"To a real circus lover." said Montague, "there is no atmos phere, there is no real circus un less it's under canvas." The circus fans club has as one of its objectives keeping the tent circus alive. They picked Chicago for their current meeting because Cristiani Circus begins a 17-day stand today. It s under canvas and boasts a real tooting steam calliope. Among the milling club mem bers was a Catholic priest, "Fa ther Ed," graying and 60, who said he had been in love with cir cuses since his youth. k 7 :00 giTHIS SATURDAY ALL NIGHT!! features JJT 22J mm Come tavu Stan late Trooper Hook s Ar Requlor Prices! mm GUN BROTHERS Savagery...
