V e I- 'ir' 'T' the meantime, the wheel chairs are being inspected and repaired by Barb Neeper fthe head mechanicl and her assistants Walt Meller and Tom Williams. Anna Bratek, the ugermetologist' checks for germs in the hub caps. Shirley Hill. the expert is coaching the drivers for the next race. As we are watching the spectacle, the air is then filled with sounds of loud hammering and drilling. In the corner we see Maureen O'Malley, Judy Rymal, and Beth Schultz trying to break a hole through the wall. The haggard head of the Home quiets them and then explains that they were confined because of bad conduct. It seems that they thought that wall was the Berlin Wall and wished to break it down. The proprietor next takes us to the main ball room where we Hnd a party for the mem- bers of the Home's Labor Union. The motto of this union is: We do everything and any- thing. Their smiling leader is Jimmie Feltham and his assistant Judie Lechner. These two are leaders of a smile campaign. However, Sharon Clendening, a beauty expert, is trying to wreck the campaign because it causes wrinkles in the face. Social workers are represented here by Charmagne LaJoie, Kathy Ryan, Sheila Sahr, Carol Zabel, and Grouse Oim Grosej. Every now and then a group of runners pass us on their way around the hall. Some of them are: Sandy Benzinger and Jim Dio ftrainers and riders of horsesl, John Juan Estes fthe Jack LaLanne of the 21st centuryl, and finally Bob Gabri, a wrestler who wins by strangling his opponents with the locks of his hair. One of the well-known artists at this convention is Dick Gerlach, who paints portraits Cusually of Jim Hammond, the farmerj. We are also introduced to Joyce Dunn, who is covering the convention for her newspaper, 'The Daily Snoop! Next the proprietor shows us the infirmary. Here we find nurses Binga, Miller. Pollow, Schmelzle, Starkweather, and Surdoval gathered around a cot on which a pale-looking Gary Heppner is lying. Dr. 'iBen Stacy explains that Gary burned his fingers on his wife's fludyb vacuum cleaner cord while trying to repair it. Now we are led to an office down the hall. After going through two rooms fone presided over by Sec. Pack and the other by Sec. Bryantj, we find ourselves in Mr. Ed Marr's ofhce, who is a mystery writer. At the moment he is talking to novelist Dave Guerdat about his new book, How to Get Ahead Without Working. Next we enter a large classroom in which many elderly people are diligently working. The teacher's desk plate reads Miss Craven. The students, we are told, never quite made the grade at Starpoint, and so are still working for their diplomas. Among them are Phyllis Behun who is studying to become a librariang Sally Dueger fjust tryinglg Gary Strothmang Diane Gifford, who hopes to become a biologistg Jackie Hillman: Donna Kruegerg Larry Laughling Linda Menard, who is a reactionary to the beatniksg Sandy Stegner, who wants to become a mathemeticiang Marilyn McKennag and Lewis Labiak. There also seems to be a gentleman who is always jumping about asking questions. We learn his name when the teacher says, Well, Mr. Neuman-it's very obvious that the earth revolves around the sun and Not vice-versa! In the other corner there is a fellow who seems to be drawing a sort of poster. On close inspection, the words become visible. It reads: More rights for students in schools! and signed Pete Jenks. All of a sudden we hear loud singing in the next room and the proprietor tells us that is the Annual Beauty Convention. The lyrics of their song, written by the great orator Rita Bors, mainly say: You can't be a success if you look a mess. As we are too tired to walk to the room, the proprietor tells us about the most famous people attending the convention. The most well-known is Marilyn Stopa. operator of Stopa's Beauty Salon. With her are her assistants Marilyn Walke and Bev Zietz, and secretary, Thomas Pittler. Also attending is Marilyn May, who models football uniforms manufactured by the great body builder, Pete Strickland. The only male attendant is Larry Human, the Brylcream salesman. The lecturers are: Gwen Gibbs, a hair dresser for cats and poodle dogsg Judi Lounsbury, a hair rinse manufacturerg and Ann Connors, a fashion artist. As this completes our tour of the Home, we file toward the exit. However, because we have been so good, Mr. Lyon says that we may use the special exit-being carried out in a silk and velvet padded casket ZF -ii' 1 g- -renal a
