CiaU Pnofdtec4f Television Announcer (Andy Uuran): Attention, folks. As today is the tenth anniversary of the '49ers, Television Station IGNACIO will give a special program showing what each and every one of the members of the class of '49 is doing. This program will feature each in action in his or her own profession. First we switch to Cleveland. Jack Schalles is dressed in a baseball suit, les, he's playing ball for the Cleveland Indians. We see him in the batter's box as he prepares to bat with bases loaded. He hits the first pitched ball. It goes up, up, up and over the centerfield stands. Jack trots around the bases as the photographers take his picture. lie just made his 61st home run to break the record of 60. He just broke babe Huth’s record. Let us switch to a local scene. We see Gordon Pope working on his bookkeeping. He doesn’t want to hire a bookkeeper, and he has trouble keeping his records straight. Gordon is the owner of the biggest dude ranch in Colorado. While we’re in this area, let's go visit a farm. There’s a group of children playing in the yard, while Clarice Mackey is washing clothes. We now turn to the Ignacio High School at Ignacio, Colorado. We see Eloise Hallsted and Marybell Neil are school teachers. Marybell is teaching trigonometry and Eloise is teaching English. Let's switch to the Ignacio city limits. We hear two fellows quarrelling. Dick Scales and Dale Higgin are quarrelling over whose turn it is to wash dishes. They are bachelors and are living together. What’s this we see now? Ah, we see that Carl Phelps is visiting. Whom? Hetty Pope. She is living on a big cattle ranch in New Mexico with her husband. Let’s switch to the Pacific ocean. Look at that sailor. It's Paul Payne, and he’s scrubbing the deck of a battleship. We warned him about the sailor’s life but he wouldn’t believe us. Live and learn, Paul. Let’s go back to baseball in New York. Look at that fellow in the batter's box. Doesn’t he remind you of Delphine ’Casey' Herrera? It's Delphine, and he’s playing ball for the Yankees. You just saw the mighty Casey strike out. While we’re in New York, we'll see a circus. There are elephants and other things in the ring, including Cordy Martinez. Look, Cordy is featured as ‘The World’s Smallest Giant.’ What’s this going on in Greeley? Mamie Mackey, the brilliant woman politician, is campaigning for the first woman senatorship of Colorado. In Durango, Ramona Herrera, the girl whose pet peeve in high school was sad songs is now a radio star---singing 'A Hatful of Tears’ over K I D P. What’s that pilot doing at Peterson lield? He must be trying to kill himself. No, it’s Mary Enriquez. She’s a test pilot for the Hoeing Company, and she’s flying the world’s first atomic powered plane. And last we switch to Chicago to see what R. II. Scott is doing. Why! He’s the ace photographer for Esquire magazine. He’s taking pictures of all those pretty girls at the Studio. That was the last Senior. Now Station I G.N A C 1,0 takes you back to your regular television programs. Ihank you. This is Andy Duran signing off. by Andy Duran
