Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1938-10-21

Hello folks:
This was one week of weeks, be-
ing Homecoming. The Homecoming
battle has come and gone and we
are still the proud pOssessOrs of the
Little Brown Jug. 1t was a swell
day for the game and what a game
it was. The Wolverines have a
great team and the game was too
close to cry over.
Lookin' in on the Homecoming
dance at the Minn.-Iowa Club last
Saturday eve. What a crowd
mean an enthusiastic one, too.
Everyone seemed extremely jubi-
liant over Minnesota's victory over
Michigan. The crowd was a mix
ture of the popular older set about
town and a great many of the
younger ones. Now, if Sal happens
to mention you with the wrong per-
son you just blame it on the "elec-
trio current" situation. You know
right in the middle of the dance a
fuse blew out and all lights and
everything went black. To make a
long story short, when the lights
went on there were many fellows
hugging supposedly protecting)
the wrong girl who, incidentally,
happened to be on the other side of
the room when the lights first went
off. Il heard one very popular boy
about town say, "Ah! shucks,"
when the lights came on again,
"that was the most exciting part
of the party's and-he wasn't
where he was supposed to be,
either. - ~. Fl
On the sidelines loOkin' on at the
dancers i noticed kthe MARTINI
BROWNS, the HOBART MITCH

the dOOrman of Intervening and a
mighty handsome dOOrman he did
make, didn't he? That
sparkle" couple, BERT SHAN
NON and DORIS COINS came
right in the middle of the party.
THOMAS Russell, out of town
student at the "U," was making
quite a hit with the gals, wasn't
he? Gee, amt it,tOo bad Thomas
is married? MARION ZEE
LEY, the Southern professor from
Alabama up here working on his
Ph.D., says he kinda likes the
Northern gals!!! What prOmi-
nent couple has parted ways?
Well, didn't you notice the male
half at the PATTY making terrific
gOO-gOO eyes at another gal about
town? (The main half of the
couple wasn't presently Oh! ]

his old tricks again. CHAR
LOTTE CRUMP seemed to be en-
jOying herself. AUGUST

time except he wished it wasn't sc

long towering feathers that stooC
up in the air. The gal looked as i
:. she had never been out before
cause she looked first to the right
then to the left and so on; and a
each movement of her head tn
towering feather would tickle he
sweet b. f. right in his face. Tn
! poor dear was really in agony, an,
honestly, the last l saw of him h
