Prophecy TEN YEARS LATER I-Iello there, everybody! This is your radio columnist, Lotsa Chatter, broadcasting from Station LSHS in the Daily Star news- paper building. As usual, I'm bringing you news about the people who make the news. Guess who I burnped into this morning! Nobody but Deloris Layton lnow Deloris Grandgenettj leading her pet poodle, Curly, on a leash. She has just returned from a vacation in France: you should see her beautiful tan. Dorty has made her home town proud of her by becoming a famous movie star. Certainly the sport of boxing should not be abolished for those who desire to make a living getting their brains scrambled. I dropped in at the hospital last Sunday to see Dwight Alton, one of Iowa's top boxers, whose latest bout had landed him-ecompletely K O'ed--in the laps of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Nuzum. QThe Nuzums were watching their old classmate perform while visiting in townl. Their home is in California, where Kenneth owns five thousand acres of land and Iris Knee Pippittl has the reputation of being a wonderful hostess. OI Just as Iwas leaving, Dwight's nurse entered the room. Smil- ing as usual, there stood Margaret O'Day, R. N. She informed me that she had left a big Chicago hospital to pursue her nursing career right here in Sioux. I wonder if her fiance will persuade her to have a June wedding? She must prefer the smell of disinfectant to the scent of orange blossoms. By the way, I dropped in at the art gallery last week to see the latest exhibits of the famous art protege, Willie Ruth Ramsey. Willie herself was there, and we got into quite an animated conversation. I discovered that the artist in question has two great aspirations: she is as much interested in home and family as she is in art, and she's simply sighing for a glimpse of her favorite painting, the Mona Lisa. Incidently, my favorite magazine arrived the other day, and on page eighteen was one of those Toni ads--featuring Gladys and Gladeth Ruffcorn, the current Toni twins. They're both happily married and possess large duplicate wardrobes which they use for their twin jobs. fIt's quite a coincidence that Gladeth has twin daughters--as does Gladysll 15
