1929 - THE MAROON AND GRAY - 1929 CLASS PROPHECY TH was a June day in 1939. It was too hot to work inside, so 53243 Chief Justice Taft informed me that we would work on the lawn. My dictator paused in his work and called my attention to the soft drone of an airplane motor. He informed me that an unknown pilot was manoeurvering around up there for an endurance test. Then-Crash! Down it came. We ran to the scene and the pilot climbed out of the wreck seemingly unhurt. To my very great astonish- ment the unknown aviator turned out to be none other than my old class- mate, Helen Harris. My employer gave me the rest of the afternoon off. I inquired about our graduating class of '29. To my surprise Malcolm was superintendent of good old R. H. S. Marjorie, too, chose the high school for her occupation. She was the commercial teacher there. Madeline was operating the Garden Bower Tea Room. I told Helen how glad I was that they were still at home. We walked along the avenue in Washington, D. C. and stopped at the -Hotel Congress for lunch. While talking over our meal who should walk in but Robert Lewis. He recognized us and we were glad to hear that he was physical director at the University of Washington. Hazel Rinker, we learned, was to return the next week on the Mauretania from Paris where she had been honeymooning for the last month. Bob told us that Esther Faust had become the private secretary to John N. Willys of Willys Over- land. When we mentioned Clarence, Bob said he had turned out to be the promising truant officer of Wood County. Alphonse LaHote and Edward Schifgen had taken up professional athletics for their life work, and were playing with the Toledo Mud Hens. Louis was the manual teacher of Maumee High School. Bob told us that Joe Golbinec was attending a prominent engineering school and was ad- vancing rapidly in mechanics. Bob Williams had become manager of the Rossford branch of Kroger Stores. What had become of the Hamel Sisters? Surely one would think they were settled down to a peaceful married life. To our surprise Frances was still unbetrothed and a professor at Bowling Green Normal College and Lucille was a bookkeeper for Mr. Koch of Lasalle Xz Koch. Rowena, we heard, was in training in a famous New York Hospital and Sophia was managing store No. 2 of the Kusner Chain Stores. Jack McCaslin was attending the Ohio Miami Medical College, taking a post- graduate course. Burt and Warren were sub-contractors for A. Bentley Sz Sons Co. What has become of Mary, doesn't any of us know? Why don't you know ? smiled Helen, she has finally realized her ambition. She belongs to a well-known dramatic club of California and is to appear with Buddy Rogers in his latest talkie, Modest Mary . -W. C. fPage 181
