EVANSVILLE: WHITE TIGER ACT
JUST HEARD FROM TRUDY, WADE BURCK WORKED THE NIGHT SHOW, DOING THE ENTIRE ACT.
HOWDY, MY NAME IS BILL STRONG, I'LL BE YOUR "24 HOUR MAN", ROUTING YOU INTO THE PAST TO SEE WHAT THE CIRCUS WAS IN DAYS GONE BY. IF YOU'RE LIKE ME, AND MISS WHAT IT USED TO BE, THEN COME ON ALONG AS WE GO DOWN THE ROAD FOLLOWING THE ARROWS BACKWARDS, TO "YESTERDAY'S TOWNS"! IF YOU HAVE CIRCUS RELATED PICTURES YOU WOULD LIKE POSTED, SEND THEM TO,,,,yesterday1@verizon.net,,,,AND WE WILL TRY TO FIT THEM IN. "24 HOUR MAN" WILL HAVE THE FINAL DECISION ON POSTING.
Three years at CWM made me a real traditionalist, and I keep remembering Bob Parkinson saying, "I want the people to see what the circus used to be, not what it is today. That's what this site is about!

Did Wade get full day pay or half day pay?
When we worked for John C. in Italy, the show stiffed him for the expenses from Munich to Naples & back, plus came up considerably short on salary, but Trudy & I got paid. I'll guaranty Wade got paid, & so did John.
I had an act tell me recently that this is the only date in his career, that gave him a tip when he got paid!
bill, why didn't Trudy step in and show the cats a thing or two? I am confident she could have handled it.
