When I returned, I went straight to Leah Lawson's Pink Tiger Room for lunch. My waitress was an old classmate, Barbara Holland. For dessert I ordered a piece of pecan pie baked by the J. Manship Pie Co., Inc. During the meal, a fashion revue was presented by leading designers of the city. Martha Etchison modeled exclusives from the Virgil Mousa Salon. Frances Dunlavy modeled Fuscha Dresses for Redheadsu created by Norma Rutledge. As the day's guest, Lois Lukens, now doubling for Lana Turner, mod- eled a gown of bright red and pink. My next stop was Macy's Department Store. There was quite a commotion at one end of the first floor. As I got nearer I saw what resembled a miniature navy, but to my amazement, I found it was Sherry COrmeJ and her little sailors. Barbara Mingle, their nurse, was holding the smallest one so he could see over the counters. Mar- ilyn Austin was the one drawing all the attention, she was showing the kiddies how she pitches a no hit, no run, no error game for the Purple Sox Baseball Team of Huntsville. The next familiar face I saw was that of Joyce Boicourt. She was sell- ing Whatchacall, the successor of Hadacol. It was nearing closing time for Macy'sg so I decided I would take a walk, then possibly go to the show. Some way or other I got on a side street and soon I saw signs reading Hoefner's Pool Room-Owned and Operated by the world famous David Hoefner and Gay and Irene's Pawn Shop-Engagement Rings Our Specialty-Irene Noble and Gay James, Owners and Proprietors. Finally, after what seemed like hours, I reached the greasepaint street -Broadway. I went to the Palace Theater where so many stars had gotten their starts. Playing there was Ed Scudder and his Musicales with Max Mercer as his featured artist. The vocalists with the band were The Three J's- Joan Cordell, Joyce Bradley, and Joan Rencenberger--who had just re- turned from a European tour. Joan Kinder and Marilyn Burns did a special- ty act on stilts. On my way back to the Astor, the cab passed a huge advertisement which signified that another '51er had made good. It read: For drinks that never fail, use Ayers' Beer and Ale . Sounds as if Paul might be mak- ing use of all the surplus grain at the elevator. Upon arrival at the hotel, I found people assembling for the annual mayors' convention. Under the Indiana banner sat Don Milner, Ingalls' first mayor and his personal secretary, Sara Main. On the lobby news stand, the Gazette's headlines blazed--CARROLL RIDGEWAY REPLACES EINSTEIN AS TOPS IN FIELD OF SCIENCE.. A cartoon on page one by Theresa Stohler pictures Mary Stinson in her last filibuster to stop the present bill to do away with the Florida naval training station. In the background was G. M. Grabill who is now serving as Sergeant at Arms in the Senate. As I take a count, that makes all 51 of our 51'ers plus our past guide. Here's hoping we soon meet again. Good-night, E. A. H.
