Twenty s Years Hence . . . At last we had our two weeks vacation. There we were, HJ. T.', and 6'Benny, cruising across the country on our way to a summer resort. We looked at our gas gauge and almost flipped our lids. It was gasping for a drink. We pulled into the nearest service station and what did we find, but the five ex-charm school girls who rushed out of the Spanish Style shack to attend our needs. They were fast indeed for it wasnit Very long before we were under way. We rode along, but what the heck, for me and that Mercury was neck and neckf' fSay, how did that get in here?l We went along for many miles taking in the scenery and the pomp and splendor of the country- side. Then we happened to see a sign along the road. lt read, '6Visit Far- ragut Heights, the most up and coming town this side of Ybor Cityf' I don't know how it happened, but all I do know is that in the next few minutes the car started to spit, stutter, cough, and then it died. We got out to see what the trouble was and decided that it had finally happened. After all these years, the old buggy had thrown its last fit. We swept the remains into the ditch and began to hitch-hike. It was not long before we saw an odd-shaped vehicle, commonly known as a tractor, traveling toward us. Behind the wheel sat uOne Time Fred Day who offered us a ride to Farragut Heights. We dubiously accepted, not knowing the horrible condition of the road which we later learned had been built by the multi-million dollar uAther Con- struction Company. Upon reaching the town, we were most heartily welcomed by the town,s mayor, Alden H. Elsea, who since we had last seen him had cultivated a goatee. He was accompanied by his capable assistant and adviser, Michael U,Keenan, who previous to his political career was a professional basket- ball player and had spent his last season barn-storming with the '6Harlem Globe Trottersf, We decided then and there that we should again find a home at Farragut.', We ventured into a realty office run by 'gSquare Deal McAnly and that very day moved into our new home which we had financed through the easy going terms of a local loan company, Morris y Morris, Incf' The terms were so easy, in fact, that we were able to purchase also a custom built automobile from 'LUncle Ed Hanna,s New and Used Car Lot. We were informed by Uncle Ed that the body and engine were created, and we do mean created, by J im King, noted automotive engineer. That night we decided to do the town, so accompanied by a real man about town, 4'Gil Broome, we entered Upham's Greek Fish Housef, As we Walked in the door, whom should We find as headwaiter but Big Harry Dukes, and on his staff, still waiting tables were Mllebeln Loy, 'LTony', Mc- Carty, and busboy Dowling. After a very delightful dinner we decided to go to the HF ive O'clock Club fan up-to-date Mom's',j where in the darkest corner we found Handsome Hank Roberts conversing with a beautiful blonde. The proprietor turned out to be an old friend and former classmate,
