FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1934
PERSONALITIES
By Nellie Dodson
What St. Paul Lothario is re
tracing his steps of a year ago to
the abode of a certain Fourth ave
nue gel? The ex-girl friend is
watching developments with inter
est. And is not surprised.
At the present writing (Tues
day) the Georgia Tech-Michigan
situation is still up in the air. The
Michigan students say WILLIS
WARD will play or there won’t be
any game, and that they will
gather on the gridiron and prevent
a single pigskin from flying if their
favorite isn’t in the lineup. KIPKE
won’t say much of anything.
Georgia Tech says they won’t play
if Ward does. And so what?
Yeah, and I walked smack bang
into a tree this morning because I
was so busy watching DWIGHT
REED cross the parade.
Well, girls, there are some quite
nice boys out on the campus this
fall quarter, but most of ’em keep
their heads buried in their books
and so haven’t branched out around
town yet. I never saw so many
studious folks in all my life! Even
I’m studying.
IVY LEAF girls will meet at
PEG BENJAMIN’S on Saturday
evening and formally welcome the
new girls on the campus. MAR
IONNE PEEBLES will arrange
the table fixin’s, MYRTLE WORM
LEY and ANNE FOSTER will see
to the invitations, BELLA LEE
has charge of entertainment.
Saw CHICK DAVIS hurrying
across the campus with his coat
flying open and hat perched at the
angle which is distinctly his own
idea of how a hat should be worn.
Chick has managed to acquire that
breezy, collegiate air that the
wealthy lads in fraternity row
flaunt so successfully. Very nice,
very nice.
My personal nomination for the
most bashful man around these
parts goes to CHARLES HOLLEY,
the Washington, D. C., boy. Or
maybe he’s not so bashful after
all, eh ?
What’s happened to the DIPLO
MATS? They seem to have be
come very quiet all of a sudden.
They must be planning something
which will startle the Cities. Or
at least we all hope so.
See you next week!
SEVENTH ANNUAL DANCE OF
THE CREDJAFAWN SOCIAL
CLUB
Each year since its organization,
the Credjafawn Social Club has en
tertained its friends at an annual
dance. This year the affair will
be held at Hallie Q. Brown House,
St. Paul, on Hallowe’en, Wednes
day, October 31. Music will be
furnished by one of the leading
young orchestras of the Twin
Cities, Babe Salter’s Creolians;
dancing will begin at 9 P. M. The
Credjafawn officers urge you to
come early and stay late and be
safe from the spooks and witches
that will be prowling about that
night.
Every effort is being made to
assure the patrons of having a
good time with the Credjafawns.
Admission will be 35 cents, so plan
now to make the Credjafawn Dance
at Hallie Q. Brown your Hal
lowe’en entertainment.
The Capital City Democratic
Club dance on Monday night was
largely attended. Many prominent
Democrats including John Regan,
candidate for governor, were pres
ent.

Merion Roseby, head coach, and Johnny Hauser, assistant, have
availed themselves of the best of the young material in selecting their
Midget team. The diminutives are playing their first year in city
league competition, and although so far have dropped two games, have
given a good account of themselves in each game.
So great was the response to Coach Roseby’s call for talent in the
beginning of the season that he found himself with enough material
for two teams, the second being not much weaker than the first.
In addition to the triple threat, Jr. Cotton, at quarterback,
he has Johnny Cyrus, Ed Smith and Andy Harrison in the backfield.
Donald Smith, Barney Duncan and Merele Collins hold the left side of
the line with Bobby Anderson, Arnold Foley and Warren Willard on
the right. Oliver Tankenhoff is at center.
Sunday, October 21, the Rondo Merchants will face off against
the undefeated Foreman-Clark eleven at Highland Park at 3 P. M. The
game will be the first for the Merchants this season while the Clarks
have won their two games to date.
Last Sunday, Scobey Wright took his team to Dunning Field for
a practice game. The opposition, however, failed to put in an appear
ance. Nothing daunted, Coaches Wright and Patrick sent their charges
through a stiff workout, including scrimmage, kicking and running.
Wright has acquired the services of Freddie Slemmons, former
Washington High School star and the spearhead of last year’s Hallie
Q. Brown eleven.
Slemmons is a shifty runner and an accurate blocker. His addition
gives the Merchants two complete backfield combinations.
For the first time in its history, Hallie Q. Brown Community Cen
ter is sponsoring two football teams in the Municipal League. The
Intermediates, with a 135 pound limit, have a classy aggregation, led
by the spectacular Pete Bu Ford.
Marion Boyd Patrick is coach, assisted by Al Harris. Patrick is
a former Mechanic Arts High School player, and Harris, besides hav
ing a brilliant three year record at Hallie Q. Brown, played at full
back for Washington High last season.
Besides Bu Ford, the Intermediates have at right end the versa
tile James James, who calls signals and plays halfback in his spare
moments. Left flank is cared for by Willard (Joker) Jones. Charlie
Blackburn, Laurence Collins and Matt Johnson are the tackles. Claude
Collins, Louis Bell and Tully Hickman make up a trio of able guards
with baby-face Charles Millsap playing at pivot position.
In the backfield, augmenting the hard-running quarterback, Bu
Ford, are Daniel (Buster Crow) Taylor, blocker; Lansett, right half;
Teddy Tankenhoff at fullback.
The goat had his day last Friday night as Central assassinated the
Presidents of Washington, 26-0. Up and down the sidelines, “Goat
keeper” Walter Robinson, red suit and all, nonchalantly herded his
charge.
Central’s new mascot certainly brought bad luck to Captain Robt.
Gardener and his palsie-walsies, for, besides the lop-sided score, several
of the boys were injured.

HALLIE Q. BROWN MIDGETS
Tiny Johnny Cotton, weight 70 pounds, plays fullback on
the second team. He is the smallest player in the league. “And
he hits ’em,” says Coach Roseby.
MERCHANTS TO PLAY FOREMAN-CLARK
And bye the bye, if you weren’t one of the handful who
watched the Merchants work out Sunday, you’ve a treat in store
when you see them. f
The boys trotted out in purple and gray jerseys, purple
socks and flashy, white headgears.
HALLIE Q. BROWN INTERMEDIATES
To date, the boys have dropped two games, the first to the
Gedney Pickles, 19-0, and the second to the Rice St. Merchants,
13-7. In the latter game, Bu Ford scored the touchdown.
