Party Honoring Mr..
and Mrs. r. Taylor

Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Taylor
were guests of honor Thursday eve
ming at dessert bridge constitut-
ing one OF the most delightful
parties of this fall season.
The hostesses were Mrs. j. M.
Hines and Mrs. A. D. Tyler ait the
j. M. Hines home, which was deco
rated in a very artistic and novel
manner. Chrysanthemums were
the flower decorations, and the
colors of natures autumnal garb
in harmonious blendings were used
to bring the pervading atmosphere
OF autumn woods bountiful har-
vests, and the kindred associa-
lions of the original thanksgiving.
Pumpkin shell coaches, piled high
with golden fruit topped with
splashes of silver and drawn by
miniature turkeys in full feather
were some of the striking features
of the decorations.
A mirth provoking innovation
was a turkey hunt by the men,
each of whom was required to find
a hidden miniature turkey on which
appeared the name of his first
partner for the evening. A prize
was promised to the man captur-
ing the largest turkey and this
was awarded ito Parke Soule
whose prowess was beyond ques-
ton when he offered in evidence
the result of his hunt.
Besides the guests of honor Mr..
and Mrs. Robert Taylor there
were present: DR.. and Mrs. G. B
Steward DR.. and Mrs. B. L.
Steward; Messers and Mesdames
N. G. Murray; R. J. Jones; Phil
Claridge; Fred Slater; Rodney
Ellsberry; Martin Talla; Hugh Mil
Ter; Parke Soule; Jack Steward.
A guest prize was awarded to
Mrs. Robert Taylor; prize for high
score went to Mr.. and Mrs. Jack
Steward; and a prize for the score
most nearly corresponding to the
date of the first thanksgiving cele-
brated by the Pilgrims to Mrs. M.
L. Talla.

Remarks Of Hon.
j. r. Murdock

Mr.. Murdoch of Arizona. Mr
Speaker, when the second World
War broke out in Europe some
weeks ago, alarming millions OF
people throughout the earth. l cast
about in my own mind to see
what appeared to be the best
course. both in general and in de-
tail, for this country to follow. in
view of all the circumstances. At
that moment | was attending a
State American Legion convention
at Tucson, Ariz. The news of the
declaration of war was only a few
hours old; the Legionnaires were
singing many of the old songs Of
the earlier struggle. | gave them
my feeling that the emphasis
should be shifted from "over there"
10 over here" That night in their
closing function / reminded ban
Cuet guests and radio audience
that our thought twenty-odd years
ago was
Over there, over there.
We're going over.
And we won't come back
Till it's over, over there.
Regardless of how well or how
poorly we performed that task
then. our thought today, in my
opinion, should be:
Over here, over here,
We're staying over,
And we won't stop work
Till it's over, over here.
The two devastating wars we
have had during the past quarter
ccntury-the military war Of 1914
Is and the economic war of 1929
S9-have left US forty-odd-million
dollars in debt as a nation and
with only a partial victory won. 1t
must, indeed, be a most imperative
military need to take us "over
there" and thus force us to aban-
don and lose the economic strug
gle "over here"

Dixie Howell Heads
For Another "Bowl"

Dixie Howell, the football mind
ed Alabaman with the Bowl
complex, waltzed his Arizona State
Teachers College at Tempe Bull
dogs into the Border conference
championship and the right to
represent this district of the ex-
pansive West in the annual Sun
Bowl game at Ell Paso on New
Years Day.
Dixie has a glorious love for the
Bowls, for he opened the year 1885
for the nation by thrillingly pitch
ing Alabama's Crimson Tide to a
victory over Stanford in the Rose
Bowl. That came after he rode to
nil-American fame on the stirring
accuracy of his passing arm, his
fleetness afoot and his punting
skill.
Now the story is told out here
in the Southwest how Dixie has
transferred that adeptness on the
green grass to a small squad of
cowboys and country boys in this
faSt-growing college
By speed, alertness and down
right skill the Arizona team has
Won eight of nine collegiate games
and stands undefeated at the head
OF the Border conference with four
clear-cut victories.
Saturday night Howell's Maroon
Tphoon took only three minutes to
whip the University of New MeM-
co Lobos. Wayne (Rip) Pitts, Ari-
zona candidate for All-American
crashed over the goal line
and then kicked his 18th extra
point of the year to hang up a.
lead the Lobos could not overcome.
Pitts has scored So points.
