In august, 1953 we find. Mr. Mrs. Carlson, formerly Mlss Sandfort. r. teacher. of Polk High School, leaving their farm in Polk County to go to California where they will attend the big World's Fair, and also where Mr. Carlson will put on an experimental Pig Show . Before they left, they were invited to eat supper in the home of Mr. U Mrs. 3illy 31ender and family. Mrs. 31ender was better known as Goldie Van Ostrand. After supper they decided to attend a show, here they saw Scrambling Up the Stage starring Randall Runaulst ana Marvelvn Peterson. It proved to be an enjoyable evening due to the fact that former Polk students were on the screen. Here they bid Mr. Mrs. Blonder Good-night, Early the next morning they started on their long Journey. On their way they passed Loneta Anderson and Wayne Llndholm in their little green austin. ' . Th'ir first night was spent in a hotel in Cheyenne, Wyomin . At the iosk in the hotel they discovered Miss Lohmiller. While having a friendly chat they were interrupted by the bell-boy, who proved to be Leland 3ills. The next morning they started out again but were delayed by a flat tire.

They hardly recognized them as Miss Nelson was so much thinner and Miss Woodman was wearing a new set of false teeth. However they had an enjoyable visit with them and decided to make this their rooming place for the time being. The next day, Mr. Carlson demonstrated his Pig Show , and won a blue ribbon and a check for $500. After the show everyone was congratulating him on his good-looking Hampshires . The ribbon was presented to him by Mr. Noel Edwin Keallher. who had the honor of being Judge of the demonstrations. Since Mr, and Mrs. Carlson had won this amount of money, Mrs. Carlson decided that they should make use of it by visiting Hollywood. First they visited the home of Charlie McGarthy. To their amazement they were met at the door by Charlie's maid, Doris V rilshusen. This was really a shock to Doris as well as Mr. and Mrs. Carlson.
