Arlene, Elaine, and Patricia are private detectives in their spare time. They have established a firm classed WHAP, Inc. The city police department is trying to force them to go out of business. Somehow they always get the innocent people into more trouble than the guilty ones. Joyce, Brenda, and Betty are models for Vogue. They seem to have a lot of luck in getting free trips abroad-last year they went all the way across New York Bay by ferry. ' Over on Broadway we found Nadine Helms. Nadine has become the best known redhead since Lucille Ball. At the Metropolitan we found Judy Hill who has become a very famous singer. Judy has recently returned from a tour of France. While in Paris she saw Wayne Cole and Jimmy Allred. Wayne, she told us, has become one of the most famous hair stylists in the world. Men from every country travel to Paris to let Wayne style their hair. Jimmy Allred had taken over the Dior House. He designs women ' s clothes. He changed the name of the very famous fashion house from Dior to Jimmy ' s Originals. Jimmy had recently made wearing sequined weejuns with semi-formal gowns stylish. On the way from New York to Hollywood we stopped off at the Juliard School of Music where we found Elaine Huneycutt. Elaine recently married the famous Van Cliburn. She said that she never sees him but she has his baby grand to keep her company. In Hollywood, Ronnie Watson had just completed a movie called I Was A Teen-Age Molecule. The movie is about a typical teenager who drives a hot rod and has a wild voice. Soon his talent is discovered and he becomes a teenage idol. He is stabbed at the end of the picture by a jealous girlfriend. Interesting? Sonny Parker was the writer and director of this picture. This was his second movie. The first one, entitled Meanwhile, Back in Alaska , cleared over six hundred million dollars. The studio received this money from Texas for not showing it. The Texans were afraid that everybody that saw it would move to Alaska. The beauticians in the Metro Studio were Linda Hudson, Linda Gale Lunsford, and Virginia Carol Spivey. These girls are famous for many new hair styles. The most popular of these styles is called the Baby Look. This new style is the easiest in the world to manage. You see, they shave your head and you look like a baby. Now, that ' s style, isn ' t it? The real baby doll of movies is our own little Loraine Harkey. Loraine is greatly publicized as the sweetest and quietest movie queen that ever came out of Hollywood. Loraine has made several tremendously successful movies. All of these pictures have been about a dog. Loraine always was close to Comet! At Malibu, California, we found two more ' 63 graduates. At any time of the day you ' ll find Debbie Morgan on the beach painting. Debbie has recently sold a portrait called the Modern Mona Lisa. The only difference in the Modern Mona Lisa and the Original Mona Lisa is that the modern one doesn ' t have a mysterious smile. As a matter of fact, she doesn ' t have a smile at all. This is simply because she doesn ' t have a mouth. Debbie ' s model for this picture talked all the time, so she painted her mouth shutJ The other ' 63 graduate in Malibu is Joan Bizuk. Joan is a professional skin diver. She dives every day trying to find some kind of whale skin. She is trying to prove that whales shed. We now traveled toward the east making our first stop in Las Vegas, Nevada. Here Paul Laton is employed as a certified public accountant for the city. Henry Caudle and Joey Cresswell were in this city, too. They are joint owners of a small casino. They only make about $2, 000 a week. On basketball nights, Henry flies to Duke to see the ball games. Since graduation he has played professionally with the Las Vegas Packers-but makes more money gambling. Gary Lowder also lives in Nevada. He has the biggest chicken ranch in the West. In Texas, Donnie Rummage has just uncovered the world ' s largest oil well. Donnie now drives a big Cadillac and swims in his six hundred foot swimming pool. Darrell Cody constructed Donnie ' s well, so he, too, is rolling in money. New Orleans is the home of several graduates. Sherry Burleson teaches English in the French Quarter. Nancy Poole teaches the first grade in one of the public schools. Willie Mae Loflin owns an exclusive restaurant here, with Lynn Huneycutt as the chief entertainer and cook. Charles Whitley was stationed in Memphis, Tennessee, with the U. S. Navy. He is trying to fix all of the ship radios so that they will pick up the Dick Biondi show, Pete Terry is a welder in Santa ' s Workshop located in Memphis. In Mississippi, we found that Grady Burris and Eddie Burris were joint managers of the Winn-Dixie Food Stores, Reggie Lowder is the president of the Mississippi Show Boat Company. He is trying to revive culture in the South. Well, it was time to go to Florida. At Fort Lauderdale we found Mary Fisher and Pat Huneycutt both happily married. Mary has written a book called, High School Daze. The book tells all about the troubles of a yearbook editor. Pat is busy taking care of her three little boys. She was recently named, Mother of the Year. Linda Hatley was a lawyer in Miami. They said she talked so much that criminals confessed just to have some peace and quiet. Evola Furr is Linda ' s private secretary. Poor Evola never talks anymore. She doesn ' t have a chance. Cape Canaveral was our last stop. Here we found that Kenneth Gilbert, Bobby Misenheimer, and Ronnie Huneycutt were the chief mechanics on a new rocket. Air Force Captain Tony Ridenhour was the commanding officer of this project. Beth Russell, Helen Almond, and Frances Ingram were secretaries in Captain Ridenhour ' s office. Brenda Morton was the head nurse at the base hospital. Sue Dewey was the head mathematician. If she adds right the project will be a success. If not. . .let ' s don ' t think about it. Linny Sells was the chief technician for Project Mars. Tony Frick was the electronics engineer. Peggy Palmer is Tony ' s chief consultant, Paul Turner was in charge of the countdown. It began 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. . .Blast Off! Inside the rocket, which sailed into space, we found Eric Lefko and Buddy Wrenn, who are still inseparable. Quietly waving were Jo Beck and Ellen Flake. Jo was an X-ray technician. Ellen was covering the story for the Canaveral Trails . Suddenly Jo screamed, Wait Buddy! You forgot your peanut butter! The last thing to appear on the time-machine was a cloud of smoke streaming from the rocket saying, We shall return. Will we be like this in 1973? ELLEN FLAKE Prophetess 40
