SENICR C ASS PRCDPHECY Whtle tourtng the local County Fa1r a few days ago we happened to chance upon a small tent whlch was set apart from the rest and was unnonced by most of the crowd A small srgn above the door read Madame SAY Sees the Future U1 her Crystal Ball We were met at the door by a gypsy of anctent vintage We stated that we w1shed to see the futures of some very close fr1ends and she proceeded forth w1th to use her maglc ball The f1rst tmage to appear was that of Walter Baker who lS now a successful tycoon on Wall Street presxdmg over the busmess world from lus penthouse tnhis Super Duper Baker Sky scraper A dark nust swept away the tmage and when tt cleared we were surprlsed to see that Carol Blackwell IS a farmerette who IS llVlIlg on Canal Street in Welhngton and is busy as a bee tend1ng her two mineature basketball teams of ten boys Then we saw Don Bury who IS a lTlBQ'1lf1C8IlI and successful conductor of the New York Plulharmonlc Symphony Orchestra He has been accla1med by crmcs as a greater conductor even than Toscanrune. Agam the mist swept away that tmage, and soon we saw an old push cart traveling up and that nrne we were aware that it was none other than Roger Carnun the Ch1ef garbage collector Then we saw the famous playboy Hiram Crawford dmtng at his winter v1lla on the Rlviera Hts motto by the looks of th1ngs seemed to be wine, women and song. He now has half of King Farouk s harem. Now S1r Edwardo Htghftll came mto view He is we soon learned a conftrmed bachelor who plays flrst vtolm under Maestro Donaldo Leoaldo Buryo Qshort for Daddy Op Again the scene changed and we saw the magugaration of James McClure the new Pres1dent of the United States We saw bestde him the first lady snuling and grac1ous as ever She is the former Hatense Agatha MoG11l1cuddy daughter of Zeke McG1llxcuddy XIII the champton sword swallower The crystal ball suddenly became black but Madame SAY uttered several rnagtc words and we saw a flnal xmage. It was Marte Ziebart who lS now fashion consultant to the Queen of England We note that Queen Eltzabeth and Prmcess Margaret were placed second and tlurd respectively to Miss Zlebart tn nominations by the fashion world for the world s then best dressed women. The crystal ball once again grew black and Madame SAY presented us with a b1l1 of good luck, which we in turn present to the Senior Class of 1957 by the Jumor Class down the back alleys of Milford. Who was pushing this cart? we said to ourselves. About I ' . . . . . ' I , I D . , . . . ' , . '
