This is Red Copley, Dollye, & an unknown clown. Talked to "Uncle George",(you know he's not too fond of that nickname), and he said there were two Aerial Bar Acts the first 6 weeks, one was Georgie Voise, Red Copley, & himself, the other was Harold & Jack Voise, & Jim Olson.

can anybody tell me, who was the boss canvas guy on Clyde Beatty in 52? I mention him in my forthcoming book, Fall of the Big Top, and I'd love to have his name. I recall he was well dressed, even with tie? Maybe in his '30s, he stressed the importance of always getting the tent up as soon as possible, due to unexpected weather.
