Aladdin was very fortunate in having his magic lamp to help him End out the things he wanted to know. If I could be Aladdin for five minutes I would rub the lamp and summon the two genii to let me see some of the Seniors five years from now. My wish is granted and the lamp is mine. A loud explosion is heard and Stephen Nemeth is seen emerging, very much bewildered, from the ruins of a once beautiful building. One of his experiments just didn't work for shall I say worked too welll so now he can resume his wandering, which incidentally started right after graduation. Perhaps he will Find someone like Mr. Hurff with whom he can argue. Irmie Beckmann is Stephen's very efficient secretary. He needs someone to un- tangle him when his experiments become too confusing. Stephen has brought to the scene Doctor Lazell and nurses Barbara Downs, Gale Trenary, Marie Schreiber, Elizabeth Conway, and Irene Mystkowski. Florence Overton has for the last two years been trying to work with HDoc Lazell as a medical technologist because it seems that she just can't forget him. Doctor Lazellls staff of nurses was decreased when Frances Chandler became Mrs. John Dickerson. Johnny was always getting headaches, whether because of his work or because he had to worry about all the girls who were attracted to him, I don't know, but he decided he needed the care of an experienced person. Johnny is now living a very peaceful life. Leroy Scudder is still being pursued by Dorothy McDonald and June Werner. Maybe Roy wishes he had l28l

gone traveling with Bob Tuttle or exploring South America with HGeneral', Joe Tury. Then too, he could have gone to California with Tommy Grasley. The shrill siren of an ambulance prevents further thinking. Bessie Holden, who wanted to be an army ambulance driver, but changed her mind when 'ghisn one year term was over in the army, is now ready to help those injured by the explosion. Close behind her, without the aid of a siren but with much rattling, comes l'Cowgirl Ketch in her little Ford. Edie decided her Ford was just as good as, if not better than, any ambulance, so now she follows Bessie around quoting: MI hope that I shall never see A car like my old model T lVhose tires are so small and hard Each bump my spinal column jars, VX-'hose parts are cheap, but holy smoke! I buy so many that now I'm broke. From the new Northport School CStephen also blew up the old onej rush to the explosion Mary Klaboe, who is now teaching American History CShe's going to stop teaching soon and marry Werner Danglemaierj , Selma Bloom- field, who is a kindergarten teacher, and Bob Rose who has returned to school year after year to see if he can break his own record for tardiness, He has been in the Senior Class now for so long that the administration is seri- ously thinking of letting him start again from the Kindergarten. Bob has hired Flo Sayek to act as his secretary in keeping his tardiness record exact. Amato Macedonio, who was runner-up to Rose for tardiness, gave up long ago because he decided that maybe after all, Bob had too much of a lead. That ace photographer, Helly Jenelten, has been at the scene of the accident for quite a while getting all the best pictures. With him is his wife, Arlene Mahoney, who is also his secretary. A limousine, owned by those three famous million dollar playboys, Gordon R. Swezey, Alfred g'Ajax Wojcik, and Al Lustig, comes tearing up to the disaster. Lustig and VVojcik are rather downhearted because Gordon has just told them he is going to settle down and give up his life as a playboy because Connie Cavanagh has just said yes.', Speaking about settling down, Lil Straub decided she uhad it bad and has now been happily married to him,' for three years. Miss Karolyi, Miss O'Rourke, and Mr. Collister also arrive at the acci- dent, but upon seeing all the former Seniors, turn around and leave, but quickly! Oh, well, I suppose they haven't gotten over the first headache yet. My lamp is burning out Cmaybe I should have used a Hashlightij and the two genii are back to tell me that my wish has been fulfilled. Would you, if you had had the chance, made the same wish or would you have let things move along in their ordinary course? Helen Froebel l29'I
