ers from Tomstown, Quincy, and Rouzerville. The committee arranging to schedule this famous orchestra found it very difficult to do so. Snyder and his note-busters have not played for five months, so tonight those attending the ball will indeed have a treat in store. We also have the Olympic breast- stroke champion, Roy Verdier, who broke the Olympic record last spring and is now touring the United States with the diving star, Powerhouse Davis. We recognize 'xjohnnyu Grumbine, a peanut vendor, selling peanuts to two distinguished young people, Harold Widdowson and jo Stouffer. johnny is accompanied by some former buddies, Gene Topper, Gerry Morganthal, and Earl Snader. Horace Little is in charge of the business in the refreshment stand. And now listen to the roar of the Hagerstown rooters as their team trots out on the field. Dressed in their red satin uniforms with gray trimmings, they present an unparalleled spectacle. The line averages two hundred ten pounds and is coached by a Waynesboro alumnus, Hubert Carson. Carson has developed a fine line, which paves the way for a quartet of flashy backs. The officials have gathered on the field awaiting the arrival of the Tor- nado team. The referee is Charlie Smithfieldg the umpire, Bob Hard- mang and the head-linesman, Ray Hauptman, the professional wrestler. And here is an interesting sight. The entire faculty has turned out for this game. Led by Principal Robert Altland, they are taking their seats in the following order: Miss Billow, Mrs. Shockey fnee Miss Ionesl, Miss Flory, Professor Kuhn, Professor Miller and Professor Pryor. The remaining teachers l cannot see, for the crowd has risen to cheer the approach of the Waynes- boro team garbed in gold satin uniforms with blue accessories. After a brief warmup the two teams will be ready to take the field. l have several announcements to make. First, the Garden Club will meet at the home of Carolyn Latshaw and Toby Goldberg, two familiar spin- sters of the city, next Friday evening, at which time William Arthur will talk to the women using as his subject Don't Whip Our Cream, lt Makes Our Cows Discontentedu. Second, the Anti-Saloon League will meet at Smith- field's Delicatessn to sample some of the baloney sold there, lt has been reported that the clerks, Clemma Snurr, Rich Beckner and Charlie Brightful, have been issuing horse meat to regular customers. Now the teams have lined up for the kick-off. The whistle blows and the ball soars high over the players' heads just like the planes which represent the Mentzer Commercial Airlines Service. Hire a plane and take a trip , says Mr. Mentzer. Hagerstown has possession of the ball on their own twenty- yard line first-down and ten yards to go. That reminds us of the money- saving sale which is being carried on next week at Goldbergs' Haberdashery. A twenty per cent discount is being issued on all dresses over 58798. On the first play, Hagerstown made no gain just as one does when he invests his money in Eberly's Savings Bank. Charles Eberly, the president, makes the gain. His motto is, Put your money in, l'll spend it . Hagerstown kicks on third down just as any sensible man would do. Use your cents and buy a Plymouth. You won't kick then. Folks, we interrupt this program to bring you a special news flash that Margaret Crumbacker, Viennese actress, has just cut her first wisdom tooth. Attending physicians announced her condition as favorable. This is Marsh Rock, your sports announcer, resuming the play-by-play description of this Waynesboro-Hagerstown football game, in which Waynes- boro is again trouncing a heavier Hagerstown eleven by a score of 67-6.

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
