3« SENIOR °i J‘ annum Hello! Mary Carol, imagine seeing you in Birmingham hut then absolutely everybody that's anybody at all has been in Birmingliam during the last six months to sec the World's Fair. I've heard that quite a few jieoplc went to Paris in 1950 when it was there, but those who thought they had ten more years of life saved their mopey to come to Birmingham in 1960. Why Mr. Ronald Shafer, of the Shafer Hotel over the second Avenue Cigar Store, owned and operated by John Cole, said they have to rent rooms for 8 hours at a time; a man had to sleep 8 hours, run around 8 hours, and stand in front of the BintitHyliaw watching the girls come out—a quite satisfactory arrangement. Why I’ve seen everything from lipstick to a rocket ship (James O'Hcar patented the rocket ship) on exhibit at the Fair. The most outstanding feature of the sltow was the prize winning, three act comedy “Blow up the Blimp written by Betty I.ouisc Smith and put on by Mark Lyons. Darryl F. Zanuck's deadliest rival these days. Mary Fllcn Stammer is still the rage in the comeback of Our Town , only it's not as easy for her to climb the ladder now a » it was in the old days. The blue ribl on went to Luther Franklin, who perfected a Whachamogoogum , a little instrument that makes it possible for a husband to go out with the boys and still tell his wife everything the lecturer said. This should prove to Ik- a good device for Bill Nixon. And speaking of inventions, Peggy Agrain has invented a perfectly marvelous toe dance. She is lieing featured at the Auditorium this week with her chorus of dancing girls—Dorothy Lightfoot. Sylvia Walker, and Faircnc Hanks. How my mind wanders!! We were talking about the World’s l air. You know, if there’s anything more alluring than cosmetics it's more cosmetics. The first thing I came to was I la Dean Hill's exhibition oi her new face powder which glows in the dark (attention all boys.) Did you know that Billy Simmons is a dancing instructor? I didn’t either until I saw him demonstrating his ability the other clay. Miss Ivina Gilland is his partner. After showing people how to dance without danger of falling backwards or spraining one’s ankle doing curves. Miss Gilland made a plea for the innocent, old-fashioned “Jitterbug” and condemned the now | opular Soomha . Jean Gentry married some man and they went as missionaries to Korea. Were you at the Fair the other day when Hugh Henderson was doing his stunt act. Why he nearly scared me to death when he hung by his teeth from an airplane. He gets his picture in Movie Tone News all the time. Really I'm afraid he is going to be a vain as Miss Kathleen Jones (now Mrs. Harry Early) who has long been famous as a diver. I was among those present at a lecture she gave the other day, How to Remain Attractive Thn' Married . Did you know that they now have lady tarkers. As I was passing a big tent featuring Catherine McDuffie, trick pianist who plays five pianos as once, there was Christine Deadwyler yelling through a megaphone (as if she needed it), Step right up ladies and gentlemen; don't miss this exciting attraction, only one thin half-dollar. When 1 entered the tent who should I see but Sam Sturdivant demonstrating his marvelous abilities. He was signing autographs for the throngs around him by drawing a caricature of himself. He informed me tltat he and my old friend, Jim Webster, were in business together as traveling artists. After I got home from the Fair, it was good to sit down with my daily copy of the Knsley Journal, edited by Floyd Holder, whose very callable assistant is Lillian Batey. And two of the Journal’s reporters, Marion Milaxzo ami Christine Mitchell have done an excellent job of building up the jw|kt until it has become one of the leading journals in the country. Yes. I was reading the others and saw the headline that the famous orchestra leader. Tommy Cacioppo. Had stopped in Birmingham, while on a tour. When I turned to the societ) page I came across the picture of a very lovely lady. Joy I ove. who had just returned from Paris where she plans to establish her own radio program, LTicure de Joic Amour. Traveling with Joy was a future comedienne, Inez Janney. Irma Gilbert (now Mrs. Don Blankenship) who lives next door to me told me that Lena Priola has finally settled down ami is living in Central Park Gardens. Well, I seem to have wandered off the subject again, but anyway I must be going. I have tickets to see the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra tonight. Ami you know, the orchestra is conducted by George Thomas. I really must be going. I have been promising to write Charles Sides a letter, you know he is minister to Borneo now. Well. Bettyc, it's been nice seeing you. Yes. it's really l een nice finding out about all our old friends. I'll see you soon. Bye—Bye—. Mary Carol Copeland Bettyc Lou Smith
