Class Prophecy It was a sunr} day up on Mars when I climbed into my shiny new rocket ship and headed down towards the earth. It was the year 1?59 and I had not seen my friends on earth for nearly ten years. A few hours later I landed in New York City and began a search for all my old classmates. As I walked down Broadway, I passed the theater where the graceful ballet dancer, Mildred Franklin, was appearing. The papers said she had charmed all the young men in New York. A few blocks down the street, I passed a car on which was printed James White’s Taxi Service. I climbed in and found Taterbug himself at the wheel. Jame3 told me he owned half the cabs in the city, as he drove me to Yankee Stadium where I was just in time to see Kermit Sanders smack his sixty-eight home-run of the season. Ralph Smith, the Yankee’s brilliant manager, told me that Kermit was the hottest second baseman the league had ever seen. Manager Smith and his dear little wife, Reta Jenkins, drove me to the airport from which I left for Virginia. In Richmond, I was surprised to be met at the Airport by the Governor of the State himself, the Honorable Charles Cordell Sanford. With him was his pretty secretary, Barbara Clark, who was putting to good use all that Miss Claude had taught her. We drove to the radio station, where I stopped to greet the members of the famous Harmonizing Four Quartet—Amos Elliott, Irving Packett, Bobby Wilson and Ellsworth Bowen. The quest star on their program that enening was Patricia Parr, the celebrated opera singer. On our way to Warsaw, we passed the new factory, the Croxton-France Company, where Billy and Myers were making millions manufacturing pinball machines. In Tappahannock, we saw the big Safeway Store ran by Warner Williams and his better half, Ann Edwards. There was a big celebration going on in Warsaw. Major-General Stewart Dishman and the charming society girl, Frances Bell, had just been married. The wedding was conducted by Reverend Warren Thrift, Paster of Totuskey Baptist Church. Ernestine Nash was there in her beautiful evening dress Ernestine had left the children at home with her husband, Darell Woolard, who was the local undertaker. Darrell said he was the last man to let you down. Professor Jerry Spiker, the noted Atomic Scientist, had flown down from Washington, bringing with him the first female Vice-President of the United States, Miss Myrtle Morris. Miss Morris had nosed out Leslie Fallin in the election. Leslie had now retired from politics and had become principal of Warsaw High School. Ruth Smith was now teaching typing, and Mrs. Dorothy Jones had taKen over the Horae Economics Department. Ruth and Dorothy said they had things well under control. The wealthy, handsome, young playboy, Ralph Revere, pulled up in his sixteen cylinder Cadilliac, followed by a mob of admirers. Ralph was accompanied by the lovely Edna Bryant, movie actress and society girl, who had divorced Glark Gable, Robert Taylor and Jimmy Durante. He also brought with him Louise Hall, Burnette Scott, and his own little Chickadee, Mary Withers. Ralph told me he just couldn’t choose between them; so he brought all four. That was enough. The hustle-bustle of the earth was wearing me down. I made it back to .my rocket ship and heading toward the peaceful planet of Mars, flew off into spaoe. Tommy Robbins Class Historian
