PROPHECY-Continued from page 27 float by and the stars winking out one by one. I have just finished an article in my magazine by Professor Donald Williams, head of the new laboratory for Physics Re- search in Tacoma, Washington. Now I guess it's time to. turn in, for the plane lands in New York early tomorrow. June 3, 1953-Well, New York is quite a place! Wandering down by the piers, I met Louise Griefenstein, who had iust come back from England She is a correspondent for the New York Times. Suzanne Kunzman and Ruth Schlang had come over on the same boat as Louise. They had been making a concert tour of Europe. I also met Admiral Bob Bowen of the Unit- ed States Navy, who told me that Bob Nun- gesser is captain of a destroyer in his fleet, and Beatrice Donelon and Marilyn Rybeck are nurses on his ship. Tonight I visited Radio City, where I was introduced to George Thurman, chief radio technician. George took me to the sound stage where Battle of the Sexes was on. It was four charming secretaries from New Orleans-Ruth Hague, Norma Wells, Eleanor Sulzer and Genevieve Bul- lock, versus four draftsmen from St. Paul -Glen Cipra, Rod Johnson, Herb Kruger and Roland Slay. It was a very interesting and close fight, but the ladies won out in the end lof coursel. Moving on to the next stage, we en- countered Dick Hamilton, chief electrician, who was about to throw the switch for the beginning of Jennie's Last Husband. Jennie was played by Alice Kirk, and her last husband was Bill Lawrence. It was a very realistic story, and when it was over I sat spellbound in my seat until someone tapped me on the shoulder. It was Edith Marquardt and her husband, an architect, who had also been in the audience. After leaving the broadcasting studies, I had a severe headache, so I stopped in at a big downtown drugstore for some aspirin. AI Wilson waited on me, and told me that he had been the manager for two years. He said that Dora and Doris Heidt had been in earlier in the evening. Dora is head nurse in the city hospital, and Doris is trumpeter for the Hour of Charm. Outside of the drugstore I met Bob Murphey, who is now District Attorney. He walked me back to my hotel, and on the way told me that Olga Solomone is his pri- vate secretary. He pointed out an office window that said Rockwell Insurance Agency - Leonard Rockwell, president, Ethel Roe, secretary. Just as we arrived at my hotel, a newsboy went by, so Bob bought a paper. On the front page was a glowing account of the marriage of Mari- jane Wagner to Lord Percival Bottomley. Phyllis Brown Stafford had been matron of honor, and Marian Meyers, a nurse, had been bridesmaid. I now retire with my headache. June 7, 1953-What a way to spend a vacation! For the last three days I've been confined to bed in the hospital with a bad case of measles! I'm a terrible patient -I've kept three nurses running around day and night getting things for me. Inci- dentally, they are Marge Schmidt, Dorothy Debaltz and Jean Henry. I've driven Dr. Johnny Ross nearly crazy begging him to let me out so I can go on with my vacation. But I have to stay until day after tomor- row. A I've just been listening to a marvelous piano concert on my earphone radio, given by Gloria Tomko. There's-oops! Lights out. June 8, 1953-Guess who was in to see me today! Dr. Mary McGarry Mitchell, who's a brain specialist in another section of this hospital. Her husband - Howard Mitchell, you know, the great scientist- and she have a penthouse on Park Avenue. I also saw Ann McCormick go by in a nurse's uniform. She didn't see me though. Evelyn Slagle is an X-ray technician here. Things are dull when you're not sick but have to stay in bed--McGarry sent me some red roses from Hauptkorn's Florists. Eddie owns the greehouse. Nurse--how's about some chewing gum? lShe thinks I'm crazy.l June 9, 'I953-Gee, it is good to be up and around again! I ran into Cindy Rob- son today and had lunch with her. She's the democratic Senator from Ohio. They call her the Baloney Girl. Cindy told me that Charles Shannon, and Bob Gunval- sen are members of the House of Repre- sentatives. Art Moff is the speaker. Later this afternoon I decided to look around in the New York Public Library. Who should greet me at the main desk but Evelyn Lake! She told me where the fiction fContinued on page 78? twenty-eight

unior Class History Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of coke for the juniors. Their lusty praises again ring through the halls of ye olde Willoughby High. For the second successive year they elected Jim Walker for President. The other officers are Vice President Bob Clair, Scretary, Marie Condon, and Treasurer, Greg Johnson. A-a-nd, they could have danced a hornpipe, when for the second suc- cessive year, the F. C. girls of the Junior classs, won first prize in Stunt Night. This was the big year all right. ln oddition to the former activities, they also selected their class rings. Then, of course, the all important prom. Considering the lack of transportation facilities, and the double lack of good bands and orchestras, the committees for the prom had a real job on their hands, but they all heaved-ho and the result was a walloping good prom. So look out, here they come roaring into their Senior year.--What thenl? thirty
