Class Prophecy As I gaze into the wide window of the future, I see the Class of '64 as the new inhabitants of the planet Mars. Since we are able to travel about the planetary system, I have decided to see what the planetians from the Class of '64 are doing. Traveling in my Jetmobile,I jet across DOROTHY WALKER and BETTY POWELL crossing the express jetway. They are on their way to Venus to spend the day in their exclusive offices. As Itum down Jetson Street, I see BETTY WILLIAMS driving her open-air space coupe. She is taking her family for an early morning drive. LUCIA DANIELS is flying along beside NATHANIEL TOLLISON, who has become the world's greatest planetary doctor. SUSANNAH ROSEBORO has just become a great authority on art work of the planetary system. Her assistant is none other than MARIAN ANDERSON. IRIS HIGGINS is well known for her modeling of way-out planet-to-planet evening dresses. All of her designs are drawn by BARBARA PETERSON and ELENA JONES. JOAN TYLER is opening her ninth week at the Midnight Club on the planet Pluto. Her manager is the well known star of sky and stage RONALD HARBOR. We have just been dialed on our car screen the information that NINA CHRISTIAN, SANDRA TAGGART, and DORETHA POWELL have just set a planetary record for traveling at the speed of two million miles per hour. A big hospital has just been dedicated on Mercury for the cure of all ills. We find that the head nurse is SYLVIA ERVIN. EDITH RUSSELL is the chief resident physician assisted by CAROLYN MCCLEAN and IDA KNOX. Nurses NORMA LEAK, MARTHA LEDBETTER, and EMMA NIXON have just finished assisting CI.EMENTINE DAVIS at the General Planetary Hospital. JACQUELINE HILL, PATRICIA MACK, ERNESTINE DOSIER, and DELOIS WRIGHT are on their way to a nursing mission to help the disease-struck planet of Neptune. After much visiting, we stop to rest and have lunch at the Planetary Drive-Ln owned and operated by HELEN GORE and PHYLLIS MARTIN. After a delectable lunch we venture down Moon Boulevard where we find numerous dress shops. VERA HALLUMS, ELEANOR BOYD, and IDRENA GRIER each owns a shop. Their businesses are thriving and they give joint fashion shows monthly. Oh! Oh! My gas is running low. As I coast into the nearest gas station, I see WILIJE GRIER and WALTER GURLEY. They have dis- covered that the planetary fuel business is a big money maker. They give me free service and I promise to come by again soon. As I wave leaving the station,I almost have a collision with a jet bus driven by ROGER INGRAM. After getting straight, I travel on. Open- ing at the Rivioli Planetary Drive-In Theatre are MAXINE MCCALL, VIRGINIA IOWERY, and CLARA MCCIINTON starring in The Wonderful World of Loveliness . SARA JONES and EARLYNE MCCLOUD are directing the picture. One of the largest newspaper companies in the world is run by CAROL CARVER and KATIE SCOTT. FRANCES HARPER and BETTY CHAPMAN are the columnists. An election year for the planetary system is coming up soon. WILLIAM WATERS and JAMES MCNEAL have decided to run for presi- dent and vice president respectively. THELMA REEDY, ERNESTINE TATE, and KENNETH WILLIAMS have received Ph. D. 's in English from the University of Mars. HELEN McCOY and ELINOR WATERS are teaching at this University. BARBARA GRAVES and PAULA GWYN are head nurses at Planetary Asylum. VIOLA DURHAM and GLORIA GREENE have opened beauty shops all over the planetary system. MARY RAMSEUR owns a fleet of Cadillac planetmobiles and JOYCE HENDERSON helps run the business. JOANNE MACDONAID, ZELLA HOPKINS, and HESTER STRICKLAND are doing studies of Planetarymosis, a sleeping sickness of the planet Mercury. BARBARA GRIFFIN, JENNIE MCDUFFIE, and GLORIA ADAMS have secured jobs in the Space Cadet School. A new type of plastic is being worked on by VIRGINIA ROGERS and JIMMIE HOUSTON. REGINA CUNNINGHAM and BARBARA PURDIE are on the staff of Planetary Baker's Shop. CARRIE HOOD, NETA I-IARSHAW, and JOAN FERGUSON own the largest bank in the planetary system. MODINE SIMMONS and WILLIE SIMMONS work there as secretaries. 26
