1940 U AND I Class Prophee Authors, note: The authors beg to inform their readers, if any, that all names mentioned herein are purely lictitious, and that any resemblance to any person, living or dead, is imaginary. Margaret Thomas, a poet illustrious, Has of late become very industrious. She published in songs A tale of the wrongs Of George Brine, Arthur Brock, and the rest of us. Barbara Holmes and Pete Scarseth co-edit The Cham-bana news'-Daily Saidit- In which has appeared, As we have long feared, The news that the two had been wedded. Pierre Noyes, who was never re- pressed In argument for the oppressed, Has become a dictator Down near the equator- And knows it is all for the best. Bob DeLong built a bridge o'er the Boneyard Which was crossed by Miss Felt, who's no coward. The bridge suddenly cracked At her dainty impact- Miss Felt was immersed in the Bone- yard. Virginia Allen, an historian eminent Wrote a tome filled with history evi- dent. Pilcher was to publish it, But she took a good look at it- In despair threw away that white ele- phant. Dorothy Murphy's retired from so- cietyg She's become the pink of propriety. A home she did enter, Where John Rayburn sent her, When her escapades caused him anxiety. The taxi conducted by Lavin Developed a rear tire spavin. Even with Stouffer Acting as chauffeur, The spavin gave pain to Miss Lavin. In the last presidential election We noticed a minor defection. Braintruster Phil A. VV as defeated that day- Now the country's in need of correc- tion. Alma Bullock, who is not a minority, Has exercised her parental authority. She up and forbade Her offspring to gad- jack Cummings approved her severity. Elsa Proehl, who used to be rneeker, Has become a notorious speaker. She lectures on isms And unions and schisms- Her hearers grow weaker and weaker. Page Tue tyf
