FORECAST OF THE FUTURE The old gypsy slowly turned the ball of crystal that she held in her wrinkled, skinny fingers. Then looking intently upon the pictures that flickered here and there around the surface of the crystal, she said in a low voice: Upon the horizon of fate, I see for the class of nineteen hundred and forty- five, a forecast of their future thirty years from now. Happy, yes: successful, yes: tragic, perhaps: but what is to be, will be. ln the first picture, l see a busy street corner in Chicago-there dressed in a blue uniform with brass buttons is the traffic cop, Betty Barnett. Who is this driving up in that stunning model T? Oh, yes, Mr. and Mrs. C. D. Torr, with Mrs. Torr holding Iunior. With them is Miss Eva Nell Woodlock, who has not yet decided upon the unlucky rnan, but ah, yes, is still being courted by many persistent admirers. ln the next picture I see the former Edythe Chamness, who has just written an outstanding play entitled 'The True Love of Trudy Turnipseedf According to the present outlook Paul Alsmeyer, world famous director, will direct the masterpiece. The following compose the cast: Trudy ........................................................... .,,..... V irginia Wingert Her Love ........ .........,.,..,.,.. B ill Engle The Villian ..i,.... .,...... D uane Robertson The End ......................................t..,.............................. Don Powderly With these great actors and actress, there is no doubt that 'The True Love of Trudy Turnipseed' will be voted the most outstanding play of the year. At this point the old gypsy looked into the crystal ball with perplexity Writ- ten upon her severe features, then, after a few moments of silence she resumed, I see a large ship sailing toward the Mediterranean. The passengers of this ship are going to Africa to trace their ancestors. Don Hammer, skipper of the fContinuecl on Page ZO.j
