BACK STAGE
• Looked in on the Elk's Freeman
Greene, Sonny Stout's Night in the
Dug Out. It was a great affair, but
where was Freeman Greene and
Sonny Stout?
• Speaking of the Elks, don't miss
the Smoker, March 10th. Ask any
Elk about it.
• Were you present at the Lincoln
Memorial School Sunday? It was the
NON-PARTISAN'S kick-off — and
what a kick-off it was I Sonny Stout
(Call me Edgar Bergen) was slay
ing them with his usual line. Tom
Murphy (Call me Charlie McCarthy)
was sitting on Edgar Bergen's lap.
Oh yes, here is the Non-Partisan
Slate for Trustees: U. Turner, Sr.,
Leo Marsh (I was defeated last time)
and Zip Johnson.
• Will someone tell us why Zip
Johnson is not on Bowman's milk
truck? Get fired, Zip?
• Speaking on politics we will
cover the other parties in a later
issue.
• Dig this one! James (I own a
Pontiac) was playing last Sunday
out to Tom McGill's when in comes
a prominent 139th street business
man with wifey! Oh Boy! 139th St.
wanted to fight, but it was leaving
time then.
• Chris Washington (I own a gas
station) draws more money from
the village hall than anyone else,
so they say. He even carries a
clock in his back pocket that turns
the water on and off in Robbins.
Ask Chris all about it.
• If you don't want it told, don't
do it. i
• Paul Cochran (I am the president
of Robbins Celebration Week) has
not been seen around the night
spots recently—guess he is quite
busy making plans for the celebra
tion.
• Bill Rechord has been seen on
Robbins Avenue quite frequently,
can it be that he has some new
interest?
• Mrs. Bertha Hendricks (I am Rob
bins Chairman of the National Red
Cross) attended the kick-off party,
February 27th, 1951. Let's all get
behind her and help her to make
her goal in the 1951 Red Cross
Fund Drive!
