As we entered we saw, the one and only Clam Cavin who we learned was “CHIEF COOK” and that the cafe was one of SBULPT(S CHAIN OF CAFES” After we had eaten the girls decided to visit the “SUNSHINE CURL SALOON” operated by Dorothy Sells, Betty Jean Scercy and Elsie McDuffie their specialty being the “NO-STINK PERMANENT WAVE”. After our visit with the girls we decided it was time to travel again and headed for St. Louis. On our way, as we came through Memphis we noticed a “BILLIARD HALL” called - “OUR FAVORITE HANGOUT” owned by Clarence Stewart and as we arrived in St. Louis we again noticed a huge sign saying “HOTEL ROSEMAN” and were welcomed as we entered by the owner and operator C. D. Roseman. While we were talking we inquired about entertainment and learned that the “WORLD FAIR” was in progress. The next day we arose early and started for the fair in time for the judg- ing of beautiful women which was done by Joe Corriher and Elmer Goodman. As we left the judges we bumped into Gary Miller who told us he was manag- ing the lights for the Fair. 21 When we went back to the hotel it was suggested that we listen to the radio and who did we hear taking the place of Jack Benny on C.B.S.? Our one and only Jack Goodnight starring on “THE PROGRAM FOR NETWITS”! We arose early the next morning and headed for Chicago and as we en- tered we bumped into Madge Roseman who was traveling around looking for the right man. Again we boarded our famous plane and headed for Jackson- ville to visit Lt. Rachel Correll who is stationed there as a Wave. Atlanta here we come was our next suggestion and we did go to find Nancy Mills owner and operator of a chain of stores called “MILL’S 3 and 9”. As we talked we learned she had as her very efficient helpers Fannie Deal and Col- leen Bebber. Homeward bound, as we drove down main street of Landis we saw Richard Carlisle still the Corriher Mills. wandering around Since Landis has one of the most modern schools of the South, we decided to visit it. As we entered we noticed that MR. McCREARY’S efficient secretary was Anna Catherine Linn and her main job was to keep records of all people who skipped classes. As we left the school building Jean crossed the street to resume her work at her “TYPING SCHOOL” and her slogan is: “DON’T PICK OUM “THE KEYS LYRE TL RIGHT”.

After leaving New York we visited Paris, France, where we found Curtis Helms leading his famous dance band, “THE SWING AND SWAY”, with Ruth Abernathy and Hoyt Rutledge as guest soloist. They were starring at the “PROP UP THEATRE”. Having three girls on this tour who liked perfume, especially from Paris, we visited the nearby Perfume Factory which was owned and operated by Le- vonda Jordon and Barbara McDaniels. As we talked, we learned their favorite “DRAG THEM BACK ALIVE” which we decided to buy. was During our tour of Switzerland we at- tended an ice festival where we found our old roller skating friends Helen Stewart, Lucretia Corriher, and Betty Jo Hill who have become famous ice skaters. Now as we headed for Germany where we visited the Army base at Nurenburg, we find Peggy Eller who is now an army stationed with her husband General Bill Goodnight. Now that it was time to leave we debated on how to travel. It was finally decided to travel by plane. nurse After we were on the plane and we thought we were comfortable, we were suddenly stunned to find ourselves rid- ing upside down and as we got to normal hostess Doris we learned from our 20 Wilkinson that our daring young pilot was Hugh Parks. We were finally back in the good old U.S. but not through with our journey and with our visit to all our classmates, so our next stop was to visit Martha Kimball’s “INTERIOR DECORATING SCHOOL” here in San Francisco. From San Francisco we headed for Hollywood where we find at the M. G. M. Studio, Hilda Huffman and Ray Von Yow taking the place of Betty Hutton and “Red” Skelton. On with our journey to Seattle, Wash- ington where we noticed a huge theatre called “MAD AND GLAD HOUSE” as we entered to look it over we saw none other than Kenneth Sloop who is the owner and operator. Another discussion on how to travel came up and we decided to go by bus and we got aboard to find as our driver, Vivian Sechler and after talking to her for awhile we learned that the owner of the “ONE ACCIDENT BUS COM- PANY” was the one and only Homer Brown who had for his motto “BOARD AT YOUR OWN RISK”. As we arrived in Salt Lake City, Murphy decided to stop in and see that her “ALL STAR BASKETBALL TEAM” was sticking to their motto: “PLAY FOR US TO WIN AND THEM TO LOSE”.
