 The time is now 1985, the place, Newport, Michigan. Newport is now one of the chief space stations in Michigan. Today is the day in which the Martians make their yearly visit. People from near and far have gathered here to welcome our friends. Getting off the Jet Propelled Bus driven by Lester Dubke we meet Bill Kahlbaum, Commander-in-Chief of the space station, who will personally guide our tour of New- port. Feeling rather hungry, we headed for the Beckman-Talley Cafe for a bite to eat. Working in the cafe as waitresses were Lorraine Neely, Sharon Clutter, Bev. Wilson, and Sharon Tilley. We later found that Norma Hensley was working as chief cook and Betty Au as her assistant. After lunch we headed down Miller Street, the main street of the City. The street was named after Mark Miller because he was the first spaceman to return to earth, and he landed right in the middle of this street. Captain Bob Karalewitz and Sgt. Doug Ar- quette passed us in the street escorted by two M.P. 's who were Craig Reeves and John Freimark. Passing the Post Office we waved to Lloyd Manor as he was bringing in the daily delivery of the space mail to Postmaster Charlie Harpst. Looking across the street, we saw Glenn Hobgood's armored space car heading to the bank with his daily deposit from Isabel Wyman's Uranium Mine. We stopped at Gerald Buckingham's supermarket and bought some of Elizabeth Gal's candy bars to munch on. Working as checkers in the store were Geraldine Brewster, Andrea Baker, Ovetta Adkins, Elaine Kemyo, and Sandra Carney. Very popular among the customers was Louie Durant's newly invented. Jet Propelled, push-easy food cart. Some customers were having a bit of trouble controlling them. In fact, Judy Green’s push cart was running wild and before it stopped, it knocked down all the displays; ran over Bob Serrotos and Don Heiss who were working as stock boys; and headed down the street for Larry Clark's Rocket Fuel Gas Station. This little episode left us in stitches! Not from laughing, but from being run over by the machine. We were taken to the hospital in Tom Stasa's ambulance. At the hospital Dr. 's Carol Otter, Carol Gibbons, and Guy La Prad applied some of Bob Beck's new formula Super Sonic Cure-all Ointment. Feeling as good as new, we said good-bye to the nurses Juanita Belanger, Carol Woolford, and John Rogers and resumed our tour. We stopped at the zoo which was our last stop before going to the space station to meet the Martians. At the zoo we met a lot of old friends who were either there for a visit, or else they worked there. Some of the visitors were Doug McComas, Ralph Snavely, and Jim Schingeck, who are now successful businessmen in the large metrop- olis of Carleton. Others visiting the zoo were Ron Beaton, President of the Auto Space Factory in South Rockwood; Nina Goss and her 10 children; Jerry Kuderik, Principal of the Jetport High school; and last but not least, was Liz Embree and her dance band composed of Larry Hoffman, Fred Robinson, Mary Mell, Edna Trainor, Ron Masserant, and Betty Johnson. Those working at the zoo were Jim Vasicek, head lion-feeder,
