 r r r 'nco nwn 2P35 Walt, Jess Grenz, Tommy Thornhill, and Ross Coughran playing La Cucaracha”, with a girl's trio, Virginia Taylor, “Sally” Beal, and Genevieve Burns vocalizing. On the floor were Walt White, Howard Thurston, DeEtta Fagan, and Louise Critcher doing a snappy version of the Rhumba. Arriving at the gym, 1 was attracted by a tremendous voice advertising “Jones’ Educated Flea Circus’, and there was Burt Nicol wearing a checkered vest and standing on a platform shouting at the top of his manly voice. After paying a nickel to Lela Bishop, the ticket agent, I went in and saw Grayce making the fleas do all sorts of quaint and odd tricks. In the crowd were Dona McElroy, Verna Madsen, Kenny Mann, Dorothy Parker, Armada Acuff, and Herbert Blackburn, all standing with mouths wide open with amazement. 1 didn’t like the show, however, and booed quite loudly. Grayce called her two bouncers, Walter Chamberlain and Earl Davis, and I was immediately ejected. Oh! Well! After picking myself up and dusting off my clothes, I went into the gym where the race was just about ready to start. Announcing the entrants over a public broadcasting system was Norman Reid. Hurrying around to the press box, I took my place with the other reporters. Seated beside me were Suzanne Barendrick and Dorothy Ramsey, fashion editors of the local papers. Looking about the crowd, I could see Enid Emery, Marie Duerst, Nadine Peters, Virginia Strong, Alice Simonson, and Jewell Trent, all shouting at the top of their voices for their favorites. At the sound of a bugle, the four entrants came on. led by Clair Stupfel. Ervin Cue, Byron Webster, and Oscar Murray, their trainers. Clair and Ervin, 1 learned, worked for Bob Dey, while Byron and Oscar were employees of Sam Price. After circling the track once, they lined up for the start. Paul Potter fired the gun for the start, and they were off. Hubert Bernards (chief judge because he could watch the entire track without climbing upon the judge’s stand) called them back, however, because one of Sam’s snails had cheated by crossing over in his opponent’s lane. In the meantime, Alyce Callahan. Kathryn Hobbs, and Mary Shelton had fainted from the excitement, Wesley Paulson, the house physician, being called to revive them. Again they started, this time successfully. Sam's snails had broken training, though, (they had been smoking, so 1 heard) and were completely outclassed by Bob’s racers. Hurrying back down-town 1 climbed into Bill's stage coach and was on my way to the airport. Arriving, I climbed on a giant air-liner and was once again leaving the grand old town. Smaller and smaller it grew until it was but a speck on the distant horizon. Page Twenty-three
