P apJtectf. . . “Peanuts, popcorn, crackerjacks! I’ve been selling these for ten years tramping around until my feet are so sore I can hardly stand it. It surely is nice to have the circus play Paxton today to celebrate the grand opening of Kenny Watkins. Home for Broken Down Debutants. There’s Kenny now, “Hi Kenny.” Oh well, guess he didn’t see me. “Peanut! How many up there? Eleven! Say that’s some family you—Hap Wheeler! What are you doing now? Coaching your own team at Ludlow? How are they? Little but mighty? Hey! there’s someone trying to get your attention. Why it’s Margaret Young! She must be on a leave of absence from her missionary work. I’d better amble on again. See you later, Hap.” “Fresh roasted peanuts! The band is doing a super job—Byron Myhre’s sweet trumpet—Darlene Larson and Ruthie Wooldridge’s clarinets are playing softly now while everyone is breathlessly watching the trapeze artist—Maurie Adams. He looks mighty neat swinging up there now that Peg Rich and Mary Ann Beckstrand did this new designing job on the Big Top. Yes sirree, mighty neat!” “Hi, there, Lum, I haven’t seen or heard from you in several years—not since I picked up the paper and read, ‘Redheads Battle. Illini Coed, Bev. Lund-berg, and St. Louis designer, Kay Novak, fight over possible turn out of Illinois-Notre Dame Game; however, Kay won when “Ears” Graham, Fullback for Notre Dame, scored the one and only touchdown of the game.’ I wish I could have seen that but we are always on the move around here. Where’s Dot Rust keeping herself these days? Is that so? Chambermaid to Van Johnson. Boing!” “Why Betty Naugle, hello! I thought you would be too busy to make it. Oh, didn’t have to cook for the threshers today? Good enough! Take a look at who is entering the ring—that neatly stacked bareback rider, Gloria Small. Well, got to get to work again or our business manager, Kenny Johnson, will start using his old one-two on me.” “Peanuts! My but that section of gold braid up there looks profitable. I think I’ll investigate. “Well, Bob Lateer, of all people, you’re pretty young to be an admiral. Isn’t that Carl Martin and Neil Piper with you? That gold braid nearly put my eyes out. Say did you know that Marilyn Robinson has her own school for women, Robinson’s school for Reformed Redheads? Professor Don Froyd has the largest enrollment in his Home Economics class. They boast that they can reform any redhead that enters; but I hear they have had quite a time with Caryl Erickson. Her best girl friend, Phyllis Engstrom, was just expelled because they discovered that her red hair was the result of Theresa Graham’s skill as a beauty operator. I’d better get back to work now, I have a lot of competition with Pauline Forbes’ cotton candy and I can’t afford to let her get ahead of me.” “Hey, Kids, move on”—why I do believe those toughies belong to Florence Horridge and the twin curly headed girls are Maryjo Lankston’s. “Here kids, the treats on me!” Now I’m almost out of crackerjacks. I think I’d better amble down and get some more.
