A Trip Into the Future One lovely night in early spring, I was feeling rather drowsy when suddenly a lovely creature appeared before me. She spoke, and her voice was like silver bells, I have come to take you for a trip into the future. Arise and follow me. I don't know horw I got there, but suddenly I found mfys-elf in a busy and beautiful town in California. It was Hollywood. We saw a large studio, G-F-D, CGoodwin F. Donnellyj. They were casting a revival ofthe picture, Nothing But the Truth, starring two new brilliant stars, Muriel Sweetman and Ralph Foulks. While there, we saw the studio's new' fashion designer, Viola Buhan, with her aide, Thelma Kelvy. Running across the lot and yelling for quiet was the chief electrician, Louis Burr, with John Cook on the sound track, and Baird Barry as photographer. Over on the side was hflargherita Agostinelli, that famous fun-loving, party thrower, who invited us out to a famous night club. Before we left, however, Goody the director, invited us into his private office, where we saw Olga Pfeiffer as his private secretary. He' told us about his new art directors, Ruth Carlson and Kathryn Butler, who were working on some scenery for a forthcoming production. We decided to visit a concert being held for charity. At the concert we heard the famous pianist, Miss Nolah Sutphin, also Julius Ilku, the noted violinist. John CDukel Ellington, a we-ll-kno-w'n baritone, sang a selection from a new opera, La Florencefl written by that great composer, Claire Dougherty. She is now composing an opera centering around a 'ballad that she had written in senior English class. We hailed a cab to go to the night club for- our promised party. The driver was a chap by the name of John Tinnickg quite an interesting and sociable fellow. But, alas! On our way, our driver saw a group of girls, Mary Bago, Betty Sweeney and Betty Moffet, who were in town to make a picture concerned with their pro- fession, nursing, walking up the street. As he turned to watch them, we ran into the back of a car containing some women officers, among them was a WAVIE captain, Betty Ford, a WAAC officer, Violet Fischer, and a Marine Commander, Ruth McCue. As those in the other car were quite badly shaken-up, we sent for an ambu- lance. When it arrived, it wasp driven by nurse Anna Duffy, with another nurse, Florence Robotin, and the famous surgeon, Basil Yurcisin. As we had sustained no serious injury, we continued to the club, the Hi-Hat, owned by Arnold Wilson and James P-ennacchi. They were featuring the Top Hatters band, the best band of the year, with their vocalist, La Verne Hulehan. The arrangements for the band were by Harold De La Roi, accordion solo by llildred Lambert. At a nearby table, we saw VV'illiam Gourovitch, the Hollywood gossip columnist. He came over to us, and mentionedl that they had just got a new editor, and was he a slave-driver! When asked who it was, he told us it was Edward Trainor. Bill said that he was sorry but he had to rush off to interview a group of secretaries in town, who were trying to put through new methods in office management. He- told' us some of them: Barbara Ben- net, Mary Bombelli, Eileen Jones, Catherine Clyde, Nancy Ciryan, Venona Lee and Clara Matlack. They had come to put their ideas- into a picture, the-reby advertising their improvements. After Bill had left, we admired the murals on the walls. Won- d-ering who had paintedl them, we called the head waiter, who turned out to be Matthew' Sparta. Matt said that Evelyn Pley had done the murals, and that she was, at present, working with Carl Frappolli, the advertising tycoon. Finally, we left the Hi-Hat and went to our hotel. Rising early the following morning, we decided to visit the school where the young actors and actresses were taught. At the office we met Sarah Griffith, the school secretary, who took us into see the superintendent, Douglas Anderson. He only had time to show us part of the school, so we attended the high school section. In modern home economic surroundings, the teacher, Ruth Eells, was happy and glad to see us. As we had little time, we- decided just to peek into the rooms. VVe saw Helen Papp as a shorthand teacher, George Hathazi as a mathematic instructor, Jennie Fidati as English teacher, Clayton Durham as history, and Lola Camp as physical education instructor for the girls. After we left the school, we went shopping. YVe stopped at a milliner's. to see what the latest was in hat styles. There we met the designers and proprietors, An- nette Othmer and Beatrice Berryann. We selected a. hat and left for a dress shoppe up the street. The salesladies, who had also designedl some dresses, were none other than lilable Johnson and Jean Lower. i301
