Alice Martin .......Karl Noden .................................... LeRoy Freeland ....................... Orville Washburn ................................... Lenord Nelson ....................................Loyd Lundquist The Senior play, entitled “No Trespassing,” was presented on Friday evening, May 18, at the Majestic theatre. It is a comedy, and proved a splendid attraction, as the different parts were well worked out by those who took part, with the assistance of a coach. The plot has to do with the trials of a young city girl who has been sent to a farm, presumably to rest, but during the course of her stay she gives ample proof that a rest, either for herself or any one else, is farthest lrom her intentions. Various complications in identity, and their results, along with other laughable incidents, make the play humorous and interesting from the rising of the curtain to the general straightening out of the tangle during the last act. The proceeds of “No Trespassing,” are to be used toward the expense of our “Key.” LOYD LUNDQUIST, ’ 17.

CLASS PROPHECY As Appollo draws back the dark curtain from the Eastern sky and presents the radiant glow of the sun, so also will I draw aside the veil that conceals the future of the class of ’17, and render an account of the illustrious lives of its members. When the first gray locks begin to mingle with the gold, we will sit under the evening lamp and read the latest triumph of oratory, the speech of the Honorable Alta Sarginson before the senate of the United States. Thru diligent labor and untiring efforts we have no doubt that in a few years Leota Aldrich will attain her cherished object in life and obtain the position as choir leader in a country church. Edna Peterson is professor of languages at the Watertown Institute. Thoroughly able to teach ten languages and conversant with six more, she is certainly equipped for her duties. In that condition, she is said to be somewhat talkative, and as a result of this, her husband is reported to be on the verge of insanity. She has been afflicted with paralysis of the tongue, but thru a masterful operation, she has been made entirely well. Loyd Lundquist has been unanimously elected president of the United Brotherhood of Janitors of America. For his services in this capacity he receives fifteen dollars per month, but he does not need it. He has been made wealthy by an inheritanse from an unknown uncle who died in Siberia. Many bad conditions which our school systems are now struggling under will be alleviated thru the efforts of the noted school reformer, Anna Siefken, who will be specially active in the matters of interior decorations. Miss Bernice Woodruff, having perfected every step of the “Bara Dance,” is now teaching it in “The Land of Wooden Shoes,” China. Rouine Vodra and Hazel Buell have not been living in vain, for the East Moline fair sex are justly proud of the weekly pamphlet entitled, “Advice to the Love-lorn,” which they are successfully publishing. LeRoy Freeland is now comfortably located in the flourishing city of Carbon Cliff, where he is efficiently practicing his profession as druggist. Miss Lela Tryon, who attained her knowledge as “Editor-in-Chief,” from the East Moline “Key,” and now known the world over as such, has accepted the position as editor-in-chief of the East Moline Herald. Roy Gallaugher has been sent as ambassador by the United States to some Zulu island, where no doubt, he will make a world-wide reputation. Orville Washburn, a graduate of West Point, who became one of the leading generals of the European War, is now devoting his time to the Freshman class of the East Moline High School for military training. Myrtle Haemer is staging the greatest drama of the day, of which she is author and manager. This shows her ability to go ahead and push a thing without the aid of a man. But her letters, scores of which she receives daily, are addressed, “M. Haemer,” and “Dear Sir,” and in that guise she appears in public. Miss Alice Martin has a lucrative position as curtain-raiser in a high-priced theatre, but does not expect to stay long, as calls from the world of military men are too urgent for her piece of mind and her state of single-blessedness. KARL NODEN, ’17.
