CLASS PROPHECY The four of us again started in search of a cool drink. It was Toni who first noticed that it was Katherine Wells who was serving. As we talked to her Caro- lyn asked if she could tell us where any of our classmates were now. She said she had heard from a few of them lately. Carolyn English she reported was teaching math in Siberia. Linda Rimel had left Virginia and had gone back to Tennessee for some good ole mountain dew . Mary Joyce Wood was teaching shorthand in California and the great baseball player, Johnny Keifer, has recent- ly been chosen to baseball's Hall of Fame. Also Bobby Whitehead was leading all the troops of the Boy Scouts of America across India on a field trip. She also mentioned that J. C. Arrington and Willie Lee Wells had formed a society for the prevention of cruelty to farmers. We started back to our seat and bumped into Elliott Laine before we got there. So naturally we all stopped to sit down and talk. We told him what we knew about our old friends and asked him if he could help us with the others. He said he had seen Joyce Outland a few days ago and she told him she had just had her first book published and it was entitled HOW TO TYPE IN 5000 EASY LESSONS. He also said that he had read in the paper that John Henry Byrum and Freddy Hall were in Congress now. They were both trying to set a new record in filibustering. He had also heard that Nelda Sue Garris was the first woman to join the Harlem Globe Trotters and that John Staley Copeland was now their manager. He said as he was reading the comics the other day, he had noticed there was a new strip created by Herbert Taylor. John Thomas Carr had just broken the world's record for dribbling a basketball the longest. He said he read in a newpaper that Buck Jones, the clown, had just joined the world's largest circus. As I picked up my old annual, I realized there were two boys that no one had mentioned, Russell Powell and J. L. Rose. I asked the others if they had heard anything about them. But everyone just looked blank. It seems no one has heard a word from them for almost two years. Suddenly a blaring voice came over the lous speaker announcing that we had reached the moonpand were getting ready to land. Soon I felt a light bump and knew we had raachedour destination. As I gathered up my things and stepped out into the air I noticed four objects racing toward the ship. I called the others and we stood back to watch. As they came closer it seemed to be two men and two animals of some kind. All at the same time we realized that J. L.and Rus- sell had chased two steers all the way to the moon! by Barbara Palmer 21
