SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY We wish to thank the sponsors of Wild Goat Chewing Gum for relinquishing their time to¬ night and permitting us to present to the viewers of Channel 1, Station WNCHS the annual program “People Are News”. This year’s program features people who have made outstanding achieve¬ ments in the years 1954-1964. First on our television screen we see Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Hampton (Mrs. Hampton is the former Miss Carole Harmon). Mr. and Mrs. Hampton, married for six years, are quite proud of their three children, Joe, Jr., Josephine, and Joselle. Mr. Hampton, now Fleaweight Champion of the World is training three year old Joe, Jr., to follow in his footsteps. Now we see three old maids gossiping over a white picket fence. They are Misses Cleo Allen, Cutie Sewell and Odell Chapman, all inmates of the Dixon Home for Unmarried Women. For the life of me, I can’t see how Cleo made it; we were sure that by now, she’d be married to the manager of Dixon’s Old Maid Home, Trim Dixon. Believe it or not but Misses Flossie Sample, Leevenzil Gibbs, Helen Sample and Yvonne Smith are all Powers Models with twenty two inch waistlines. Mr. Charles Bailya and the former Miss Ethel Harmon are in Bermuda on their honeymoon. Mr. John B. Sample, the All American Athlete, has taken the place of the retired Reece Tatum with the Harlem Globe Trotters. Mr. Sample’s wife, the former Miss Geneva Sample, sits in the bleachers and cheers herself blue in the face at every game. That most genial of all guys, Clarence Smaw, is now the two-hundred and fifty pounds star of the Royal Canadian Football Team. We hear by the way of the grapevine that he has broken the hearts of half of the Canadian lasses. We regret that he cannot be televised, but Raymond Gunter is Chief Inspector in charge of cleaning the streets of Manhattan. Here on film we have Miss Constance Whitney, internationally famous concert soprano, who is now on tour, singing for royalty in the Far East. We always knew she’d make good- even in high school. Charles Perkins is presently employed as Doctor of Philosophy at the Perkins Institute of Split Verbs and Broken Language. Our congratulations go to Robert Hallett and George Tate who received their college diploma just last night after seven school terms and four summers of study. Their major field of study was Aero-Dynamics. Mr. Joseph Davis and his wife, the former Miss Carolyn Wright, have finally married after nearly eight years of courtship; they have settled on their lovely ranch in Waco, Texas, and are experimenting with a serum that is supposed to make perfume from the glands of polecats. We know very little of their progress, however, be¬ cause the odor of the “perfume’’ discourages anyone from going closer than a mile of the ranch. Misses Elenor Collins, Shirley Wynder and Bessie Edwards have been forced to close the ir “Snappy Food Shop’’ on Chitterling Ave. because of lack of customers. It seems that during their opening week three of their customers died after eating the house specialty, crayfish soup; one of the young ladies had tried to economize by substituting specially prepared toadstools for the required mush¬ rooms. Since that time all four of them have been banished like “Baby Lon’’. Miss Pauline Matthews and Mr. William Sisco have again broken their engagement for the ninth time. It seems that Miss Matthews didn’t approve of the way Mr. Sisco used a punch bowl on Lawrence Collins head at thelastSt. Patrick’s Day Ball. Here we have a picture of Mr. Collins in his private room at Harlem Hospital. In case you are wondering about that huge tube like object propped up on the scaffolding, it is Lawrence’s head. Mr. Sisco said it was all in self defence because Lawrence aimed at him with the ice bucket. William Davis, Libby Beaman and Raymond Armstrong have opened a skating rink in Chicago, but the rink is temporarily closed because both of the young men are confined to their rooms with compound fractures of the skull resulting from a head on collision on the ice. Misses Mary Ann Collins, Lucille Giddens, Shirley Upshur and Evelyn Christain have formed themselves into a quartette called “The Non-Musical ones’’ and are appearing nightly at the swanky “Stardust Night Club’’. Believe it or not, but petite Evelyn Christain is the featured vocalist and the house is packed. Messrs Laniton Bailey, James Collins, Earl Jordan, John Nottingham and Curtis Collins are great business men in Africa. They have been sent over by their company to clear up some jungle property and build a dozen ice houses and deep-freeze plants. On this film we take you under the tents of Harris and Hrem Circus where Messrs Ernest Willis, Roosevelt Fisher, and Orlo Trower are employed as weight lifters and trick riders. In the same circus David Williams and Caldonia Turner have become famous trapeze artists. Their specialty is turning trapeze somersaults two hundred feet in the air. Attorneys Edward Fisher and Jacob Thomas are shown here at their Washington hotel where they are making final plans for a trip to South America. They have been sent by the President as Ambassadors to Peru and Venezuala respectively.
