Happy to hear about Ben

Back in 1960 just 1 year before

I first got tangled up with the

"Beatty Show" (my first circus

experience) I was Technical

Director for a chain of summer

tented musical theaters by the

name of "The Music Fairs" and

Phil Escalante (as mentioned in

the above program) was the boss

canvas man for all their tops

He and his wife Betty (who

later on worked for Bobby

Johnsen in concessions) also

had the concessions at the

Haddonfield NJ summer tent

His brother in law (Betty's

brother) Herbie Weber was on

the "Beatty Show" in the early

sixties with a low wire act and

a slide for life

It's all show biz
