There doesn't seem to be anything left on this page but the stock market prices, so I will turn to the amusement section. Ah, here's an interesting bit of news. It seems that Don Leech has been offered 580,000 to make a new picture for Twenty-First Century Fox Hound Studios. I never dreamed when Doodlebug was voted the handsomest boy in school he would end up as a great screen lover. It looks like Bill McNutt, the fabulous movie house magnet, has bought a new string of theaters and I see that the next picture coming to one of Mr. McNutt's theaters is For Whom the Bulls Toil, the story of the life and loves of an F. B. I. man, co-starring Don Leech, Ann Turner and joan Moses. According to an ad there is going to be a concert tonight at the Shraddler Hall with Baxter Morrison at the piano and the following opera stars performing: John Thomas, Lily Pons and Betty McNutt. Here's an interesting article. It seems that Jane Hickman and Betty Mohler at last, after a ten-year struggle, have been admitted as the first women as V. M. I. Cadets. And now letis see what the sports page has to offer. Up at the top of the page the headlines read as follows: The Captain John Smith,s Women,s Profes- sional Basketball Team fought their way to a 158 to 67 victory last night against the Pink Breeze Team. It goes on to say that the Captain John Team was sparked by the brilliant performance of Catherine Dribble,, Sensabaugh with the able coaching of Colleen Zollman. Here is an interesting article and I quote, Passin' Pooley Hubert and Tackles Fred Swisher and Leon McKemy have been offered 550,000 per annum to play for the San Diego Rams. I expect they will wait for more money. Such talent shouldn't be wasted for a measely 85o,ooo. Well, that's about all of interest in this paper, so I guess I'll go over to play a few hands of poker with my associate in the oil business, Mr. C. J. Johnson, just small stakes, you know, S50 a chip. -BUDDY BRAY -tl 15 ig..

as 7 -J V, W :ss- f 1 4: 4 ' it Looking Forward lVell, here it is 1960 and, as I sit here in my easy chair enjoying a good pipe and a warm fire, I glance about me at my lovely home, wife and three children and I wonder what has become of all those fine characters who graduated from old L. H. S. in 1949. I pick up the evening paper and glance casually at the headlines where I see the following words in thick, black letters, Famous Physicist, Dr. James Ifads given Nobel Prize. Of course this shocks me greatly for I knew ,lim Eads when he was flunking chemistry, but I soon get over the shock and read on down the page. At the bottom I see where Congresswoman Annie Lawhorn has gone to Lower Slabvania to study the social status. Annie always was more or less a politician. Over in the left-hand corner of the page is an article which I am sure will interest you all. It says, and I quote, 'I 'Taterl Wfilhelm elected best bartender in the city. 'gSpudl' always was pretty handy with that kind of work. Well, I seem to have exhausted the front page, so I will turn the page. lVIy eyes are dazzled with a full-page advertisement for Cummings and hflorrisonls Furs of Distinction, lflumm-maybe if I go down and see those old Ubuddiesl' of mine I can get a cut rate. lNIy, herc's something interesting, right down here near the obituary column. lt seems that lVIr. Charles lXIcClung, the famous mortician, is advertising a new line of plexiglass collins. These should make a big hit. I see where that noted French professor at Falling Springs, the former Scott Iluger, has written a new, startling expose on lXfIy Six Years in First-Year French. eil 1+ iii?
