FIRST WORLD WAR DAY-BYDAY

20 Years Ago Today-The United
States made formal protest to Great
Britain against the "blacklisting" of
certain firms and individuals.
The black list was issued July Is. 1t
had the names of approximately so
concerns in the u. S. with which
British subjects were instructed not
to trade 1t was alleged they were
German sympathizers. British sub
iects were ordered not to carry the
goods of such firms in their vessels.
Neutral shipping interests were
warned not to do so on penalty of
being denied coal at British ports.
Neutral bankers were frightened into
refusing credit to these concerns.
mo move of greater economic in
terests of the United States" says C.
Hartley Grattan in his excellent
why We Fought"
The cumulative annoyance with
British assumptions and presump-
tiOns came to a head on this meas
ure. The New York ines said edi-
torially Quote the most tactless and
unnecessary act of the British gov
eminent during the war -. The first
thing to be said is that Americans
do not derive their right to trade
from the consent of the British gov
eminent"

AROUND THE TOWN
With Mary Gabbler

Hi, there Tootsies. Now, don't get
alarmed, am not coming up to see
you. I am just Mary Gabbler, the
Twin City Herald's new columnist.
After modulating around town to-
gether for while, We'll be great
chums. Well be taking the omnibus
from one center of attraction to an
other place of amusement, and hav-
ing time of our life, laughing,
dancing, and even taking time out
for sanity gossip.
Going around town we might stop
at the Majestic Drugs, and refresh
ourselves at the soda fountain. What
will yours be-? And mine? I guess
it will be delightful pineapple
sundae. How about dropping in at
the Beaux Arts? It's a new spot in
st. Paul, beautiful and artistically
furnished and decorated. We can hear
the latest song hits and dance num-
bers by the outstanding orchestras
there. We can sit and dream of the
good times we once have had. Just a
tip to the young ones, when you
want to be alone with just the one
you love, it's the place to go.
Twin-City herald. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1927-1940, 1936-10-31

Let's 60 to the Dunbar for som,
delicious barbecue, and in the mean
time we can see what everyone i!
doing for excitement. AS we lool
around it seems everyone is 6
swinging Mr.. Charlie" everybody is
in laughing, gleeful mood.
How about a change of atmos.
phere? Jumping in our car We'll take
a trip to Little Harlem Inn. Now is
the time for a real refreshment
something cooling to the lips.
Nothing much seems to be stirring
here. I guess everyone has mosied
elsewhere.
Do you think they could have
stopped at Martins Castle Inn? Well,
it won't take long to find out it's
just around the corner. Just look at
the folks, and boy for a gala time
their having. Just as we enter we
hear the refrains of There Goes
My Attraction" Gee, it looks as
though we're going to have to join
a group of friends at this table. Of
course, we really don't mind, do we :?
After all our cordial welcomes, we
drink our toast to each other for
happiness.
Somebody takes glance at the
clock. Time is creeping by. What do
you say if we round up at Jim's Gar
den? The other group that joined
us, has set their palates for one OF
Jim's fried chicken sandwiches. Boy,
they are a real treat. We've got
loads of time, we won't mind if we
drop by.
Upon entering someone's nostrils or
smellers happened to hit a Tom Col
Inns. So that was what we all had.
We're not very hungry now. A
bit later We'll drive by Mammys
Chicken Shack and get a chicken
speciality.
Oh, you can't be leaving us SO
soon? If you must, everything IS
well, if we'll be seeing you very soon.
Goodbye, then.
Say, by the way, we've had one
gala time going around town with
you.
Thanks, Tootsies.
Next week We'll be with the crowd,
you know.
Cheerio, and be good. If you can't
be good, just be the best that you
can.

One of the important offices to be
filled in the coming election is that

SPORTS
By Bob Anderson, Jr.

Hello folks!
The Twin City sports world has
mounted to new high. With the
close of the football season close at
hand, we face new issue, basketball.
The Welcome Hall Renesans are
tied for first place, with the Margaret
Merchants. Halle @. Brown has lost
one game and tied one. Both teams
have fought admirably and should
receive loud commentator from the
public.
The Halle Q. Brown ends are play
ing a very good game of football
this year and show very promis-
ing foresight. Maurice Bellany and
Bob Jones are the outstanding play
ing ends in my estimation. They are
in on almost all plays, with good
hard driving we all like to see. From
end to fullback we find a new hard
driving fullback in Cleveland Ray,
who with hard driving and good
blocking from his team mates
plowed his way to the limeIight last
Saturday.
Being lineman, naturally we will
give a good hand to those hardy
men on the line, who with driving
consistency have helped to carry out
the well formed plays.
The Renesans having faced their
hardest team in this league, tied the
game, which puts them in first place
with the Margaret Merchants.
Spectacular tackling and blocking
was shown by the members. In their
teams limelight 1 would place the
littlest man on their team, Donald
Vassar, who has the making of a
great all-around athlete. He was in
on all plays that his little arms
could reach. With his SO pounds of
driving muscle he spilled the Mer-
chants Il guess 100 pound fullback
for a loss of about five yards. Not
to be outdone is Perry MCGEE, tackle,
who has shown what he can do with
that short, but powerful body of his.
How many of the ladies of ST..
Paul turned out for that thrilling
game called basketball, at Halle @.
Brown?
A homecoming is planned for Sat-
urday at both Halle @. Brown and
Welcome Hall. Be sure and be one
of them to dine and dance, gratis!
Saturday night Homecoming fete
will be given at the Welcome Hall
Fairgrounds on Rondo and Western,
at 800 o'clock, beginning with a
big bonfire and ending at the Hall
with big dance
I'll be seeing you around.
Bob.

er than usual. it was stated, repre-
senting a substantial decrease for the
