7fze lm SENIOR COLLEGE WILL AND PROPHECY CCo1z!inuedfro1n Page 20, Mr. Hoot-Owl shook his head sadly. Hlim afraid she isn't much help in that capacity. One look at her and all her husband's patients get well immediately. Too bad-she's ruined a line practice. Isabel Emerson, who leaves all her various black and white keys to Holly Lock-wood upon gradua- tion, becomes one of the greatest musicians of 195 I. Virginia McLean cuts short her startling rise to musical fame to marry a handsome foreigner and spend her life contentedly icing birthday cakes. Another member of your class who attains national prominence is Bette O'Neill. She is awarded a sterling silver horse for the Best Woman Athlete of I951. There's no need to ask you what becomes of Barbara Shields, is there? That's all quite definite now. Yes, you're right, agreed the blinking Hoot-Owl, but there's a surprise element that creeps in somewhere. It'll be a pleasant shock to several of her friends, I believe. Betty Barber Maynard, who leaves her black hair to Helen Tully, is destined to become the advertising Manager of the New York Times. And speaking of hair, Bernice Heard presents her long, lovely, luscious locks to the shortest-haired girl in school. She feels that in her new position as Consult- ing Lexicographer of the World a few yards of hair is just a nuisance. Barbara Armentrout, better known as the queen of socks, leaves her knitting needles to Madeline Schloss in order to take up a profession where her popularity and friendliness receive full recognition. Her official title is Head Hostess of the United States Navy. You know, Mr. Hoot-Owl, I've always felt that Josie Lewis would really do something important. What about her? 'flosieis job actually is the most important in the world, replied the Hoot-Owl when the reverbera- tions from a particularly loud clap of thunder had ceased echoing. She conducts a school for children and is famous all over the world as a true exponent of Chaucer's theory: And gladly learn and gladly teach. i' -. Mildred Rogers, wh, esgher subdued alto to Barbara Adams, is the Hrst graduate of your class to receive her Master's e from Columbia University. Her thesis was entitled The Importance of Chaucer in the Modern World. Also at Columbia is Katherine Williams, worldafamous masseuse, who takes the kinks out of tired students nerves. Gloria Sullivan, who leaves her artistic ability to Flossie Tucker to help her with her biology drawings, is coming out in a whirl of debutante parties in Cleveland. CShe waited until she got to be a big girl-lj And speaking of Cleveland, Agnes Swain and Ned are living contentedly in a little bungalow in a suberb of that city. In the silence that followed these words, I realized that the storm was about over, for the moon struggled through the clouds and a pale ray of light glistened on the wet window sill. The Hoot-Owl ruffled his feathers as though preparing to fly away. There are still some more, I reminded him. . Yes, I'm not forgetting. Betsy Davis, who leaves her blushing beauty to all the little apple blossoms, reaches new heights as Queen of the Carburetors at the big IQSI automobile show, featuring the latest car models from all over the world. And Mary Evelyn Shelton, because of her promptness and dependability, becomes the time- keeper for the Elgin,Watch Company. Before they leave the factory, all the watches are set and reg- ulated by her. The Gretna songbird, Kathryn Colbert, bequeathes her bass-baritone to Gertie jenny Lind jones after her marriage to Marko Maloff, the world's greatest tenor. She feels that one singer to a family is enough-so all her children take dancing. 'fOf course you know of Kit Benson's success as an army ofhccr's wife. But she is also gaining in- ternational fame for her great epic poem, The Song of Roland. Alice Fulton leaves her serenity and poise to all the College Seniors of next year. They'll need it, and she won't-at least, she'll have to keep only enough to carry her through her big church wedding. Because of their ability to keep up with anything new, Polly Rhyne and Elsie Garvin become the very modern hostesses on the new, streamlined submarine, The Firh. And that, said the Hoot-Owl, Hying down from his perch, takes care of all who really get somewhere. But, wait! I cried. You haven't said anything about me yet. Will I ever-3 Quoth the Hoot-Owl, Nevermore. MARY EVELYN ,IEF F ERSON
