Class of ’33 As each card was pressed to her forehead Madame Olga divulged the owner’s future. The following is a recording of the most interesting things told to us on that evening in March of 1933. We gladly pass this informa- tion on to you, and hope that it will answer for you, as satisfactorily as it did for us, the all-important question, “What is going to become of the Class of 1933?” John McCarty will be an eminent physician at the head of a promin- ent hospital, in some one of our largest cities. Alice Scott will be an author, a novelist of exceeding genius, while Paul Giroux will be a talented musician and will thrill the world with his harmony. Tom Gibson will be a business man of some sort, who will be inclined to stay out late at night, and “dine at the club.” It is hoped that the girls of the class will take warning and avoid any one of the boys of the class who seems to evince like dangerous business instincts. It is also forecast that Irene Schuler will be prominent in society, and fond of entertainment. Bill Laing will be a cowboy of great and won- derful bravery and endurance, feeding, perhaps, upon the very husks that the kine won’t eat. or similar indigestible breakfast foods. Leona Munroe will find herself much in love with somebodv or other at some time or other in her later life, and may even be temoted to think about getting married. We wonder who the victim will be! Fortunately for our peace of mind, the cards keep their secret well. John Kleespies will some day be exceedingly wealth — one of the money kings of the world. He is also goin°r to develop a fiery temper. Vernon Rogers will travel a great deal, and explore other countries, having many exciting adventures and escapes. Ray Heckethorn will found a new church and carry her doctrines into new lands and thus create a new religion for somebody. Helen Grigg will become a nun and Madge Mahurin will become a Salvation Armv officer. Lillian Craig will keep a curio shop in Siam and will sell old chromos to the natives for immense sums of money. Sarah McWhirt will almost lose her mind over some old thing or other—possibly a man, though the card is not very definite—she should take warning. Thelma Hendrix will become a great detective: we hope that she will keep a sharp eye on each of us and keep us out of trouble. Raymond Mc- Mullen will be a lawyer. Judging bv the few lawyer’s notes that we have seen, and comparing them with Ravmond’c handwriting we are sure that he will be a success. Lorine Earhart will be calling “Hello! Hello!” and will be the Central who will connect our class in one complete circuit of communication for all time to come. It is not easy to live without work. We usually have to earn all that we get in this world. Madame Olga didn’t see John Crable as a tramp, but in some nice soft snap of a place. We would like to give him a cushion to make his rest hours as comfortable as possible. Lawrence DeArmond will be a cook in an exclusive restaurant and his recipes will be known in all parts of the world. Paul Carnapas is to be an orator, so we’ve copied this little advertisement, knowing that he will be sure to wish to make use of it: “Orations and Lectures on any subject written to order for One Dollar each. Would-be orators may make payment for same on the installment plan, if suitable references are furnished. Address: Professor Julius Caesar Wiseman, (Bob Brown) Washington, D. C.” — 18 —

Class of ’33 ♦ Trump Expectancy (Class Prophecy) What was to be done about a prophecy?” That was the question that occupied the minds of those who were members of the staff of the book to be known as “Senior Memories.” Class assignments had failed to produce the desired document. Some- thing had to be done and done quickly. As a member of the Senior class I felt that the question of a prophecy was a personal problem, so found myself thinking about it on many oc- casions but somehow I didn’t seem to arrive at any conclusion worthy of note. One evening, while I was seated at my study table, some neighbors arrived to visit my father and mother. I greeted them but pursued my labors. Their talk somewhat disturbed my powers of concentration so I naturally heard scraps of the conversation. During the course of the evening our neighbor’s wife spoke of a Madame Olga, a fortune teller who had recently arrived in our locality. Madame Olga had quite a following. She was consulted in regard to many weighty problems. If one had an extra thousand dollars to invest, Madame Olga was asked where it could be placed to the best advantage; if a young lady de- sired to know about her future she would visit the fortune teller, and if a mother were dissatisfied with her young hopefuls activities she would ask Mandame Olga to foretell her future. Information of this nature could be acquired for the sum of one dollar. My parents and their friends thought this business of telling fortunes was rather ridiculous and got quite a good deal of merriment out of the various accounts that were circulating concerning Madame Olga. The stories gave me an inspiration. The next day I told Bill Laing all about the fortune teller and he agreed with me that she might be of assistance to us in the writing of our prophecy. We determined to visit her immediately. It was with some misgivings that we knocked at Madame Olga’s door, but we were soon at ease as we found a rather attractive, bright-eyed, little woman of about fifty years. She readily agreed to help us. After we had told her that there were originally fifty-two seniors in our class and that we called ourselves the “pack,” she suggested that we obtain a pack of cards, let each senior write his name on one card, and then bring the cards to her. She would then read the futures of our class- mates in the marked cards. It was decided that two other members of the class should be present at the reading, preferably those with experience in shorthand so that they could take down the words of the fortune teller. Mae Hollingshead and Geraldyne Stich were immediately pressed into service and the four of us went to Madame Olga’s that evening. — 17 —

Class of ’33 Edwin Eckert will become very tall and slender and will manage a fleet of flying cars operating between New York City and Mars. Joyce Fletcher, Roma Gentry, Beth Despain, Elva Despain and Georgia Har- bauer will serve him as conductors who will assist his passengers in and out. Marshall Benedict, Gerald Burt, and Louis Hesla will be inter- planetary pilots in the employ of the same firm. They will be just as speedy as ever, but will not take the chances they took in the past. Elaine Miller will become strong, brave, and bold. A woman of strong mind, strong will, and strong temper. A lecturer on a strong subject, “Why the Hole Should Not be Left Out of the Donut.” Donald Jacoby will become a second Wrigley. He will decide that he might just as well have the profits on all the gum he chews as to let someone else pocket it. He will perfect several new types of gum. One type will chew itself—absolutely no energy will be required on the part of the user. Another type will win any athletic contest in which it is used. Walter Cobey, of the Prescott Junior Senior High School faculty w l prove these guarantees and will be glad to send testimonials. Kenneth Cooper will drive a rocket coach between Chicago and New York. One of his best fares will be Bert Thompson who is to become quite a dude. Bert will never appear in public without his gloves, cane, and a monocle. Something tells me that we will not know the man. Albert Green will become a market man and will shout “Fish,” with all his might. We think of this in wonder, for who would have thought that our old time friend could be brought to such a task. Hortense Nebeker will be dancing on the stage; Nancy Lea will be an opera singer; Helen Warren will grow so heavy that Anti-Fat will be her sole diet. Mary Louise Bruchman will be an actress fair; the idol of the public everywhere. Mae Hollingshead will be the governor of Arizona in 1953 due to the efforts of her campaign manager, Geraldyne Stich. Both will be popular and efficient; Arizona will grow and prosper under their tutelage. Halfred Love will be the proprietor of a chain of air hotels on Earth and Mars. These will be floating palaces designed by Roy Earnhart, a world famed architect and engineer. Each hotel will be “just like home” to the traveling folk. Helen Thompson who has added several surnames since the good old days, will be the hostess of the most expensive of these hotels and her chief entertainers will be Lora Wilkins, a renowned violin- ist; Dorothy Williams, the “Wild Western Gal,” who will sing cowboy scngs while loping on her horse “Army,” and Evelyn Vaughen and Max McCully who will form a famous dance and song team. Class of 1933, my duty is at an end. and the future is hereafter to you an open book. May each one of you follow faithfully the path Madame Olga has marked out for you, and so make your lives the glorious successes the fates have decreed that they are to be. — 19 —
