Class Prophegf After being nominated the Best Actress for the year 1971, I took a well- earned vacation and traveled around the world. Boarding the plane at Holly- wood's airport, I saw Soloman Douglas, Minister of Los Angeles's largest church, and Paul Bulluck, Sacramento's District Attorney. While conversing with them in New York, I discovered that they were only attending the pre- mier of James Parker's concert at Carnagie Hall. Then Iheard someone calling my name. Of course I recognized Otis Hines's voice as Disc Jockey for hundreds of America's teenagers. We had a pleasant conversation con- cerning other members of the class of 63. He said that Alphonza Draughn is president of Pall Mall's Tobacco Factory, Benjamin Hart and Thomas Wil- liams own a night club in Las Vegas, Geraldine Whitehead and Erma Heath are private secretaries to Daniel Lyons who is Vice-President of American Broadcasting Company, and Flora Bulluck is a Nurse in Florida. While I was resting in my suite at Joyce Cooper's hotel in New York and reading poetry by Deeman Bulluck, Curtis Mack visited me. It was indeed a pleasure to see him, for I was most anxious to hear how he achieved the title Most Valuable Player of the Year. The Giants being my favorite team, made his story extremely interesting. We dined together at a Chinese restaurant owned by Corrine Parker, Gloria and Blanchie Pittman. When I arrived in Paris, I had the opportunity of receiving a dinner invita- tion from President Charles de Gaulle. For this occasion I wanted to look my best. Margie Thorne and Andrea Whitehead styled my hair at their beauty salon, and I bought my gown from Madame Originals, owned by Della Hill where two attractive young ladies, Earlene Pittman and Helen Green modeled the latest fashions. Before leaving Paris, lhad my portrait painted by Carlton Cloyd. Mr. Cloyd told me that Peggy Hill and Gilbert Daniels were in England designing the queen's 3250.000 mansion. After Paris came the lands of mystery: Japan, Hawaii, and Alaska. lncidently Barbara Lyons and Dazell Hill reside in Hawaii and are wives of United States Senators. Next came Canada where I saw the missionaries, Mary Lyons, and Helen Hines. They told me that Charles Allen is a Mountie Policeman there. During my stay in Canada I also attended an opera in which Gracie Johnson was a great star. I was informed by her that Frances Shelly was on a good- will tour in Africa. When I returned to Hollywood, Acey Cooper, Vice-President of Warner Brothers, told me that Calvin Wiggins was to play opposite me in my next picture, Strangers by Day, written by Loretta Silver. If you wish, you may read of my tour in a book published by Annie Tay- lor. She has also written biographies of Charles Battle and Lorenza Silver. If you would like to know how Mr. Battle and Mr. Silver survived three months on the planet Mars, read these books at The Sevella Sessons Library in Washington D.C. - - by Linda Cooper 27

GLADYS WILLIAMS Library Club Class Poem To the school we think sublime, We say at graduation time: Through the years we've loved you so, And now, we sincerely hate to go. Our commencement departure is very nigh As we think of dear olf Phillips High. When we were freshmen we tried so hard To become worthy citizens for a reward. As sophomores and juniors strong and bold Our aim was to do as we were told. We finally reached the senior mark When we felt that we had started a spark. As we leave the maroon and gray To face our duties day after day, We'll remember those who helped us make Great progress steps for our own sake. With hearts of sorrow, yet joy and praise, Banners of Phillips We'll always raise. by Roosevelt Lyons and Deeman Bulluck Class Song Dear Phillips High, dear Phillips High The time has come. The time has come for us to say so long, But as you know our futures Lie ahead of us, so we must go to that Successful shore. Yes, we'll remember you and yours forever, Although we leave you now with parting tears. We'll think of you and all your helpful guidance. Dear Phillips High, we love, we love you so. We leave you now, we leave you now With sorrow, But memories of you will linger on. We'll never forget the happy Years we spent with you, And pray that dreams of our Success come true by Frances Shelley, Helen Hines, Ernest Farmer and Benjamin Hart A 26 THOMAS WILLIAMS Choral Club, Drum Major.
