-vu--..,....-.-..-..M - - 1 We now see a large building which appears ce be an animal hospital. Upon entering we see a demure little nurse--Letha Morse---swiftly gliding about helping the doctor diagnose a case of small pox which some elephants have contracted. Anyway, it's a gig job, Letha. Nex we see a ship far off somewhere on the Pacific Ocean. As it comes nearer we see a tall, dark, and handsome fellow scrubbing decks with the rest of the dubs. It could be Bob Gates ---- well, it is. He expects to be a Captain someday, but right now-look! We've reached one of the Hawaiian Islands. What'does that big sign over there say? WMade-Rites-lOd.W And the proprietor is none other than Forrest Elene MeKown. Well, I still like mine with onion, Mickey! The next scene is that of the make-up depart- ment of Twentieth--Century Fox Studios in Holly- wood, California. Shirley Temple,who is now making WSweet Sixteenn is being made up by Miss Pauline Walgren. Well, Polly, you made Hollywood, but not as an actress! Next we see awlarge mountain. Standing at the highest point is Harold llarroun. He is pointing to a.holelsix,feet in diameter, which he thinks goes to China. Oh Well! he'll learn, if he lives long enough. The next scene is that of a five and ten cent store. Behind a long counter we find Lucille Lingafelter, who seems to be gliding about very smoothly. Later we find that she is standing on a little car which runs on a track, and by pressing a button with her foot, she can move wherever she pleases. That saves the wear and tear on shoe leather. Now we are at a large circus. The announcer is introducing the most famous trapeze performer of the world ---- Miss Louise Robison ----- who will do a daring act 50 feet in mid-air without a net below. Well, Louise is certainly still sure of herself! The last scene takes place in a large library where Earl McDaniel is receiving awards for his novel,'WTo Marry and Still Love.N We never thought Earl's ardent love of literature and composing a- bility would lead to this! A Happy Future for Class of '57!
