CLASS PROPHECY Toward the end of the semester, the juniors of '48 took an advanced course in science. We enjoyed it very much, and took part in several experiments. Mr. Shipton invited Professor Bleekwater to lecture on his recent discovery of the atom pill. He accepted the invitation, and we juniors were honored when he asked us to participate in the trial of the atom capsule. These pills were truly amazing, because they gave us the power to look into the future. This we did, and it so happened that we saw what the future held for our five seniors. The following is the outcome of our interest- ing observations. LEON ARP: .It cameas a great surprise to everyone when Leon decided to takeflaw, because his high school ambition had been to teach.
