She told us that there was nothing difficult about her job, and since there weren't anymore honors for her to win she really didn't know just what she would do. we wished her luck and hurried on. In Chicago, we went to church on Sunday. We kept looking over the min- ister. He certainly looked familiar. When he ascended to the pulpit we suddenly recognized him.

We went to the head nursels office to ask if we could look the hospital over. Behind the desk we could hardly see Marilyn Batz. She told us that her husband and she were joint owners of the hospital.

He also said that it was qulge 1 through Iowa City we had a slight accident and a few band interesting work, especially the lab technicians. By the way, he had marr e a lab technician. We congratulated him and wished him much happiness and were on our way again. Once more we were back in Lytton. There was only one classmate we hadn't seen yet. We finally found her as a kindergarten teacher in Lytton grade school. Strangely enough Janice Longman hadn't married yet.

The next day we landed in New York. During our show a bundle of dia- monds and furs asked us to lunch at her pentlouse after wards. We asked her name and address. She said she was the fnrmer Wilma Jones. No! We had hardly recognized her. She told us that after graduating from Commercial Extension at Omaha, she went to New York and found a job with a Wall Street broker. She got so tired of handling such large numbers that she married him. New she was living in a luxurious penthouse and that the she owned five cadillacs Cof different colors! and a few helicopters and a rocket ship. for trips to Mars. We boarded a rocket ship to Mars to complete our engagements there. The next day we met Goldie Gress. She told us she had married the president of the Interplanatary Telephone Companyl She told us that these interplana- tary telephone systems were much more complicated to operate than the old- fashioned earth ones. She took us to a little place on the WMilky Way of Marsn for something to eat. Through the smoke and the haze of the little walk-down restu rant we noticed the piano player. Could it be? But it must bel We waked over to see, and yes, it was Gloria Denise. Naturally, we wondered what on earth she was doing in a place like this! We had always thought that she would work with children. Or weren't there children on Mars? She told us that she had just taken this job to study the parents of the little monsters which she worked with during the daytime. She said that studying the parents helped her understand a child's development more. The next afternoon we went to a basketball game in the Mars Round Garden. The WMars Barsn were playing the Wlnterplanatary Rocketsn. On the program we were quite surprised to see Dale Scharn's name. We watched his spectacular playing and the Wlnterplanatary Rocketsw won due to his able and professional playing. We wanted to talk to him, but we only had time to congratulate him on his way to the lockers qfter the game. Once again we were on earth. This time we were in Hollywood, California. Here we met Kenny Staton, the owner of a night club, 'Kenny's Placew. He in- vited us to attend a show upstairs that night. He told us that this really was a good way to get rich fast, especially when you had such attractions as lar- ilyn Monroe. We watched the show when who to our Wwondering eyes did appear' but Eleanor Waggett as chief can-can dancer of all can-can dancers. We wanted to talk to her, but she was so busy after the show that we got most of our information from Kenny. He told us that of course she did other kinds of danc- ing, but was most famous for this. Also, she wasn't married yet, but she had had so many proposals from kings, dukes, movie actors, and other Wbig wheelsn that she was having a hard time deciding. Since we couldn't see Eleanor, Kenny asked us if we might like to see the bouncer. Heavens! We wondered, we hadn't done anything offending had we? He left and came back with the bouncer. It was Dale Hutchinson. Dale was disappointed because he had hoped it would be someone to bounce. He todd us it was quite boring tonight. He said that Kenny paid him by the number of rowdy customers he threw out every night. He liked his job, but he had one complaint. He had broken seven pairs of glasses in two weeks while he had been working on the job! Again we were on our way, this time .to Monte Carlo. We Passed by a Samb- ling house and having a few extra dollars, we decided to try our luck, We noticed a big fellow at one card table seeming to be winning quite a lot, judging from the pile of chips in front of him. To our surprise it was none other than Don Bartels engaged in a game of pitch. Don said his experience in this field in his high school days was really paying off for him. We decided that there was too much competition for us and left. Our next stop was Butte, Montana. In the town, all over we saw signs say- ing, UEat at Yeazel'sW, 'Buy your clothes at the Yeazel shop', or 'Yeazel Thea- tren, and others. Finally, we located Mr. Yeazel to learn the secret of his success. He turned out to be our old classmate, Jerry. He said that really there just wasn't a secret. 'Either you have it or you don't'. He told us he owned a few thousand head of cattle and judging from the looks of his car, we decided he was doing nicely. The car wasn't a Cadillad, or a Lincoln, but a Ford coupe covered with gold, with platinum upholstry. Jerry told us that he just didn't have the heart to trade it off, so he kept it and decorated it up njust a little.n Our next stop was Indianopolis, Indiana. While there we visited the In- dianapolis Speedway. We were very surprised to hear the announcer say 'Mary Yeazel, the only woman racer in the world, known on mars, to have ever set such spectacular speed records.' After the race we went to talk to her.
