Sitting in front of our television set, we pressed the button marked Living Roo.n Entertainment, and sat back to enjoy the cur-' rent fashion news of yes- teryear in the discovered Marsengold. First, the picture of the entire staff flashed into view. Then, one by one, the members appeared in their outlandish apparel. Sitting on our atomic heaters in our soft spun-plastic dresses, we shivered daint- ily at the idea of wearing scratchy wool. Box-like contraptions at- tached to each foot were, we learned, what they called shoes. What a pity that Earthians of that era were not born with rein- forced soles as we are. Some of these so-called shoes had raised platforms to make the wearer taller. Whereas today one has but to press his left eyeball to increase his height, and to press the right one to de- crease it Ca favorable proc- ess in time of warb. We have presented only a small sample of what is pictured in the ancient paper, recently unearthed. More will appear in the following pages. Leisure Lite in 1950 By Robin A. Molecule Needless to say, the topic at all Skimmed-Milk-Bars this past week has been the 1950 Marsengold with its pages providing free jokes to all. Of predomin- ating interest to yours truly were the uncanny, so-called activities of these peculiar people. Two-fifteen must have had a great bearing on their nerve centers, for we read of mad scrambling in the halls for freedom. Strange that they professed tContinued on Page 261 IH4 0'Nl Third Row, left to right: Thomas Cleveland, Henry Hodgdon, Edmund Raeder, Warren Cole, Kenneth Ornell, William Jeffords, Robert Rodman, Arnold Mitchell, Robert Murray, Bruce Harding, Frank Dav- idson, John Pruett, Philip Bonz.

Ruins tlisoloses Valuable Information June 8, 2000-Nation-wide hilarity was produced today as the 1950 Marsengold newspaper was presented at a premier performance on the screen of the-Luna- versal Cinema in Boston. Rocket ships were lined for miles around, with people holding their uraniiun- coated tickets in hopes of being some of the lucky Earthians to view the spec- tacular fantasy. Of major interest to the astounded public was the weird ap- pearance of this ancient race. There must have been a nation-wide shortage of razor blades as pictures disclose that they allowed hair to grow above their eyes and on the tops of their heads. Evidently the pocket had not been in- vented in 1950, as these same pictures show strange holes, probably used.. for extra carrying space' in 3 protruding structure Pe- tween what we determine to be their eyes and mouth. Small apricot-shaped struc- tures, projecting from un- derneath a mass of jungle- like wire, we assume t0 be ears. But how, we wonder, -did they obtain contact be- tween the sun and the moon without the aid Of o u r extended earlobes which contain built-in walky-talkies? However. these weird people must have possessed strange pro- phetic insight, for the Y91' lowed pages which have been unearthed contain prophecies of the group's activities twenty-five years hence, which we know to have taken place. We quote the strange document in full. CREW FRUITY FISSION CHEWING GUM
