the events by over 150 years, were
discovered in a rare volume, "The

to the Clements Library collection.
Anonymous Prophet
The forecasts are found in an
anonymous article bidding fare-
well to the great scientist, Joseph
Priestly, when he decided to emi-
grate to the United States.
The prophet anticipates the St.
Lawrence Seaway in: "The Missis-
sippi and the St. Lawrence shall
stretch forth their arms to em-
brace . . . through those vast in-
land seas."
He continued his observations
into the future, foreshadowing the
Panama Canal with: "The Pacific
Ocean shall pour into the Atlan-
tic." His crowning prophecy is:
"And why may not the science
which produced gunpowder, pro-
duce another power which, in-
flamed under a certain compres-
sion, might impel the air, so as to
shake down the strongest towers,
and scatter destruction."
English Ban
The book, chiefly concerned
with the fighting Irishmen bat-
tling for representation in parlia-
ment and eventual independence,
was banned by the English when
first published in Dublin. Un-
daunted by this, emigrants
brought it to the U. S. and pub-
lished it in Philadelphia in time to
celebrate St. Patrick's Day 153
years ago today.

Dawson Bids 'U' Farewell,
Takes Off for Washington
It
By PHYLLIS KULICK and
CRAIG WILSON
There is a great big hole in the
'Ensian office today.
That is the vacancy left by the
irrepressible Buck Dawson, 'En-
sian managing editor and campus'
huckster-deluxe, who took off yes-
terday into the wide, wide world
-first stop Washington, D.C.
Althdugh Dawson will carry the
responsibility for the 1948 year-
book in his knapsack, as official
editor, associate editors Jean
Kodish and Rozann Radliff will
be editors-on-the-spot.
Rejection Slips
Included with their regular jobs!
will be filling the Dawson shoes.
This entails, interviewing Holly-
wood agents daily, receiving all
rejection slips from the Saturday
Evening Post, and writing operas.
Commenting on his venture to
the land of politicians, Dawson
struck a courageous pose: "If
called upon by the people, I will
not shirk my duty."
Although he may have been
considering the coming presiden-
tial election, Dawson has 'duties'
in the capitol. He is to be assistant
editor of the Phi Gamma Delta
fraternity magazine and publicity
man for the group's coming 100th
anniversary convention.
Cooler Climes
But when the hot summer sun
boils down on Washington, Daw-
son plans to head forthe cooler
climates' of Canada and plan a
tour of music halls in England.
With comely Adele Hager as
head counselor, Dawson will head
for Camp Bil-O-Wood, a resort
on Blind River, Ontario, about 90
miles into the wilderness north of
Sault Ste. Marie, for the summer
months.
Adele and Buck hope to put to-
gether a stag'e routine and head
for 'Merrie Englande,' after she
graduates.
