BILL BOARD The circus grounds were crowded and bright, As the people came in on the very first night. First in line was Mary Lou Schlosser, Followed by Schulthess, Lazenby, and Fisher. We were greeted by Worster, selling ducits for a yard . Who find that cake-cutting isn ' t very hard. Anna ' s juice joint stands inside the markee , Its location in front makes it easy to see. While waiting in line we see Anderson, the bug man , Selling his chameleons as fast as he can. Before us a tram act comes into view, Featuring Hill and Cook, a team that is new. Florence Travis gives Annie Oakleys to all she knows, And tells them to hurry to see the best of shows. Coming out of the keester is Brinkman, the gaffer . Followed by Lewis and Hays carrying some paper . Entering the big top we sighted in the blue , Hazeltine and Brandenburg sitting in their pew While next to them is seated Bond and Busz, Calmly enjoying popcorn and fuzz We spotted something looking just like a rabbit, But finally decided it was Lester Babbit, Along with lamison, Tuck, and Bowmar, Acclaimed for their clownability wide and afar. Turning our heads a little to the right, We see the windjammers coming in sight, At the head Marian Engle is still their leader, Followed by Jeanne Dills blowing tones even sweeter— 24

ADVERTISEMENT Than has ever been heard by us before, While Chub Van Fleit upholds the drum corps. Around the midway to the kidtops we go. In hopes that we won ' t miss any sideshow. We notice that Allman and Kelly at last, Are making Swamie Whirledge ' s Milt Joint fast, And Shanty Royer with his helper Fred Haffner, Is working hard amid all the laughter— Which from the fun house does loudly come, Where speeler Dick Smith is far from mum. Geek Seidel sitting by her big worm , Is really making that slimy thing squirm. So that Shipe, Waterbeck, and Panning, As thistle-chins think the show exciting. Ashenfelter the bag guy is selling his cherries , And helping direct everybody to Mary ' s . We follow the main stem to the tent, Where the animals are readied for the big event. Doris and June famed riders of rosin backs , Are followed by Bohls leading the bull , Max. Now come the cats with Ellis their trainer, Ahead of the convicts guided by Gerner. The gravediggers and old folks are next in line, Headed by Greenwalt, their tricks should be fine. Ringmaster Ross now appears on the scene, His features are sharp and his wit it is keen. So we ' ll leave you now and go right on in, The signal has sounded for the show to begin. 25
