What will he behold? Will he bring us happiness And fortunes untold? Q! 7 When Father Time catches up C L A S S Or should we foretell that In the future we shall see A life in store for us That is not meant to be? Many years have come and gone Since we have been in school. Now we know what Mr. Dorsey meant When he said that life was cruel. Variety is the spice of life, As we can plainly see. Jeannette Trottier is studying The great men of the sea. Butler Smith is also A lover of the blue. 'Cause he is out there fishing For a mermaid who'll be true. When we sail across the sea A Paris designer there will be. He has a shop in a little harbor And his name is Bobby Barber. On a trip to the opera You can feast your eyes On a second Caruso About the same size. He can really create a spell. Who is the man? Frank Dauteuil. Doris Pion is at his side, A ballerina . . . Grafton's pride. Starting our tour of show business Around the corner we go. There we meet Ricky Morris Replacing Sid Stone on Texaco. Dagmar was quite a sensation, But she is no moreg For Babs Johnson is drawing the crowd And thrilling men galore. From the French Riveria to America Marilyn Heselton can be found Dancing the Charleston, For which she is renowned. Behind the scenes of the T. V. show Can be heard a thundering crash. Red Anderson is the cause of this, But now he's getting cash. The sounding bugle, flash of silk! They're off at Lincoln Downs. Polly Huchowski, the booky Takes bets on blacks and browns. Children are a bundle of joy, But sometimes they are not. Mutt Mathurin has found that Nursery teaching is not so hot! Another enrapt in little things And the head of a popular nursery, Is Pauline Brown, proud as can be, Of her little tree nursery. Also interested in Mother Nature Is the heir to Prout the Florist. Eddie French and his wife June Sell flowers to every tourist. Sleepy Lagoon is for John Magill And he's living to its standard. For now he's a mattress tester In the window at Lane and Mccandard Coming to the Farmer's Market You are startled by a voice. It is sweet Vivian Ambrose Selling vegetables crisp and moist! The feminine side of T. V. shows Are Lillian Strom and Dot Mack, Supporting each other on a trapeze. Of courage they do not lack. Living a somewhat plainer life Than that of the entertainer, Is Bev Johnson, pushing triplets, But she is no complainer! Another one with strings attached And by that we do mean apron- Is Ray Cadrin, a home-loving hubby, Peg Kennedy his careering matron.
