CLASS PROPHECY I went to the great fortune teller, Allah Hokum, the other day and. being curious about the old Senior Class of 1940, I asked him to peer into his crystal ball and see what he could see. This is what the crystal ball revealed. Spencer Morris and Graham French did so Well selling hot dogs at the Senior Frolic that they decided to make it their life's work. They have taken over Ted's and Kal's Driv-in and use as their motto, Indigestion won't happen here. Their efficient waitress is Lorraine Richardson, running in and out between the cars collecting tips and flirting with the good looking men. Ernest Taylor has risen from the masses and is now one of the country's leading capitalists. He started his blazing career as a mere garter salesman and is now holding the nation's socks up with a piece of elastic. His janitor and oflice boy is Wallac.e Hitt, who dreams of the day far off when he will be a garter magnet like his boss. The Vernon Jensen-Margie Taylor romance has finally gone on the rocks. fThey are married now.j Vernon has recently been elected president of the Woman Hater Club of Arizona, while Margie is filing suit for divorce in Reno. Jean Crandall is having a hard time driving trucks for uno who. In her spare time she is teaching Paul Jr. how to be a soda jerker and tap dance just like his mother. Nick Gardia has just lately become the proud owner of the valley's most popular night spot, Whoopie Hall. As his entertainers we find Teresa Guitterez and Alfrel Figueroa jitter-bugging all over the place. Terrell Blake is in Hollywood serving behind the scenes as a' makeup expert. He gives the actresses that delicate blush which he possesses from telling all of those none too nice jokes in study hall. He has just made up Leona Holitza, who has taken Ann Sheridan's place as the new Oomph girl of America. Betty Baker has had so much experience in editing the annual that she was appointed editor-in-chief of the True Confession magazine. The principal writer on her staff is Sarah Mae Clifford who has made up some real good confessions. This is no time for obituaries, but Lavon Blake, the tennis champion, was just bumped off in Chicago by Playboy Irving Plotkin while in one of his famous rages. The great criminal lawyer, Brainstorm Hugh Morris. saved Playboy Plotkin from hanging by the neck until dead on the plea of insanity. The Barney girls, Velate and Norma, are running a boarding house near Solomonville. Their star boarder is Norman Johnston, who is now a success- ful Fuller Brush salesman. Romance seems to be developing between him and Dorothy Layton, who still lives on her father's dairy farm. The U1-ufilla--Pugie I Il'I'llf!j'f0 u r
