Tlx Coqpltollon the president of the American Federation of Woman's Clubs, Miss Nancy Gillham. She is escorted by the celebrated chemist and scientist, Herbert Jackson. You know, folks, I used to know him when they called him Sally, Yes, sir! And he used to mess around in chemistry class and mix wild things together and look what he turned into. Don't get discouraged, children, there's still hope for you. Look! Oh, folks, look! The fleet's in. Here comes Rear-Admiral Henry Craig. He certainly looks spiffy in that uniform too. And I do believe that's John Duvall and Edna Brown with him. Of course you know Johnny is the basket-ball coach at the lfni- versity of Southern California. Miss Brown teaches at the University too, and I believe she and Johnny are quite that way about each other. They are a lovely couple. Miss Brown is wearing yellow taffeta and orchids. Imagine. How many of yo11 have seen orchids? I wish you were here. I never saw such a crowd and so many lights and wait-oh --here comes a famous couple, Miss Judith Lawson and Mr. James Miller. They are both touring the west coast with the Metropolitan Opera Company. Miss Lawson is their prima donna and Mr. Miller, the orchestra leader. Miss Lawson is wearing peach-colored satin with turquoise jewelry. A very striking looking costume Miss Lawson, won't you say just a word to our unseen audience? No? I'm sorry, folks, she wouldn't do it. I hope you're-oh-look who's coming now. It's none other than that famous comedy team, Banta and Lea, and the two lovely ladies are Miss Eleanor Brown, cele- brated protrait painter, and Miss Inez Lyon, short-story writer. Miss Brown is wearing a gown of ice-blue satin and diamonds that suit her blonde type of beauty particularly Well and Miss Lyon is in black. She has on a shoulder bouquet of gardenias. Aha-the Lea part of the comedy team seems to be making money, anyway. How about it Warren? Eleanor and Vic used to be quite chummy and I see they still are, although I hear Eleanor is engaged to Paul Sorg. And now, ladies and gentlemen, here comes the Democratic Presidential Candidate, Thomas R. Byrley, and his secretary, Miss Margaret Clements. I'm sure Mr. Bryley will say something to you. No? I-Ie says tonight he's taking a holiday from public speaking. My, how he has changed. His opponent, Miss Ruth Goins, was unable to be here tonight, or I'm sure she would have had something to say to you. lVe wonder who'll be in the White House next year. Look! Here comes a popular young lady, Miss Jean Morse. She has two escorts, Stewart Morris, famous inventor, and Carl Moore, editor of the Hollywood Highlights. Oh, folks, how I long for television!!! Here comes the most beautiful and necessary girl in Hollywood, Miss Mary Eliza- beth Brandis, who arranges the attractive coiffures of the film colony. She is dressed in a clinging gown of white satin with a rhinestone bodice. Her escort is an up-and-coming young mining engineer, Cecil Campbell. Page eighty-three

Th Capilolian Senior Class Prophecy Good evening-ladies and gentlemen of the radio audience. I am here tonight to tell you about the gala event of the season-the premiere showing of Now and Then - starring the famous Miss Katy Updyke, supported by Robert NVood, the star that turns all the ladies' hearts upside down. It's a great picture so I hear, and there are a lot of great people coming. They are arriving now. Here comes the beautiful Miss Updike herself. Shes wearing a perfectly divine creation of white velvet and an enormous shoulder bouqet of gardenias. Someone is mighty attentive. Oh-here comes the famous director and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. R. T. Johnson. Mrs Johnson was, as you all know, the lovely and attractive debutante, Jeanne Parrent. They have just returned from their honeymoon and they certainly look happy. They have rather a large party with them, including Miss Sarah Bacon, the famous designer, who is by the wa.y wearing one of her own creations of ice-green satin encrusted with rhinestones. She is escorted by the beloved evangelist, the Reverend Frank Rogers. Ed- ward Bell, famous big game hunter and explorer who has just returned from Africa, is with the Johnson party also. We hear he brought back some very valuable trophies and has proved himself quite a hunter. Darsie Brady, our favorite radio blues singer, has quite captured him, however. Nice work, Darsie. Keep him tame. And here comes Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Sutterlin, owners of this beautiful theatre. Mrs. Sutterlin was Miss Gladys Campbell, tiny and attractive actress before her mar- riage. She is wearing black velvet and an ermine Wrap and is quite a vision of loveliness. Ah-here comes the mayor of this beautiful city, the Honorable Raymond Jesse, and who's that with him? Why it's Miss Dorothy McChesney, missionary to China. We hear that Miss McChesney narrowly escaped death in a recent earthquake. Some people have all the thrills. Pardon me a moment-your Honor, won't you say just a word to our radio audience. No? Please do. No? I'm awfully sorry folks but he just wouldn't say a word. He's terribly bashful. Too bad. I hoped he would speak to you. Look! Here comes Senator Frank Dailey with a petite brunette on his arm. Why, folks, she's Polly Armstrong, the Story-Time Lady. I'm sure you've all heard her and her bedtime stories over the National Broadcasting hook-up. Miss Armstrong is wearing a gown of crimson velvet. Here comes someone we all know, Chester Watson, the man who put Rudy Vallee out of business, and who's that with him? It's Miss Edith Darnell, one of this season's loveliest debutantes. She is wearing the matched pearls that Prince Gigalo presented her on her last sojourn in Rome. They certainly are beautiful. Folks, I just wish you could be here tonight. I wish you could see all the lights and the beautiful women and lovely gowns and the crowds gathered to try and catch a glimpse of their favorite celebrity. O'h, I wish you were all here! Wait! Here comes Page eighty-two

Ladies and gentlemen, I am for the first time looking at a real honest to goodness Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Ralph Reeves.

She is looking very lovely in black satin and pearls. Here comes a couple I didn't know about. That splendid criminal lawyer, Floyd Cammack, and Miss Mary Trumbo, lovely heiress to the Trumbo millions. Do you all hear the shouting?

Um-here comes an attractive couple, Miss Florence Fort, dietician of note, and Mr. J. R. Darlington, who is rumored to be much richer than Henry Ford and John D. Rockefeller put together. Miss Fort has on a lovely shoulder bouquet of orchids and gardeniasg so Dame Rumor must be right for a change. We are very sorry that Miss Mary Elliott, physician of note, is unable to be here tonight but she has just telegraphed her regrets. Here comes a famous couple, Miss Mary George Mitchell, who draws those most at- tractive covers for the current magazines, and Lieutenant Albert Luscher, who has just returned from a trip to the north pole.
