The Oipi of 1951 has attempted to recapture- for you all the fun, the thrills, the laughs, the failures, the faults, the successes, and the tears that have made up one year here at dear old M. H. S. . .. , WY.-.-.-1.-F,-1-. -..7,,.-.... ,wg-rv.. ,.. fe . -I' - 1 - ...--111 THE OIPI 1951 Macon High Schoolls Code of Honor The honor of Macon High School lies in the keeping of its students. Every student owes a debt of gratitude to his school, which he repays by loyalty and honor to it in every respect. Thus the ideal student obeys its rules and regulations, supports its activities, respects its teachers, and cooperates with his fellow studentsg he guards against unnecessary a.bsences and tardies. He strives to keep himself morally, mentally, and physically fit, thereby making Macon High School an acknowledged shrine of education second to none in its standards and rating. VVritten for Macon High School by the Speech Class of 1942. 6'The Orange and the Black Although Yale has always favore clthe violet's dark blue, And the gentle sons of Harvard to the crimson rose are true, We will own the lilies slender, nor honor shall they lack While the Tiger stands defender of the Orange and the Black. Through the four long years of high school, midst the scenes we know so well, As the mystic charms of knowledge, we vainly seek to spell, Or we win athletic victories on foot-ball field or track, Still we work for dear old Macon and the Orange and the Black. When the cares of life o'ertake us, misgling fast our locks with gray, Should our dearest hopes betray us, false fortune fall our way, Still we banish care and sadness, as we turn our memories back, And recall those days of gladness 'neath the Orange and the Black. gp ,Z , 2315 I f t 15 514 5, in ' S 52 N ,T 0 THE OIPI 1951 Dedication 1 Q ' - f Q ' Mserifr fa.

C. Marksbury, instructor of Mathematicsg and Miss Bessie Browning, instructor of Social Studies, who, for more than twenty years, have taught in Macon High School. They have given us wise and progressive leadership, friendliness, beauty, and under- standing. Their every thought, word, and deed have made M. H. S. a more glorious institu- tion. To these, then, who have inspired the lives of so many M. H. S. students, we pay tribute and respect. THE OIPI 1951 Yearbook Staff .lIl the first Week of September 1950 the members of the senior class who wished to work on the 1950-51 Oipi met with Miss Jones to organize their yearbook staff. During the first semester's work the staff worked only in spare time and at special meet- ings. During this time they sold advertisements, took the class pictures, and started their Writeups. When the second semester came, and government class was over, the staff worked every da.y. They set up a dummy and finished all write-ups. Then came the big day when the dum- my Was finished and sent to the printers. ' All the members of the yearbook staff have enjoyed making this year's Oipi and hope you of the Macon High School will enjoy it just as much.

For your sincere, understanding, listening ears For your untiring, kindly, genial mood, We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your great and kind and generous Way, Has made you Worth far more than your pay We have demanded so much, but you have given even more. Your Wittiness with your cheerful smile and twinkling eye, Your guiding hand and inspiring leadership are a daily chore, But you, through your ageless features, your weariness belie. The memories of this year to us will be golden To you, our dearest friends, we always shall be beholden.

Upon investigation they found it was not men from Mars, but just 95 p-green Freshmen, who were determined to take over the high school. Soon we had our first class-meeting, and we elected Tom Zelade as our President and Barry Green and Grace Craig as our representatives on the Student Council. Time passed, and soon it was the Homecoming and we elected Jean Franks as our Class Queen. In April we participated in Fun Night and Doris Jean W'aller was our representative in the Queen Contest. By the time we were Sophomores we were quite a problemg at least the teachers thought so. But- really we were improving! We elected Stan Grimm to lead our class through the long, hard year. Carol Edwards and Tom Zelade stood up for our rights on the Student Council. Fair-haired Judy McQuay reigned as our Class Queen, and Ramona Maloney as our Homecoming Sophomore attendant. Our Junior year began as gentle as a lamb, but it went out like a lion. This year was one of our hardest years, but with Stanley Faught in the driver's seat we succeeded in pulling through. Small, black-haired Patsy Bianchi was our Class Queen for the Homecoming Parade, with Rose Anne Kelley as our Junior Attendant to the Homecoming Queen. This year we had the large responsibility of raising funds for the Junior-Senior Prom. Se we sold every- thing from pins to doughnuts. We also sponsored two school dances. We had the Homecoming Dance in Oct- ober and later in the year we had a Spring Dance. Both were a success, but natch! We had the food-stand at the Homecoming gameg we just about ran out of everything but mustard. Mr. Nelson, one of our class spon- sors, picked up his nick-name that night. Just call him Perk . Our class is loaded with talent. To prove it. Barry Green with the aid of his Cornet won first at Kirksville and second at Columbia. The Brass Sextet tincluding three Juniors-Hazel Hartung, Alfred Welch, and Betty Whittenburgi won first at Kirksville and Columbia! Be tty Whittenburg and her french horn won first at Kirks- ville. Barry Green and Alfred Welch, two of the three members of the 'Cornet Trio, won third at Columbia. With a year's experience behind us, how many prizes will we take in '51? We didn't, either, bribe the judge!! Well, what do you know?? It is September 1950, and that means we are SENIORS!!! It hardly seems as if three years have passed, but we didn't let the underclassmen know our feelings. We tightened our safety belts and took off for the best year Macon High has ever known. To prove that we were going to have a whiz of a ye ar, we picked a whiz of a leader-Francis Edward Tem- pleman. For the first time in our class history we elected a Class Queen and King-Katherine Christiansen and Alfred Welch. We really out-did ourselves this year on our class fioat for the Homecoming Parade. Our float represented the throne room of the King and Queen. The white-draped throne was built on a platform at the front of the truck with steps leading up to the throne covered with grass. Above the throne was a huge silver crown with the word-SENIORS-written across the front of the crown in red. The rest of the truck was attractively decorated in our class colors-red and white. The football squad with Tom Zelade and Stan Faught as co-captains chose-guess who?? N0 - - Yes - - Miss Ramona Maloney as the Homecoming Queen of the year 1950. Her Senior Attendant was Sue Roebuck. Since the Seniors of 1950 had a Senior Trip, we were determined to have a trip or bust!! So early in Oct- ober we declared a Senior Work Day. We raked leaves, put up storm windows, and worked for local merchants until at the end of the day we had S196 in our Treasury. Stan Faught received S6 for his day's work at Kroger's. This was the most turned in by a Senior for one day's work. Once Stanley gets started there is no stopping him! This year the class of '51 .published the best Oipi that has been put out since the first one in 1910. The Oipi Queen was cute, blue-eyed Marilyn Orbin. We are sure the underclassmen agree with us that we couldn't have picked a lovelier queen. Despite our reputation, this year the Senior Class got busy and revived the school newspaper. The new school newspa.per is called- The Tiger's-Tale . The tour Seniors on the staff are: Stan Grimm, Editorg Barbara Pate, Business Managerg Wilma White and Virginia Lucas, Reporters. Other years just dragged along, but our Senior year flew, especially after the second semester. We had a class meeting and chose grey caps and gowns. But lo and behold we all agreed on one thing for the first time in twelve years! VVe agreed on our announcementsg Mr. Knapp nearly collapsed from the shock. We had to write our real names for our diplomas, the reward for twelve years of hard labor. On March 21, we had Senior Career Day at MHS. Seniors from over Macon County met and heard interesting talks on different careers. On April 20, we traveled to Kirksville for our annual Senior Day at K.S.T.C. And guess what-?? We got the trip and a swell time was had by all Seniors and their sponsors. That last week was wonderful- the Prom, our Senior Breakfast, and the final Senior Assembly. But above all, our Baccalaureate and Com- mencement. . On May 19, 1951, as we marched to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance a great loss was felt by all students of MHS as the Senior Class of 1951 walked out the doors to face the cold, hard world.

W hite Carnation The Junior Class of 1950-51 chose Miss Betty Ann Linn as Class Queen for the Homecom- ing activities. She was attractively dressed in the class colors, blue and white. A silver crown was placed upon her head, and she wore a corsage of white carnations. Her float was in the style of -a chariot with blue and' white streamers and was pulled by four boys dressed in blue and white. The Junior Class attendant to the Homecoming queen was Miss Jean DeMoss. As Christmas approached, the Juniors began to prepare Christmas baskets for needy fam- ilies. The baskets were attractively decorated in crepe paper and contained fresh fruit, veg- etables and toys. ' To make money for the prom, the Juniors sold football badges, typing paper, magazine subscriptions, popcorn and candy, and sponsored a food stand during Homecoming. One of the most exciting events of the ye-ar was ordering the class rings. This event was talked about for sometime, and everyone is loo king forward to receiving them. The Juniors also helped at the all-school Fun Night to make it more successful. The last and the most thrilling event occured May 11. It was the Junior-Senior Prom sponsored by the Juniors. This was held in the Jefferson Hotel and Elks building. Guests for the evening were the Senior Class of '51, the faculty, the members of the school board and their wives.

Freshmen with their tender minds always on studies of their kinds Looking neither le-ft nor right but charging on with all their might Freshmen unthinking of rules that bind, but hurrying on to find They cannot be righ and often, quite often, we see a light. Your trials were a cross to bear, but you have borne them with a countenance fair You who are so innocent, sweet, and fair, about whom everyone seems to care, You always raise an awful din, but really you mean no harm in the end We found you as the greenest of freshmen, too soon, you will have Seniors been.

Here, at Macon High School we have a variety of cultural subjects. Students appreciate their oppor- tunity to acquaint themselves with at least one of these subjects. The cultural subjects offered are: Music Cband and chorusb instructed by Mr. Gerald Sandbotheg Speech and Literature IV taught by Miss Elsie Jones, and Art under the direction of Mrs. Laura Kessler. The chorus and band, directed by Mr. San dbothe, gave many fine concerts during the year. In Literature IV the class studied Shakesp eare's Macbeth, narra.tive and lyric poems of all types, short stories, essays, and novels. The speech class prepared speeches of different types, studied interpretative reading and choral speakingthe first part of the year. Second semester they worked on drama apprec- iation, and in Ferbruary and March the class gave a number of one-act plays. The art class sent posters and pictures to various art contests. On Fun Night the art classes had their year's work on display in Room 115.

Our shelves are rather bare. This past year our book shelves have been thoroughly renovated. This weeding-out process was conducted by Miss Edna Bothe, School Library specialist of the Mis- souri State Library. September 11, 12., 13, 19 50 a school Librarian work shop was held in Macon High School. Over half of the books in the collection were discarded because they were out of date, worn out, or unsuitable for school use. As a further result of this work shop the following recommendations were made: a combination Work and conference room of pres- ent library room and' making a library out of study hall with open shelves around the room and table and chairs to re-place' desks and the books retained until re-placed by new titles. We hope to carry out these recomendations as soon as funds and time permits. We have ordered as many new books as th e budget will allow and throughout the year we have re-bound 100 old books.- The State Library sent us a loan of 400 books, which has helped fill the gaps until new ones arrive. pp l A MRS.

The Macon Basketball team finished the 1950-51 season with a mediocre record, 10 wins and 13 losses. This record is not as bad as it appears, for Macon had a rather difficult sched- ule, playing some of the higher class teams. Putting on the a court a team that averaged about 5 feet 10 inches in height, they played a fast brand of ball which shows they were well coached. - With a little more height the Macon team would have, with all probability, shown a more impressive record than that which they have had in the past few seasons. In the three tournaments in which Macon participated Shelbina, La Plata, and Class A Regional at Kirksville, they failed to walk off with a. single trophy. Macon won its first game and lost the second in both the Shelbina and La Plata tournaments, while dropping the opener in the regional at Kirksville. : isa: THE OIPI 1951 '- l LETTERMEN Bob Woods-Senior-2 year letterman-Bob had a lot of drive and was second leading scorer.

The girls averaged 37 points a game with Ramona Maloney taking high point honors by scoring 353 .points, an average of 15.34 points a game. Their opponents averaged 24.3 points a game showing that Macon not only played a good offensive game, but a strong defensive game as well. The guards were cap- ably led by Betty Brown who with four years experience played her position smoothly and well. The Tigerettes began their season with an invitation to the annual Ethel Tournament. They overwhelmed the Elmer team 66 to 15, and met an always strong Atlanta Team in the semi-finals. This win put them in the finals where they met and defeated the Bucklin Pups 46 to 39 to bring home their first trophy of the new season. The Tigeretts played 13 scheduled games winning 11 and losing 2 to their arch rivals, the La Plata Girls. They also entered the Shelbina Tournament where they met Shelbyville and defeated them 44 to 28. They were matched with the Clarence Guerillas in the semi-finals coming out to win 30 to 23. The finals saw Macon and Monroe City battling it out in a nip and tuck fight all the way with Monroe City winning out in the last three seconds of the game 38 to 37. Oh well! the second place throphy wasn't bad. The big tournament of the year which draws the top teams all around started on Tuesday, February 13. The Macon Girls started out strong scorching the Huntsville Squaws 35 to 21. Due to inclement weather, Meadville forfeited their game with Macon. This win moved them in to the semi-Hnals where they met the top ceded team of the tournament, Memphis. They did themselves proud by playing an exciting game and losing by only 4 points 36 to 32. This loss matched them with the Shelbina Indians for third place honors which they won 41 to 24. The girls brought home a trophy for every tournament, this being the largest in size and the smallest in honor. The last game of the La Plata Tournament was the last game for six of the 'senior girls - the two co- captains, Ramona Maloney and Betty Brown, Jean Hendren, Nancy McDaniel, Barbara Othick and Janet Erick- son. If we are allowed to call this a successful season, we owe much of our success to Coach Meador, and to the public in general who showed enthusiasm in our activities. Others who made this a successful season were Lee McDowell, who for many years has accompanied us on our trips and done an excellent job of keeping score, and members of the school faculty who were kind enough to accompany us on all our road trips and to help us when ever they could.

Plans for the coming year were made and officers were elected. They were: President, Jo Ann Todd, Vice President, Sue Roebuck, Secretary and Treasurer, Rose Anne Kelley. . , Cheerleaders were: Sue Nash, Toni Novaria., Joyce McMillin for Football Season, and Betty Weisenborn for Basketball Season. ,ff - Plans for the Homecoming which included the Pep Rally, Snake Dance, the Parade, and the Game were supervised by the president. It was voted by the group to purchase uniforms for the Pep Squad leaders. One-half the cost of the uniforms was borne by the schoolg the other one-half was made possible through the sale of cakes and popcorn at the noon hour. Moves were made to establish attendance at Pep Squad meetings, whereby standards may be set and ratings given. On behalf of the Pep Squad, I, Jo Ann Tod d, as President, wish to take this means to thank the faculty and our two sponsors, Mrs. Kessler and Mrs. Leist for their fine co-operation. l I Book IV CONTENTS MISCELLANEOUS CALENDAR EVENTS PROPHECY WILL THE OIPI 1951 A 5 '1!-1 'W Q v ,.e , , . . r:'y-W g a 142 iff: -l ix' ' E- J-is ,gf I V -5f'zI '- iiAl5.E1'i ' A all Q !

' THE OIPI 1951 ' E Highlights of 1950-51 SENIOR WORK DAY The Senior Work Day was a real red letter day for us when we found out how much we had made, but we were plenty sore the next day because of our stiff back and big blisters. Work day, an annual Senior event, was Nov. lg our champion money winner was Stanley tMusclesD Faught with 36.00. The workday was held to finance that great expedtion, the Senior Trip. So far the destination is quite questionable. CHILLICOTHE GAMES The Senior girls took part in an experiment conducted by the State Board of Training Schools when they traveled to Chillicothe to play the girls basketball team of Hyde High School. The experiment proved to be a gratifying experience for the nine Senior girls from Macon who participated as well as an entertainng one for the students of Hyde High School, who were spectators there. Both teams enjoyed the game so much that a return game was scheduled here at Macon. The Hyde Team came and played an exciting game for the fans. Then they were, they said, royally entertained and well fed by their hostesses. The girls were sorry to leave and amid many parting promises and flurry of good-byes the hope was express- ed that these games would be an annual get-together of the two schools. N Y.-Q12 'ea ad 111 W. 3. CHRISTMAS BASKETS The entire high school gave food and gifts for the Christmas Baskets which were col- lected by all at the fourteen first hour classes and distributed by a committee of two from each class. CAREER DAY On March 21st the Business and Professional Women's Club sponsored a Career Day at the Macon High School for all the Seniors of Macon County. The Career Day fthe first of its kind for our countyj was opened by an invocation. Mr. Phelps then gave the visitors a hearty welcomeg the high school chorus sang two rousing se- lections, an we got down to the business of the day. Miss Graves then introducted the speak- er, Mr. George Mower of the Dept. of Education at Jefferson City. He gave us much pract- ical information about careers and the sage advice that there is plenty of room at the top in every profession and job. The Seniors were then divided into groups to hear the particular specialist that was engaged to speak on their chosen professions. The Seniors had previous- ly designated the career of their choice on a questionaire. There were 20 professions and careers discussed by specialists in those fields. This di- versified program covered journalism to mechanics, and was received with great enthusiasm by the Seniors. The Army and Navy were well represented in the afternoon by Louis C. Spark BTC, U.S.N. and MfSgt. Elliott Nelson. Their lectures were beneficial as well as entertaining. To nnish an excellent day, cokes and cookies were served to everyone, and an interesting time was had by all. THE OIPI 1951 Mone t wi AP 452' j- ,A ef 'ff' nr 7 :i .L .

Oh, the things such as the date. Oct. 6, 1950, won't stay with us long, but the fun We had and the special little things we did will remain with us long after our school days are over. Remember how all the fun began? It was the Snake Dance. We all ran hand in hand around the block shouting and laughing, and then we ran down to the court house to burn our opponent, the Panther. The next morning We were all up to school bright and early to start to work on the floats. Gee wasn't it fun draping the crepe paper and wishing and betting that our float was going to be the best? Next, came the parade and I think we'll all agree that our hard work wasn't wasted. Everyone thought the parade was beautiful. At last it was game time, so we all took off for the football field in our new outfits. The game was swell and We had a wonderful crowd. Last, but not least, was the dance in the gym. Remember the little wishing well? Well, those are just some of the high points of what OUR HOMECOMINGR' was like, but for each one of us I'm sure it holds some special memories. It might have been falling down in the Snake Dance or being chosen a queen or throwing a penny in the wishing well with a guy or gal we thought was tops, but no matter what those memories are I'm sure they're happy ones. + THE OIPI 1951 A 4 The Crystal Ball Knows All KM 7' It is Macon, the year 1965. Barnum Baily Circus is in town, and who is that struggling through the circus grounds, with twelve kids trailing after them '? ?? No! It can't be, but it is? ? '? It is Mr. and Mrs. CKathyJ Schneider. My, how they have changed since we were Sen- iors! Seems, Allen is having trouble, the kids want to ride on the Merry-go-round. So, Allen and Kathy storm off to see the circus for themselves. In one corner of the circus, is a small fortune teller's tent. Kathy persuades Allen to go in and see what the crystal ball could reveal. Reluctantly Allen agrees and they step into the tent. After they are seated, the fortune teller asks them if there is anything in particular that they would like to know. After studying awhile Kathy says, I have always wondered what become of all our classmates. The fortune teller tells Allen and Kathy to concentrate upon the shadows in the crystal ball and before their eyes the shadows change into a whirling mass, which in an instant con- geals into figures they recognize as some of their classmates. Immediately Kathy exclaims! Why there is Tommy Winkler's Spring fashion show. He is showing his new creations of Winkie's Ready to Wear CLingerie that isl Winkie's Kathy says, My favorite. Why, who's that wearing a bathing cap and carrying a beach hat? It must be Wilma Conley, the expert deep sea diver. And there's Finis Faught the featherweight champion of the world. Irma Simmons is now head nurse of the W.W.N. CWilma White's Nervel Hospital. You have to have nerve to enter. Charles CAD Schillie owner of the Giggle A While funeral home, has been coming here quite frequently. Does he go to get a patient or to see My friend Irma. Next to appear in the crystal ball is Janet Erickson, Barbara Othick, Betty Brown, and Ramona. Maloney who are now the owners and manufacturers of the Snap, Crack, and Pop '?? Guess What? ? ? If you can't just ask Annie. Look! who's that. It must be Carolyn Smith, who works at the Smith's Mothball Factory. Located on Lake Park Drive. She hasn't had a loss lately. THE GIPI 1951 Ah-! I ll What's that? The Thing Billy Wilson still trying to tie a bow tie and is final- ly getting it straight with as little help as possible. And it seems rather strange, but he's car- rying a dictionary and looking under perdiddle. And look who's coming next, why it is Patsy Bianchi, the famous artist. She has just finished painting Lizzard Alley sequel to the Snake Pit. , As Allen's thoughts wander to the money being spent by the brats on the merry-go-round, the shadows in the crystal ball became blurred, and the gypsy tells Allen he' must concentrate on his classmates, so Allen brings his thoughts back to the present. Again the shadows be- came clear. A form begins to take shape which turns out to be the remains of Barbara Pate. No! she's not dead, she's just making history as the first Woman President. Then to appear is the U.S.S. Bubbles the greatest battleship since the Missouri was sunk when Roy Richard- son, U.S.N., threw a cigarette in the ammo dump , and guess who is the admiral of the U.S.S. Bubbles none other than the notorious woman chaser, Admiral .Crayton Kirks. His chief petty officer, Frank E. Templeman is working hard at swabbing the deck with a toothpick The picture fades and into view comes the shining horn of Barry CRussJ Green featured night- ly at John Hammontree's Diamond Horseshoe. Russ has been packing them in for ten years now. His special vocalist and acrobat is Carol Faris, his biggest rival is Alfred Welch, who is playing at the Stork Club. Alfred features an unusual trio with Betty Whittenburg and her French horn, Hazel Hartung and William Huntsman, that ever loving couple on the bass horn. CFor this Hazel killed us all and Charlie put us away.J Next they see in the crystal ball a T. V. show, the star Stan CI love mel Faught. Pres- ident of his own I Love Me Fan Clubs. He is proclaimed to be the greatest comic since Mil- ton Berle. Harold Holman, the Radio Announcer with the softest voice this side of heaven is selling his Wildroot Cream Oil like mad because all the girls fall in love with his beautiful black, curly hair. What-is this flaming red object, Kathy asks. Why it's Tommy Zelade just out of Sing- Sing, that musical college. serving 14 years for initiating Freshmen in 1951. Tommy's warden for those many years was Richard Danner, who slipped many a cake with a file to him. Next to drift into the ball is a bathing suit with Marilyn Orbin in it, designed by Ellen Powell, the Irene of Hollywood, now famous designer for Metro-Leist Studios with Bob Leist as President producer of that smash hit Ma and Pa Kettle on Their Second Dozen starring Jean Franks and Billy Gaines. Kathy is surprised by the noises coming from the crystal ball, it seems to come from the divorce court of Judge Stanley Grimm. It seems that Rose Anne Kelley is getting her seventh divorce from Dick Hall, the world's greatest game hunter. The reason for the suit was Dick's affectionate ways to a ring-tailed baboon he said, lt looked so much like my wife. P.S. She got the divorce. Next they hear a thump! thump! coming from the crystal ball. Why it's that acrobatic quartet-Jean and Howard Hendren and Harlan and Helen Ellerbeck - called The High Flying Flies, of Tight VVire Fame now showing in Madison Square Garden, exclaims Kathy. As they gazed into the ball they saw a whoosh! and another whoosh, finally they recogniz- cd Vern Alexander in his famous racer, Black Cat No. 13 CWho is afraid of bad luckl He has just won the five hundred mile, million-dollar auto race at India.napolis. After taking a close look into the crystal ball they see a small building coming into view, as they watch they recognize the Brown Derby owned and operated by Allen Burkhart who is serving dinner to four of his old classmates, Jo Ann Todd, Honey Ricker, Su-e Roebuck, and Wanda Turpin who are in Hollywood trying to crash the gates of the M. L. M. Studio to get into moving pictures. 1- + THE OIPI 1951 4- -1 And now to come into sight is a bed of strawberries, it is the So round, So Firm, So Fully packed Strawberry Farm owned and cultivated by Richard Strobietto and Doris Smith. As you can se-e they have been cultivating other things, by the diapers on the line. They recognized Sportmanis Park at St. Louis with a close ball game going on between the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Cardinals. Behind the plate for the Cardinals is that molasses fingered catcher Bob Woods who hasn't missed one yet and on the mound is that pitcher among pitchers, with the fastest ball and smoothest curve this side of? '? ? 'Z Bob fBig Planej Shoemaker. Th-e pennant contending team is coached by that hard headed mean tempered mild mannered Mary Phyllis McCreery. Next they hear the strains of There went the Bride drifting from the crystal ball. It is the wedding of Grace Craig and Charles Hill. The bride is flustered and the groom seems to be very calm, cool, and collected. Who's that catching the bride's bouquet? Why it's Virginia Lucas, proclaimed the debutante of the year, she has already had 17 proposals. Her chief suitor is Robert Laytham, that suave, sophisticated man of the World. CUnderworld that is.J There is a savage yell and then Vodra Techau and Wanda Smith appear with their hus- bands. They are now serving as missionaries in the deep da.rk Congo. They haven't turned cannibals yet but it has been rumored that Vodra is going to eat her husband because he is so sweet. They were visited just last year by the World Traveling Quick Tongued Salesman Donald Lenon, Donald Maloney, Danny DeW-eese, and Bob Ollman. selling Carol Edwards' Cold Cure. The formula is as follows: Vicks, Aspirin, Minute Rub, Johnson's Baby Oil., a big lunch wrapped with seven or eight wool scarves over which is worn a pair of jeans and long tailed shirt. This is guaranteed not for years-not for life-but forever. With a Clangl Clang! Holman appears, Sondra that is, fixing a busted Water pipe in the basement of the Cloyd home broken by Dave, Jr., while fighting off the onslaught of the other dozen. With a whish Dorothy Wills and Gerry Early skate into view. They are presenting their skating act at Kiel Auditorium. They are packing the house. Next with a yippe-ki-o-ki-ya Gloria Teter twirling her lariat astride the Palimino, Bus- tle Rust1er, owned by Nancy McDaniel's Lazy-C Ranch. There is a fanfare and they see Dorothy Widner being awarded the Nobel Prize for the Chemist of the year. When she announced her analysis of water, she said, It's wet ! Headlines stream across the crystal ball, VVhat is the new book all America is reading. The Care and Feeding of Little Ducks written and edited by Janieee McAfee Haney. Kat and Allen are puzzled by the next scene. They are welcoming Dorothy Gipson back from the Olympic Games, she has just brokten the world record in ski jumping by jumping 2 feet 6 inches. She did it the ha.rd Way-with out skis. They are now puzzled by a thin line across the crystal ball and then comes Doris Jean Waller swinging and swaying across the wire. Doris Jean is acclaimed the greatest tight rope walker of all. She has never had a tumble. C ,,,,,,.,,,,,,,,,,,,.,,,,,,,...,,,. R .,................................ A .................................. S ................................,. H The gypsy, Allen and Kat dash outside the tent and there lies Doris Jean. They hear a siren and up pulls Charlie to collect Doris Jean to rush her to the hospital. Allen and Kat deeply saddened by the last event walk back to the merry-go-round where they collect the kids, who by this time have driven the operator stark raving mad. As they leave the carnival grounds they bump into their old friends Carter and Betty Kirks plus their 14 kids. The kids immediately start fighting and the parents trying to break up the riot be- come angry and flustered and on this happy thought we end.
