PROPHECY Marie Fusilli is engaged in buying miles of hempen rope. Still hoping, you know, to, hitch her wagon to a star. Martin Platt is doing his best to show his breeding and imbibe a bowl of soup of dandelions brought to Miss Durbin. A billboard catches our roving eye depicting the latest movie venture of our own Donald Hall, known now as the possessor of the profile of the silver screen. Central Park provides the setting for Henry Hankel's act for the Rustle Tustle Muscle Builder. Stage effects . . . Hank lifting tons of bar bells and dumbells. No we don't mean Bart Vuolo, he's in Mesopotamia. joseph Leonard, now one of the city's fire Chiefs', innuring firemen to the thrill of catching fire victims. He received special training in high school in jumping from windows f3rd story onesj. The strain of Leffertz's Fourth Movement in Asia Minor wafts from a window in Greenwich Village. No wildlhaired Bohemian greets our eyes but none other than the composer of such hits as ujdhnny and Frankie and I've been working on the Mirror, he, himself, George Leffertz. We meant to drop in on Jerome Gardenia Perchik but in his post as Public Relations Counsel for the United States government, he is busily em- ployed in distant Andora convincing the natives of that nation the glories of Woman's Suffrage. Not a bad idea donchathink? Out in Rockaway we meet jack Wilkin, one-time golf champ, now chief greens keeper there. If he learns to cut lawns much faster, Tony's job at East- side will be in danger. Our list of names exhausted we look around amazedly. What heathen land is this? Our hearts sink at the prospect of the tramp back from this seemingly deserted spot. But ever to the rescue comes the U. S. Army. Sargeant Zallo fstill retiredj toots his tweet and from every rock, tree and fence spring the boys from the U. S. Navy and home we go in the style we would like to be accustomed to. M. W. P.

CL SS Somebody once said that if anyone built a bigger and better World's Fair than Smiles Whalen the world would beat a path to his door. So with a rug beater in one hand and a snow shovel in the other we begin a caravan to the homes of our illustrious alumni who left lasting scars in their chosen profession. In lieu of a professional guide, the United States Marine Corps repre- sented by Top Sargeant Anthony Zallo Qnow retiredj, will conduct us to the homes of the budded and drooped genii of Eastside fame. Harvey Asher, we find, fills the best part of a castle on Blossom walk. Outside the door hangs the legend Asher, M. D. A conscientious fellow, always. Even now as we watch he is sampling a rare concoction, beg pardon, hair tonic. Adolph Badagliacca swings a bat as long as himself now that the big leagues claim him. He had quite a time getting the job so the story goes. It seems he wanted pay. Hidden in a nook at the new jimmy Coate's World's Fair is jane Bishop demonstrating to scores of eager men a new procedure for making the most devestating paper flowers. In Macy's basement john Bland, author of the best seller, A Smile in Every Home, is offering a special week-end bargain of his book Qahj plus a special personal demonstration fer, uh, ahj for only 551.98 plus tax. Harry Benninger says hello as he flits by on a traveling crane. He likes to personally oversee all work on that stupendous, awe-inspiring feat, the pollution of the too tidy, sweet smelling Passaic River. An earnest group of Princeton Frosh hang on every word of that learned Professor Isadore Goldstein as he conducts his lectures on more painless methods to murder the Kings English, Qlong may it wavej. It's all part of his course in Sports writing, and who should know how? QCertainly not Goldsteinj. Sara Kaufman at the moment is doing her best to placate her implacable brother who insists the best place to hold any World's Fair is about the waist. We would have gone to Harry Coyle but our unpaid dues for member- ship in the Better Living Group might have started trouble.
