m The Prophecy of the Stars of 1939 James Landers, Marian Gibbs. James Kawabata, Barbara Bickkl HIS is your radio commentator broadcasting to you one of the biggest hits of the year. ‘•The Big Broadcast of 1949,'' from in front of the I.a-Ka-Mc Theatre in the down- town district. AH the celebrities and stars are attending and of course the regular autograph seekers. Everyone is here! And ! Ladies and gentlemen, here she is. the star of the evening. Miss Mary Boyce, who plays the lead again, in The Big Broadcast of 1949. She is wearing an em- erald green creation (that Irish.) Her escort is Robert (Taylor) Shcdd. director—they are seeing a lot of each other these days. His former tiancec was Miss Lola Hahn with whom he kept company for ten years, but they finally decided to call it quits. Quite a surprise, eh ? We would like very much to hear from Miss Boyce, but unfortunately she has lost her voice again—too bad. Whom do we see next ? No other than Howard Wood- ard. better known as Tarzan (still combing his hair, he refuses to have it thinned, and of course it makes it more realistic for his jungle Tarzan pictures.) Well, with whom is he? Oh. yes, the Miss Multi-Millionaire Barltara (Hut- ton) Bickel—sav what’s she doing—oh that again. She is passing out her little sample jars of Bickcls' Pickets” to the crowd. Nothing like advertising. Here comes that famous family of the screen, the Jones family and all the little Jones. In real life of course they are Bethenc Rcvcll Jones and Eugene Jones and little Jun- ior. the part is played by Howard Sink. Oh! Oh! Is Gene's face red; he forgot to take his apron off after help- ing with the dishes this evening. Next we see truckin’ down the way that famous in- ventor of all times. Mr. Robert Cruzen: of course he is still carrying his favorite invention in his pocket, his mini- ature phonograph, making it very convenient to dance when the mood strikes him or should I say that old standby of his, jittcrbufging. instead of dancing. There stepping from his limousine is Kenneth Sailors, make-up artist: and. as you know, he specializes in hair styling. Just ahead of him is the second Patsy Kelly, Miss Frances Garshinson. Kenny dashes up ami arranges a misplaced lock and stands l ack to admire his masterpiece. Wait a minute folks the crowd seems to lie moving this way! No. it’s only Miss Doris “Bubbles” Brown and her company of Bubble Dancers who include Elizabeth Batcheldcr. Adeline Ebsen. Hildur Johnson. June Moore. Edna Mac Wallace. Velma Krause and Marjorie Burwick- What in the world? There must lie some mistake for here we sec coming down the curb a Model A Ford; they’ve liarkcd: no one is emerging. Here comes the Theatre Po- lice. Ivory Brummett; and he is writing out the ticket. Their names arc Julia Corey Poindexter and Walter Poin- dexter. Sorry, you can’t park here. Ivory seems to be doing a good business tonight, for he’s after the candy seller. Gerald McDermott (wdio also takes tickets) : he seems to be disturbing Laura Tatham. an extra at M. G. M. He wants to sell her lollypops and it appears she isn’t hungry tonight. Laura is escorted by —oh, I beg your pardon, she is with Harriet Van Buskirk, who is a Sigma Chi housemother. Robina (Hcddy) Lamarr is now stepping from the curb accompanied by the tine and only, dynamic Max (Schmeling) Mcdow. her famous prize lighting husband. Rushing up to them is Virginia Woolf, top notch reporter of the Toonerville Times. From under her mink wrap, she pulls out her camera and dashes a shot of Miss Lamarr. Allen Hollingshead. professional checker player, is the re- porters’ escort; and now he is trying to save her from I ic- ing mobbed. The onlookers back up. there docs not seem to be so much enthusiasm, for here comes Boris Karloff (Kellogg). With him is Frankenstein his creator. Ed Milton, and the Bride of Frankenstein, whom we recognize as Iarah Hur- witz. Speaking of contrast, gracefully tripping up the walk is Miss Betty “Boop Peterson. The crowa seems to en- joy her more than they do Karloff. Is this a masquerade, or is it? Scrub women, Betty Jane Chambers and Ellen I niise Hulme seem to have conic in the wrong door, and they still have their mops. Poor policemen, an autograph hunter just broke through the ropes and is erroneously asking Betty and Ellen for their signatures. The enthusiastic old maid school teacher (you can tell by her looks) is Miss Catherine Dickey. Oh! Oh! Everyone is frightened for they know Fritz “Itches” Leas, with his trained tleas. The people arc trying to dee. Wait a moment folks. Who’s that following Itches? Why it’s none other than collegiate Kelly Berk- ley. who is trying to work his way through the crowd (and college) to sell Vernon Tidwell’s famous combination dea and tooth powder.
