there about noon. Jean Pegelow and Mildred Rader greeted our tired eyes as we entered the lobby of our hotel in downtown Los Angeles. Jean said that she was operating the elevator and commented that she was coming up in life, and that Mildred was quite happy with her position as bellhop. They informed me that they had heard from Marjorie Dooley and Eleanor Miller and said that they were both happily married and raising fine broods of little Dooleys and little Millers. The next morning I dropped in at the studio to see my good friend Steve Allen. Steve told me that he had hired himself two new private secretaries, who turned out to be, astonishingly enough, Peggy and Shirley Claybury. They told me that Pat Hausser had landed a job in California clipping Elvis Presley’s sideburns and that she was doing well and liked Elvis very much. I glanced at my watch and observed that it was about time for me to be at the air- field to catch my plane to Kansas City for the first part of the spectacular. After being comfortably seated aboard the plane, the names of the flight crew were announced over the intercom and to my amazement they were: Bob Scheiderer- Pilot, Donald Peart-Co-Pilot, and the stewardesses were Lena Lewis and Marilyn Smith. During most of the flight I read or dozed and was still dozing when a gentle bump and a muffled screech of tires announced Kansas City. Looking around I noticed the beautiful stainless steel architecture of the airport and I inquired who the builder was. Bob told me that Donald Freeman was the architect and that he had practically rebuilt the city in the past few years. Walking across the flight deck I glanced down the runway and saw a jet trainer plane coming in at tremendous speed and weaving like a drunken camel. I was fascinated by the gymnastics of the machine performed in getting down and was a little more than curious to know who the pilot was. Walking over to the plane I saw a huge figure disengage itself from a tangle of wires and oxygen hose and leap to the ground with an earth-shaking thud. He turned to face me and it was then that I recognized my old friend from the class of 57, Larry Laske. Larry and I went inside the terminal to have a cup of coffee and he told me that he was giving flying lessons and that he hadn’t had a single student since last week when both wheels fell off the plane. After leaving Larry, I went to Kansas City’s famous Museum of Natural History for the first portion of the spectacular. The next morning I went over to Paramount Studios and found Anita Washam giving dancing and dramatic instructions to the stars there. She said that she liked her work very much but wished that Marjorie Renne, one of the new starlets at Paramount would not be so temperamental. She told me that Eula Swetnam was the wife of a famous engineer who had perfected revolving doors for the Suez Canal and Diana Summers was the famous artist who had painted them green. Leaving the studios, I saw Fats at the hotel and he told me that we would be leaving in a few minutes. Well, here I am comfortably seated again in the big Strato-cruiser which has carried me over these many and delightful miles. I can hear the engines warming up and I guess we’re about ready to leave. Well that’s where they are ana what they’re doing and from where I sit they’ve done all right for themselves. Don’t you agree? Nostalgically Yours, 17 Dick Steging
