SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen of the radio audience, this is station W. S. H. S. greeting you from its spacious stadium in the heart of the metropolis of Waynesboro. During the period of time before the kick-off beginning this annual classic between these two football teams representing Waynesboro High and Hagerstown High, we are going to take our portable microphone around the stadium and listen to speeches by the famous people who have gathered here to witness another chapter of this intense rivalry. Many old grads have returned today to witness this spectacle, which is the most famous of school-boy athletic contests in the eastern part of our United States. While the engineers are arranging our apparatus, we will review some of the most famous of these games. Probably the most thrilling was the one fought several years ago when Waynesboro sported an undefeated team against a much heavier Hagerstown aggregation. We who saw that fray will never forget that fighting 'lTornado , which came out on the field at the beginning of the second half with a 6-O defeat staring them in the face. Of course the rest is history. Can't you remember how Don Shockey and Cliffy Baker crossed the final stripe with sheer fight and spirit? Today, Merle Bowers, a member of that eleven, is coaching for Waynes- boro, having had two undefeated teams in succession. Clark Newman, director of athletics, has been satisfied with the work of Bowers and plans to have him sign a new contract. And now we take you down to the field where the spectators are milling about awaiting the approach of the gigantic parade, which has been reported as being twelve blocks in length. A large crowd is gathered around Frankie Dorand, who is in training at Tick Ridge for his battle with joe Louis at Bowes Park for the heavyweight championship of the world. Dorand is managed by Butch Etchberger, who took him under his wing through the support of Vice-President Leiter, who has been building up quite a reputation in Washington political circles. And now We can hear the Tornado Band under the baton of Professor Bobertsky Bouder- iskizytxch, and the drum major, Harry Ricker. They have just marched on the field and are now forming a large on the emerald gridiron. The band appear very natty in their gold satin uniforms. This new public address system which has just been installed Was in- vented by Earl Snader, now associated with the Arthur Badio Corporation. lt is a very intricate piece of apparatus which earned for him the Nobel Prize. He is now a professor at Harvard. The crowd has risen to greet and cheer the Queen, who, with her court, is following the band. The Queen, Miss Waynesboro Xl , is none other than Betty Thompson, who, accompanied by her manager and booking agent, Ralph Cover, is signing autographs. Another famous group of people is visiting here this fine, lndian summer afternoon, for Tommy Harold Snyder, his trombone, and his orchestra are passing the time away at the game until they are scheduled to sting and stray at the great American Legion Ballroom for the Queen's Ball this evening. The orchestra is composed of Director Snyder and his trombone, Bob Florence and his tuba, Earl McFerren at the drums, and Lewis Danfelt with his swinging oboe. The other members of the organization are foreign- Page Twenty-eight i
