Still working at the Thrifty TeirCent Store, we find Lorraine Wegl.irz and Elizabeth Forintos, giving a high-pressure sales talk to James Holtz who has spent half his check already. At the Be Happy Rollerdrome, we find Teacher Carl Drangin artfully administrating useful hints to Glo- ria Del Puppo and Yolanda Macchione.

Returning from the 1960 Olympics games and re- ceiving a tremendous ovation is Bob Hickson, the Worlds Renowned Knitting Champion. Recently discharged from Girl Scouts are Walter Brannan and Charles Pelfrey, because of their perpetual habit of burning the morning toast. Now as the prophets look into the mystic ball, there is a loud explosion as the orb bursts into a million pieces so we shall not know our own future. We shall have Steve Nagy is racing his own midget racer at East Detroit. The Navy “5” is what he calls his racer. 'Die officials finally caught up with him. (No driver’s license yet.)
