r i PROPHECY Dear Shirley, Hollywood, California Way 17, 1970 As (■•lay has rolled around again my mind roama to old Hoyt High and how we were all so eager to be out on our own. I have Just gotten back from a months vacation. My M.O.M. studios sure hated to miss that month on my ne« cowboy picture Jolting Mac . While on my trip I ran across Harold Kolbek up In the Arizona Mountains raising goats. As a sideline Harold charms rattle snakes with his old base horn. One evening when I stopped off at the Waldorf Astoria I was startled beyond words to find Clyde Connor, in person, with his now world famous baritone voice singing In an all-girl orchestra. With all the New York girls swooning over him I could hardly believe him when he told me he hadn't found the right one yet. Was I ever surprised to see Charles Mainline up at Niagara Falls honey- mooning with a beautiful blond. It seems as tho tills Is his third honey- moon at Niagara. He Just can't settle down, he likes a variety ever so often. On ray way back through Kansas I came very near to getting lost In Hoyt. When I stopped In the suburbs to ask for directions out of town. I found I was in the famous Russell and Williams car factory. They are producing a new make Studsons which they can run out at about five per minute. I wanted very much to visit you too, but I figured as I had only a month and you live way up in Alaska I Just couldn't make it. I expect with your nine ohlldren and one igloo you haven't much room to entertain company anyway. llarry MoKeever
