Carnival People Travel by Suitcase COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) Your life is carried in a suitcase that's thrown into the back of a truck when the show packs up and, moves on. The whirring and the clanking and calliope music stops until the next town when the midway's rebuilt and the cotton candy starts spinning. The people who run the? carnival, like the Jack Lindle Show that pulled into Columbia, recently, don't have an easy life. Home is whore you find it and for some, the rear 1 of a carnival van becomes a television room.

Jean Macom and Louise Perry and her children keep a running account of a soap opera. Sometimes accommodations are not that spacious. Howard Sauls, a roustabout who works on an Arizona ranch when not following the carnival trail, stretches out in the 1 front seat of his convertible on a sunny day. A good cigar and music from a tape player fills in one of his leisure hours. He runs a midway game.

But there's a show to put on and leisure living isn't what a carnival is about. A test ride of the giant slide is taken by a worker roustabout who just helped set it up. In a day or two the slide will be taken apart piece by piece for the tick to the next stop. And this particular day the down. But Tom Hall, the friend.

5 The teavemvorfh Thtws, Monday, July 15, 1974. ly merry-go-round mechanic fiom Memphis, had the all-time favorite ride back in operation after some hard, work. And that apparently is Just lino with the smiling carnival kids. Their smiles tell you they wouldn't trade the carnival life lor any other.
