Description: CLASS PROPHECYHere we are in 1971 at the newly established National Basketball Finals. It is an hour until game time and the bleachers arefilled; so I think Ill wander around and see all the members of the51 class of E. H. S. who are here for a class reunion. No wonderall of them are here. Ellettsville High is playing in the finalgame. All the Eagle players are sons of the boys who played on thatgreat 51 Eagle team—Morris, Allen, Halstead, Judah, Justis, Ping,Helton, and Stephenson.Directing the E. H. S. Band is Mrs. Joseph Votchsky, the formerBarbara Blackwell. Barb went to Russia soon after graduation tostudy music under the famed Votchsky, her idol, and drove our Stalin.The delighted Russians presented her with Votchsky. Half time entertainment will be provided by George Patrick, muscle man of 71, afamous acrobat. George will be leading a few yells for the Eagles.Theres a strange looking trio--must be some more of the 5lers.The tall, flashy, be-mustached character is D. H. Courter, infamousgambler. He has just come from his trial in the Supreme Court andis accompanied by Chief Justice Richard Justis, the fat, bald, anddistracted gentleman. The dark, handsome, and distinguished manwith the gold braid is Melville Miller, a colonel In charge of D. H.Looki M. G. M. is here today—no longer Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer,but Morris, Grubb, and May. Ward looks after the female stars; Deeafter the male stars; and Froggie after Ward and Dee. They havewith them the stars of their newest release, Witless. DorisLiford and Dan May are naturals for their parts, dont you agree?That eccentric gentleman with the beautiful long, golden curlsand in the orange and green polka dot smock is Dave Judah, famousabstract painter. Arguing with him is Wendell Allen, his bitterrival, who paints realistic portraits. I wonder if their argumentis about painting or their basketball sons.One group contains the literary elements of the class. Thereis the former Lois Roberts, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. After winning the prize, Lois had a change of heart and isnow writing melodrama for comic books. Dont be frightened bythat grusome looking pair, Mr. and Mrs. Horrorz Terrore. Mrs.Terrore is the former Judy Judah. She and her husband write booksof such horror that readers are required to pass a rigid physicalexamination before reading them.Oh, dearl Theres poor Dave Helton. See how white his hairis and how feeble he is? You can tell he has been through someterrible experience by the expression on his face. It is entirelythe result of reading one of the Terrore specialties. The beautiful woman with him is his nurse, Betty Noel. Betty gave up hercareer as an airline stewardess to devote her life to caring forDavid.Here is the man who is truly the worlds richest. J. DelmarHalstead is readily recognized by all mothers. Halstead made hismillions from the enormous sale of his new-style diaper. Almostas rich is Mrs. P. Myers. Mrs. Myers, the former Martha Lyles,made her money from the sale of newsmobiles. Newsmobiles are thevehicles that can be used on land, on sea, and in the air. Marthastole the invention from her poor henpecked husband.16
