[SV -= PROPHECY If I were to prophesy what the members of the Senior class of '42 will be doing in '52, I would begin with Kendrick Brownell. He is bustling back and forth before his Chemistry class, Kendrick just can't seem to understand why his pupils don't crave for knowledge as he did. The war is over, and this blond, young man in his blue naval uniform disembarking from the ship has done his part to win it. Of course, if I told you the girl waiting for him on shore is Ardis, it would not be hard to recognize Clifford Carr. If I were to guess where we would find Pat Proc- tor, I would say that Pat has 2 or 3 children around her. She cares for them all day. Oh yes, Pat gradu- ated from Cobleskill and is now a governess. Helen and Francis are now married. Francis works three days out of the week, but today on his day of work I see him seated in a big easy chair be- side the radio. In one hand he has a cigarette and in the other a book—could it be a comic book—oh, no, Francis has outgrown those. Helen is busy work- ing near hime If I were to ask you to guess who this nice look- ing girl is climbing from that airplane, looking so neat and trim in her uniform, it would not be hard to guess, would it? Yes, it is Aria Brownell She is a graduate nurse and Is now an air hostess on the transport. Cecil Bartlett is the only farmer of the class of '42. He has his own farm and seems to enjoy him- self farming all alone. If I were asked where our candy manager, Elsa Garceau, is working, I would immediately say at Pine Camp. She is a stenographer in an office there. El- sa must have had a pull somewhere because she got a job without even going to school.
