Page 16 CL SS PRUPHECY As I walk down the beautiful streets of Geneva, whose population has grown to 20 million in the last 10 years, whom should I see but Darrell Burgess, the famous movie star. Hi Darrell, where are all the girls who pursue you so intently? Oh! I finally gave them the slip when I came out of Nevil's Blue Room. Did you know that it was owned by Gerald and Geraldine Nevil, our old school chums'? Yes, and did you hear Helen Morningstar, their beautiful, exotic entertainer, and Laura Billington, that glamorous song bird. Let's go over to Bernadine's Emporium and have a piece of Dwight Dailey's special triple crab apple pie. He has become famous all over the world for itg Bernadine Brunner bought the patent on the recipe. She's made millions on her chain of drugstoresf' Say, Herb, there's Kate Veach. Hasn't her figure brought her fame? She's just been voted Miss America of l95l. HLook, Darrell, there's Mrs. Roscoe Purdy, the former Evelyn Snow, buying her six little redheads tickets for the Mathys' circus that is coming to town next week. Raymon Mathys has just returned from doing a command performance for the Queen of England. He has just signed Jo Nelson as fat lady. Jo outweighed her opponent by 31!4 ounces. Another act signed lately is a troupe of trapeze artists, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Farlow and their famous four-year old son Bruce, Jr. Mrs. Farlow is the former Gloria Lybargerf' t'Hello boys. Remember me? Well, If it isn't Dorothy tFarlowJ Amstutz. I heard you play at Carnegie Hall. That new symphony you wrote is enchanting. Thank you boys. Next week, Bob Meyer, King of the Limberlost, is going to play some orchestral numbers from a composition written by Allen Zurcher, the famous composer. Bye, Bye boys. t'Bye Dorothy. 'Whadda ya know Herb? I took Darrell Jr. to school the other day and as I walked up the steps I met Roger Coon, the Dean of Geneva Judge Haines High School. The school was named for Lee because he financed the three billion dollar project. Those boys sure have become wealthy, haven't they? I should say so, Darrell, but that poor Tom Weaver never gets a break. He invested all his money in Texas oil wells and thought it would pay off. They thought they had struck a rich vein, and they did-a rich Vein of water. 'tMy that is too bad, Herb, but Tom's a go-getter. He won't stay down long. Say, how's your wife, Herb? 'tOh! she's okay. She went down to Rita's Cciffure Salon to get her hair dressed. I surely wished Rita had never opened the place, cause Harlene goes down every week to get the latest gossip and awful hair do's. She came home last week with a tale about Darlene Moser's husband being commissioned a five star General in the Air Force. Some say they will soon be living in the White House, but I don't know cause Secretary of State, Don Call, has his eye on that position, too. Well, I had better go now and pick up the boss at Ritz-1's. So long, Darrell, and keep away from those husband hunting glamour gals. O, K, Herb, l'll see you in the funny papers. I always read 'Herb's Family'.
