BY MISS FREDDIE POWELL.
Greetings:
Brr—‘Since nothing interesting
happened this past week, I had to
rake and rake my brains with
something to fill my column. As a
result, here is ‘The Phophecy’ of
you young people ten years from
now.
Entering the City of Prosperity
which was laid out and planned
by Ernest Taylor and Spike
Brown, I inquired the where
abouts of a hotel for lodging for
the night and was directed to the
Community Center House where
I found Miss Jeanne Malone the
busy and efficient head of the or
ganization. She directed me to the
Wilson Hotel where I found
Ralph and Verne Wilson as pro
prietors. During my evening at the
hotel I met many of my friends
who were now famed in their
fields.
Staying at the hotel were Miss
Winifred Winston well known so
prano with the million dollar
voice. Upon enterting the dining
room of the hotel I saw many
beautiful murals and paintings on
the wall painted by Jeannette
Vinegar and Birdie Powell. While
eating my dinner I saw a young
lady beautifully dressed entering
the dining room. Upon coming
closer I recognized Delores Bowen
who was now a model for the
Warner Brothers Studios. While
talking to her I found out that
Lopy Finley was also out in
Hollywood singing those torch
songs in the movies.
The next morning I decided to
look the town over and was walk
ing down the street when I saw a
modern well to do shop with a
sign reading: ‘Trust your furs with
two good furriers’ with Albert
Bowen and Richard Holcomb
names signed. I entered the shop
and saw Joyce Williams sitting
behind the desk. All four of us
had a merry chat together and
they told me to go to the College
of Prosperity where I would find
many of my old friends. Upon
glancing at the directory on my
arrival I saw some familiar names
such as Dr. Robbie Powell—head
of the history department, Mr.
Howard Bean instructor in his
tory; Nate Casteel, director of the
athletic department under whose
leadeship the team had been very
successful. I looked up these old
friends and then went to the City
Hospital where I found Dr. Curtiss
Buster directing the activities
there with Jeanne Ivory as head
of the nurses. Then they told me
of the successful business Dr.
Robert Taylor has as a dentist. I
looked him up in his modern up
to-date office.
Since it was lunch time by then,
he took me to the beautiful Glaze
Room owned and operated by
Betty Wilson. There I raw Doro
thy Greene who was now head of
the leading newspaper of the
town, who was lunching with Rev.
John Fostor pastor of the largest
church in the town. Looking at
one of Miss Greene’s newspapers
I glanced through the Sports Sec
tion and saw some familiar names
and pictures of famous fighters.
There were: Frank Nevels heavy
weight champion, Bobby Finney
lightweight champion and many
more. They invited me to stay
over so I could see more of my
old friends with their wives and
homes, but I had to go back to my
position in Nashville as superin
tendent of nurses at Meharry
Medical school.
Upon driving from the City of
Prosperity with my chauffeur,
Eugene Graham, I was well aware
that all of us had done well in
our chosen iields.
S’long for now,
Freddie.
