By picking up the brain waves of Miss Gavin on our Univac we discover Miss Shirley Ferguson, director of nurses at a first-aid at one of Miami's finest resorts. As we travel further southward, we see Miss Joan Lennon, pres- ently engaged as a head nurse on a Penguin ward in Little America where there is known to be a great future. Next, through our Scopedoodle, we pass the home of the fa- mous Redheaded hockey team. Their mother was the ex-Miss Ann Leslie and is now team nurse. It was by coincidence that we discovered Miss Irene Logie, as the modern-day Florence Nightingale who recently landed on the moon with her thousand scrub brushes, While observing Miss Logie on our electronic brain, we learned of the exploits of the former Miss Sally Peters, now a prominent member of Newport Society and the wife of Cornelius X. Ticker- tape, a noted Wall Street executive. After a long and arduous search, we located Miss Olga Maran- jian, now Director of Nurses at Yerevan City Hospital in the newly reinstated country of Armenia. Back home again we located the former Miss Barbara Schelf- haudt, private nurse to the President and wife of General W. Er- ichsen, Army Chief of Staff at the Pentagon. We hope, Miss Flynn, that this contains all the information re- quested by you regarding the Dizzy Dozen, Sincerely, Joan Lennon Jean Colley

On her flight she passes the newly constructed Cosmic Speed- way for midget racers, owned and operated by the former Miss Ioan Dodkin and her husband. Observing through our Scopedoodle we see Miss Elizabeth Doyle assistant to Dr. Nervoustissue Synapse, the foremost brain surgeon in the universe, at her headquarters in Vienna. We knew her O, R, experience would come in handy, From Vienna, we traveled via our Scopedoodle to Boston and found Miss Mary Gavin as Dean of B, C, Night School, School of Nursing.
