December 26, 1958. – Elvis Presley visits Holiday on Ice show in Frankfurt, Germany.

Elvis attended the Holiday On Ice Revue in Frankfurt. After the event, he visited the ice skaters in the dressing rooms. Thanks to the moderate audience that he can track the event in the spectator area.

‘Elvis is a warm hearted and thoughtful young man. He came bounding out of the front door of his home looking handsome in a dark suit and a white shirt. He kissed the girls on the cheeks and they stood like rag dolls vowing to never wash their faces again. He shook hands and thanked us for bringing the children to see him’.

Mrs. Davis says the children are deaf but not mute, and that some even have partial hearing. Contrary to popular notion, deaf children love music. They feel the vibrations and even dance in their stocking feet to feel the vibration of the music more keenly. Last year the Davis family donated a juke box and several albumsl.
