T IS 2:15 o'clock in the year 1035. 1 enter the physics :lass room. take my seat, and wonder what the lesson was supposed to be about. Mr. Pratt takes his book in hand and begins to explain the theory of spectroheliographology. My thoughts begin to wander farther--farther-farther- lt is 1960 and 1 End myself hurrying along a crowded street. 1 am on mv way to a distant city to deliver a lecture on physics. As 1 smile at Policeman James Foreman. a man bumps into mc. 1 stare into his familiar face. The beard and horn-rimmed glasses almost deceive me. This distinguished professor proves to be none other than Keith Tobin. 1 arrive at the airport and climb into the plane piloted by Claude Taver- nier. As the stewardess makes her rounds. 1 recognize in her l.oretta Pritchard. A commotion is raised behind me and 1 turn to Hnd Senator Richard Wade being accosted by the newspaper reporter. Vern Dexter. who is being withheld bv the fo1'mer's secretaries. Laura Fuller' and Eleanor Engler. ldly picking up a news- paper. 1 am struck by the headline. Epoch-Making Discovery Made in Chemis- try. The famous chemist who is making history is Willard Bowers with his colleague. Richard Owen. This newspaper proves to contain other fruitful news -Edward Clayton has completed plans for sending a remote control space-ship to Mars. A picture on the front page shows Don Driskel. in artist smock and beret. and Ruth Bonfoev receiving the Nobel prizes in art and literature. The sheet of advertisements finds Betty Ann Archer and Luella I-lanneman. commer- cial artists: Bullock's drugs. Mademoiselle Worline's Beauty Parlori Weiandt's Electrical shop: and Leatherman's milk from contented cows. The sports page yields the latest victory of Purdue's football team coached by Pete Dal Ponte. and a lesson in golf by professional Bob Zander. Evangelist Roswell Rice is tour- ing the country. The stewardess turns on the radio and. after the Boston Sym- phony Orchestra program in which Beulah Behrents is playing. we hear the trio composed of Maribeth Avery, Harriet Herndon. and Ardith Lovejoy in their daily concert. When the plane lands. 1 find Dr. Russell Carlisle and nurse, Gert- rude Tice, with the ambulance. 1 decide to go to a theatre and choose one which 1 discover is owned by Richard NVhee1er. The hero is Bud Rifenberg playing with Geraldine ludwig. The villain is Eugene Dircks. lAnd we thought he would be a football coachfl Bertha Brown still has the comedy role. The previews forecast Doug Garrison and the special attractions contain the Euelling twins. 1 hear some familiar-sound ing giggles behind me and see Ardith Pulver and Mary Lucas--still inseparablef In my conversation with them 1 learn that Maxine Dunn is teaching 'AABC's in Welburn's private school: Mary Frances Anderson is secretary to John Mikosz. sports promoter: Gerald Bohm and June Rockwell are still on the farm: Mar- garet Krull is-but 1 never will know the rest of this choice gossip. There is a terrible crash and 1 find myself in the physics room. The gong has rung. 1 must cease my dreaming and go to physics lab. 7V1'ui'r1n Smilh. CLASS PROPHECY
