FUTURESCUPE By Redda Ropper-HoIlywood's Hello folks, this is Redda again coming to you directly from Hollywood this line january day in 1970, and bringing you all the latest news and gossip. Did you know that Miss joyce Behney, well-known speed typist, has just married the famous multi-millionaire, Roger Kauff- man? The United States has just been struck by the world-shaking news of Einstein's and Bloss's combined theory on the study of the Female Species and Why. A little bird just told me that Robert Boyer and his wife, the former Betty Cross, have announced the arrival of their third set of twins! Congratulations! The well-known surgeon, Dr. Richard Spayd, is flying to Alaska with his private nurse, Madelyn DeLong, to set up a prac- tice there. Perhaps though, the real reason is to recuperate from his most recent love affair with the famous debutante, Miss joan Wagner! Dr. Donald Dengler, noted veterinarian, has just employed Misses Gloria Putt, Doro- thy Spatz, Ianice Brehm, and Sara Eiler to work in his new Pussy and Puppy Hospitalf' Flash!!! I have just received the spectacu- lar news from the Olympics that Donald Dissinger has broken the world's high jump record by jumping zo feet! Everyone agrees that the new plastic home on Park Avenue, owned by Miss Ioan Fet- ter, New York socialite, is quite intriguing. But most of the credit is due to the contract- ing company of Robert Shartle. Dolores Moore has just sold her beauty salon and has moved to Hollywood to be- come the hair stylist for the famous movie star, Esther Mae Gable. Miss Cable is now playing opposite that new heart-throb. Henry Cosch, in Wuthering Heights. Be sure and get your tickets now for the exciting jet auto races. Come right out to the new track that playboy, Billy Crimes, opened the other day. Last week, when I was visiting the Ohio famous woman columnist State Fair, I found to my pleasant surprise, an old friend of mine, Mary Manbeck, dis- playing her prize steer. By the way, Income Tax time is here and if you want your taxes computed accurately, call on Mr. Edgar Seigfried at 1122 Forty- tirst Street. The employer of Dentist Assistant, Doro- thy Nicholas, has finally popped that all im- portant question! After nineteen years, it's about time! Guess what! Athlete, jean Filbert, has just won the Women's Lightweight Wrestling Championship of the world. This is really becoming a woman's world! Congratulations Jean! But of course we must give a great deal of the credit to her able manager, Marlin Lengel. We have a celebrity among us today, the girl jockey from Texas, Kathy Stewart. She will be racing here Saturday in the Holly- wood Tea Bowl Race on her famous mare, Mint julepf' Cuess who all the girls are swooning over in the new Broadway hit, f'Make Mine Women? You're right, the one and only uladies' man, Richard Cerhart. While on the subject of Broadway: the noted Shakespearian actress, petite Ioanne Matthew, will play Ophelia in Hamlet, opening soon at the Avon Theater on Broadway. I know everyone will want to see it. I ran into that top-flight fashion model, Shirley Smith, the other day. Rumors are flying that she and news reporter, Quentin Cettel, are eloping to Europe, but neither of them will confirm this statement. Who knows? Now for a bit of good advice for pleasant listening, tune in every Sunday over Station XYZ and listen to the Rev. Peter Grimes and his half-hour program. It's time for me to sign off so l leave you now with this thought for you to remember: The Road called Toil leads to the city called Success.
