THE BLUE AND WHITE you anything to say, Mr. McManus? Yes, I would like to announce that my chemist, Bill Hayden, has discovered an ink that disappears four hours after it is written on paper. Students will soon be able to buy it to give to teachers before report cards come out. And besides that, my factory hand, Robert Ambrogi, has been made foreman because of his invention of a drinking fountain which comes up to meet you when you push a button. i'Now, Misses Cohen and Johnson, take a letter. Dear Mr. Rockefeller, Hi Rocky, Made another million today -. Opera or Jazz? That was Mr. McManus. As you remember, his partner, Ted Fincberg, had taken over the ten largest steel and oil companies and combined them all under one hand, his own. Gloria Gordon, his efficient secre- tary, kept the government men away from him when March IS rolled around, but they got in one day while she was out to lunch. Ted has left home on a ten years' visit to the government's island retreat in San Francisco. But now, folks, here is Jimmie Ryalls, nightclub owner, in company with Leo Desotell, a commander of the U.S. lN4arines, who is here to inspect the recruiting office, headed by Captain Jack Gotthart. Rumors have been circulating as to his interest in Janice Stocks, torch singer. They are stopping. Well, well my friends, have you been feeling blue? Come to the Marine Moor and your heart will be lifted, your spirit will be lifted, your purse will be lifted. And now that I have the opportunity, I wish to an- nounce the engagement of Miss Janice Stocks to my- self. You can't see anything like that in the Borich Bruisef' See you there folks. The Borich Bruise which Jimmy referred to was the nightclub owned by his rival, Frances Borich. Fran sings with her orchestra. Once Jimmy stuffed the horns with mice which leapt out as they began to play. Some silly people leaped to the chandeliers. And it was so hot up there too. Here, tripping along the street impeccably dressed as usual is the future bride, Janice Stocks. I've been shopping for my trousseau at the 'Sibley, Dufault, and Bourgault Shoppe' where the clothes are so chic that no one buys them because they can't de- cide. It's worth going though just to see the fine drawings by Arnold Ehrlich. I must leave now. Goodby. Now going to lunch are Joan Bolster, Mary Ann Scott, and Shirley Harvey, all workers in the Classical- onia clinic where Joan is an X-ray technician, Mary Ann, a nurse, and the beauteous Shirley, a dental hy- gienist. Hello, this is Joan. We were just discussing the fear the male animal has for anything to do with medical science. Everyone of us has trouble with them except Shirley. In her case one man had all his teeth pulled out just to see Shirley. Folks, this is a very busy street as you can hear by the number of people we have interviewed. Ah, but now comes a treat., It is William Katz, owner of the Court Circle Theatre. What is there now, Bill? This week only, we have the two famous singers of Grand Opera who have often appeared at the Metro- politan. They are the Misses Bernice Horowitz and June Schoch, accompanied, by that accomplished pianist, Sibilla Ernst and the Lombard Ballet Group, directed by Betty Lombard. The rumors of the rivalry between the two singers is false. Just the other day, Miss Horowitz presented Miss Schoch with a cake she had baked herself. Of course the frosting was colored with paris green, but think of the sentiment. The price of admission is small. Just the sight of the stage scenery painted by Arnold Ehrlich under the authority of Al Yenian, art director, is alone worth the money. I'll see you there then. Bye. Our time is nearly up, but before we go, here is Everett Weaver, town mortician. He will be glad to bury anyone providing he is dead. That is, anyone except English teachers. Even when they are dead, he is allergic to them. Won't you say a few words, Everett? Hello, I'll be seeing you. And I do mean you. Well here I am again. It is time to sign off. This has been a broadcast from the little town of Classi- calonia. This is station C.H.S.G. signing Off. lSignedl MARY STALTARI, Chairman VIRGINIA PELONV WVILLIAM MCMANUS XVILLIAM IKATZ BERNICE HORONVITZ ,27-

As the last will and testament of the Class of IQ4I M and in the presence of us, the undersigned, who have drawn up and signed as witnesses to the same, we leave this colossal document to Classical High School. lSigned1, IRIS ROTH, Chairman RICHARD ELLIOT RUTH LASTER RI-IODA COHEN The Prophecy of the Class of 19415 Hello civilization. This is station C.H.S.G. broad- casting from Classicalonia. I am standing on the main street of our thriving little town, interviewing the passersby. For it was just twenty years ago in IQ4I that we graduated from Classical High School and founded Classicalonia. Together our class beat a track into the wilderness, blazing the trail with for- gotten detention slips and unused passes. After se- lecting the site and rolling Larry Iviulvancy over the ground to clear it, we built the houses to the chants IChatanooga Choo Chooj of Iris Roth, Bernice Horo- witz, and Frances Borich. Oh the suffering of those early years. However, today you will hear from those brave pioneers. I-Iere is one of them now. It is our eminent mayor, Harold Webber, who was elected on the platform What this country needs is five cents. NVould your honor care to say a few words? Thank you, My friends. If I am elected, I will abolish report cards, teachers, books. I will destroy taxes, I will -O heck, I'll wreck the joint. Thank you, mayor. I am sure your Wise words were heeded by the listeners. And now we have with us that learned gentleman, Professor Lewis Tapp, presi- dent of Eezeelife University. As you know, he re- formed the school system by holding classes from z:oo to 3:oo. Can you give us your reason, professor? Certainly, While at Classical High School, I developed an apitude for doing all my work at that time in a room numbered IOS. That is also the reason for the IOS on my study walls. It makes it more homelike. Hello, proff, what- cha doing here. Got you cornered, hey? Let me say something. Folks, this is Larry Mulvaney speaking to you. The team I'm coaching this year at Eezeelife University will win the title or I'll eat my hat. Never did like that hat anyway. Ladies and gentle- men, that was coach Lawrence Mulvaney speaking to you. But now I see the great busi- ness magnate William McManus, whose offices are on Fence Street. He is surrounded by his secretaries who are taking dictation at a mad rate, for he dictates night and morning. In his sleep he has a dictaphone attached to record his dreams. The able secretaries are Rhoda Cohen and Georgia johnson. Herbie jones, who used to work for him, now works for his wife, Wyonella Green, who certainly keeps him busy. Have ..26..
