Ladies and Gentlemen: The graduating class of 1954 sadly announces that there will be no prophecy this year. For many months we have searched high and low for a proper medium of prognostication, but have found none. Today we are unable to obtain a radio or television broadcast: McCarthy and Sgt. Friday are still chasing sub- versives over all channels. Since bowling has been legalized in New Dehli, India is no longer exporting crystal balls. The makers of Ouija boards are now all engaged in the manufacture of Scrabble sets. Shakespeare ' s three witches are dead. Fortune tellers are all in jail for refusing to invoke the privileges of the Fifth Amendment . . . Wait!!!! here comes Constatine the conqueror. What brings you here, Kid? Having been on the quest of flying saucers for over a year, I have come from the antipodes with the goods, — I mean the prophecy. The Prophecy? Yes, the Prophecy!!! Through the deserts and storms of Asia I travelled, through the province of Tan- shu; across the fields of Kan-gu; through the realm of Bow-ling; through the city of Ken-low; over the sands of Ken-shee; over the mountains of Hong-lee; until I viewed the ancient city of Chelsea, and from there I stepped off the roof of the City Hall into the fourth dimensional rocket launcher of Professor Nick Chiconas into the year 1974. I walked down the uptown streets in quest of saucers, but all I saw was the Beacon Chambers, mid-town headquarters of the ' 54 sons of Suffolk. Arriving at the gorgeous entrance resplendent in gray flannel and olive drab door knobs. I was escorted inside by the genial host, the Honorable John J. Bagdonawicz, president of the local Federal Reserve Bank. In one corner I found Levy begging successful business man, Levine for forty dollars. He wanted to purchase a pair of purple suede sneakers to go along with lemon colored slacks. When I queried Levine, why he sacrificed time and money on such a hopeless case, Levine replied, I like him; he s got plenty of taste. ' I walked up to a man who was pointed out as the Dean of Suffolk University. It was Jim Freely; when asked how he had reached such educational heights, he boasted, I simply thought faster and sharper than my predecessor. Having told me this, he invited me to attend a dinner at the Harvard Club, where Professor Tom Hig- gins, the noted authority on the Hannay. letters, was to be the principal speaker. The topic of his discussion was to be, The good old days are gone forever. Members of the international press were also in attendance; I approached Charlie Laubenstien. the eminent political commentator and editorial writer; I bought a paper from him. The news was pertinent to our class. From the headlines I learned that Col. Paul Mariaty. USAF, had broken the sound barrier, flying his wingless jet at the unheard of speed of 2000 mph. Further down the Journal was the ruling that Mariaty s feat will not be recorded as official, for he was discovered putting extra alcohol in his mouth prior to take-off. Turning the page I came upon an advertisement for Klayman ' s Klassy Dance Stu- dos, whose slogan began, When you learn to Rhumba with us, you wear out your trousers from the inside. Sandee Lydon and her magic violin is appearing nightly to provide the notes for Jack ' s classes. A small news item intrigued me; John Finnan, fourth vice-president of the Jan- itor ' s Local 5555, has just accepted a position as third vice-president of the Warren Brown Launderies Inc. On the Sport page I discovered that Tony Oliveri and Art Geller were voted the most valuable player awards in the American and National League of women voters. Turning from the Journal I snapped on the Television set now equipped with frequencies of all descriptions. It requires an electronic engineer ' s degree to operate. I summoned the employee of the Beacon -for this purpose; it was Sprague, who acquired his education by commuting between New York and Boston on a railroad train. Then came a commercial advertising Moccias police school for wayward police chiefs. Then came the news: This is John Camera Phillips bringing you last Thursday ' s news today. ' ' Phillips was sponsored by the makers of those extra-long kingsize cig- arettes, Old Bean, whose plug is No tobacco, just pure unadulterated soy beans. Ah there is good news tonight. Dr. Allen Kameras, the phony physician, has finally been apprehended by Detective Sgt. Fitzgerald. He was accused of injecting Adrenalin to la wstudents prior to bar exams. FLASH!!!!; the long lasting dispute between Prof. Kissenger and Dr. Jules Frank, both of project Lincoln, has at last come to an end. Kissenger insisted that the Atomic and Hydrogen reaction could be delayed long enough to run like H . . . !!!! Frank disagreed. In order to settle the dispute, they both left early yesterday morning for White Flats, Nevada. Kissenger attempted to show his theory to be true, but alas as luck would have it he was wrong. This experiment was valued at 2,000,000 million dollars. What some people will do for money! Next came a commercial: Kiddies, adolescents, delinquents, grownups, aged, would you like to enjoy life in the raw? Why of course you would. Can ' t you just picture yourself riding over and around bomb craters, through radio-active fields? . Wonderful, isn ' t it? Well don ' t delay any longer. Join the Bazakas Bicycle Club, now conveniently located in all 48 states. This is Phillips again folks; The Rogers, Rosen, Rubin and Tobin Publishing Co. today announced that their latest tune has just reached the million sales mark The aria is entitled, Grandma don ' t bother to wash your neck — You don ' t stand a chance with Gregory Peck. It should be noted that these men started their careers by yodel- ling through the halls of Suffolk University. Flash . . . Herb White has just finished his latest book entitled, How To Pass Insurance While Studying Contracts. The program closed on a commercial vien shouting the praises of Howard Johnson ' s new cabaret now conveniently located in downtown Rangoon, Burma. The announcer was Dave Caccivio, who said that John- son ' s products were the ones he used at home. I met Tom Black deeply engrossed in revising his new law dictionary when along came Jeanette Ablow to invite me to her house for dinner. She served a delicious mess of matzos and bagels topped off with a good swallow of Mogen David. Jeanette lamented that she missed the good old days. Desiring a bit of air, I went for a stroll. Outside the Metropolitan Theatre, now owned by the Multi-millionaires Caper- naros, Carrol, and Centauro — three thousand bobby-soxers, who had cut their classes in Humanities and English Lit., waited impatiently to see their idols, Ceaser La Rosa and Farley Delia Pianax in their new hit, Come Back Little Meatball. Passing a dingy, ill-lighted bar, I looked in. There I saw Sullivan and Marino sipping dime brews and debating the relative merits and prospects of Ten-dimensional movies. Turning a corner I bumped into Sherman with his hockey stick and catcher ' s mitt on his way to play Jack Keane in a round of golf. Seeing that I had walked too far away from the Beacon, I entered a rocket subway station. Immediately I noticed Pare trying to comb the few remaining hairs on his head. He related that he was attempting to use the angle of inclination to attract the attention of the pretty girl that stood only a few feet away. Upon entering the first car I found Traunstien at the controls. He complained that these new fandangled rocket coaches were too safe and easy to operate. He lamented that he had not struck a pedestrian or a vehicle for over three hours. As I entered the Beacon once again, I was sure that I would not meet any more strange sights. However, the first person I met was Don Anderson, who was still try- ing to figure out Dr. Anderson ' s favorite brainbuster. The problem went like this: When the perpendicular bisector does not coincide with the tangential velocity along the exgernal periphery of the right rear wheel of a 1954 Cadillac car, which is travelling along Route 1, curved at a radius of 600 feet, and the speed is estimated at 60 miles per hour, what is the angle of inclination to the bisector??? I told him I could not assist him unless I knew first whether the car had conventional or hydromatic drive. Just then I was greeted by Sy Horovitz, the famed criminal lawyer, who told me he was working on two very important cases ... of bourbon. Sitting beside Sy was Judge Sayers, who was actively preparing the docket for the coming session of his court. One case was Clark vs. Clark, and involved domestic prob- lems, and the other, State of Massachusetts vs. Anton Kane et al who have been indicted for confiscating Mr. McNichols ' false plate and imbedding gum in Dean Goodrich ' s moustache. Suddenly I turned and thought the building was toppling. A horde thundered over us, leaving me and five other patrons stretched out on a mat. Dazed, I picked myself up. Oh, explained the janitor, whom I recognized at Tiro, The was Krinsky, the Income Tax collector and Prof. Mahoney going over a 1954 Tax problem, and they usually let themselves go. It happens every afternoon about this time. After being carried to the stool, I was visited by Kaplan, who, I was afraid, would talk my ear off. However, he made some very interesting conversation when he told me about some of the other ' 54 Sons of Suffolk, who were unable to attend this convo- cation this evening. Here is the important news: The reason why Zouvelis, the fore- man of the Pitts Construction Co., is not here tonight is probably due to his anxiety concerning his new building, which is exquisite in design, marvelous in structure, but has no windows. It is rumored that Zouvelis ' father-in-law is in the electrical fixture business. Senator Peabody, who is in Washington at the present time, writes to say that it is so hot down there, that he is seriously considering a trip to the moon by Air Express. Irene O ' Leary ' s new play, Uncle Saul ' s Mansion, laid an atomic bomb at the Capitol Theatre. Speaking of plays, Henry Crabtree, the noted Shakespearian thespian, put his new Macbeth on the boards last week, but critic Charlie Denninger of the Brooklyn Bird panned it as having more ham than Hamlet. Word has just been received from Sweden that Anthony Billie has been awarded the Nobel Prize for speech and elocution. Upon receiving the award, Mr. Billie ap- proached the rostrum with grace, dignity, and poise and uttered, quote: I canna usa the dough , unquote. Newspaper reporter Covner was last heard of when he left for the jungles of West Roxbury to get the inside dope on the cannibals. Ins tead it is reported that the man- eaters got the dope in a boiling pot of nitric acid. Now it behooves me as it has never behooven me before, to bid you farewell with the warning, Don ' t let this happen to you. Also remember this moral as you sail or stumble through life, Good always triumphs over evil because its nicer. - 2 CANTEEN SERVICE 80 Coolidge Hill Road WATERTOWN, MASS. GAR MiSi!™™ INC - ?
