Glass prophecy Having just arrived home from our trip to visit the Emperor of China, We decided to have a party for our classmates. We are staying in the Russell Hotel , owned by the big hotel tycoon, Vernon Russell. After renting his ballroom, which is called The Slippery Slide , we sent out invitations to the members of the graduating class of 1952. We employed Glenna Meadows to write the invitations and Bill Wheeler to deliver them. Mr. Russell came to our aid by lending us his orchestra, 4'Gamble,s Scramble , led by Bob Gamble, whose star vocalist is none other than t-hat North American bombshell, Twila 'Scream It Sagle! This was all we had to do for the party because of two old friends, Irene Thompson, the hotells hostess, and Harvey Patterson, the caterer. Finally the big night descends upon us. Going into the ballroom, We dis- cover that several guests have arrived before us and are enjoying themselves. Mr. and Mrs. Chester Cox, she is the former Nellie Rider, are dancing to a slow waltz with their five children trailing along behind them singing 'Top Goes the Weasel . Mrs. Donald Smith, the Naomi Duff, and Mrs. Kenneth Eveland, the former Ruth VV'hetstone, and their husbands are standing in the middle of the floor discussing baby formulas and the latest methods on how to train your kids. Over in the corner we see a small group gathered. They seem very amused. Taking a second look we see they are Mary .lane Shaw, the famous driving instructor, Tom Flemming, tree sawbones, Johanna Heckel, owner of a herd of prize-winning hereford cattle, which she grazes in the -streets of Roseville, David Horn, the school teacher, Marvin Sower, owner of the biggest chain of grocery stores in the country, and the pineapple grove owner, Mary Ann Evans. Going closer we see why they are so amused. Booty Hanning, the Well- known monkey trainer, and her star monkey, Sue Allen, are going through some of their antics. Suddenly the orchestra strikes up a fanfare and in walks some of the most noted athletes in the country. They are: Mightyl' Marvin Atomic Folden, the world's champion heavyweight wrestler, Rich Tiny,' Spring, famous midget wrestler, James Maxwell, heavywreight boxer, James Hammers, highest paid baseball star in the leagues. this team hasn't won a game since Jim was hiredj, David Inman, star football player at Ohio U., and the all- American basketball center, Harold Lantz. All at once the orchestra hits a very sour note announcing the arrival of the President of the U. S,, the Honorable Jerry F. Owens. He is accompanied by a group of White House dignitaries, his personal private secretary, Barbara Skinner-she is wearing a new mink coat, the personal private secretary's sec- retary, Dorthy Dickson. Next comes the red-hot Republican Congresswoman, the lady farmer, Lois Ann Moody, and her secretary, Mary Ann Hansen, try- ing her best to sell some of the produce from Moody's Farm.

Bringing up the rear is the secretary of the whole cabootle, Eileen Swingle. The guests have about all arrived but we still have a few -stragglers com- ing. There is Ruth Roberts. We hear by means of a grapevine, that she's 'ha pily married to a preacher, Lora Luckett, the renowned circus performer, Bettym Weaver, a nurse in a dentist office, Molly Brumage, a WAC, Barbara Nebinger, -an army nurse in the Air Corps, and squiring them is the cement plant owner, Jack Lambert. The two old show-offs are displaying their trades. The are none other than Earl Bruce, the ele hant hunter, carrying a tusk, and lilanley, the Klondike bear hunter from Aliaska, wearing a bear skin. After them comes the Wyoming ranch owner, Nancy Carrell, Mary Belle Launder, who operates a poultryw farm, and the fabulous New York spittoon cleaner dressed to the hilt, Ronald Murgatroyd. ' With their -arrival the entertainment begins. First on the program comes Martha Luckett, who has taken Carmen Miranda's place. Robert Brumage, the Hollywood Lover Idol, takes the spot light next. Last but least, Pat Patch, the famous orator, delivers ia speech on How To Hold Your Mann. She is in- terrupted every few minutes by a young lady who crawls out from under the curtain yelling, Are there any eligible young men in the joint? We discover she is Myrna Moody who is still hoping -to be married soon. All at once we hear a great disturbance in one of the back rooms of the hotel. Upon investigating we discover a fast poker game is being conducted. Drawing closer we find that they are our old friends, Bob Laughlin, Joe Miller, Roger Sowers, and Larry Neff. Here comes somebody who obviously believes. in Better late than never , Bob Ball. Bob had a very good excuse, it takes quite some time for Dixie and him to get all twelve kids ready at the same time. Finding that all the class of '52 is. present, the owner of the Stork Club, Rebecca Ferguson, invites us to the club. Carroll Moore, the truck driving tycoon offers us his trucks for transportation from the Slippery-Sliden to the Stork Club. Although everyone is a little tired, we are sure that everyone en- joyed the party at the 'LRussell Hotel in 1975. PAULA CANNON NANCY WILLIAMS Paula Cannon, Nancy Williams SEVENTEEN
