CLASS PRGPHECY Prominently arriving in Sharon Hill via that exclusive mode of travel known as riding the rods, we saun- tered toward the nearest dwelling in hopes of a handout. To our surprise we were greeted by Richard McLarnon, our former classmate, who upon inquiry disclosed that he was now Philadelphia's foremost designer of women's clothing. Asking about some of the other members of the Class of '44 we learned that Charles Hild is now Head Usher at Fay's Theater, while Florence Cherry and William Porter are now the famous Boogie Woogie Duet currently featured in Charles Ammon's vaude- ville act. Having now eaten what little was to be found in Richie's refrigerator, we bade him a fond farewell and ambled toward the center of town, where we were all but swept off our feet by two of the borough's most efficient street cleaners, Winfield Fraser and Richard AKelly. We would liked to have stopped and chatted a while but these two industrious fellows could only stop work long enough to say hello. Continuing on our aim- less way we heard the unfamiliar chords of an operatic selection. By peering through a window we observed jack Nash, who was giving ballet lessons. After closer inspection we made out the forms of his pupils who were none other than Mary Lou Collins, Marion Hallas, and Lillian Augustus. As we were contentedly watching the remarkable performance of jack's protegees we were startled by the -sound of a man's sobs across the street. We crossed over to see if we could be of assistance and found Charles Shaffer, now the town burgess. We asked him what the trouble was and found that he was crying because Roosevelt had been elected for the sixth term. We tried to console him but making no progress we continued our stroll and saw, in the midst of a crowd of small children, Bob Lorenz playing a street organ while Marie Subers was gathering in the pennies with a tin cup. Upon questioning Bob we learned that Janice Heckman is the chief entertainment at Ma's tavern, while Edgar Reed is now the town's chief of police since Herb Allen resigned. Reed's right hand man is Francis Curry, while his chief operator of the police radio is Kitty QPistol-Packingj Desmond. Ed Browne, current heavyweight champion, was last reported to have weighed 265 pounds. Further quizzing disclosed that Anne Yurgensen, who married an up-state farmer, is now working at the Farmers Market with Marjorie Duncan. Guistwhite is the head football coach at the University of Pennsylvania and Gloria Hoffecker is her able assistant. Bud Yocum is now a grease monkey at Bill Hilbert's garage while Howard Larer is teaching English at Sharon Hill High School and Gladys Lott is working for Ajax cleaners. We left Leo at this point to look for a decent meal, not having been satisfied by Rich's meager offering. As we walked down Sharon Ave., we came upon a new establishment, a high-class restaurant. We sighted a service entrance on the side and sneaking past a door- man, made our way into the kitchen hoping to high pressure the cook into giving us a meal. We were utterly astounded when we recognized the chef to be jack Carlisle. He seemed glad to see us and offered us some of his favorite concoctions. We, under the theory that God helps those who help themselves, Hlled our stomachs and relaxed as jack answered our questions about former classmates. He told us that Joan Charles is the cashier at the Parker Theater and Betty Milne is the Goalie for the Philadelphia Falcons, while Peg Warrington is a jiu-jitsu expert. Patsy Meitner manu' factures Man Traps and Mrs. Long, one of our class sponsors, is the Chief Sales Manager for The Sunshine Christmas Card Company. Betty Ford is the hat check girl at Winther's night club. At this hot spot Ruth Rose is the featured vocalist with Al Umstead and his orchestra. As we talked, two familiar hgures, jean Dahl- quist and Norma Kopp, breezed in with dirty dishes. We didn't want to get jack in trouble so we left as we had come, this time waving to a surprised doorman, whom we recognized to be jim Gallagher. As we turned into a side street we were attracted by the ramblings of a circus barker who, upon investigation, turned out to be our chubby schoolmate Forrest Montgomery. We were surprised when we were informed by his advertising that among the exhibitions of the show were joy Har- rison, fat ladyg Ida Hafner, a bare-back trick riderg Lois Rice, the much publicized tattooed ladyg and a pair of motorcycle dare-devils, Emily Amy and Frances Griffith. We would like to have stayed in Sharon Hill longer and learned more about the Class of '44, but the open road beckoned us and as we hurried to the freight station we saw the stalwart figure of Mitchell fCrashJ Davis picking cabbage from his patch. Of course he was still proudly wearing his football letter obtained in '44, Much to our dismay our train arrived on time and we boarded the 5:15 Cattle Express, bidding farewell to dear old Sharon Hill and bound for parts unknown.
