Q Bob Miller finally learned how to pitch a curve. Yes sir, straight up and down. He also has learned to pitch a fast ball. He stands two feet from home plate. Pratt says he can't . A see them coming, he just holds out his glove and the ball whizzes right in. So if you K . I5 want to learn how to play baseball just tune in to WOC-TV Channel 5, at Z p. m. on 'W Saturdays. If you don't learn how to play baseball don't blame them. After all just look It I I at them and then think. fl There s Wanda Gresham, let's see what she's done for herself. She seems to k x . have quite a career in singing, TV and everyday occurrence, even appears regular- I ' ly at the Metropolitan Opera. But I hear she is getting quite an honor, it's not to ai f Q Al be published yet but I guess Ican tell you. She's going to Mars in several . A5 months for a special musical. I also hear she is still playing a little clarinet a- long with her singing. 5 , L Since she's quite wealthy she has quite a collection of atomic cars. She has the 7 XE latest model out. All you have to do is get in, push a button and you don't even have to steer I it, and when you want to stop just push another button. Although she can't drive much at night ready lighted. -4' f Who ever thought 30 years ago that Bill Atteberry would fill his life ambition? We Q heard that Bill is hiding around in an atomic powered police car with a television set in both the 0 : front and back seat. Bill has become the chief of police in what used to be the small town ' of Armington. It now has a population of 100, 000 since 1960. This is because of the 5 Atomic Energy Plant out near the suburb of Zimmerville. Bill says he controls 300 ' men, but now he has gotten rid of one of his tasks. That's Gitana, because he doesn't have to look after her as his dad did. 'TT Who's that over there? He looks quite important. Why it's Wayne Dickson. Wonder what he's been doing. A farmer, you might guess as much. Ihear farming is quite a snap these days, just about all automatic. He's made quite a success of himself. He owns a very large farm. Since it's practically all done by machine he got himself into an awful mess the other 0 Q day. The whole process is to be done in one day. That is you set these machines and they run by themselves So you se-nd one to plow, one to harrow, one to mark rows and plant seeds. So Wayne sent the one 0 I 1 .V i with it yet because it doesn't have lights and she has to keep on the speedways that are al- ,J 5 ' N if f - Y 1 'i I that harrows first, then the one that plants second, and the one that plows last. Boy, did 0 he ever have a mess. Q '1 l He also has a small dance band. I hear it is going places. I wouldn't want to say ' d where the places were! - 9 ,Q Later in the afternoon we are to have an art demonstration by Eleanor yg -L ,N Brennemenn. With this fast age the art is really quite fantastic, as it features a future C x in age much more miraculous than the atomic age of today. She has also gained fame as a sg ? fl writer. Her writings featuring for the most part her feelings which are calm and cool il' ,if during this fast age. Eleanor has finally broken into the ranks and the men have admitted ' she has far more creative talent. V Another one of her jobs is sports editor of the Armington Helper. This is quite some 1 job as the Mustangs went to state in basketball this last season. They also have a wonder- 9 ful baseball team as they beat the St. Louis Cardinals the other day. in 1 They say Eleanor sure gets the news covered and sent back to the paper in a , Na hurry. I guess she has changed since high school days. X I A As we look at the graduates of 5Z we see someone whose I f ' ideas haven't been changed by the new atomic methods of farm- ing. Jr. Sinn still uses his faithful old John Deere, which we 6 0 . used to hear so much about. He claims modern methods are all bunk. He ai seems to be doing very well for himself so maybe he is right after all about 1 6 . this atomic age. v 1 , Q fini, i' in .. ' P Z l , f A! 5
