The Shulllon Having had three -enjoyable years together, these Shull- ities go forth into a new field, eager to make good, and to be an honor to Shull and to the Red and Blue. - Class Prophecy lThe Forlune Teller of l'he Circusl Let us come up close to the tent of the gypsy and listen to the future as it is disclosed. Here come some people from 9-l, the college-preparatory section of Shull. Wonder what fate has in store for them! Listen, the gypsy is talking now. Fred Walter is the first one in the tent. I see strange sights, in the crystal which tell me wonderful things about the pupils of Shull Junior High School. Fred Walter, you are to become Secretary of the Treas- ury. Clf so, goodbye Treasuryj Grace S-eip, you will become a Latin teacher. Have pity on your pupils. Ray Moser will be striving to prove evolution, and June Kelchner will be teaching the art of reducing in her own school. Betty Keck will be illustrating for magazines. Dale Schrader will b-e successor to Walter Winchell, and Robert Howard will be editor of the New York Times. Another familiar face comes into the picture. It is Robert Sharkey taking place of Mr. Everitt as Shull's gym instructor. The intercollegiate football champions will boast of hav- ing Victor Cuvo and James Miller as the strength of their back field. There seems to be a lot of trouble but now the scene is clearing, and it proves to be Robert Sassaman working on a poor victim who has the toothache. Paul Mclnerney will be a Math teacher and Tony Em- bordino will be a radio star succeeding Harpo Marx. Leah Gaffney will also be a radio star succeeding Gracie Allen. Next come the 9-2 pupils. Sara Morrison will become a great comedienne. Ruth Haas will fulfill her childhood ambition and become a beautiful clothes model, while Grace Glory will win her fame by singing over the radio. Arlene Oldt will at last settle down to a quiet life, while Margaret Seip will be playing guard on a World famous bas- ketball team. twelve

The ShulI'l'on LITERARY Class His'I'ory It was during the worst depression the world had ever known that men were busily engaged in a relief project at the Shull Junior High School: blasting was necessary many times. As one of these explos.ions was taking place, a large rock was dislodged from the bank, under which was found a sheet of paper-old, but neatly folded. Upon examination, it was found to be a document issued to a group of boys and girls, giv- ing them permission to evade daily Shull Junior High School for a period of three years, but with several provisions-that they make good use of their time, be loyal to their school, and protect its property. They would then be known as loyal Shul1ites, Early in September, 1932, anxiously and fearfully, these same Shullites ' entered the master building, located at the corner of Berwick and 'S-eitz Streets, for the first time. Under the guidance of Mr. Stecker and his assistants, a place was found for all. , The year went by in a humdrum sort of way, and when the summer vacation came, it meant little more than just a good time, exc-ept that each p-erson was. to go on to a higher grade when next the school bells would ring. In the fall, the same group with less eager faces but brighter eyes marched in an orderly manner to their various classrooms, anxious to g-et started on th-eir year's work and show their scholastic, athletic, and musical abilities. This year they proved to be a help rather than a hindrance to their neighbors, and it was with regret that they departed to their various homes for a two months' rest. ' Many ev-ents took place during the following yearp The Shullton required much attention, the operetta much 'prac- tice, and the lessons much study. To the best all-round boy and girl representing his and her class, the American Legion offered an award. The posture contest was held in which many of the Shu1l- ites competed. The three best boys and girls were given pins: gold, silver, and bronze-according to their rating of posture. On the twenty-second of May, a celebration was held and the May Queen was crowned, various dances were enjoyed, and the relay races proved exciting to the end. eleven

The Shullion Raymond Lowe will become a famous, actor playing the role of a small boy. Grow up, Ray. I also see another Raymond whoselast name proves to be Youngkin. The picture shows him clearly as a great mathe- matician. I'm not surprised. Earl Staats will further his ambition as a muscle-man. Beware, girls. Next, 9-3's. William Edwards, I s.ee in the globe a bright future for you. You will have yourchoice of being either a clown or a midget in the Barnum and Bailey Circus. You, Patricia Callery, have a bright 'future also. The crystal shows a beautiful young dancer stealing the hearts of the spectators. Have pity, Pat, on those boys. And you, William Rabich, will ris-e in the scientific world as a member of the Inventor's Asspciation, You have a helper in the person of Donald Moser. Wanda Encelewski, the future is glowing with a place in the operatic world for you. You will have many hardships and disappointments, but don't let that discourage you. I s-ee Mary Elizabeth Jordan trudging along the street blowing away on her big bass horn. In the same line are the 9-3 trumpeters-Robert Meifert, George McMackin, and Mar- guerite Werner. Three clarinet players, in the band whom I recognize are Lois Barclay, Arlene Snyder, and Margaret Brown. The 9-4's are the next in line to hear their fate. Jack Mclnerney will be known as The Father of the Chain Letter and Jack Altemus will be his faithful assistant. Orville Seiple will be our future president and pull us out of this depression. Hurry and grow up, Orville. Jack Moser will be in Mexico courting pretty Spanish girls. Steve Denes will be the president of a large bus.iness con- cern. And last, but not least, 9-5. George Round will beco-me a sailor in the U. S. Navy, while Bertram Morrow and Fred Lesher will be forming an orchestra of nothing but trombones. Howard Osmun is going to be a high-jumper while Tony Maida will succeed Joe Penner on the radio and stage. You'll have to buy a duck, Tony. Charles Whitesell and William Leh will prosper as farmers. Having heard all, the ninth grades of Shull turned slowly away to seek the fortunes pointed out to them. The world has much in store for you, but it must Hrst be found. thirteen
