CLASS OF 47 PROPHECY-Continued At 2:30 P. M., Miss Mauder, the suspect, accompanied by her most faithful maid, Ruth Dunmyer, was brought into court. Miss Dunmyer used to be the richest woman in America, but the business world went bankrupt, so Miss Dunmyer was completely broke. Miss Dunmyer took the iob as Miss Ann Maude-:r's faithful maid. flt has been rumored that Miss Dunmyer will quit her iob and become the wife of the richest cotsup distributor in the worldt. The court was called to order, Miss Mauder was brought on trial for the wicked crime of putting gum under Mr. Louclenslager's desk. Miss Mauder wasn't worried about being found guilty be- cause c'lI of her old classmates had prominent positions in the court and city. Judge Moulton was her dearest and most faithful friend. Pat Stanger, Virginia Woicinski, Phyllis Fel- hober, and Howard Adkins all occupied four seats in the jury box. Pot Stzanger had become the president of the S'ear's Company, and the proprietor of the Grcveyards, Inc. Virginia Woicinslzi w.:-s the tallest, the sweetest and fattest woman in the United States. She used to be with the circus, Phyllis Felhaber was the most popular pianist in America, but she finally gave up her career to become the wife of an All Americ'n Baseball Player, who used to go to Lake High School lyou all know his name?D. Howard Adkins has been voted Glamour Boy , because he is so beautiful, gorgeous, handsome, pretty and lovely. He is a iuror because it is a different hobby. Then there was Mr, Robert King, another old friend of Miss Mauder's. Mr. King is also famous for muscles and wcight lifting. Mr. King could prove that Miss Mauder never purchased a package of Wrigleys Spearmint gum in her whole life. No, Miss Mauder wasn't in the least worried. Judge Moulton called the court to order. The clerk of the court, the brilliant Mary Swartz, called the first witness to the stcnd. Miss Swartz is now the wife of Mr. Ray Lewis, as if we didn't know that it would happen. The clerk called out, Will Professor Dale Ellis of Deflunk College please take the stand? The clerk went on, Do you promise to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God? Pro- fessor Ellis answered, I do! Professor Ellis used o be an opera singer, baritone, that is. Miss Betty Taylor, the most intelligent lawyer Miss Mauder could employ, said to the witness, Now, tell us exactly what you remember especially about Miss Mauder? Professor Ellis began, WelI, the only thing I can remember is that Miss Mauder was always chew- ing gum- . VVhot kind of gum? Miss Taylor interrupted. Wrigley's Spearmint gum! Professor Ellis indignantly an- swered. Thank you, Professor Ellis. Your witness, Miss Taylor said, as she handed Professor Ellis over to Mr. Olis Sutter, the toughest and the roughest Prosecuting Attorney in the business. He used to be chief coach of the Ohio State University, but he was such a wonderful and magnificent coach, that all the coaches in the United States became ieol- ous of him, so he had to retire and become a prosecuting attorney. After Professor Ellis wds grilled for quite a long time by Prosecuting Attorney Olis Sutter, Professor Ellis left the stand, and the second witness was called. Will Miss Pat Allred please take the stand? called the clerk. Do you promise to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so hclp you God? the clerk asked. I do! answered Miss All- red, who used to be a blues singer in the Stork Club, in New York City. Now, began Miss Taylor, Did you ever see my client, the accused Miss Mauder, chew gum? Miss Allred began, Well, you see- . Did you or did you notl shouted Miss Taylor. No! cried Miss Allred. That is all, thank you, Miss Allred. Your witness, Mr. Sutter. Miss Taylor breathed. Then Mr. Sutter began, Miss Allred, did you or did you not see Miss Mauder chewing two sticks of Wrigley's Spearmint gum on the night of April 28, I947? No! No! screamed Miss Allred. You did! shouted Mr. Sutter. I didn't! wailed Miss Allred. That is all, Miss AIlred, sighed Mr. Sutter. The iury will decide the case. The iury went into seclusion in the adjoining room. After long hours of tense waiting the iury came forth from the room with the decision. Well, said Judge Moulton, do you find the defendant, Miss Ann Mauder, guilty or not guilty? The iuror, Howard Adkins began. We find the defendant-- . Just then the door of the court room flung open, Wait! Wait! cried a woman that pushed her way through the gathered crowd. The woman was Miss Pat Nagy. Wait, wait with the verdict, I have a confession to make- I can't stand it any Iongerg I must confess! Miss Mauder isn't guilty, l am! The court gasped. I'm guilty. I put the gum under Mr. Loudenslager's desk the night of April 28, 1947. I put it there because there was no wastepaper basket around and I wanted to use the teIephone! Then you are the guilty one, Miss Nagy! Judge Moulton shouted. l sen- tence you to change your brand of chewing gum. I think Juicy Fruit is so-o-o-o-- much better! Court dismissed! By MISS PATSI NAGY lAny relation to any actual happening ten years from naw is purely intentionalt.

A wonderful, intelligent, miraculous, stupendous, considerate and dear class, indeed, but somehow since the class of 47 graduated, a terrible thing has been discovered. ln the eyes of the law, this terrible thing has been discovered. ln the eyes of the law, tlzis terrible thing would be considered a crime, and it was a crime, a very unscrupulous and horrible crime. On the cold and stormy, dark night, of April 28, 1957, Mr. Loudenslager was working late on some six weeks' exam papers. All of a sudden a bolt of lightning slashed outside of his office window. Mr. Loudenslager fell crashing to the floor. He glanced under his desk. A horrified expression replaced the painful one that disfigured his countenance. Much to his horror he made this awful discovery. There, right before his eyes, lay a mutilated and twisted obiect. Who dunnit? Who put it there? Who put the big wad of gum under Mr. Loudenslager's desk? lmmedistrly, Detective Shylock Edwin Weiland was called in to investigate the crime. After fourteen long hours of examining the mutilated obiect, Detective Shylock Wiland discovered only tvito clues. Clue 1, the gum, by touching it, was found to be ten years old lpossibly put there April 28, 19471. Clue 2, the gum, after piercing the outer hard crust, was VVrigley's Spearmint gum. After fourteen and one-half hours of constant concentration, Detective Shylock Weiland, using inductive reasoning, reasoned that a female mutilated the gum, and there was only one girl in 1947 who chewed Wrigley's Spearmint constantly. That girl was Miss Ann Mander, the most popular woman in American today. Miss Ann Mouder was the suspect! The gum was put up as Exhibit A . So as not to touch the exhibit, Detective Weiland sawed a large section from Mr. Loudenslager's new maple desk. The next morning, Judge Bill Moulton sent out a warrant for the arrest of Miss Mauder. Judge Bill Moulton used to run a burlesque show, but his conscience got the better of him, so he quit and turned to law and iustice. Judge Moul- ton sent two of his ablest and strongest people on the force, Sergeant Bruce Reimer and Policewoman Gerry Ruch. Sergeant Bruce Reimer used to model for men's shave lotion ads because his face was so smooth fthe reason for that was that he didn't have any whiskers yetj. When Bruce's beard finally appeared, they fired Bruce, so he became a policeman. .
