. 'ju tir- G ...A . CLASS PROPHECY OF '28 A Ney York City, September l, 1938. Dear Earle.Marie: New York at lastl After our long iourney from Texas we were glad to arrive at our destination. The first welcome we had was Hey, Taxi? We looked and there stood Guy Pranks. Feature thatl We immediately got in his taxi and said, To the best hotel. We arrived at the hotel and whom do you suppose we saw? Allen Gwynne, the day clerk. He was very surprised to see us and told us that Bill Cranz was pilot of a transatlantic liner. Of course we wanted to go sight-seeing, but at present we were con- cerned only with clothes. Allen directed us to a smart Fifth Avenue Shop. XVe went to select afternoon dresses and were waited on by Bonnie Wade. She said, You must get some lingerie here. We have a very fine buyer. He is, by the way, Claude Nay. Well, that hit like a thunderbolt, Earle. Can you feature Claude a lingerie man? After all these delightful surprises, we needed something to revive us? so we headed for a tea shop. We came upon an oriental one called the BUL- LARD TEA SHOP. We, of course, didn't associate the name with Dallas, but she was the owner. She came and talked to us and told us where quite a few of our old school-mates were. She told us that Mr. and Mrs. Ed White, CDot Landrumj were in the other night for tea. They are quite happy and have three children. Maurine Stokes has turned out to be an insurance sales- woman and has actually sold somebody CFrances Smithj some insurance. After a delightful chat with Dallas, we left the shop. Just as we reached the street, a fire-wagon came tearing down the street. And there whom do you suppose we saw hanging on the back end? 'Speck' Mahan, of course. He waved wildly to us. Right after the fire wagon came an ambulance driving like mad. Burford Scaling was the driver, and he was fairly airing it out. After the excitement died down our attention was attracted by a very novel sign. It had been designed by Norma Lou McKenzie and was adver- tising Nichols' Pickles . fYou remember Jane who was in our Botany class, don't you?j We started back to the hotel, but on the way we saw the fashionable Henderson, Hughes Beauty Shop. We Went in and guess who was running it? Velma and Mary Margaret. They gave us their best operators, Mary Stal- lard and Pauline Graves. Mary told us to be sure to get the latest book, Why Everyone Should Read The Master Key by Ann Evarts Taylor. We had dinner with Ruth Sears, a society girl, and she told us that Cayloma had become famous almost over night on account of her invention, Stay-Blonde. Chester Dalby is mayor of New York, and Douhitt Norman is an automobile saleswoman. She said, too, that Ab and Ferdie are going to make the White Sox this year. We went to a show after dinner to see Dorothy Ann Furnas and Jack Holland in 'AWe're from Texas. Perry Leonard, Music Professor at Col- umbia, and Mary Elizabeth Bonner, gym instructor at a high school, sat in front of us. Mary Elizabeth said that Eleanor Arrington, Margaret Barron, and Bess Crawford were running the A, B, C, Bookshop at Detroit. We Went back to the hotel and when the icewater we sent for arrived. we were surprised to see that C. C. Colton was the bell-hop. Page Z7 4 A
