PHAR .I ho.-aura f' one :MdT6h6f Un! LAGUARDIA AIRPORT . . . New Yom: CITY. . . Announcing the departure of Flight 69 for Paris, Stock- holm ..., All passengers please report to Gate 3 immediately. A projecting elbow was shoved into my ribs and there was Lucy .Lewis jramigily looking for her ticket with her latest sailliuoat model clu-tiged unger her arng. As we pushes! forward to t e te s to me t at she ha 'ust seen Ran y White- fheadxaegjbaby. We also learned from her that Alice Lee Harvie had just married a retired Naval character. Finally, jqhldclgd the plane and were shown to our seats by a little blonde .J stewardess-Tete, my how you've changed! It was past time for our takeoff and Betty Anderson, our pilot, was warming up the motors, when we saw a circular form bouncing up the runway .... Edie still hasn't gone on a diet! CEdie isithe head of the new Sisson Success Course --Watch the pounds roll offlj As we fastened our safety belts Eleanor Knox, already a sickly-green, whooped down the aisle propelled by her cool child who was vainly trying to calm her nervous mother. The next minute we were in the air and on our way to Paris. As we neared the English Coast, we spotted a small ro-wboat. Looking through our binoculars fwe always carry themj, we recognized Bonnie painting the White Cliffs of Dover! Gay Paree!! Schaperelli Sally four old friend Bowmalll was at the airport to meet Margie McGee who has flown with us from New York to attend the latest fashion openings. lt wouldn't 'be Paris if we didn't see the toast of the town-that sultry singer Lulu fnee O'Brienl. Who shouldn t be at the show but Lulie and Waller who still can't speak French fin spite of Miss Franz's struggleslg however, they seemed to be doing all right!! They told us that Gunny was vacationing on the Riviera and that she had recently seen Willie, the Belle of Monte Carlo!!! When we returned to our plane we found -that we had a new passenger, Sidney Clark. who was flying to Stockholm to join her third husband. lWe don't know what happened to the other twol. Our pilot was a little tired after her sojourn in Paris. so Sally Wharton who had iust completed her thesis on A Curve is the Shortest Line Between Two Points took over the controls. As a result we missed snowy Stockholm and landed in the Libyan Desert!! We were getting rather worried about possibilities of rescue when to our relief we saw a camel train approaching. A strange character in -the lead was singing Eager Beaver to the tune of We're Off on Road to Morocco. And there was Ellen Glasgow who was conducting an extensive search of Libya for the Hfth gospel. fl-low we do change!! We all perched on camels and journeyed to Cairo where we could catch another plane. The strangest people do turn up in Cairo! We found Nails Peirce looking up the methods Cleopatra used on Mark An-thony and Patti Wood was unearthed in a tomb studying how to be a mummie. Seated in the shade of the Sphinx we discovered Ann Neville and Alice Blaney trying -to compute the number of grains of sand in the desert on their lingers. Wall'ing in a bazaar whom did we bump into but Dede Gummere draped in a native veil and supnorted'bv a very diplomatic gentleman! BV mystic methods we finangled a pass into the Sultan's harem- well, there were Marie Chewning and the Twins Cup to their old tricks againll. In another dusty corner we stopped to have our fortune told by Martha Carrick! fShe certainly knew zoo much.J We were half an hour late arriving in Moscow. First we went to a press reception and ran right into Ann Fox. the prominent radio announcer. Foxy was holding her own rn vodka with -Ginia, the Mad-Hatter! A dashing brunette on the arm of a Russian lieutenant made a sweeping entrancew yes, it was Susan Forester! The reception, we found out, was in the honor of the eminen-t Eugenics expert-Nancy Bunce Kenly. Also seen.si-tting in the chandelier ftaking pictures of coursej was Betty Lambdin, Lifeir photo-Hash-bulb. Stiff com- petition was the New Yorkefr wit, Meg Kinard fBy the way, you are still on the staff, aren't' you. Meg?J The highlight of the quiet ball-I mean brawl-was the presentation of The Red Star for Good Conduct and Other Indoor Sports to -Gitch. Gitch recently wowed Jon Whitcomb with her p-efr-s-o- n-a-l-i-t-y ffrom song of the same namej. We staggered back to our plane. Leaning against the ramp railing in the rain was Anne Brenaman hawking the mid-nite edition of the Times. Over the Pacific to Hawaii where we saw a crowd of natives intensely interested in the dancing technique of one who, on closer inspection, turned out to be Linda Perry! . . . What a life! On Waikiki whom should we see but Marjorie Woods draped with leis modeling for Picasso. In a secluded cove we found Blissie-still honeymooning! Wham! A butaterliv net hit us on the head. That eminent bugologist Mary Terry Noble, leaping from palm tree to palm tree, raced by. Up in the hills we were suddenly attracted by a great clapping of guns. Sure enough, it proved to be 'Em Parker and her eternal U-bangis! Aloha! . . . We're off to the good ol' U. S. A. Flying over California we saw a great cloud of dust, and there was Brookie Mordecai in the middle of a round-up. Next stop Reno! Walking into the Dun-Bar we found Dot Fred and Mary Lou reminiscing. The latest gossip was all about Jeanne Parrish, the thrice married socialite divorcee. Several Holly- woodites', Robin Wardlaw, M. G. M.'s popular scenario writer, Petie Bower, whose svelt fashions have taken the country by storm, and Betsy Shober, the screen's lush new starlet who's wowing the entire male population, were all registered at our hotel. We found Wince plastered on a billboard which said she had been recently voted the No. 1 Model of the year. lfMiss Gwathmey herself uses Golden-Glo Shampoo! On our way out to -the airport we passed-a very imposing building Williams Chemical Corp. Lyn, retaining her avid interest in Chemistry, has become president of this company. We roared out of 'Reno and headed east toward St. Louis. There we set our caps for The Hub, the critics' newest bright spot transplanted by Page Ryland. Sitting in a booth was Peggy Compton, reading our former Bible teacher's book Back to ,lordan ! We spoke to Page who told us tha-t Betsy Loughran was-s-s-h-h-h-holding the fort at Valley Forge. At the annual Farmer's Convention of the U. S. Tomi and Duer were holding their own for the Eastern States .... Tomi, wearing a medal for her prize winning West Virginia lambs, told us that Duer is now the mayor of Exmore. Taking in a game at the stadium we saw Barbara Smith, the Cardinals' new manager. We heard someone calling, hot dogs, hot dogs . . and who should it he but Bobble Hopkins-mustard and all! She told us that Kathryn Lewis was the latest sensation singing Carmen at the Met. Leaving the stadium, we were almost knocked down by Dare Masters on a cross-country motorcycle trip. Dare screamed back that she had just seen Betty Bowe. president of the Minneapolis Humane Society. Next stop-Charlotte, North Carolina, the Oueen City of the South. lWha-t is this?-a travelofzue?l Floating by our plane in her little heliocopter was Tillet with six kiddies in the back seat. We were met by Mimi McMillan. the author of the best-seller Shall North Carolina Enter the Union? . loan Simpson. the new football coach at Duke, took us to lunch at -the Bo-ar's Head. just before we took off we saw Marv Oldham flying back to the Blue-grass country after making her debut with the Philadelphia Orchestra. Flying over Richmond, we saw Toni Mullinztx taking a sun- bath on the roof of Miller 8: Rhoadsg whizzing along Route 1. we saw Charlotte in her new blue Packard convertible on her way to pick up Pit Parrish, president of the Fredericksburg NWoman's Club. Running out of gas over Princeton fhm?j, we came in for an emergency landing over the campus. Imagine our surprise when we saw Ann Preston on her way to the College Entrance Examination Board! She stopped long enough to tell us that she is now the Brains behind P. O. 792. We arrived back at LaGuardia airport just before cocktail time and dashed to meet Vogel at the El Morocco .... Vogel, prominent author of How To Wray's Children fbanned in Boston!!! comes down from her Vermont farm every week-end for a spree! lf
