Beatty show in the 60s but got to

see him several times years later

when in semi retirement he was a

lead stagehand in San Antonio at

the magnificent Majestic Theater

He lived in New Braunfels which

is located just North of town

clipping was from 44 & I believe

he was still working the bears

throught most of the 70s

I would imagine Jimmy Hall would
