5 1- 5- tr,-,-nn 4, - .fy f-. -vwfnf-V , Class Prophecy Gee, that was an inspiring Baccalaureate sermon. Now I'II iust walk around to the front door and wait for the gang. You know, I'm really going to miss being in school-I know that I said that I would be glad, but when the end is so near, it almost scares me. Some of the gang have been crying. I guess I should go straight home and get my beauty sleep even though I'd rather not, so Goodnight everybody- see you tomorrow. Roll and tumble-Roll and tumble. If I get my French book, maybe that will put me to sleep. That's a good idea, Miss Owen. . Cut off that light, I have to work tomorrow. Je vous aime ----- le, la, les. I wonder where I am! Look at the tall buildings! Oh, Silly, you're dreaming. I can't be. Listen, someone's calling me. I wonder who it is. I'Il see. Come in-come in, Child. Oh no, I must go home. Come iust a moment, and I shall give you something to eat. Well, I am hungry. What's in the big pot? That, Dearie, is magic brew that will enable you to see in the future. Do you believe in that stuff? CertainIy. What period of time wou'd you like to know about? Let's see- I'd like to know what the gang will be doing in l962. lMagic wordsj Double, double, toil and trouble, Fire burns and brew bubbles, Come high or low, Thyself and office show. This looks like a bus station, everyone seems to be travel- ing so I may as well ioin the crowd. Where is everybody going? Oh! here's the ticket agent. The slow thing, won't he ever turn around? It's Howard McCall! When did he start punching tickets? After buying my ticket, I went to gate 6, track 2, and boarded the bus. Whom do you suppose I sat beside-none other than Gerene Galloway who was wearing a very strik- ing costume. She told me she was operating an exclusive dress shop in Jacksonville, Florida, and she always goes to New York each spring to buy her goods. When we arrived in New York, I said good-bye to Gerene and started exploring the city. Hearing a newsboy shout a familiar name, I bought a paper. I was astonished at seeing the headlines- Mildred O'ShieId spends vacation in Paris with friends. But reading more, I saw that she was a famous model of evening clothes and was visiting in Paris to see the new style creations. ' My hotel reservation was at the Waldorf Astoria, so imagine my surprise when I saw Peggy Lee seated at the reception desk. To add to my surprise, she told me that Joe Page Fourteen Staton and his orchestra were playing their fourth week on the Starlight Roof. About that time, Joe walked in and we talked about old times. I learned that Carlyle Whitmire owned and operated a big night club and that the place was overflowing on the nights that Carlyle sang. Before I left, in walked lnola Kilpatrick, famous for her hair styles. lnola stated that we should take a good look at her hair, because it was as famous as Hedda Hopper's hats. Next, I took a trip to Niagra Falls, where I saw Bonnie and Boyce celebrating their second honeymoon. By this time, I was so tired riding the bus that I went by plane to Chicago. At the air port I saw Betty Jean Mitchell, who is fashion editor of the Chicago Tribune, interviewing Wilma Ledford, fashion designer. Since I wanted to take a few dancing lessons, Wilma and Betty told me that Lewis Holden was definitely the best instructor. That didn't surprise me, because he was always dancing at school. I stopped at an unsmearable lipstick factory, and as I walked in the door, the first person I saw was Vera McCall, pounding a typewriter. When I left the factory, someone had smashed the back of my new car, so Vera told me to go to Carl Masters' Garage, where I could get it fixed like new. He took some tools and beat the smashed parts until I thought the car was ruined, but his attempts were successful. While driving through Nevada one night, I had a fiat tire, and when I knocked on the door of a beautiful house, I was thoroughly amazed when the door was opened by LaVerne Robinson Elliott. While Carl Phillips, the famous radio announcer who was visiting the Elliotts, fixed my flat tire, LaVerne and I did some reminiscing. She to'd me that Willow Mae McCall was teaching business education at Ros- man High and that Fate Webs'er had graduated from West Point and was now an instructor there. California, here I came! Finally, I arrived in Hollywood, and on the corner of Hollywood and Vine I noticed a huge dress shop where ladies kept going in and out. There sat Mildred Chapman in her private office, talking to her partner, Avarie Powell, about their business. Having read in a paper about the Texas multi-millionaire, William Rogers, I decided to drive dawn and see if it could be the William I knew. When I got there, it proved to be the some one, but he had gone to Europe on a vacation. By this time, my finances were extremely low, so I re- turned to Brevard, where I met the former Opal McCall, who invited me to her home for the Garden Club that afternoon. She was hurrying home to check on the twins. At Rosman, I looked out the window, and, yes, it was Bud Case, Agriculture teacher at Rosman High, and Joe McCall, assistant farm agent, talking to a group of high school students. With all these voices, I begin to wake. fYawn-turn over-yawn-lazily arisej. Get up, it's time to go to school. Whew! what a dream! when I have part of another week to be a senior at Rosman High School. Prophet: ALICE OWEN
