Walt Moymihan Sings Golden
GObhers Praise i'm MiIu,QMkee

Walt Moynihan, Of Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, one Of Sank Centre high
schools best all around athletes in
the years just prior to 1927 and lat
er one of the standout golfers In
central Minnesota, told the Mil
waukee Journal in an interview his
views on Minnesota football great
ness and labeled himself still an
ardent Gopher fan. Walt Is the
son Of DR.. and Mrs. A. F. Moyni-
han, of this city.
The interview appears In the
sports column ION the Sidelines"
by Lloyd Larson who said of Walt,
Zone Of Milwaukee districts bet
ter golfers, he is first Of all foot
ball fan. Like all natives Of the
Gopher state, he has one real fav-
|orite, Minnesota"
Walt is quoted as saying: "Fav-
orable location means a lot to Min
nesota. Boys in Minneapolis and
st. Paul in particular grow up in
football atmosphere. They start
looking ahead when they're only
grade school kids. BY the time
they reach high school they are
more advanced than the average
boy at that stage Of development
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1941-11-06

High schools in the Twin Cities
area emphasize football much more
than they do around here. Coaches
benefit by proximity to the univer-
sity and that very emphasis. As a
result, they appear to have some
thing on the men around here who
are teachers first and coach as a
sideline.
"Year in and year out, It Is my
opinion that high school teams
around Milwaukee can't touch the
Twin Cities, the best feeding
grounds for Minnesota. Much the
same situation prevails throughout
the state. Minnesota, the only large
school in that territory, is the goal
Of practically everyone. The build
up is perfect"
Larson goes on to assent that
Moynihan isn't talking through
his hat" He points to the fact
that in Minneapolis on Saturdays
young fellows not more than or
9 years old play make believe foot
ball along the streets. "They have
football in their blood" he agreed
with Walt, land some day those
youngsters are very likely to bios
som into stardom."

Texas and Vermont.
The "home" Of Thanksgiving,
Massachusetts,, decided to break
with tradition this year, and cele-
brate November 20 ain the inter-
ests of national unity"
The nation will cease giving its
thanks In two installments after
this year, however, since President
Roosevelt announced he likely will
go back to the traditional last
Thursday next November.
He said business benefits antici-
pated from spreading the Thanks
giving and Christmas holidays an
extra week have not materialized
Regardless Of when you eat your
turkey this year, 1t probably will
hit you a little harder than last
year-in the pocketbook.
A recent survey of market sta
tistics indicates turkeys may be
about cents a pound higher this
year than last, despite the fact gov.
eminent census figures show more
birds available for market.
Minnesota should break better
than even on the Thanksgiving
give and take" however, even
though the states turkey eaters
have to pay those extra few cents
a pound.
One of the three leading tur.
key raising states, Minnesota, will
market more than 100000 birds
this year, so that the take" viii
more than compensate for the ex
! ira "give."
