In the box seats, some of the celebrities are Priscilla Garay, Leroy Mitchell, and Albert Peluso. Tomorrow night David Kittle has a violin solo. His talents are said to equal those of Jack Benny.

After a tour of Europe, enjoying the scenes of the Tower of Pisa, museums, etc., Rosemary Toth: Fidcs Truant, and Bernice Watson are returning to America with great enthusiasm. Eugene Hatlak is now coaching the basketball team at Michigan State. He is teaching all the brilliant tactics that he learned at Southwestern.

Returning from the 1960 Olympics games and re- ceiving a tremendous ovation is Bob Hickson, the Worlds Renowned Knitting Champion. Recently discharged from Girl Scouts are Walter Brannan and Charles Pelfrey, because of their perpetual habit of burning the morning toast. Now as the prophets look into the mystic ball, there is a loud explosion as the orb bursts into a million pieces so we shall not know our own future.

In the dark backgrounds of the village of Delray, two Southwestern students happened to meet a weird person gazing over her crystal. She had the ability to foretell the future and was going about the procedure of bringing to her vision the mystic futures of persons whose names jhe mentioned. Our two spies, as they secretly listened, memorized her methods and techniques. The students of the January ’49 class obtained the fol- lowing information of the future from them: At Elise Hardy’s rest home, we come across Eliza beth Borbas and Mary Czegledi after their recent break- down, (shortage of males). In the heart of Delray, we find Harry Arkelian and Appo Zamanian managing the “French Hat Shoppe . The new model, worn by Betty Ryno, is a hat that Del- ray dust will not penetrate. In the 1960 Olympic diving contest for married women, we find Shirley Ambrose and Athena Markus doing a fine execution of the “belly smasher”. On all main street corners, wc find the widely pub- lished paper, everyone's News, edited by Lirio Angelo sante. Starting as cub reporter is Eugene Kuthy cherish- ing his one inch spread on page 36. At our latest fashion show, we found Carol Koche- var and Angeline Mandziuk modeling the new 1850 bathing suits. As president of the Young Men’s Club, we find Dolores Farkas giving lectures on “How To Get a Date”. We find Floyd Compton, head editor of “Love” magazines, w riting his newest story, “Real Heart Aches”, guaranteed to make bold boys good. One of his most attentive and ardent readers is Willy Harbowy who buys two copies in case one wears out. Going on his 1313th flight, with his cat Blackie, we find test pilot Ralph Brehmer testing the new rubber band engine invented by Richard Eix. 12A Prophets Reveal by Dawn Bergeron Judge Joe Rizo is now presiding over a case in New York Circuit Comt, the case being between Bob Walin- ske and George Simons. It seems Bob sold George the Brooklyn Bridge without giving him a bill of sale. Angelo Tremonti is the greatest surgeon i.i the medical association. He is recognized by everyone as “butterfingers” because of his limberness in all surgical movements. His ideal, “Doctor Mitty”. Frank Lipchik, a devoted bachelor, was sole judge at a beauty contest in Florida yesterday. Today the au- thorities are rejudging the contest. Running the Main Cafe at Miami, Florida, is James (double deal) Czegledi and Frank (nimble fingers) Mol- nar. One of the patrons who plans to buy the place is Eugene Didyk with a new system he calls a sure thing. With position of bouncer, is Richard Redmer who keeps things in order. Down in the Delray Opera House, we find Julia Berna and Rose Marie Galitz singing a duet from Car men. At a Detroit Lion’s game, taking pictures at every angle, including from the goal posts, are Frank Sokolitz and Bob Bone. Enrolled at Loraine Masuch's “Art of Sewing” college, we find Sophia Nairn and Angeles Kasparian. Sophia is knitting socks and Angeles is trying a new crea- tion, fingerless gloves.

Still enrolled at Yale, we find Agnes Kizner and El- vera Holthus. Today’s game in football is between the Boll Wea- vels and the Cotton Bowl Eleven.

Mary Magusin and Merry Rambeau, together at Sun Valley are teaching Mary Ann Rosnyai the graceful art of skiing, which they have mastered. Today is the day they go off the jumps. George Krikorian and Steve Peters are stretcher-bearers. A remark from the boys: “Business is wonderful.” Page Fourteen
