Louderback was there real jolly, He told jokes, the happy soul, With B. Waronker he's playing In a burlesque comedy role. Wally Liggett, good old Wally, Has put flesh on with the years, He's advanced in all proportions- And his form moves one to tears. William Walsh and Sherrard, painters, Work with Wally, it is said, These three have at last succeeded Painting' Philadelphia RED. As I looked around the lobby, Robert Waronker was there, Representing life insurance, He was letting out some air. Harold Saxon, I saw him too, He's a multi-millionaire, 'Tis a fourteen-karat Stutz, in Which his daughters take the air. Saxon's wife wears quarts of diamonds, Pearls and such, rope after rope, For our Saxon manufactures Saxon's perforated soap. In the realm of great musicians Fil Fry's name first does appear, Rich, he spends and wastes his money, Even bought the gang some beer. 30

Going-going--going-G-O-N-E !- As an auctioneer he's famous, Georgie Sauber, old and worn. Selling tickets at the entrance Sat a meek and worn-out soul, Time has added many gray hairs To the head of Freddy Crowl. 29

W -Q' fs Marty Kremer in a dress suit Walked and strutted all aroun', Gave out cards, and then some seegars, Running for the Mayor of town. And our lean New Jersey sherif, Bauzenberger, too, was there- Van Dyke, long-tailed coat, and soft hat And with slightly graying hair. A. Abramovitz is written On a sign outside his store, Though at school he was no pitcher, Three balls hang above the door. Among those who run the Phillies There are some West Philly men, Manuel Steinberg is the Pres'dent, Allen Smith controls the pen. Even Congress sent its quota, Men whose fame had spread afar, Linton, Levergood and Sandberg Came de luxe in private car. Harold Baker came to meet us From the Burroughs College, where He's the President of Burroughs And the biggest man out there. Espenchade, with Sweet and Muller, You know, run the P. R. T., For they're leaders in their own line, Daily on Route 43. Andrew Lotz's picture Hares up In the trolleys spic and span, Andrew holds the unique job of Arrow collars' handsome man. 31
