SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY I had just arrived in New York from Madagascar, where I owned a plantation of trees growing money. Picking money from my trees made me tired so I had come to the Waldorf Astoria to rest. As I stepped into the lobby I felt something wasn't right. All the traffic was going away from the hotel, and in a hurry. People scurried. about as if makinz preparation for some impending doom. When a loud noise came from the grand ballroom of the Waldorf Astoria, I knew someone was having a wild party, and as I don't like to miss anything I strolled through the door and was instantly petrified. Now I could see why everyone was leaving. Before me was the notorious class of '53 from that famous center of learning, Rockville High. After twentv years they had met to reminisce about their wild esca- rades and to see what Destiny had handed each. And so I will now give you the low down on each member for they all have international repu- tations; good or bad. It would be only proper to start with the host, multibillionaire Melvin Greene and owner of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel. The great naturalist, Gerald Lenover, and his assistants, Bob Kulchar, and James Terry were there. They had just returned from the upper Amazon River Basin in search of a tribe of beautiful, blonde, bearded ladies, and from their wild, diabolical looks, their mission had been accomplished. Glamour Boy McMurtry, heart-throb of all the hobby soxers and the head coach of the Notre Dame football team, was explaining why they lost to Coloma Tech after winning seventy-nine consecutive games over the past ten years. Jim Nelson, a real-estate agent who owns half a million acres of vineyards at the North Pole, 8 summer resort in the Sahara Desert, and all the lots under Lake Michigan, was there trying to sell his stock and real-estate, but for some unknown reason, he wasn't having much success. David Todd is now Professor of Anatomy and Physical Hygiene at Vassar, an all girl's college. Mr. Todd is an excellent teacher, for he takes a very deeg interest in all his feminine students and gives each of them his undivided attention. The great opera singer, Tennessee Tom McMurtry, cancelled all his important engagements so that he might honor the party with his pre- sence. His rich bass voice is proclaimed by many to be the Igreatest the world has ever known. The song that he sings best 'and has made popular throughout the world is, There's A Hole In The Bottom Of The Sea. Une member of this famed class has reached the eminence of nobil- ity, for he is a king. This lucky person is none other than James Monroe, King of the Hoboes . Mr. Monroe has a very beautiful office in the twenty-fifth box car on the side track at Judson, Indiana and visitors are always welcome, except flatfoots.
