J rophecy ly recognized political cartoonist. He had previously sent the newspaper several of his cartoons which had been immediately printed. Next I came upon a letter irom Gerald Slye. As head of the GS chain of grocery stores he wanted to know how he could keep all of his female employees from falling in love with him. It seemed that when he entered a store, all of the ladies, from the cashiers to the secretaries, would swoon in his presence. I quickly replied, suggesting that he change his shaving lotion. Jimmy Brinkley, organizer of HE-MAN SCENTS, LTD; had put a new shaving lotion on the market called Killer . Ever since it first came out, all the other brands were put out of business. Dr. Ann Spivey, the first woman head of Harvard ' s chemistry department, had submitted an article to be published in my paper entitled Einstein ' s Theory Simplified. I had also received a letter from the editor of LADIES HOME AND GARDENS, Carolyn Jones. In publishing this foremost woman ' s magazine, she tried to include interviews with famous women of the day. She wanted me to interview Dr. Spivey and find out how Harvard appealed to the feminine instinct. Glancing across the street, I noticed that a hugh bright neon sign was being erected. It read: WOOD ' S BEAUTY SALON-THE LATEST IN ORIENTAL FASHION. I called it tothe attention of my secretary and she explained that Nancy Wood, world famous hair stylist, had just returned from Japan where she had made a study of oriental hair-dos, and was opening a salon there on FifthAvenue. As I continued to gaze at the shop, a long limosine drew up and a minKed blond stepped out. I recognized her as none other than Bertha Bennett, the Blue Rain Shampoo Girl and Happy Day Tooth Paste Advertiser. On getting back to my letters, I found one postmarked Carr, Texas. It came from John Carr, a rancher in Texas who had become fabulously rich on discovering that under his ranch was a hugh oil vein. However, he had a serious problem. With his vast wealth and many business trans- actions he was in need of ten top-notch secretaries who were also young and beautiful. I re- commended that he contact Cheryl Weaver, head of the American National Secretarial School and one time World Champion Dictation Taker. She is known for the excellent and charming sec- retaries which come from her school. I suddenly remembered that I had neglected to look at the stock market report. I quickly turned to that section of the paper, and, since I have holdings in Camp and Galtress, I looked for it first. I was both astonished and happy to note that it had soared some twenty points in the past week. From reading the column of the top national economist, Pat Brock, I gathered that it was due to the discovery of new paper trees, cross-bred by the great forester and botanist Buddy Ballard. George Galtress, president of Galtress and Camp, had just bought ten thousand acres planted with the new trees. My next letter was from Vivian Jernigan and Betty Jean Lankford. Both had married wealthy prospectors but were quite upset at the moment. Their husbands were being transferred to the Antarctica on a mineral expedition and they wished to know whether it was safp to take their children to that cold region, what the educational facilities were, and whether mink is warmer than leopard (for choosing their fur coats). I wrote back and assured them that it was perfectly safe to take children to the Antarctica; leopard and mink are both very warm, and that the edu- cational facilities are marvelous. Jackie Whitley had just opened a private school there and was doing fine. Susan Story had been working with her, capturing penguins, polar bears and seals for the special zoo which is the first of its kind in the world. Jean Carr, too, had found the An- tarctica an excellent place to start a business. She had recently opened an exclusive bakery which specialized in Antarctic Baked Alaska”. Thumbing back through my letters of the day, I realized from what varied and talented in- dividuals they had come. I remembered the newspaper articles concerning people in all phases of world leadership. What a mark they had made on society, I mused. How proud those people who knew us at Windsor High School in 1964 would be! ! ! ! 21
