A Glance to the Future A blare of bugles, and the crowd begins to sway rhythmically to the smooth strains of Channon H. Krupsky ' s Tune Ticklers, the melodic music permeating the stately halls of the Gubernatorial Mansion at Springfield. Many nationally-famed celebrities have come to attend the inaugural ball; strange as it may seem, most of them were former classmates at the Chicago Normal College in 1936. The affair was successfully planned by Miss Bunny Spain, social secretary to His Excellency, and her able assist- ants, Rosemary Dushek and Marge Newlands. In the center of the ballroom is Marge Klein, composer of the ' nation ' s latest hit tunes, and Anna Keating, dramatic star, doing the rhumtang, the latest in ball- room dancing. Eagerly applauding their efforts are two of the country ' s leading newspaper hawks. Bob Cleary and Evelyn Glazer; also Bernice Kuellmer, Olga Yar- moluk, Irene Liszt, and Rose Ann Schatzman, who are raising ballroom dancers of their own. Over in a corner we see Elaine Skelton, leader of the Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra, arguing with Glen Armstrong about the merits of symphony music and jazz. Eagerly listening to the discourse are Ed Quinn, the screen ' s greatest lover; Louise Savage, radio ' s outstanding comedienne; Myrtle Lynch, child psychologist; and Betty Cowell, interpreter of the modern dance. A hush has come over the assembly, as the program is about to begin. The ' first number is the Swell Song, from Like Me, sung by Dorothy Horrocks. Next Alberta Maxwell reads her annual ode to Spring. An excerpt from the play, As Millions Sneered, written by Mary Simpson and Marge O ' Brien, is presented, with Helen Marie Murphy, Augie Flugel, Joel Walters, Dolores Hurney, Rose Davis, and Elizabeth Fosse in the stellar roles. Now we have a panel discussion, headed by Olive May Wilhelms, on the philosophical merits of being a May Queen. Her com- mittee consists of Rachel Rosen, Elien Levander, Alice O ' Shea, Marian Riordan, Ruth Porter, and Esther Garber. A vote is taken and Lucilc Rice, wife of a leading opto- metrist, says The eyes have it! The trumpets now introduce a million dollar fashion show, presented by Mademoi- selle Marguerite Clinchay, leading stylist, who knows what the well-dressed woman should not wear. The models are Josephine McGrath, one of the 400; Libuse Baitel, head of the Meat Packers ' Union; Frances Reedy and Florence Wiaduck, champs of women ' s tennis and golf; and Edna Sonken, president of the National Baseball League. Following this, we have a series of talks on World Travel, given by the globe-trotters, Eugenia Shea, Ethel Steinberg, Martha Boiling and Grace Martinek. A musical sextet is next, featuring the harmonious voices of Eleanore Young, Lillian Bencur, Marge Johnson, Fred Gunderman, Flo Westermeyer, and Julia Giles. We settle down for a long debate, Is Progressive Education better in city or country schools? The participants are Ruth O ' Connor, Ruth Duff, Mary Leyden, and Kay Bonfield. Judges of the debate are Evelyn Savage, Dean of Teachers ' College at Colum- bia; Betty Sundmacher, president of the Illinois P.-T.A., and Ray Goodwin, head of the Board of Education. The program finally conies to its close with the announcement refreshments are served , and there we find none other than Amalia Monaco and Felicia Pacelli be- hind the old familiar samovar. The catering service is ably supervised by Marge Fitz- gibbons, who is now a retired movie queen. The rooms are beautifully decorated through the cooperation of the nation ' s outstanding artists, Gert Roy, Mally Gilbert and Ruth Kennedy. A picture of the assembled group is taken by none other than Josephine Nohelty; it is to be hung in Marge Krafft ' s chateau in France. And now, who is responsible for this reunion? Why, none other than your friend, Mary Roy, who has become the wife of His Excellency, the Governor! Mary Roy.
