As I look on the Captain and first-mate of the Titanic, Eric Webster and Carroll Quisenberry, I see Carroll giving Eric the latest iceberg report. It seems that all the icebergs have gone south for the win- ter. Are they in for a big surprise. In front of the White House I see a band of women led by Nellie Goad, Brenda Morris, and Jeane Richards campaigning for Woman suffrage. I am now tuning in to perhaps the greatest airplane race of all times. It is between Mike Charles Lindberg Taylor and Judy Amelia Earhart Robbins. Of course, all of us know who will win. Now I see two of the greatest silent movie actresses, Ann May West Tomes and Linda Greta Garbo Montgomery. They are having lunch together, hashing over old times. No wonder they were silent movie stars, you should hear their voices. In the ring l next find David Cassius Clay Johnson and Tommy :'Sonny Liston Doyle. It is the night of the championship bout. Everyone knows that'Liston will never be beaten. I now see two men in space. They are Gary Alan Sheppard Simpson and Fred John Glenn Chancellor. With astronauts like this, how can our space program go wrong? Last but not least, I arrive in the time of Carman, Grandma Moses Delarnette. She seems to be celebrating her 101st birthday. Boy, was that a cake and a half! In my final report, I shall unfortunately have to say that my old classmates did an unsatisfactory job of being heroes, but after all, they're only human, I think. Sincerely , Danny Brown

By oscillating the time dial still further, I have now focused on Robert James Madison Montgom- ery and his wife, Cheryl Dolly Madison Ashworth planning if surprise dinner party for some British guests. The high- light of the evening will be an enormous bonfire of the Capitol. It tumed out to be a Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight. The next specimens are Judy Kreisle and Jane Keown who were placed in the Gold Rush. They seemed to be having a little trouble with the men folk. While being chased by a pack of wolves they stumbled over the biggest gold field in California. Next, I tune in on the Civil War and find Confederate General Kenny Robert E. Lee Roberts sur- rendering his sword to the Union General, Mike Ulysses Grant Young as a lovely southern belle, Har- riette Barrs, draws up the terms of surrender. Coming into view, we see General Tommy George Custer Keown and his Captain, Joe Eubanks, planning a victory celebration after his raid on Chief Rodney Sitting Bull Chaffin. Little does he know Chief Chaffin is planning a victory party of his own. But due to unforeseen circumstances, 50 to 1 odds, Custer was unable to attend. I next see two women who became famous authors, Saundra Harriet Beecher Stowe Snyder, and Judy Louisa May Alcott Potts. Mrs. Snyder did not know that there would be so much controversy over her book, Unc1e Tom 's Cabin. Miss Potts gained great fame by writing several chi1dren's books. Next, I find Sandy Alexander Graham Be1l Grant, discoverer of the telephone, as she talks to her assistant, Krista Mayfield. I would stop to interview them, but you know women. Their conversation could go on for hours. Nancy Madam Curie Chaffin and her husband, Danny Pierre Tongate, are my next stop. I see them experimenting with the new element, radium. Their discovery of this element brought about a whole new way of war. Now I see the two famous Wright sisters, Shirley Cart wright and Sarah Snyder Wright. Their discovery of the airplane not only revolutionized the transportation industries, but now we don't have to wait six months to get our morning paper.
