WHEN 1T RAINS.
It's raining today. and if I were a
kid and lived back home in Carthage,
No 1 would call in Fred Beneke and
Jack Plat and we would go down in
the basement by the furnace and play
show;
And we would decide before making
the arrangements for the stage equip
ment and how much we'd charge to
get a seat or stand up, and 1 believe
we would make the admission five
pins-and two more to sit down on a
soap box or broken rocker;
And then we'd hike UP in the attc
and take possession of the old clothes
ND hat oy7d 0ff hiV7o Z n ot
might be used by the actors and then
we'd get a clean sheet and a long
string and some safety pins and stretch
the string across the basement and
hang the sheet upon the string so il
would slide;
, And then we would begin rehearsals
. for the big show. and because it was
held in my house I was allowed to be
leading man and everything'd go fine
until 1 saw that Fred Beneke wa:
going to make a bigger hit than the
leading man because he stuffed q. bis
pillow in my fathers pants:
And so 1 got peeved and the show
broke up, but it didn't matter, because
the sun came out and we all wen
swimming, and 1 guess that will be
about all. n, A.
