CLASS Good afternoon, ladies and gentle- men! This is your sports commentator, Maurice Stirewalt, bringing you the year’s most outstanding annual event, The Cotton Bowl Game, Landis Yellow Jackets v.s. Notre Dame’s Fighting Irish. There are 150,000 spectators seated here in this beautiful, spacious stadium, donated to the school by the multimil- lionaire, John Alexander, who now has a sore finger from punching tip boards! Ah now! handed me by Frank Wilhelm, my as- Here’s the line-up just sistant. This promises to be one of the most exciting games ever played in his- tory of this famous bowl. Coach Arnold Yates’ charges are a slight underdogs, even Notre Dame though his assistant, Philip Bostian, has been scouting Coach Gene Butts Landis team the past few games. All you radio listeners and television fans will be interested to know that this is the gala ‘Homecoming Game”, hon- oring the alumni of 1950-1951. Among these guests, we see such notable stage and screen stars as Harold Christopher, Cooke, Dorothy Towell, and last, but not least, Catherine Douglas Doris Long, Allman, who is now starring in ‘The Big Mouth.”’ There seems to be quite a com- motion in the Northwest stands! Don’t be alarmed! Just that daffy comedian Lawson Kluttz, entertaining his fans. PROPHECY We also have with us today some of the world’s great beauties. There’s Janie Drye and Frankie Shinn, two of Clayton Steele’s gorgeous models from New York. Steele is also a hell-driver on the side. | might also add that these two lovelies are wearing some of the original fashions that won first prize in Paris, designed by Faye Cavin, Doris Bost, and Jettie Leazer, the world’s tops in dress designers. New York State Teachers College is well represented here today. There’s Phyllis Roseman, Nancy Wright, Nita Clodfelter, Mildred Goodman, Nancy Goodman, Mary J. Clark, Lois Miller, Betty Litaker, and Johnsie Weaver look- ing very intellectual and bored! Well, well, look up at the end of the field. There comes the Landis Hi Band. And look at those majorettes go. Direc- tor Bobby Cavin certainly has made a name for his band. They've really come out these past few years. | believe they're going to play for us now. No— there goes Director Cavin over to chat with his lovely wife, the former Miss Thelma Karriker. They’ve been quite busy this week-end, with all the conven- tions in town. This certainly is convention season around here. Let's see— over in the West end of the stadium is a crowd of the ‘Textile Engineers of the World.” Among them are Jerry Fields, J. T. Good-

They also predict a shortage of Swiss Cheese. It’s almost game time now as we see the long white ambulances take their places in the usual position. There are the petite and capabl e nurses—. Do my eyes deceive me? Nol! Goodnight, It’s Carolyn and Frieda Sloan. With PROPHECY 20 nurses like those, no wonder so many of the lads get hurt. And look who the ambulance drivers are—Allyn Sloop and Audy Bostian. We interrupt this broadcast to bring you a short news flash: An overcrowded bus, driven by James Clark, carrying — ‘“’Rebiuth Little Record’s’’ employees, and a shipment of her latest record releases, crashed into Lewis Vernon’s Gambling Casino, injuring play-boy Worth Efird. Pressley Beaver, Dean of Cow College, and many other passengers on the bus suffered serious injuries. Peggy Beaver, owner of the beauti- ful Beaver Colisium, has just announced that the game between the two all-Amer- ican Basketball teams owned by Joan Eller and Nathalane Murphy will not be played because the entire Eller team is in the hospital being treated for poison- ing which was received from food eaten in Barbara Fain’s restaurant.

Now back to the ball game. What's this? informing me due to lack of time we | have just been handed a notice will not be able to broadcast this Cotton Bowl Game this year. Tune in next year, same time same station to another thrill- ing game.
