Owner Jimmy Campbell was so pleased with Kansas talent that he hired five other JC hoofers-Elaine Baresel, Barbara Stokes, Ruth Wiley, Anna Schoon- berner and Bob LaMont. Claudette Atkin- son succeeded in forcing Lena Horne into retirement with the aid of her manager, Roy Burns. Kenneth Pratt, Virgil Minor, and Dale Otnes opened a new chain of Olds garages in Alaska and placed Monk Price, George Wilson and George Vetsch as head mechanics. Lloyd Grimes won the Indianap- olis Speed Race in his jet-powered race car designed by Bill Wilson and manufactured by David Odle.

A., the JC trio attended one of Wayne Kiefer's fwealthy coffee plantation ownerl extravagant parties. His senorita fCarolyn Connettl imported such well-known comedians as Karen Trost and Jerry West to entertain. Back in the U. S. Thomas Holder became the lucky owner of the Kentucky Derby winner, whose jockey was Serafin Arrrias.
