THE 1 9 3 7 R ACIN A Senior Class Prophecy The Editor of the New York newspaper that I work on has just told me that he is sending me to all sections of the country in order to interview people of all classes for a story on “Mow the American people are thinking” to use his own words. 1 make my arrangements immediately and take a taxi for the airport. On the way I glance through my newspaper and read that Don Heiney, the new light-weight champion of the world, is lighting an exhibition match at Yankee Stadium. When 1 get out of the taxi and pay my tare, 1 notice something familiar about the driver It is Ray Roush! He tells me that he and Earl (lorham. who is an actor, share an apartment together. As 1 start to board the plane, who should greet me but air hostess. Rose Lee. She explains to me that the plane is chartered by a vaudeville troupe, and that 1 will be the only other passenger. When the troupe arrives, it turns out to be the one that is billed throughout the country as “Marcella Cleland and Her I ancing Darlings”. The “darlings’ are Eileen and Kathleen Boyd, Dorothy Varian, Hazel Shane, Verna Byers, Janice Buckley. Garnet Cozart. Josephone Wolfe, and Helen Cornell. I learn also, that Henry Linscott is the pilot of the airliner, and George Hayman, co-pilot. My first stop is Washington, D. C. It is just about four o’clock so I drop into a quaint little tea-room. The owner, reeogniznig me. comes forth to greet me, and what a pleasant surprise! It is Eloise Bell! We get to talking over old times”, and she tells me that Grace Salser is studing French in Paris in preparation for accepting a professorship at Columbia University. While 1 sit there sipping my tea. a senator is pointed out to me, and am I surprised when I realize I know him.Senator Ralph Smith is very popular among feminine voters, and his motto is The ‘pee-pul’ are always right.” Walking down Pennsylvania Avenue I meet Patty Shain now in the President’s cabinet as Secretary of Commerce. It is rumored that she is in line to be our next president. I decide to go to Chicago by train. While waiting for my train. 1 pick up The Chemist’s Journal and read that Margaret Spencer and Irene Wickline, working together, have made startling discoveries concerning the Periodic Table and the Automic Theory. On the train 1 meet. Quentin Hayman. James Hunt, Charles Lawrence, Earl Cross, and James Carpenter, who are big league baseball players and have just returned from winter training headquarters. On arriving in Chicago, I get on a sight-seeing bus. Noticing a group of women teachers up front. I speak to them and cry for joy! They are Adele Sargent, Kinder-garden teacher; Elma Martin, Home Economics teacher; Mary McCoy, w’ho teaches French; Virginia Philson. Public-Speaking teacher and Dramatic Instructor; Susan Ilolter, Mathmatics teacher, and Addie Mae Delaney. Commercial teacher. Feeling in need of a little relaxation, I decide to go out to dance. I choose the new club, Casamona, where Roger Wolfe and his “swing band” are playing with Nina Byers as their featured soloist. Edward Beegle, Mildred Roush and Lillian Hoback form a special acrobatic team. Fritz Buck and Paul Sayre play Hawiian guitars and sing. In San Francisco, I am invited to a luncheon given by the artists and writers club, w’hose members include Veda Wilcoxen, Magazine illustrator; Clarence Bradford, newspaper reporter; Mary Lew Philson, who writes an advice-to-the-lovelorn-column. (The public doesn’t know that she is now' getting rid of her fourth husband); Billy Grimm, cartoonist and poet; Sylvia Roush, playwright. Among the other guests present, at the luncheon w’ere Margaret Shelton, just returned from doing missionary work in China; Billy Pickens, a deep Sea Diver, and Isabel Harris, a famous surgeon. When I go to my Hotel in Hollywood I see a mob of women gathered around three hands me movie stars. As 1 get closer I recognize Joe Farra, Delbert Holter and Richaid Norris, signing autographs. Hilda Sayre, who designs clothes for the movie actresses, is also staying at this hotel. Maxine Roush, Ruby Smith, and Virginia Carnahan operate a Dude Ranch in Nevada As I start hcmew'ard, I am very happy to have met so many old friends. JUANITA WRIGHT page tw’enty-four
