Miss Hatner
Versitility is the word
to use in describing Miss
Hatner. She was born in
New York, but was rais
ed in Titusville, Fla. and
has 5 1/2 years ex
perience as a Female Im
personator. Although she
is well known as the “Queen
of Comedy,” she can do just
as well with serous num
bers,. All of Hatners per
formances are “outrage
ously tremendous,” and
where she is working now,
(Showplace of the South)
Sweet Gum Head, you ne
ver know where she will
pop up next. Miss Hatner
really enjoys variety in
her job, and you can oc
casionally find her up there
disc jockeying the show,
waiting on tables or giving
you that “ Million Dollar
ISmile” as she mixes your
favorite drink at the bar.
Her wardrobe is original,
as one of her interests is
making her own gowns as
well as swimming. She holds
the Miss Hollywood title,
and Miss Keiths in Day
tona, she is a Virgo, and
her greatest ambition is to
“live a long life, getting
as much as you can out of
it.” She is proving that
this is true as very few
can keep the pace with
her.
Scaggnolia (The Great)
While interviewing Scag
gnolia the Great ( a very
controversial entertainer)
we learned much about the
art of Cosmic Makeup ap
plication. We sat and wat
ched an attractive male
transform himself into a
.caricature? of whatever
ne may have wanted to be.
Only Scaq himself under
stood, this. In his own -
words, he has said “I’m
a human cartoon, I’m still
unborn, I’m just on pa
per.”
Scaggnolia
A Leo, from New York,
he has 12 years experience
in the entertainment field,
and was Fashion Coordi
nator for the famous Edith
Head of Hollywood. He did
the fashions for the movies
Airport, and Sundance Kid,
including set decorations
for Paint Your Wagon. In
the Coronet Theatre, for
Mowise Productions, he
was the understudy for Mi
chael Greer in Fortunes
in Mens Eyes. Scags ta
lent is so superbly diff
erent, and he pantopiipes
so well that he has been com
pared to Kubuki Theatre
artistry. He has also done
! Creative Display and In
ferior Decoration, (includ
ing Ciros on Sunset B’lvd.
He is an artist and sculp
tor. After majoring in Art
at the University of Miami
for 2 years, he left to “do
his own thing,” “To be
exactly understood, com
plete understanding,” is his
greatest ambition. For
those of our readers who
have been wondering where
did he go? We have been
told that he is now trave
ling throughout London and
Paris, and will be perform
ing a private audience for
the Princess of Austria.
Scaggnolia has many loyal
fans and he knows this
so perhaps |ie will return
to us soon. If and when,
we will be the first to
welcome him back.

Wouldn’t this world be a
different place if we
began each day
With the thought of helping
someone
That we meet along the way?
If we set out with a little
prayer That through the day
we’d find a chance to leave
some sunshine and Some
happiness behind?
MONDAY
Is there someone you know
who’s lonely
And you haven’t seen for
a while?
Let them know that they’re
thought about
With a call, a word, or a
smile.
TUESDAY
Don’t neglect the chance
today
To do some kindly act
Or pay a little compliment
With thoughtfulness and tact.
