School's Out-Circus, with No Posters, Parade or Tent, Comes to Town
1311 BU, India - Indian entertainers stage a circus to amuse fun-hungry GI's, under Red
Cross guidance. At left, Mary Pearce, RC gal, scrambles aboard with mahout and GI's for an elephant ride. Center, "The
Great Snafuga" performs, pretty well, too, to judge from the number of GI's populating his "ring." ('Tis said that a
crew chief, no doubt rotation-ripe, attempted to emulate this pot-on-the-head rope walk, later in the afternoon and
logged some flying time between rope and ground.) Right, Snafuga goes up on the bamboo pole for the afternoon's most
popular act (No imitators of this one were reported.)
