Almost About
Everything
By Barty Villa
Please bear with us just in case I’m out of line. You see, I’m
writing this piece late Wednesday night about 24 hours before the
Beau Jack-Del Flanagan fight. But I'm going to do some guess work
that may or may not hit the spot
I'm asking some impertinent questions about
Thursday night’s main event. Why didn't the daily
press announce that Beau Jack was just fighting
on his past reputation? Or why wasn't It mentioned
that he’s unable to get a fight in New York and
that the newspapers won't stand for his fighting
there again?
As you most likely noticed, the fight at
tendance wasn’t anywhere near the Graves
Flanagan fight last month. Couldn't It be br
because the prices were out of line (96.00 for
•*. '■’bi
ringside seats) T
I didn't get the chance to watch Beau Jack In hia boxing at the
gymnaaium Tuesday afternoon but from what Frank Diamond, who
does the publicity and My Sullivan, the one time classy middleweight,
tells me, Beau Jack was exceptionally Impressive In his boxing
Tuesday. But when I asked them If they were to make a wager on
the outcome who would they pick ? Neither of them gave Beau Jack
a chance to beat Flanagan.
As for my prediction on the fight, I tabbed Flanagan to win for
the above reasons.
NOBODY ASK ID Mi, BUTt . . .
My Best guess Is that Wayne (most valuable player on the Min
nesota team) Robinson will be selected the next football captain.
I like the way John Simmons puts It: “People should not call the
refugees from Europe Displaced Persons, but Delayed Pilgrims."
I never get a book back to the library without paying a fine.
Insurance: The wrestling girls are coming back Tuesday night at
the Auditorium.
Aiuiabell tells me that Dave Garroway who has a T. V. program
‘must’ be related to his sponsor.
Judge D. E. Laßelle tells me that "people wouldn't be divorced
for such trivial reasons, if they didn’t get married fof such trivial
reasons.”
The way food prices are going up, the book "The Egg and I"
should sell for IS.
Beer drinkers put most of the nickels In bar-room Juke boxes.
The Charlea-Oma fight last week did more harm to boxing than
television.
The best song hit for the coming weeks Is: “You’re Just In Love”
by Perry Como.
I don't get most of the remarks that provoke belly laughs on the
A. Godfrey radio shows.
It Is almost safe to say that a cheating husband has hla wife's
picture in his wallet.
The best fight of the year will be between Sugar Ray Robinson
and Jake LaMotta, St. Valentines day In Chicago.
Gabby Women are usually the most Intelligent.
I was greatly impressed with John Simmon’s (every Friday night
on WDGY 0:46) first broadcast last week.
As things look today. Mayor Hoyer la the clos
est thing to a cinch in the June elections.
Flattery doesn't mean a thing But when a
son insults you. at least you know he s sincere
Last night's fights again proves Jackie GravesHHH'fflß
can draw more people at the Auditorium than
other fighter in the country. ■" Afe
Women who shriek the loudest at fights are P? ,
over 30; In wrestling they are under 30.
The main trouble In finding a coach for the “
University is that you can't find a good coach today „■$
for the prices that were being offered 10 years ago.
Women who get drunk publicly ought to be on Hoyer
the pay-roll of the Anti-Saloon League.
Whenever I get my watch fixed I figure the Jeweler la gyplng
Radio commentators who ask for snow should be forced to
shovel it
The politest people become rude when they’re Christmas shop

The movies made the dark blue shirt the symbol of the under
world, but I never have known a racket guy who wore one.

GOOD MOM fVIL
By WI ilium Henry Huff
Sometimes it looks as if some
good
Comes rolling out of evil
And there are those who think
it should
Where there’s a great upheaval
They say the mighty ocean waves
We know are fraught with danger
Do not always make wat’ry
graves.
But oft’ do something stranger—
One time a crew that lost its
oar
Was on the ocean crying
When swelling waves swept them
to shore
The evil side defying.

Weekly Review
BY GEORGIA RUHBELL DOTY
Looking for a job? No, I’m not in the employment agency bus
iness. I Just have a few facts I would like to get over to you. Now
if office work is your specialty, tnat is, of course, if you are a high
school graduate. I know of quite a few openings. The city, state
and county are fairly crying for clerks, typists, and stenographers.
Yet, only a very few of us answer this plea. It’s really so simple to
get these jobs . . . just call civil service . . . have an application
blank sent to your home . . . you will be notified when a test is
given . . . you are requested for an interview and presto, you have
a Job. Some people remind me of the man who was so sour and mean
that he hadn’t kissed his wife in twenty years, then killed the man
who did . . . Those are the people who have every opportunity in
front of them and don’t take advantage of any . . . but let someone
else try . . . and brother . . . you have a struggle on your hands.
Now, Luella Mclntosh is one smart girl . . . she has been em
ployed by the state for almost three, and is up for a supervisor’s
job . . . Marianne Curry is clerk for the highway department . . .
Rosie Johnson is studying nursing at St. Catherine’s College.
All of these, Just to mention a few, are paling their way for
the future . . . working side by side with fellow races, making
friends, and understanding each other . . .
Music has its charm, so thinks "Mickle” as he woos all the ladies
every Saturday night at the St. Paul Elks with his saxaphone . . .
Every week its someone different who has captured hi 3 heart . . .
and "intoxicated him with their breathless beauty” . . . Belated birth
day greetings go to Albertine Combs who celebrated her birthday
last Saturday . . . T'was heard by way of the grapevine that Verlene
Price is planning on leaving for Washington, where she will take a
secretarial job with the government ... If this keeps up all the
single girls will be in Washington and all the fellows in service . . .
Paul Ray and Donald Russell leave on the 22nd of this month for
military service . . . also Gene Harris was honored by a going away
party at the Hallie Q. Brown house given by the Big Ten Club of
which he was a member. Gene is leaving for Camp Rucker. Alabama.
A few of the guests who helped him celebrate were Joe Ray. Her
shell Garrett, Pat Brown, and Rosie Mae Johnson . . . The club gave
him a shaving set as a going away present. Little Lee Ora Meyers
was on radio station KSTP last Sunday on Father Gale’s
Radio Quiz and walked off with first prize . . . Lee Ora represented
St. Peter Cl avers Church. Adele Meyers, mother of Lee Ora, was
dressed in a very stunning black, Jeweled neckline, draped dress with
a silver fox coat and blaik satin shoes . . . looking absolutely sophis
ticated.
Jackie Jackman, son of Mrs. Irene Jackman, is reported in In
chon, Korea, aboard the U.S.S. Repose as pharmacist mate . . . Mrs.
Roosevelt McCarty entertained a group of ladies in her home last
Saturday in honor of Lindsey Boze of Chicago. Mrs. Boze is a cousin
of Mr. McCarty. The guest list included . . . Mercedes McGowan,
Martha Clemmons, Mildred Munn, and Fastina Robinson . . . Mrs.
Milligan is still just bubbling over with tales of her adventurous trip
south. After a three years absence, she decided it was time she vis
ited her mother and relatives in Selma. Alabama, and did just that
... A wonderful two weeks was enjoyed with her family which
came from different cities to hold a family reunion for her. Then she
and her husband motored to Memphis, Term, for a short stop; then
on to St. Louis, Missouri, where the weather was way up in the
seventies . .. . my, what a contrast to our old home state. . . The
last stop was Kansas City, Kansas, where they visited with Mrs.
Milligan's cousin. Except for a slight sleet storm, the trip was fine.
Have you ever met a person who went all out to impress you
with their wit and words and do just the opposite. I had such an
opportunity, much to my sorrow. The whole conversation was a
battle of long words and deep subjects . . . This certain young lady
was going all out to prove just how smart and sophisticated she was
... I personally know of ten courses she started at the U only to
last one week at the most. But to hear her talk you would think she
holds a degree In all ten courses. I find that nothing is more stimu
lating than a good wholesome conversation . . . where both speakers
are at ease . . . instead of in a strain trying to impress people . . .
But maybe I’m wrong.
This was a pretty quiet weekend for everyone . . . with every
one saving their energy for the dance on the 27th ... my deepest
sympathy goes out to the parents of Ardis Propps and Louise Ellis
who met with a very unfortunate accident ... I was very glad to
know that Nelson Ballenger Sr., is on the road to recovery after a
brief illness . . .
That’s all for now . . . See you next week . . . same place . . .
