Iiggsissw While attending the Brooklyn world Fair in 1970, I haooened to run into many of my old classmates of E.H.S. As I walked down the midway I saw the big billboard of the fortune teller, and that I just couldn't resist, so I strolled inside. A tall, serious-looking man was seated behind the crystal ball waiting for me. nFrom-the-ohysiological-standpoint-I-interpret-your-call- as-a-gesture-that-you-desire-to-receive-the-knowledge-of-your-future-through-my-uniimited- intelligence,H was the greeting I received. From these words I knew this famous fortune teller vas none other than Gene Ruby, an old classmate of mine. While pushing through the crowd, I was almost bowled over by a force from behind. As it shot on oast me I saw it vas Roger McLain. Before I could take another step, a second streak bolted past. Catching my senses, I asked a by-stander what was happening and he replied, uOh, that! It's just Dolores Roudabush trying to catch Roger, and its been going on since he jilted her for that Thompson girl from Toledo.n The next tent displayed the fabulous Bartacheks. You know Gene is married to the former Shirley Goodrich of Erooklyn. They are proudly showing their two sets of quintuplets While admiring the family we heard the Hsweetest music this side of heaven.H I rushed out to see what famous band it could be and discovered it has Jimmy Murphy and his orchestra, HThe Wonder Blunders,H with Frankie VanTonme as the featured soloist. nAnimals of the Junglesn was the next tent. Inside I discovered it was Mary Lou Oxenreider's animals, vhich she captured in the African jungles while there as a missionary. I left the tent and turned around to bump into a familiar face, recognizing it as Dean Roudabush, the famous doctor. He is the nersonal doctor for the mule of wealthy Bob McKenzie tho has made piles collecting garbage. Then I went on through the midway looking et the advertisements of the rest of the shows. The first one to catch my attention vas nCome in and see Dick Armstrong's cutest Sally Rand in show business.H So I went inside, and guess tho I haonened to see in the chorus line. None other than another classmate, RaVae Antheunis. That seemed to be all the bill board s I could find so I went down to the concessions division. Here has Elsie DeRycke knocking over tin cans with a little ball. She was oretty good at this, as she had experience dumoing little houses on Halloween in her younger days. Next I saw a very interesting grme end decided to Latch it for awhile. Everyone has yelling HKnock her in the vnter!H A distinguished looking man stenoed up to try his talents. It was none other than Don Eueienohl who always had an ambition to be a pitcher. I looked un at the target and saw another classmate, Margie Mowrey, sitting there. It seems she alhays liked swimming and decided this was a good vay to be in eater most of the time. Walking on to the next concession, I found it consisted of knocking over beer bottles. Glancing around, a familiar face caught my eye. It has Bob Dewitte sadly looking at the bottles. You know he is now president of the Alcoholics Anonymous Club. Being unable to see any more exciting games the sides caught my attention. The first person I saw was Jean Hull riding in the kids' car ride. She was always trying to drive a cur but never was too successful, so is now trying to learn by beginning with little kids' cars. In the afternoon I went to the races and discovered Virgil Heishman was driving with Joey Chitwood's nDare Devilsu. After running up on the snowbanks at school he decided this job would be exciting and right up his alley. After coming out of the race track, I saw a large building down the way. I continued on and went in to find a speaker, Jean Ford giving a speech on nWhat's Wrong With Men.n She seems to be quite an authority on this. Don't know how she found all her information. After the speech I ventured on dorm the hall and heard some of the most wonderful hillbilly music. By the sound of the voices I could tell it was Anna Nelson and LeRoy Burns. They here oracticing for their next show. After graduating from high school they decided to combine their singing talents. Also this led to their later marriage. At the farm machinery department I saw Gayle Gross busily demonstrating a tractor to some onlookers. She got her experience on Gene Montgomery's farm when she finally ended un married to him. Near here was an enormous nair of overalls. Beside them I saw Wally Rhinehart telling a grouo of farmers the good ooints of these fine overalls. We discovered Wally was the checker in this overall factory. On the horse barn door vas e huge sign saying nSee the singing horse inside.N I hur- ried in to see what this was all about and found none other that Marilyn Wagner with this miraculous horse. After talking to her I learned she had become a man hater and decided to teach her favorite horse to sing. CContinued on next oagel
