Had not our mission been very, very important, we would not have attempted the journey at all. But we had a task before us to accomplish, and we just had to see the wise old man of the woods. We reached the end of our journey just before nightfall, and the fact that we either had to return in the darkness — the menacing darkness of the woods, or remain in the cabin of the Seer until next morning did not disturb us at all. Our thoughts were upon what strange things we might see and hear. He must have been expecting us, for the white haired old man with a flowing white beard and mystic eyes was standing in the door of his forest cabin waiting as we approached. His greeting was low and solemn, but welcoming. “I know,” he said with a kindly gleam in his eyes, “you want a glimpse into the future. You want to see what your classmates will be doing years from now; you want to know something about yourselves when you are grown, when re- sponsibilities rest upon you, when you will be putting to good use some of the things learned while at your dear school, Wilson High. Very well, you shall have your wish. Sit there before me, and all you have to do is to call the names of your classmates and my magic crystal will unfold the future.” We sat before him, with the crystal globe in the center of the table and two tall candles on either side. It was all so very mysterious, but we did not feel afraid. The Seer sank slowly into his seat, gazed intently into the magic crystal ball, moved his long thin hands over it several times, mumbled something we could not understand, and then called for the first name. The following is what the wise old Seer in his lone cabin revealed to us that day: 1 see deep in the future, Hattie Willis Abbitt, Teaching school is plainly this young lady’s habit. Sally Elizabeth Allen, making good in subtraction and addition. Is with a big corporation in an executive position. What’s this? O, yes, a beauty expert is Pauline Elizabeth Allsbrook, ■And Hazel Leigh .Andrews is content to keep house and cook. Now a unique case is Lydia Harriett Bain, •She took business, but she’s a nurse in a hospital relieving pain. Florence Estelle Barkley? She’s always in a whirl — She owns a fleet of airplanes flying ’round the world. There’s something homey about V’ivian Barnes, She’s in her own beautiful home with children and flowers and lawns. Now take Trilby Oveido Barr, the lass with a name that’s odd — She’s hunting wild animals where foot of man never trod. Margaret Wilma Barrick is writing books that sell; And Jane Bass is in the movies doing very well. I can see Mildred Louise Blow sitting at her desk; She’s a style expert known from east to west. Annie Elizabeth Boulds heads a Government bureau, And Sarah May Bowden has married a sea captain hero. Something different is in store for Marian Elizabeth Brantley — She’s a toothpaste model and gets paid for looking pleasantly. Reba Lee Bryan? O, yes, she’s a matron of a school; .And Elsie Mae Buchanan is a loving wife as a rule. Inez Lenora Buchanan is a W’all Street secretary, .And Jean W ' oodson Buck is a magazine editor extraordinary. Known far and wide is Virginia Launia Burnette — She represents her State in the United States Senate. .A smart little lady to be sure is Eliza Helen Cohen, She owns a modiste’s shop that does fine ladies’ sewing. .Ah, another Cohen — Ruby Evelyn by name; House designing is her chief bid for fame. Helen Mason Conner goes about making political speeches, While Mary Virginia Cutchin is fond of the law she teaches. I see Doris Rae Daughtry directing a cooking institute, W ' hile Marion Eure Daughtry is married and runs a beauty parlor to boot. Catherine Pearl Davenport is a post office employee. And June Elizabeth Eddington is happy with hubby, girl and boy. A department store superintendent is Anna Jane Eley; [ 34 ] Margaret Elizabeth Etheridge teaches in California — “Go West!” said Horace Greeley. Mary Holden Gallalee is a pious minister’s wife, She points the way to service and lives the worthwhile life. Now here’s the interesting case of Barbara Elizabeth Gay: She’s a hotel owner in a great big way. I can see June Host Gibson winning her mark in literature; And Marion Frances Gomer earns her living designing furniture. Dorothy Evelyn Goodman directs a company making dolls; .Audrie May Halstead is making good designing walls. There’s Alma McLean Harrell a college dean of girls; ■And Eleanor Frances Harrell, who travels and knows dukes and earls. Melva Louise Harrell is an audit bureau head; While Ruth Hesselschwerdt writes biographies of the living and dead. A second Emily Post is Mildred Jean Hewitt; And if you want a well planned meal let Mollie Marian Hirsch do it. Etta Catherine Hodges advises on children’s needs; Margaret Estelle Holland is a missionary doing good deeds. I can see Miss Hutcheson, whose name is also Evelyn L., As a White House secretary she’s doing mighty well. A good example for all is the little lady, Vivian Jackson — “Be a good wife and mother and neighbor,” is her worthy axiom. A recognized writer of verse is Sarah Catherine Jones; Dena Katz is the operator whose voice you hear over the telephones. Now here’s Gladys Lena Lane, who spends much time on the water; She married a millionaire yachtsman, and she has three sons and a daughter. Ruth Lawrence is in the Census Bureau doing Government work; Georgia Mae Lawson is certainly awesome — no nurse’s task does she shirk. Evelyn Leesnitzer operates a ladies’ garment shop; As a lawyer Emma Evelyn Lewis is rapidly going to the top. Sarah Odessa Liles. Why she’s an operatic star! Edith Louise Lively is a speaker pleading for peace, not war. .A dainty little lady is Marie Louise Lowe: As a society leader she is always on the go. Not so very different is dear Martha Anne Luke: She’s living in England, she’s married to an honest-to-goodness duke. A busy woman indeed is Frances Elizabeth Manning: She’s a chief consultant in a food concern that does a lot of canning. .A primary teacher of note is Sadye Marcus; She spends her vacation abroad nearly every August. Ruth Virginia Marks is a doctor of medicine; While Grade Hortense Martin is noted for her inventions like Edison. Regional Economic Directress is Alice Lamar Mathews: Now of Mary Elizabeth Miller I am forced to ask you Is there a better research worker in the field of statistics? Or who can match Congresswoman Alma Dorothy Montague as she represents her district? I see Edith Neville teaching domestic science; And Elizabeth Farr Patterson among the age’s literary giants. .An authority in civil government is Doris L ouise Peele; While Ray Estelle Piedmont is well known in the astronomical field. A restless busy body is Ruth Annette Powers — She operates a greenhouse and sells all kinds of flowers. A beautician and fashion leader of note is Sallie Garlick Pugh; While Marguerite Reese writes advice to lovers to be read by me and you. .An efficient playground executive is Helen Gertrude Rowe; As a champion tennis player Catherine Eugenia Savage is certainly far from slow. .A teacher of classic dancing is Marion Alyse Shearon; .And Josephine Elliott Snellings is the wife of a Russian baron. Dorothy Frances Spivey is somewhat of a sensation — She and her husband operate a chain of filling stations. There’s .Anna Mae Stephens, whose work is mighty enthralling: Being a lady detective seems to be her calling. Frances Stokes is a demonstrator of new ways to cook; .And Sarah Lee Story is busv writing children’s books. .A teacher of personality is Elise Dashiell Stroud; .And of Dorothy Jane Sturtevant you will feel especially proud: Because this young lady is a breeder of fine Belgian hares; While Elma Sunday is an aviatrix, and danger she daily dares. Lillian Carl Taylor has risen to be a social arbiter; While Eady Kathleen Thomas is a highly paid stenographer. There’s certainly nothing puny about Pauline Thornhill — She’s an authority on women’s problems, and she can certainly fill the bill. A seminary instructress in languages is Cora Albertine Turner — As a master of Chinese dialects she’s a big money earner. A beautiful example of motherhood is Vivian Wright Twilley; While Ruth Elizabeth Van Dyck makes many a man look silly When she pitches in and works on her scientific farm; [ 35 ] And as an expert in plant biology she hires Mildred Irene Vaughan. Take that efficient lady, Florence Kathleen Verlander — Against her elite night club there is never a breath of scandal. Mildred Virginia Vick makes her money selling hats; Ruth Blackwell Weaver makes women slim that once were fat. Who is this? O, yes, it’s dainty Charlotte Marjorie West: She’s a creator of styles worn by the very best. Now Kate Sanders Willis is a case in hand Of a radio songbird making more than many a man. On everybody’s tongue is the name Margaret Naomi Williams: They discovered oil on her land and now she’s making millions. Neither can you speak with slight of Alice Whitehead Wise — She’s a lady undertaker, and she wins when a person dies. The lot of Pauline Walton Womack is that of a welfare worker; While Helen Elizabeth Woodward as a lady dentist is no shirker. A national champion golf player is Anne Lee Wright, To watch her swing and drive the ball is certainly a delight. Now Marjorie Newsome is beloved by many boys and girls — She writes bedtime stories about teddy bears and rabbits and squirrels. NOW ' the crystal ball shows changes as the males are revealed: The first is Norman O. W ' . Adams, Jr., one of the best in his field As a tester of weights and measures in the U. S. Bureau of Standards; While Kenneth Nash Archer breeds hounds and Saint Bernards. Another Archer, Thomas Beverley, is a fixer of watches and clocks; And Dallas D. Austin owns steamships and railroads and docks. I see a preacher who sees life rather darkl) — A prophet of doom and destruction is John Alvah Barclay. Theodore Clifton Barr, Jr., sits in the governor’s chair; Richard Hugh Bigelow is a gifted poet rare. I see Odell J.

And still another Cross — Walter Clifton, Junior, Is an undertaker, and he’ll get you later or sooner! A first class taxidermist is Russell Ralton Cummings; Thomas Junius Daughtrey is making his mark in plumbing. A vocation unusual is that of Charles Abner Earnest the Third: He runs a deaf and dumb school and doesn’t have to speak a word. Raymond W ' illiam DeGraw is a painter of beautiful women; Paul Cleveland Dunn, Jr., teaches women swimming; Which brings us to George Delman Eastes who runs a Turkish bath — W ' hile Lawyer Lawrence William Faircloth is a special enemy of graft. A man of letters and wit is George S. Fawcett: He runs a column like W ' alter Winchell, filled with news and gossip. A very learned man indeed is the junior Gaston Simmons Foote — He’s a botanist of renown, and knows every plant and root. But Edward Collins Garris is better known and heard and seen — He’s over in Hollywood starring in pictures for the screen. A general in the army is Earl Meredith George; Isaac Glazer the tailor shop king is always making a voyage Up North to get new goods and see the styles — he’s a shrewd business man While Harry Meyer Glick is the biggest banker in the land. Who’s this? O yes, it’s your old friend, John Louis Gray: He owns a chain of hot dog stands and makes money night and day. .And there’s Mayer Martin Goodman, Detective Goodman if you please!

To all our memories we’ll hold dear And in our hearts make them sincere. ’Tis with a parting tear and sigh That we leave you, dear Wilson High. Words and music by Sarah M.

Second: To popular “Pop” Sweeney, everybody’s pal, a free life-time subscription to Popular Science Monthly. Third: To J. T. Stewart, Jr., our Adviser, deepest thanks and a box of henna to dye the un- intentional grey hairs we have left him. Fourth: To the entire faculty a “flower in their hats” for pulling our numb-skulls through four years and the strength to endure the nerve-wracking art of teaching for many years to come.

If after settlement of estate all bills and expenses met and paid, and a clean slate shown, there remains some unrevealed property, however trivial, we graciously will it to the entire school and our lucky posterity. And so, in the presence of the following witnesses, we set our hand this Fourteenth day of Tune, 1936, A. D. Signed and sealed; SENIOR CLASS OF ’36, W. W. H. S.

Prospects of having even a fighting team looked bad at first, but Wilson’s coaching staff never loses hope and as the day for the opening game approached we found Coach W ' ilde’s Junior Varsity of 1934 the “Fighting Presidents” of 1935. The team looked green at first, just as any inexperienced gridiron hopefuls would look, but as the season progressed we find the Wilsonites losing this complex of inexperience and going out into each game more determined than ever to “bring home the bacon.” With only three lettermen returning from the 19.34 squad — Sam Herbener, Walter Laughon and Paul Terry — we can easily see what a problem the Wilson coaches had to overcome. When we look back over the grid record of 1935 we can really appreciate how much the Wilson mentors accomplished with such a little bit to perform this accomplishment.

Prospects for the coming basketball season looked discouraging, as reports from other schools were to the effect that they were to place championship teams on the hardwood floor. These reports would cause the average Coach, who knew that his chances for a State Championship team were practically hopeless, to lose hope, but these reports did not even phase the mind of Wilson’s esteemed mentor, who whipped into shape a fast and scrapping basketball five composed of Sam Herbener (for- ward), Joe Massey (forward), Joe Golombeck (center), Jimmy Jones (guard) and Frank Brown (guard).

As the first call for candidates was issued we find about forty supposed-to-be ballplayers reporting for the first sandlot practice. Although the newcomers looked green and inexperienced, we found that as the opening game of the Ti iewater Interscholastic Baseball l.eague approached, the Wilsonites put a presentable team on the field. The baseball team, though represented with five new faces, has, so far this season, made a record not at all to be ashamed of. THE B.ASEBALL SCHEDULE. April 11 Wilson 4 Hopewell 5 April 24 Wilson VS.

The lack of a proper place to practice, limited equipment, and small number of candidates make his task a difficult one. This year’s squad, composed of three lettermen — Captain Etheridge, Harry Click, Beverly Vaughan — and several others, in- cluding Golombeck, Nagle, Brown, Diggs, Esleeck, Britt, Whitehurst, Austin and Ruett, are showing fine spirit and are looking forward to a more successful season than last year. The following meets have been sche duled by Managers Daniels and Hockman: SCHEDULE .AND RESULTS April 17 Hampton at Hampton. Wilson, 33K- Hampton, 65J . This meet was Wilson’s first test and also was the first test for many of the men. Hampton proved stronger in some events than was expected and Wilson also took some points which were a surprise. Harry Click proved the high point man, taking first places in the 100 yd. Dash, 220 vd. Dash and the Broad Jump. Joe Golombeck took Wilson’s only other first; this was in the Discus. Austin, Etheridge and Britt were credited with second places, and Vaughan, Esleeck, Brown and Ruett with third places. .April 25 Class .A High School Meet at Norfolk Division May 1 Tidewater Meet at Williamsburg May 5 Meet with Suffolk May 8-9 State Meet at Charlottesville May 14 Meet with Hopewell [ 73 ] NORFOLK COLLEGE Of Business Administration A live, progressive school, with up-to-date equipment, courses of college and university grade, competent, experienced in- structors and high ethical standards COURSES Business Administration Secretarial Science Accountancy (Walton course) Bookkeeping Typewriting Shorthand Stenotype Salesmanship Advertising Public Speaking Banking Civil Service Managerial Law, ( Va.
