we witnessed the arrival of several celebrities. Norma Merrick, world famous novelist was traveling with the former Susie Konsler and her four sons who were well known as a quartet that appeared nightly on T.V. On arriving in Washington, we were taken directly to the F.B.I. building where Elizabeth Skaggs showed us arormd the enormous building. After the tour we went to the office of the Director of the F.B.I. where secretary Joyce Sharp told the man in charge, Mr. Clyde Wil- liams of our arrival. He announced that his entire fa- cilities were at our disposal and we took advantage of them. In the missing persons department Mary Blanford, Phyllis Marshall and Fay Wallace took the description of our lost friend and put out an APB on him. While waiting for the results of the broadcast we de- cided to see a little of the Capital. We made reser- vations for the opera which was playing at the Old Ford Theatre and arrived soon after the first curtain went up. Pianist Martha Sue Shelton played a variation of pieces and was joined on the stage by Mezzo soprano Carol Frey and Coloratura Libby Clay. In the lobby at intermission we met Olympic water skiing champion Robert Stanly and his wife, the former Barbara McIntyre. As we re- turned after intermission we found our seats occupied by Glenda Alexander and Carolyn Odom. On the stage the players of the first act had been joined by Dorothy Os- borne and Anita Gish who completed the cast. As we rushed to beat the crowd after the end of the performance, we heard the news that James QMighty Mousej Meadows had won the heavyweight championship of the world.' As we rode back to our hotel in one of the new Con- vertible Cabs ovvned by Ann Tyson, we passed the re- nowned Nancy Howard restaurant and the newest school in the U.S. which was founded by multi-millionaire Albert Pruitt and his wife Maralee Cox Pruitt. On Penn- sylvania Avenue all traffic was stopped by a parade honoring the most recently appointed members of Pres- ident Byron Hal1's cabinet, Eleanor Powell and Linda Baskett. As the last float faded from view, Policewomen Travis Epley and June Bolton motioned the traffic to be- gin again. The next morning we reported back to the F.B.I. Building to see what had happened on the APB. So far nothing had been uncovered. Communications director Dorothy Phillips promised to call us the minute any- thing turned up. I0 As soon as we got back to the hotel our phone rang. The APB had turned up our first lead. A man answering the description of the classmate had been seen in a re- mote area of Louisville, Kentucky. We then decided to talk to Louisville authorities and have them make an in- vestigation of people answering the description of our man. George Abernathy, President of the University of Louisville, had his secretary, Glenda Liles, look through the records of Henderson students, and a second lead was uncovered. Deciding that the trail was becoming narrower, we flew immediately to Louisville and were met by a staff of workers who were placed under our direction. Shirley Bourland, Carol Critser, Ronald Sandefur, Benjamin Po- sey, and Wilma Watson, with their years of scientific research went immediately to work. They were accom- panied by the private detectives Clinton Todd and Bill Pruitt with their secretary Shirley Cobb. They told us to contact several teachers at the University. As we got our luggage from baggage clerk Margie Sigler, our taxi arrived. At the University we talked to several teachers who had taught our missing person and from them we learned about his character and background. Lenora Houtchen, physics teacher, and Professor James Wilkie, head of the che mistry department, had seen and talked to our man about two months before when he had come back to the school to obtain some chemicals. ln the chemistry lab technicians Bobbie Rednour, Beverly Vick Stone, and Linda Hurt were able to give us the address we were seeking. When we arrived at the address we found it to be a huge old ghostly looking house. In the dim light of the hall we fotuid the room number of our man, a.nd slowly began climbing the five flights of steps to his room. Outside the door we paused for a moment, then I knocked A muddled voice invited us in and we saw our man poring over test tubes. We explained our mission to him and he apologized for being so difficult to find. For twenty years he had been working on an invention and at last it was ready. Dr. Petie Bryant's Supersonic Mouse- trap would go on the market immediately. We took Dr. Bryant back to San Francisco and arrived just on time for the reunion. He went happily about, smiling, shaking hands, and handing out mousetraps. THIS IS THE YEAR 1977. - - - YOU ARE THERE!!! !!
