has retired and that Herle Ary Blackburn has been employed as English teacher, after having graduated from the University of Texas. As I left the building which is now a six story affair, I stumbled over the broom which the janitoress, Ira. E.C. lclurray had left there. Since the skating business did not pay much, Ira. lac consented to supplement the family income by working. - I passed bythe bank and remembered I had neglected to cash a check. I found Juanita Haaaons Harris using her knowledge acquired in Book- keeping and helping in the bank, while her husband, Ted Harris is in Dallas running up the score in a big league basketball game. Walking down Silk Stocking Avenue, I looked up and saw a huge neon sign 'HOT SPOTS FOR BOBBY SOCKS'--Chub Fellers owner. Upon leaving this high class night club, I found a taxi waiting for me. Who is driving it? Why it's Jeanie Flanagan. She tells me that she and her husband, J.B. Anderson, takes turns driving the taxi and attending James Burl Jr. I was wondering where I could spend my evening, and Jeanie re- commended the one and one-half ring circus which had just come to town- She tells me that Douglas Simpson is the master mind, the wide awake, prosperous genius of the whole show. Looking around among the people I noticed a man off by himself. Getting closer, I see he is counting pennies, and mumbling to himself. I realize that it is Benny Belz--a staunch bachelor, once 'Miss Alice Blue Gown' of S.H.S. As I go in, I see a large crowd around a tent. Who is this fellow yelling? Why, it's Bobby Joi Willis! On seeing me, he invited me to see his show, which is now considered as gopd as Earl Carro1l's Vanities. At last Bobby Joe is surrounded by beautiful women--his life-long desire. O After this popular act, I hear a great commotion. Why it as the lion tamer trying to make the mighty king of the jungle take his place with the other animals. Much to my surprise I find it is Toa Hood, who acquired this art practicing on his brothers'at home. The last act of the show is the 'Three Candrew Sisters', Betty Stanford, Opal Elrod, and Percilla Morris, who are crowded by swooning ex-Indians as they sing 'Beer, Beer for Old Sanger High'. I was just about to join in the song when I was shaken by the psychiatrist, Dr. Nutts. He told me he hated to awaken me from the trance because I was having such a wonderful time. If you are ever in need of a psychiatrist, I heartily.recommend you look up someone other than Dr. U.R. Nutts. I
