Life is true, life is real, and the great

things you use to DO,
Will not always be hidden away IN

But will be revived in some distinct

And become a noted piece of art to

Of course, as days of yore, there will

Penn FavOrite

Bill "Papa" Penn, who for years
has frightened his opponents into
bleek submission merely by his ap-
pearance on the court, and who has
dominated the racket-wielders'
kingdom hereabouts for almost a
decade, is the Seeded No. 1 player
but in all probability will never see
the finals in this tournament-such
is the competition.
Jimmie Lee, who, by reason of
his sensational playing in this
years annual Phyllis Wheatley
tournament, is Seeded No. 2 play
er. His trouncing of Albert Allen,
Jr., was probably the greatest up
set of this tennis season. Should
his luck hold out he may prove the
nemesis to more than one aspirant
of tennis glory in this tournament.

Of Jimmie Lee this year is proof
enough that he is merely playing
on fading reputation. He will be
forced to pull something new out
of his bag of tennis tricks if he is
to get back in the good graces of
his former following.
Leo Bohanon, who will be TAX
ing his first bow since the tourna-
ment in 1884. always has the good
wishes of the gallery but his ex-
perience has proven to him that it
takes more than good wishes from
the gallery to beat Mr.. Penn.

Hats off to the neophytes Lott
and Strawder. Their brilliant vol
leying in this years tournament
took them far and landed them

ment. Although they are without
doubt the most unseasoned play
ers invited, they stand to block the
paths of more seasoned veterans;
they are the dark horses.
When the "volley and thunder"
starts Sunday morning, Mime

the following aggregation: Wood

be composed of Duglas, Penn,

MY interview this week is from
one of Minneapolis charming mar
ried women, MRS. TALMADGE B.
CAREY, wife of our prominent
deputy sheriff. Mrs. Carey is very
active. in church circles being a
member of st. Thomas Episcopal
church. 1 am sure you will enjoy
her interesting views on the fol-
lowing questions.
1. Where were you born? Ans.
Minneapolis, MINI.
g.. Who is the boss in your fam
lily? Ans. My husband. Anyway,
he thinks he is.
8. If a man is an Indifferent
type, do you think girl should
use leap year tactics to attract
him? Ans. Yes, 1 think all girls
have different ways of captivating
men. If a girl is reasonably sure
a man likes her she should use her
own idea of leap year tactics to
ripen the friendship.
A. What do you enjoy most in
life? Ans. I enjoy church work
and social service work.
S. Which season of the year do
you like best? Ans. / think fall
is the best season because you can
relax after the hot summer nights.
6. What's your favorite song?
Ans. Cocktails for Two"
z. Do you think a woman's place
is in the home, or wherever she
chooses to be? Ans. Not exactly,
if she chooses to work outside it's
all right, but I think the home
should come first. I think occupa-
ton outside of the home is good
for a wife.
8. Do you feel that the time
spent in raising family is quite
worthwhile? Ans. 1t depends upon
how the children turn out when
they are grown. Every mother
tries to do her best and hopes the
time is well spent in raising a fam
lily.
9. Who do you think will be the
next president of the U. S.? Ans.
Landon. -..-.
10. Who do you think is the
most outstanding man of our race
today? Ans. Jesse Owens and Joe
Louis.
II. If you had one wish, what
would it be? Ans. Well, to be
thoroughbred Christian and the
rest of your wishes will come true.
Never have I seen such a large
attendance at a public dance as
turned out at the st. Paul Coliseum

and entertainment was very differ
ent than that usually presented at
dances. The younger crowd

the crop on down. ESTYR

many people that it almost made
me sorta dizzy saying so many
how-di-does. It seems as if the
love spark between ANNETTE

being rekindled again. Isn't

GEORGE BERRY Sherlock
Holmes in disguise? With the
good clues he usually has it's a

day afternoon and found that a
letter from Dave Hall was here,
had been here, in fact, for two
weeks, but was misplaced. 1t was
a very newsy letter and contained
the following interesting tid-bits:
Andy Neal has acquired a nick
name for himself and the nick
name has taken the place of his
real name. Dave writes: "Most
people don't know who Andy Neal
is, but everybody knows The Jel-
ly Chats the nickname, s'help me).
He writes also that Esquire has
become the guide-book for the cam
pus men: Esquire has become the
guiding-book of the campus-you
should see the 'jokers' fighting
these plaids, Duke of Kent shirts,
and crepe-soled Shoes" Two new
dorms are going up to take care
of the increased enrolment and
the AKA gals are leading the So
rorities on the campus in scholar
ship. (Goody, goody.) James, one
of the nice lads who came through
here and picked Dave up when he
left for West Virginia, was elected
president of this years sophomore
class. Dave sez Jack Harpole's gal
down there is just dying to see
Jack and so Jack had better get
there for a visit some time soon.
He sez, too, to "hold Adolph Thorn
as in check" Evidently Dave
thinks Adolph is tearing 'em up
here in the Cities, Ell? I guess
Adolph is doin' fairly we'll at that.
p. S. Dave made Alpha Delta Sig
ma, the honorary scholastic So
ciety. Congrats!

spection for right of way of the
