OFF SUBJECT, but no less another anniversary:
At 2:30 pm, at the time he would have been announced for his act in the matinee, Clyde Beatty died at age 62 on this date, 42 years ago, in 1965, of cancer, at Community Memorial Hospital, in Ventura, California. He was interred out of the Church of the Hills, Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills, California, on July 22, and rests beside his wife, Jane, and his in-laws, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Curran, in Forest Lawn's mausoleum, Courts of Remembrance.
