THE PROPHECY OF THE SENIORS OF 1950 by Bettye Stevenson I will set my Looktowardthefuture” machine for May 19, 1970 ------ 20 years into tomorrow. It's coming into focus and stopping at ( of all places) a circus. The sign says ''Buford Burlison Circus, Freaks our Specialty . There :s Bill Buford now taking in the money. On the bill- board it says Step right up and see the amazing triple summersault per- formed by that daredevil of the trapeze Alma Tucker ,better known a s Fearless Hurky . What do you know about that? The needle is moving now to Madison Square Garden. It looks like Gernldean Anderson (better known to us as Gerrye Eubank). She has turn- ed professional and is now the Lady Wrestling Chanpeen of the World. That reminds me of Bill Roberts. I wonder what Punchy is doing 20 years from now. The needle is swinging to-------Texas---the Shamrock Hotel1 There's Bill the ex-deadweight champion of the world. He's now retired and (well, you might know you couldn't stop Bill) is now the knitting champion. He knits the prettiest dolliesl Now instead of say- ing Got away Boids he says Knit one, Poil Two . Not far from the Shanrock is a little beanery called The Ptomaine Hash House owned by Robert and June Nelson. The sign outside says Best Hash Slung For Miles . Look who's behind the counter, Dolores (Freck) Sparkman. Of course that bathing suit she has on might not be the con- ventional uniform for a waitress but I'll bet she sure draws the trade. The needle is swinging to Hollywood where we see the exquisite home of the famous actress that took over where Lana Turner left off, Sophia Gilstrip, better known as Sophia Gilstrap. Up the street is a one-block ranch owned by the western star, Earl blessing, seen on the screen as Lope-Along Blessing with his trick horse, Shotgun . Who in the world is that coming down the street? Bill Shaw with his 10, no 12,—15» children (my how time flies!). Poor zetta, I guess that she is at home washing diapers. Lets look into the television field and see if we've any celebrities there. Sure enough here's Bettye Jackson playing the roll of Ma Perkins on television. And Jim Timmons sings,I understand. It seems that he is known as Tiny Tim and his Guitar on TV. That looks like Jerry Reeves standing in front of that burlesque show. Well, I'll be, so 'tis. The billboard says Jerry's Burlesque Theater featuring Tyra Mona, the Bubble Dancer with the Breakable Bubble . It looks to me like Tyra Mona is none other than Billie Joyce Motley. Always knew that girl would amount to something. Let's turn the dial for Marrs shall we, for you see in 20 years the planet Marrs shall be inhabited by earth people or so says that amazing genius, that second Einstein, that creator of the soleless-heeless shoes without tops, Nelson Geyer.
