CLASS PROPHECY Seymour Avenue Knowsall, New York February 31, 1951 Dear Irene: I want to congratulate you on having received the Ala Belle prize for being the most efficient postmistress in the U. S. A. in 1950. I thought that perhaps you folks out in Boom Town, Utah, might like to know how the rest of the class of '41 has turned out. I just returned from the opera Frenesi” in which Doris Chambers is starring. You knew her as Doris Chamberlain. When she sang Dear Lord and Father of Mankind,” she really gave! They say Milan Berfield has been Chase-ing after a new kind of butterfly to add to his already large collection. Mother recently sent me a copy of The Stark County New's.” I learned that Jean McManus has accepted the position as teacher in a kindergarten in Jackson-villa. Sam King, test driver for Donald Hedges Motor Co., of Toulon, is convalescing in Kewanee Public Hospital, after the testing of Mr. Hedges latest invention. Mr. King said, It is definitely not a success. I also saw by the paper that Senator Dale Eckley of Illinois gave a fine speech in the Senate at Washington on Should We Attempt to Conquer Asia and Europe or Should We? You remember he was quite an orator in old T. T. H. S. We have decided to send our daughter Pansy to Mt. Holyoke, a girls college of which Quentin House is President. You remember he always got along with the girls quite well. He has a system there. To the Freshmen he is a father, to the Sophomores a brother, but when it comes to the Juniors and Seniors it's every man for himself! Have you read Miss Patricia Cover’s latest book. All About National Defense?” It has just come off the press and is said to be very authentic. Speaking of National Defense, that reminds me, Robert Swango is sergeant of Throop M” in the army. My brother recently sent me the new best-seller, Lost Souls” by Louise Hand and Verna Fickling. The authors have decided to collaborate on a sequel, Lost Heels. Surely, you’ve heard Joe Steimle, master of ceremonies of the Sweet Meats” program. I always knew he was a ham! Have you ever gone to one of the Dr. Lehman series of films? The latest one is. Dr. Lehman Finds Out, in which Marcine Murchison is the leading lady. In this movie Marcine has finally achieved her ambition to be a nurse. Another person from Toulon that has made good in the movies is Donald Blakey. He has taken the place of Gene Autry and receives twice as much fan mail as Autry ever did. The girls can’t resist his guitar playing and accompaniment with vocal chords. Mary Creel has just opened a Varsity and Ring Shop. Oh, you remember Mary Creel, the girl who never had a varsity letter or class ring in her life. As I went past her shop, she was sitting in the corner making herself a dress trimmed with varsity letters and studded with class rings. You asked me whether I knew what became of Helen Chapman and Helen DeBord. Helen DeBord and Ar'ene Eckley are making their living as aerialists in the Bungling Bros, circus. I always said, There's nothing like high flying. 9
