The 1947 Maroon PROPHECY What will these Seniors of '47 do? That we will try to show to you, By the following ten and two rimes Here's what they'll be doing in fareaway times. Clarence directs us to board his newest plane. It's jet-propelled, we hear him loudly exclaim. Let's take a fast trip and see all our classmates: Find out their ambitions and their fates. First on our long list is Bertie Mae. Who's been married now many a day: She's just written the best-seller of the year. A book entitled Leroy Was Here. While flying over big White barns, We see that they're Glen's dairy farms: His youngster, Billy, is in the F. F. A. And is winning prizes every day. At Glen's dairy farm we'll see Carl Carter is extremely busy: A famous veterinarian he is now, Curing either horse or cow. Now to the University of Illinois, There we see Wilma, filled with joy. The Bureau of Home Economics she's head of. y She teaches good housekeeping with all sincerity. And on an experimental lot behind the university. John has just brought here for everyone to see A super farm aid that's quite a sensation: Plows. discs, harrows, and sows in one operation. And here in the middle of busy Green Street Our flatfoot Danny we suddenly meet: I'm still pounding my beat, we hear him say. Doing this same thing every day. In the West we view from quite a height, Herb's wheat farm and there we alight To see this great farm of the Middle West: As a farmer, we hear. Herb's one of the best. In Hollywood we meet Helen Hayn, And in her penthouse we will dine: People daily send her flowers, For she's a model for John Powers. Here also we see someone directing the band, Of the U. S. Air Forces, with a mighty hand. That someone is Rusty, with his grinning face: He takes the band through quite a pace. Now we will take another small hop, For the famous Stork Club is our next stop: We see our Betty, pounding the keys. Living a wonderful life of ease. As we stop for a few hours of rest, We find Dorothy Stein, here in the West: She's running her own little ofiice force. And is glad that she took that commerce course. OU SEE
