--------------------------------------------------------------------- PAGE 14 SHANGRI-LA --------------------------------------------------------------------- MARSIE HITS L.A. by Bill Crawford "Hello, there, Science-Fiction Fan, I'm sure glad to know you. How's everything on Mars?" "So you still want to meet the members of the LASFS, whose meetings you've listened in so often, ... OKay, Fella, but I'm certainly glad you have made yourself invisible. From what you've told me about yourself, I'd hate like the devil to have he Los Angelenos see you --- no offence, of course. The same thing will be true when I go back to Mars with you, you know......." "Well, come on, then, let's get started. It's a quarter of seven. We'll have to walk to the corner of Figueroa .... Ah, here we are .... and there comes our car. Careful, now, don't brush against anyone.... You take the seat next to the window. I'll sit on the outside.... "This is Ninth street, you know. We transfer on Broadway. "Say, lady, can't you see this seat is taken....What do I mean taken Well cr-, ch.... All right then, I'm crazy. Ta - ta..... Come on Fella, let's get out of here before then cantankerous old dame glares a hole through me. I think we'd better walk up Broadway." "You say that you are disappointed in Los Angeles. Well, so was I, but don't let it get you down. Wait till you see New York...." "Here we are in front of Clifton's. Now, for gosh sake, watch your step. I'd hate to wind up in Norwalk.... Stay as close tome as possible while I get my dinner.... Be careful. That lady behind you must have bumped you, she acts as though she'd seen a ghost. I think I'd better get a pass instead. I can order later.... Ah, thank gosh that, is over.... OKay, I'll help you up those steps, but if they take me a-pretty tough on you, though, isn't it?" "Look at that fool staring at me.... Too bad I didn't wear basketball togs...." "At last, Fella, the Little Brown Room! Tarry here a moment and I'll point out the members before we go in...."
