CLASS PROPHECY This story is true. Only the facts have been altered! My name is Miss Brown, most people call me Brownie, My job - Senior Class sponsor. On May 24, 1959 at 8:00 A.M., the call came in. It was the chief. I could tell from the crackle C or was it cacklej over the telephone that it was a BIG assignment. My E.S.P. paid off - it was a BIG job! A thorough check on the Class of.1954 was needed stat. Rumors had been coming in at the T.S.O. about them - my job - get the facts! Played a hunch - felt that one member of the class would have the latest dope. Always did associate her with that word. Lucky break for me - letter received from her which said: My dear Brownie, It was nice to receive your long, newsy letter - never knew a person could say so much with just six words 'Latest dope on 1954 class needed. Of course, you were right - if you want the dope, see me. As you know, I collected a portion of the money for our Annual and for some reason many of the contributors feel quite a close relationship to me -- about three dollars' worth as a matter of fact. Well, down to the news of the class. I must go on record as saying some of this is just hearsay or do I mean heresy? Some of the girls have really capitalized on their talents. Marti Houston is one of them - she is now Chief Art Illustrator for the Missouri Nurse. I have heard a few comments about the censoring of her cartoons though! joan Yeokum is now working at the St. Louis San. Even has her own set of keys! Alice White was just chosen as Miss Kansas of 1959f' Seems she took stretch- ing exercises and is now a tall, glamorous blonde. Nancy Nodler is campaigning at the present time for the office of Mayor of Kansas City, Kansas. Always knew she was a born politician. Bonnie Hynson is now AdmiraliFirst Class aboard the Mighty Mo - still has to work night duty though. Anna Ruth Stein is President of the African League of Male Nurses' Association. Joan York is assistant to Betty Crocker - still collects recipes but I guess her cook- ing skill is not too good - has to work nights as a nurse in order to feed herself. Punkin Selby has just published her latest book of poetry entitled Love and Life or L'Amour but no more. A jean Gott has attained the position of head matron at the Second Chance Home - old friends welcome. Joan Bottoms after completing her master's degree in psychiatry is now head nurse on her favorite floor at St. Luke's. , p Diane Abercrombie is now serving as Speaker of the House in our nation's capitol. At last, she's getting paid for it! Joan Trewett finally moved to Alaska - has a very profitable business selling ice cubes to the Eskimos up there. Even though Dixie Bramhall now resides in far off Hong Kong, it is said that her ghost can be seen at the witching hour haunting the hallowed halls of General Hospital. Elaine I-Iause is now editor of the latest nursing publication How to Snow Yguf Way Through Nurses' Training.
