“We’ll now switch to our second camera located in another part of the church. Here we find several guests who seem to be renewing old memories. As we turn on our microphones we hear JERRY LYNCH and RALPH BARST, two well-known politicians just endiqg a discussion on world affairs. Of course, you all know that Mr. Lynch is Michigan’s governor and Mr. Barst is our most popular representative.” “Well, Jerry, that’s enough on that subject. You know, I was talking to RAY HOWE a while ago, and he was telling me about his 1000-acre cattle ranch in Oklahoma. He uses his helicopter now to get from one field to the next, instead of the hot-rod he used to just fly low in.” “Yeah! I guess all those times we thought he was sleeping in school he must have been dreaming up a good future. I was talking to JACK BOZUNG, too. He owns a small garage back in Hemlock and has a lawn-mower sharpening business on the side. He was telling me that HELEN WILT and GLADYS KELLEY were sorry they couldn’t come. They’re both married now to their old steady beaus, and they couldn't find any baby sitters for their little monsters.” “Well, that’s the way it goes sometimes. Say, I heard that PAT ROGERS is one of the most dignified and clever models for ‘CHARM’ in New York. She sure has worked her way up the ladder. She started out for ‘Sears Roebuck’ back in 1956.” “Let’s go now to the sidewalk outside the church. We have discovered that our camera- man is from the Hemlock vicinity and knows several of the guests. Let's listen as he introduces more ot the grooms old classmates.” “Thank you, Mr. Bronchitus. Ladies and gentlemen, I would like you to meet a lady who is one of those that few appreciate but who is very important to our American democracy. Her name is MARY McCLELLAN and she is the Circuit Court Judge for the state of Michigan. “Next we would like you to meet VIRGINIA BETTS, the secretary to America’s best beloved tap dancer, C. Wilbur Wiggle. We have often heard Mr. Wiggle comment that she is in- valuable to him as a secretary, and that he would’t trade her for her weight in gold. “Driving up in a Jauguar we see two men who are in the motion picture field. Sorry to say they aren’t famous in themselves but they seem to have promising careers ahead of them. The first is GERALD KENNELLY, understudy to Slip Mahoney, leader of the lovable Bowery Boys. The second is JOSEPH HORNY. He’d like to be another Rudolph Valentino but he’s only an understudy to dashing Rock Hudson. Oh, there’s a lady I’m sure everyone would like to know. She’s VIRGINIA HORNY, chief chef at the ‘Brown Derby’, Hollywoods most famous night spot. Her specialty is cherry pie, and what cherry pie! There’s another big convertible pulling up. Whocould that be? Oh, that’s DONALD ANA- MAN. He must have just arrived home from his latest African safari. I heard his catch wasn't up to par this time; he only got 2 elephants, 2 apes, 4 lions, 3 tigers, and 4 giraffes! Now, here is a man of different character. I’d like you to meet Mr. ROY BURDO. For many years he has been the pride of Doyletown and was lately elected mayor of that fair city. “Also living in that town is our nextguest. Meet veterinarian ED GREENWOOD, the friend of the friendless. He’d rather treat a stray alley cat than hear about the aches and pains of any human. “We take you back now to Mr. Bronchitus.” “Thank you, Mr. Johnson, for letting us meet those interesting people. We shall take you back now to our first camera in the entrance of the church. There seems to be quite an interesting conversation going on between more of the guests. We’ll see if we can pick it up on our hidden mikes.” “CORINE LIEBROCK in the Lonely Hearts business! I never would have believed it I Will wonders never cease! ? ”

You are about to witness one of the greatest events to occur in the year 1970. Everything is exactly as it will be'then except YOU ARE THERE! We take you now to the scene of this important event. Our cameras are located in the main entrance of the National Cathedral. The people are arriving and beginning to congregate. Oh, there comes a man we all know as the greatest sportscaster baseball has ever known. Let's stop him. “Mr. RAY BURDO, could you spare a minute to talk with us? How does it happen you’re here today? ” “Why, I’m an old classmate of the groom. He graduated from Hemlock High School in 1954, and he has invited all the members of his class to his wedding. “Hemlock? I heard that the famous TV star of “Life Is Worth Living If You Don’t Drive Too Fast , DONNA CRAVEN, came from there, too. “Yes, she did. From what I remember, her program is a follow-up of her high school days.” “Thank you, Mr. Burdo------A lot of guests have arrived during this interview. Let’s try to overhear the conversation between those two ladies. “Why, NORMA SNYDER, I haven’t seen you for at least 10 years. You must work your- self as hard as you used to. Are you still‘Nimble Norma’on the trapeze for the Big Top? “CONNIE WANLESSI Hello! Yes, I still perform and love every minute of it. Say, Connie, I heard you are helping Walt Disney out on his latest picture, “Gone with Windy Waddles.” You always could draw cute cartoons. Remember those pictures you drew of your favorite teachers? ” How could I forget them! Oh, look! There’s WAYNE KREAGER and FRANK KOLINSKI over there. I suppose you’veheardhow Wayne really makes money on his Used Car lot in Florida. And did you know that Frank quit teaching World Literature and became Waynes full partner? 1 guess Judge O’Neill was right when he said teachers are always broke. YOU ARE THERE May 17, 1970

“Well, GARY RICE, you sure haven’t got much to say. This country would be a gangster heaven if you ran the only detective agency. In all your ten years, I’ll bet you haven’t caught more than twenty criminals.” “Confidentially, haven’t caught any. I’m only Friday’s sidekick, what do you expect?” “Yes, I know. But, I’ve read in the ‘CHICAGO NEWS’ about what a great hero you are. Maybe that’s because FRANCES KOHLHOFF, the crime editor for that paper, does a little re- writing sometimes?” “Yes, she certainly does a good job. Talking about Chicago, did you know PATSY BROWN and SHIRLEY WENZEL are there, too? They're co-owners of a beauty shop down town. I think their mono is something like ‘Walk In Like An Old Hen, Walk Out Like A Slick Chick’. I guess just about every old hen in town has been there. “Yes, all our old friends are doing pretty well for themselves. Remember how JoANN VAN BOCXLAER was so active in 4-H work? Now she’s National 4-H Leader, and does nothing but sit behind a big desk and give orders. I guess DON SMITH is really up there too. His murder mysteries are the tops in the U. S. today. They’re even worse than “Horror Comics”. “I never read one, but they sound exciting I I saw JUDY ROCKWELL and DOROTHY KALTENBACH somewhere here today. I guess youknow they’re both in the Artie Shaw Orchestra. We’ll get a chance to see how good they are when they play later at the reception. “Yes, I knew they were in his band. Did you know that they played once at the Golden Glow, the old gang’s favorite hideout ? SHIRLEY SEIDEL, the owner, really has made it into a popular place for the whole state of Michigan. The night they were out there GLEN CHAPIN was the guest singer. He sure made himself famous by touring the country with the leading bands. All the teenagers in the country swoon when they hear him.” “I saw some more of our old friends today too. IRENE SAUVE finally got a day off to come. She is governess for the president’s children and hauls in the money. “And I saw ED HENRY, who just finished decorating the groom’s home. He is one of the best known interior decorators in the East. I heard he even decorated Lord George of Salisbury’s home in England. The last person I saw from home was ANN BALLINGASH. She’s a lieutenant in the WACS, and stationed at Fort Benny, Georgia. She said she is the General’s secretary. “Now, the wedding is about ready to begin, so we will take you to the chapel. There the bride and her attendants are waiting for the first strains of Lohengrin. The beautiful Dutchess of Berk- shire is dressed in white satin and carrying white orchids on her white Bible. “The groom’s attendants are coming out now. The first is JAMES PRETZER, an old friend of the groom and a mathematics professor at Yale University. Next is the best man, RICHARD WIETFELDT, another old friend, who is an insurance agent for Mutual of Omaha, in Nebraska. The minister has taken his position in front of the alter. He is the Reverend FRANK FREDERICK RAUCHHOLZ, of the Trinity Lutheran Church of Philadelphia. Before us now is the happy groom. In a few moments the knot will be tied, and the radiant couple will be--Mr. and Mrs. JAMES OLDENBURG!” “Sorry, but our time is running out. This is Walter Bronchitus signing off for this week. You have just witnessed headline news of May 17, 1970. Everything was as it will be then except: YOU WERE THERE
