Attention! Ladies and Gentlemen! I take great pleasure in present¬ ing our most outstanding act—the LION ACT. But before we bring them on let me tell the history of these lions. They entered the circus as cubs — wild, frisky, and impatient but under the careful leadership of their trainers they gradually became adapted to the circus life. As cubs they made their first public appearance in an act entitled “The Turkey Trot”. Year number two was marked by an occasional impatient outburst, indicating that they were still somewhat untamed; however, as sophomores they conquered new glory by staging a “Spring Carnival”. Gorged with the feel of success, our lions sought new conquest and under the direction of an able trainer they put their “Best Foot (Paw) For¬ ward” and won wide applause by PROMenading for the senior members of the circus. As seasoned performers our lions lunged into their fourth year led by the four lions outstanding in their performance: Don Lottes, John Rohrbach, Janet Chittum, and John Held. “Don’t Take My Penny”, a hilarious show, staged earlier this year, was met with wide acclaim by circus patrons. So famous had our lions become that pins were sold in their behalf. To wind up their four years of circus life the Lions invited the lions of Crown Point, Hobart, Lowell, and Griffith to the Little-4-Hop. At last, as tribute to their consistently good performance our lions re¬ ceived the two coveted awards of Baccalaureate and Commencement. Now on with the show.
