SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY . It is the year 1971 and a member of the 1948 graduating class of North Webster High School has made one of the most important discoveries of the ages. John Weimer, the great physicist, has discovered a way to communicate with another universe. Since the discovery of the Atomic Bomb in 1945, people had gotten in touch with the moon and other planets, so that now we had a planetary civilization. Dr. Weimer had been invited to make his announcement of the great discovery before all the other planetary presidents by John Frisinger, who was elected President of the Earth in 1968. John Weimer has five days to get the '48 graduating class together. Since he does not want to give his information to the Earth and other planets until the day of the reunion of the graduating class, he has solicited the services of the F. B. I. in getting the members of the class together. Much to his surprise, he discovered that Jack Dietrich, Wayne Freshour, Donald Cretcher, and Joe Kruger are all members of the F. B. I. He knew then that he had nothing to worry about, for these 4 super-sleuths would take care of getting the class together. The 4 great Sherlocks rush to their local airport where they take off for their nearest Atomic Airline. As they are ushered to their seats, luck seems to be with them, for the attractive hostess, Doris Jean Gaff, was a member of the graduating class. Reaching the Atomic Airline, the 4 sleuths are off on a trip to the other planets. Dietrich, being inquisitive, steps up to ask the pilot how many minutes the trip will take and finds another member of the class. None other than the “Flying Ace of the Atomic Airline , Ronald Zulick. Stopping at Mars in the hope of picking up some clues, they meet the editor of the Marstonan News, Joanne Lister, who directs them to a mammoth drugstore. Here they find the greatest living pharmacist of the entire planet, Dick Culberson, and his wife, who was the former Rose Mary McMahan, and who was very busy taking care of the twins. With seventeen members yet to be found, the four detectives continue on their journey to the Planet Jupiter. Here they decide to do a little research of their own and find themselves in the “Locke Conservatory of Music.” (Named, of course, for the greatest musician of all time, Mary Alice Locke.) Wandering through a beautiful park, they come upon a honeymoon couple, who turns out to be none other than Elmo Engle and the former Peggy Kernodle. Chartering the One Minute rocket ship they start a short excursion to some of the other planets. First stop—Saturn. Here they find George Warble rushing from one employment agency to another still looking for a job that doesn’t take any work. They also find “The Saturonian-Van Curen Shoppe , a very fashionable dress shop owned by Miss Lorita Van Curen. Flash Flash:’. A radargram from Earth states that President Frisinger has appointed 2 new cabinet members—Secretary of State: Joe Martin and Secretary of the Treasury: Dick Shock and 2 new personal secretaries: Wilma Dean Nonemaker and Mae Stump. The sleuths learn from that great master mind of information Carleton Leek, that Rosalys Buckles is a great actress back on Earth and is the sensation of Paris. Coming home through the ionosphere, stratosphere, and atmosphere they see that great atomic stunt flyer, Edwin Grieder, cutting all sorts of capers, while mortician Jack Stump stands by with his atomic ambulance waiting for business to pick up. There was no difficulty for them to locate Zelma Banning, for everyone knew she was head of the Government Department at Harvard College.
