QQ:xJ4M!w1'rNnss - Z, ,,f '..VlITNESS I' SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY One fine summer day in the year 1958, while Iwas taking a walk, a sudden irnpulse came over me to look up my friends of the Senior Clasa. of 1948 and see what life had had in store for them. Since it was such a fine day, I decided to take an airplane. Un entering the plane, I thought the pilot looked familiar and further invest- igation proved hixn to be Paul Duff. Now that we are in the air the stewardess, Wanda Lue Carr, does what she can to make the passengers comfortable. While we were flying over Washington, D. C., I noticed a large group of people gathered in front of the White House. Wanda said it was Senator Robert Voltz, who is expected to run for President during the next election, giving another of his carnpaign speeches. She also told me that Miss Louise Bienz, who has been editor of the Windy-Wind news- paper for the past several years, has starteda Home For Old Maids , to which all men are urged to visit. As we fly over Willshire, we fly down to see dear old W.H.5. We are greeted by the excited coach, Don Geary, whose tea.m has just won the State Charnpionship in Class B for basketball. Miss Sally Clouse, who also teaches at Willshire, writes books during the summer months. Her latest novel, entitled Since johnny Swallowed a Spoon, He Can't Stir , has been voted best seller for the year 1958. We stopped in Chicago to attend the Wicky-Wacky Circus pro- duced by Mr. Bob Frank. This show stars the faxnous clown, john Schaffner, and the great Twins of the Trapeze , Marilyn Dull and Gordon Leistner. By the way, john was also hired to help the elephants pack their trunks. Verna Pifer has chosen motion pictures as her career and can now be seen in her latest hit, Back Home in Wi1lshire. It is nearing dinner time, so we stop in St. Louis to eat at the Snack-Shack , a restaurant owned by LaVerne Miller. There is an added attraction here. Tonight it is the farnous Hungry Ballet Dancer, Mary Lou Miller. While we are on the way back to the plane, we passed the Dog and Cat Hospital operated by Dr. Albert Schlegel. When we are aboard the plane, we hear this announcement over the radio -- Stay tuned to this station to hear, transcribed, the newest King of Swing , Williarn Allrnandinger, who will now sing the Serenade of the Blondes .
