Of course, our vivacious Dorothy Neuman is his blushing bride. Well, here's Mary Towne, happy as a housewife in a little Green cottage just outside of Tully. Len finally bought Mary that car she's always wanted, and so far Mary has only taken off one garage door. The scene now changes and we see Pearl Fisher cooking dinner in a little kitchenette. l-low Happy she looks! Happy thinks her calm, quiet ways make her an ideal wife. The HK Grill has been taken over by Doris Brenchley. l-ler pleasant disposition and agreeableness refreshes tired soldiers and sailors who stop in at K Grill for a soda or milk shake. The scene now shifts to the beautiful Hawaiian Islands. Who's slender form is this dancing to the soft music of Hawaiian guitars? Whyit's Mae Marks! Mae finally achieved her lifelong ambition to be a hula dancer and is now known as the Markiola, the Queen of Swing and Sway. Remember Betty l-lansel's pretty blond hair? Out in Hollywood Betty is rivaling Ve- ronica Lake 'with a peek-a-boo bob, covering both eyes. Betty was black and blue from bumping into things until the studio bought her a seeing eye dog.

The annual Senior Ball, which was held January 22, headed the list of outstand- ing events sponsored by the class. A On February 24, a spaghetti supper was held in the school cafeteria and 'was well attended. Two round and square dances were also very profitable. The class is proud of the exceptional averages of our Valedictorian, Mildred Myers, and our Salutatorian, Arvilla McCallum, since these are the highest to be achieved by any students- since the school was centralized. We are Well aware of the fact that this year, we, as seniors, are facing a world in which our responsibilities are even greater than those of past graduating classes. Reluc- tantly we bid farewell to our friends and teachers who will remain here at T. C. S. No doubt, before long the members of this class will be widely separated. Some of our boys, and perhaps girls, 'will have joined the armed forces, and others will have taken on essen- tial war jobs which will take them far away from the halls of T. C. S. and friendships made here. We sincerely hope, that in years to come, we, as individuals, will do our utmost to abide by the standards of living which have been taught us here at T. C. S., and always keep in mind, our class motto, Not for ourselves, but for others. 73r0pl1ecy As l add the last precious ingredients to the magic caldron, slowly the vapors rise, and form scenes of the mysterious future. l see our Senior Class as it will be in I953. Calista Tobin has taken all the jitterbug championships by storm, and at present is per- forming before the crowned heads of Europe. Come on alligators--how about Kpoolin' some foolin'? Stanley Sherman is now playing the leading role in Charlie's Cousin's Wife's Seventh Husband, sponsored by ltchie Flea Powder. Since Stanley's voice came on the air three million more women have switched to ltchie Flea Powder. l see that May Brown has become a famous woman Fisher, and is living in a little bun- galow in Tully Valley. She keeps Carl amused with her bountieous supply of jokes. We see that l-lobart's Garage in Scranton, Pennsylvania, is doing a thriving business these days. The Scranton girls find l..yle's shy, quiet manner quite novel. Several have been heard to remark, That guy just ain't human! Ruth Butler, former editor of Butler's Special Dictionary, designed to fit her own spelling, has become a Power's model. When she swings gracefully across the floor, every Real man in the place just swoons.

Alan Craw has taken over his father-in-law's position as principal in T. C. S. Alan's interest in this work started while he was Ha-courtin' U Betty in the good old high school days. Betty, of course, stays home and keeps house. Alan still thinks Betty's dimples are the cutest in the world. Janice Estey is No. I hog-caller on the Estey ranch. The pigs come readily from near and far. Janice got her practice in Senior meetings. We find Mary Clark and Ralph profitably running their own roller-skating rink in the heart of Apulia Station. Mat sure has proved that she can paddle her own Cornue. ln the heart of London, a new charm school for boys has been established. The pro- prietor, Roland Vinnedge, says his motto is Politeness lightens the way to success. Back here in Tully Roland used to practice his 'ipersonality plus program on Ellen. The W. F. B. l... radio station comes into view and a program is just going on the air. It is Grandma Tuffley's Voice of Experience. Millions of girls listen breathlessly each night as Joyce's charming voice fills them full of hooey. Helen Zufelt, with her extra-special brand of tap dancing 'is star of the new Ziegfeld Follies, and receives thousands of fan letters each week. Her most ardent fan? Bob Mc- Elroy, of course. At the last election Art Walburger was elected Mayor of Otisco. With Otisco's huge population strongly behind him Art is negotiating for the construction of a railroad from Otisco to Apulia Station. Edith Edinger is now the efficient manager of the Tully-Vesper baseball team. ln their last game the New York Yankees lost to Tully-Vesper, 6-0. Edith just turned down a huge offer from the Brooklyn Dodgers. Margaret Flaherty has just won first prize as funniest clown in a comedy program staged morning and night for the cows on Reagan's new Hilltop Dairy. Helen Kelly, ex-star reporter for the New York Times, is now an Apulia star house- wife. Her family grows up ufoster and foster, while Helen tries to lure her husband Gerald away from Porter's. Alice Krewson is receiving huge royalties on her book, How to Win Your Man and Keep Him in Ten Easy Lessons. Of course it makes a difference if he is Still fa, man or not. A spacious office comes into view. Our own Beulah Hughes is now secretary to Henry Morgenthau, Jr. Beulah is still as neat as a ping and always arrives in the Nick of time. Cynthia Stanton 'who joined the W. A. A.C.'s has just been promoted to top sergeant. Larry, who's only a private, says, It sure is funny to be married to a top sergeant. Mary Krawczuk is a waitress in Walgreen's drug store, and draws customers by the doz- ens. Mary just flutters her eyelashes at the men and they buy 50 cents worth of food whether they want it or not. Why here is Kenneth Covey playing a love scene with Lana Turner. When killer-diller Ken blew into town, Clark Gable and Robert Taylor just quietly gave up in despair. Femi- nine stars Fight for the privilege of playing opposite Ken. The magic spell is broken. Our mysterious caldron refuses to reveal any more, and we return our thoughts once more to the year l943.
