leave to any boy in the fifth form a pair of thick-soled shoes in which to collect attendance slips. 14
