class prophecy Hello Central! Give me I-2-3-O Brighton Road. Hurry!!! lt's very important. Is that you, Jane? Well-this is Beverly. When did I arrive home? Oh, I flew home this afternoon and am going to stay for the holi- days. But listen, the reason I called was to ask you if you had heard the latest about Jeanne Fosdick. You know-Jeanne, the nurse they have had such a time with down in Ohio. Well, guess what she did? She pushed the wrong button in the elevator and she and her patient, Paul Sloan, who was to be discharged today, have been stuck in it for several days Yes, and Maxine Lance is simply furious. This is the fourth time she has been all ready to get married and then been left waiting at the church. I guess the minister, Ernest Cap- ron, has almost given up all hope of ever re- ceiving his SI98. Can they get them out? Really I don't know, but they've got two of the most expert people on the case.. Who are they? Certainly you remember that talkative chap, Jack Hughey. They say he's a super sleuth at getting people out of trouble. His assistant, Betty Hagenbuch, works out all the details for him. Are they that way about each other? To tell the truth, I haven't heard, but they say he has a black eye, if that means anything. What!! No! Really, I can't imagine Charles Henke teaching ballet. Why did he decide to do that?? Oh, he broke his leg trying to teach Rodney Everhart to jitterbug!! Now isn't that the limit!! They say that crazy scientist, Dick Schoch, has blown up his laboratory again. Thatmust be about the fifth time he's done it. You'd think that he and his assistant, Jim Niccum, would find the proper compounds for his new super bomb pretty soon. The way the papers talk, that old maid's home out on Flutter Street must be doing all right. The head of it, Mary Congdon, certain- ly is setting some pace with the bachelors. I just heard that Joyce Harding and Donna Lucas have enrolled. Isn't that shocking!!! Did you know of the mysterious disappear- ance of Harold Roberts? All Hollywood was shocked over it. It seems that one morning all the hotel could find was a pair of shoes in a bathtub. Charles Withers, the detective on the case, says he has some clues as the plug has come up missing. Confidentially, I have inside information from the hotel manager, Bob Stowe, that with all of Mr. Roberts' night life he wasn't surprised. You know of that famous psychiatrist, Pa- tricia Baum, don't you? Well, she's just had a serious breakdown. They say that she finally ge eighteen just gave up trying to diagnose the strange case of Pauline Patterson. What was the matter with her? Don't you remember? She's the girl who giggled,and giggIed,and giggled. I see that eminent newspaper writer, Luther Warner, got quite a story for himself the other day. He interviewed Shannon Cox, that revolutionist, who was caught throwing bombs at Bob Springer's palatial residence in Detroit. It seems that the bank, of which Bob is pres- ident, wouldn't lend her any money for her latest political campaign. Isn't that too bad? Yes, Shannon always said that Bob was ter- ribly cold. Eugene Nichols a butler!! But of course it comes easy to him. He always did make him- self at home in everybody's kitchen. Oh yes, I nearly forgot to tell you what I read in the want ads the other day. Wanted - A good position, short hours, and high wages. Bob Baker. You say you expected it? Yes, I thought I heard you correctly. Bob Thompson! Why, don't you know. He's the famous pilot who flies the airplanes in all of the smash hit airplane pictures. Bob Rom- mel, the director of Superb Hit Studio, has just hired him to play in his new picture lt CouIdn't Be Done. You've heard of that famous Mademoiselle D'Voure? Yes, I knew you had. Well, she is none other than our own Barbara Fausnaugh. She's just returned to America and is opening an exclusive dress shop in New York. I just read in the papers that she has hired Eleanor DeLong as her dress-designer and BettyKlein- huizen to model her clothes. It's been rumor- ed that the great opera singer, Eleanor Peeke, is going to have all of her costumes for her new opera made there. Did you hear about the great financier, Dick Lane? He has just come all the way from Europe in order to have that worId-re- nowned doctor, Eleanor Spadafore, remove his tonsils which have been troubling him for some time. Kose Binando, his private nurse, accompanied him to America. Has he a great deal of money? He must have as he has al- ready employed three new stenographers here in America. The stenographers, Doris Wille- min, Ruth Timm, and Mary Alice DeLong, are planning on returning to Europe with him. I expect this would be censored if written. 'By the way did you know that Betty Clayton was recently appointed to serve on the Presi- dent's Cabinet? I wonder if she and all our other classmates remember what grand times we had in school. l'm sure l'lI never forget them. Good-bye, Jane, l certainly enjoyed our chat. -Beverly Reed, '4I. reflector
