St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1938-01-28
HowdY folks:

far as social, civic and other ac-l
tivities were concerned. First OF
all, last Friday Halle Q. Brown
held its Annual Dinner of the year
1887. The meeting was very well
attended and all present seemed to-
be having a fine time. The pro-
gram ended with a short skit of
the Houses different activities.
Among the prominent st. Pauhtes
present were the Rev. and Mrs. M.
GIBSON of Welcome Hall Thy the
way, isn't Mrs. Gibson the sweetest
girl?), Mr.. and Mrs. L. P. MOORE,
ORRINGTON HALL, WARREN
GRISSOM and, of course, the Head
Worker, 1. MYRTLE GARDEN, and
loads of others. must say that
the table decorations were the cut
est I've seen in long time, apples
with candles in the middle. The
candle light lent very attractive
air to the affair.
Friday evening of the same day
the Milady Club of Minneapolis
gave one of the SWEETEST dances OF
the year at the Phyllis Wheatley.
Swell music, soft lights (spot-
lights occasionally, too), decora-
tons and, of course, the attractive
people present, all made the oc-
casion a success. ALICE ONQUE,
the club leader, was presented with
a lovely bouquet of flowers from
the club members. FRANKIE
WYCHE, just back from New
York, where she danced in a
swanky mite club, gave a unique
tap dance. Among the popular
club members present were IDA
TAYLOR, LUNA BROW N,
IRENE HARVEY, MAE STEW
ART, OSCAR GATES and ES-
THEIR DILLON. The club mem
bers and guests were really
dressed on down. l noticed quite
number of the girls were wearing
these yelled tiaras. :. Did you OBJ
serve the young lady chewing gum
near the door? She chewed so hard
that she bit her tongue and had to
go home during the middle of the
dance, and do you know what
caused such a tragic accident? Her
loveight entered the dance floor
with another girl. (Ain't love or
purple anger just too wonderfully
CLIFF FUCKER was dashing
round havin' a swell time.
The highlight of the week was
the basketball game and dance
given at the Phyllis Wheatley
House by the Sphinx Club and the
Phyllis Wheatley All-Stars. The
attendance at this affair was one
: of the largest ever present at a.
basketball game and dance. The
Sphinx and the All-Stars played a
real battle and the audience en-
joyed it every minute, especially
the girls. Il heard one popular
Minneapolis gal remark, "Gee,
amt it thrilling SEEM all your he
men and lovelights dashing round
on the gym foor?') While the
game was going on the spectators
had many a thrill. One herman
was seated on a ladder guarding
the door and some smart kid came
from behind the door, knocked lad
der, herman and all down to the
ground. It really sounded like the
crashing of huge BELL and boy,
was our hero ever hot. TIM
OTHY MILLS, EARL ONQUE,
CLIFF FUCKER, MARGE CAR
TER, HARRIET LANE, SAL and
CONKIE SMITH all had ball as
the cheer section for the Sphinx
Club. The Phyllis Wheatley ALL
Stars beat the Sphinx Club by a
small margin. At the dance
JUNE HAWKINS and T. M. were
having their usual good time.
"Why Deny That You Are N.Y.
Thrill of a Life Time" popular
song, seemed to hold the imelight
with the orchestra and the crowd
for the evening. s.. Did you no
tice D. P. giving D. C. those ador-
ing looks? Why was L. T.
sorta peeved at C. w. S.? -. !
S. C. is quite interested in what
party? And I noticed another
party with an M initial in his name
quite interested too. D. S. was
havin' quite a time holding on to
his "M". H. w. and D. M. were
giving each other those fervent
glances. (Ain't love just too
terrific y -. K. A. is still inter-
ested round about that certain st.
Paul party, isn't she? M. L. was
havin' time gettin' her man.
Did you know NJ M. slapped what
party cause he tried to kiss her?
They tell me M. was sorry after
wards cause she really wanted him |
