Gllaaa lgrnpherg--1944 Through the remote-control facilities of sta- tion CHS, we now switch you into the future to our county fair-15 years hence. It is the year 1959. Our announcers will attempt to describe the personalities present and the var- ious scenes of activity. 'Round and round it goesg and, where it stops, nobody knows!' '1'hat's right, ladies and gentlemen-it's none other than the merry-go-round, run by the one and only Don Estabrook, who admits that it does make him dizzy sometimes. As we leave Don entertaining the younger generation, we come to a small-.tent, myster- iously shrouded in secrecy. Lets go in-just for fun! Well, if it isn't Artemis Duskas, one of those cognizant fortune tellers. Any news for us, Artie? After that enlightening f?J escapage, we venture forward to find something calmer and less revealing. The sign on the tent door says, 'they're a hitl' The crowd seems to think the sameg so does the barker, Nelson Bessette, who doesn't know whether to mind the crowd or watch his own show. Jostling our way through the mass of people, we finally enter, our curiosity getting the better of our good judgment. And, no wonder-the 'Light-footed Lindy Hoppers' are now performing. They are our old classmates Eleanor Aldous, Louise Bascom, Mary Burwell, Barbara Bennett, and Carmela Capalario. But we can't linger here as much as we'd like to. There are plenty of other shows to be seen before the day is through. Oh, yes, here's an interesting performance -the ball-rolling contest. Just guess whom we find here-Marian Barber and Lois Gray. Such precision, such accuracy! fThere are mats on the floor-just in casel. Careful, girls, that man over there is going to set off a fire-cracker. But we'll stop him! Well, imagine that-Jim Locy. How come you're not a part of the show, Jim? Oh, you're a scient- ist-for the Better-Cows-And-How-To-Keep- Them-So Company. Rather interesting, I presume? Well, so long, Jim, see you around sometime. h Gee, we're getting hungly. Wonder if there is anything good to eat over in that booth '! Well, it it 1sn't Bettie Barr and Winnie Connor. I.ei's see-hotdogs, lemonade, candy-what's that fuzzy, pink stuff there? Cotton candy? Well, there's always a first time! So long, girls. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this certain- ly is cotton alright. What was that noise? Sounded like it came from the Hell-Driver's staugum, Oh, there's been an accident! Colin McLean, famous Hell- Driver, has been hurt. His companion, Denzil Bowman, is trying to untangle him from the debris. There he is now-not much the worse for wear. Well, let's continue. There's one of those guess-your-weight affairs. I'm going to try it. Hello, Dunk! This is Earl Dundelburg, folks! Same, jolly, carefree Dunk. And right near Dunk is the glass-eater-none other than Don Forsythe, He's going to regret it some dayjr Passing by the adjacent tent, we see the sign to the Midget show, 'Bob and Margaret.' That probably means Bob Moore and Mar- garet Bates, but who'd ever thought they'd shrink to such dimensions? I wonder who those three good-looking ma- rines are over there? It looks like Joe Burn- ham, Jack Cornell, and John Haney. They just got back from Poland where they were sta- tioned so many years ago. When the war ended these boys thought their chances among the opposite sex were better if they remained where they were less well-known. Right along here somewhere is the day show -oh, yes, to the right! Larry Ames and his wife, the former Helen Cardinal, seem to have done one swell job of training those pups! What a show! Say, I don't believe I've told you about any ol' the flower or vegetable shows yet, have I? Let's try a couple. Here's one-Mary Brown, Ruby Dandy, Clara Briggs, and Bertha Law- rence. Just look at the gorgeous Bowers- lilacs, pansies, and tulips. Did you girls raise those by yourselves? Excellent work! This vegetable show next door looks interesting. I might have known it-Ed Martin and Doug Mayhew. My, those potatoes certainly look interesting. They're a new variety--grown without skins, and when they're removed from the ground, they're already parboiled! We just learned from Ed that Francis Mul- vaugh and Loana LaVare, engaged to be mar- ried in the near future, were called away on business early yesterday morning. Even though they cannot be here in person, we know they are in spirit. Margaret Fitzgerald and Mary Elizabeth Grant just strolled by. It seems that they are secretaries to the manager, Bill Smith, and they really haven't a thing to do. Well, imagine that-Elizabeth Desmond and Helen Kenyon selling balloons. No, thanks, girls. I really couldn't afford one at the mo- ment. And there's Shirley Jones! I wonder what she's up to-probably she's stirring up the crowd to find someone to trade with the Lone- ly Hearts' Club. She's the advertising man- ager, you know. There's the knife-throwing show. Blackie Hayden, aided by the able Betty Carraher, is performing one of his miraculous deeds. Be sure to hit the apple and not Betty's head, Blackie. And now I turn the mike over to our other announcer for further description of the fair. The first person I notice is Bill Smith, gen- eral manager of this great fair. To the right of the microphone is the loop-the-loop and right in front of the ticket window, buying tickets ffor their ten children-they left the other five at homej, is none other than Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Woodley. t'Near by, and at a distance of about 50 feet above my head are the famous tight rope walkers, Jane Maroney, Grace Peters, and Lois Newman, performing with utmost accuracy their difficult stunts. Oh! Here in front of me is the renowned fire-eater, Janet Manley, now tasting the
