RJ-I. S. THE COMET 1 9 2 3 Senior Class Prophecy It was a hot, sultry day-just the day for weird, fantastic dreams and as I was feeling very drowsy, I soon drifted into a deep slumber. My sleep was filled with many strange scenes, but there were some which impressed me very much, and which I remembered longer than the others. They were pictures of the future, about the year 194-5, showing the effects that time had had upon the class of '23, Although some of it was rather hazy yet I will endeavor to set before you as clearly as possible, this dream. The first scene was that of a convent in Switzerland. where upon the beautiful grounds, I saw two nuns whom I recognized as Phyllis and Frances. They had enjoyed the gay life while young, but as they grew older, had turn- ed to more serious things. I talked with them and it was they that told me that our friends, Red Sullivan and Earl Smith were Alpine guards and notorious bandits. I next was in a beautiful city which I recognized as Paris. I was walking down one of the most fashional streets when I came to a gold lettered sign upon a shop window which read: p HMADAM DE CEIT, GOWNS AND COSTUMES ' I stepped inside. The most conspicuous figure in the apartment was a tall. dark, elaborately dressed woman. Imagine my amazement when I recognized her as Anne Martin. The scene nc-w changed to Sweden to a small farm, in one of the fields of which I saw a prosperous looking man. It was our old classmate, Ole- returned to the home of his ancestors. I soon found myself in Oxford University. It was with the greatest dif- ficulty that I recognized the stately figure of the classic professor as LeRoy Blacker. . ' I then seemed to be nearing home. On the steamship, I met Bessie Roberts, a radio operator. It was from her that I learned that Marion Shy was editor of W'hiz Bang and other Fawcett publications, and that Carl XV ebb was cub reporter on the New York Herald. She had also heard over the radio the facts of the much talked about divorce case of the country-4 Harold Greene was divorcing Faye Smith-Greene, to marry our old friend, Tillie. In New York came new revelations. Lee Lundy was a broker on Wal.l street: Hortense Davis was a cartoonist for Life: Harold Hawk was the most popular matinee idol of the day, probably as popular as the former VVallace Reid: and Edna Myers and Isabel Wilson were making their debut at the early ages of 33 and 37 respectively. A At night I found myself in the largest and most magnificent of Broad- way theatres. The special feature was The Hollow VVig , written by the noted author, Mary Hansen, and played by Lulu Nicholson. An added at- traction was a dance by Edgar Redford and partner, Pansy Stites, who had Page Twen ty-Four
