Hello, Folks:
By Helen NJ. Scott
Hello Folks:
Most of you probably had quite
a full" day on Thanksgiving, not
only in the way of eating but
activities too. A number of Twin
Citians started the afternoon off by
attending the Turkey Day Football
Classic between Phyllis Wheatley
House of Minneapolis and Halle
@. Brown House of St. Paul. The
game was quite an exciting one
with the score, a tie, 90. 1t was
lots of fun, in one respect, and
that is, we all had chance to see
(among the spectators) just what
some of our glamorous boys and
gals about town look like under I'M
favorable circumstances. You know,
it was quite a chilly day and the
cold wind played havoc with hair
dresses, etc. In fact, most every
one was dashing up and down the
field with blankets wrapped all
around themselves looking like old
squaws and Indian chiefs. d.
JOHN L. BANKS of st. Paul was
busy and contented as could be
taking pictures of various spec
tators (who all looked like icicles,
including myself). =. What Mpls.
lassie got so cold she lost her voice
and for the rest of the day had to
dash round town just a-whispering
(of course she goes in for whisper
ing anyway, so that didn't hurt).
:. DIR. ]. W. CRUMP was greet
ing and meeting friends in his
usual. genial manner. . Halle Q.
Browns Head Worker, MISS /.
MYRTLE GARDEN was confer
encing" with her coach, DWIGHT
REED. JIMMIE LEE, the man
who always makes everyone feel
at home, was dashing back and
forth in the stadium giving every
one the Hi, There" Among
the familiar faces seen at the game
were: LAWRENCE WRIGHT, Ell
VIRA LEWIS, MARIE ALLEN,
EDDIE WITHERS, JIMMIE GRIF-
FIN, RAY HATCHER and, of
course, the members of both the
football teams were creating quite
a number of heart attacks" among
the femmes present.
The next event that held the
spotlight on the Thanksgiving Day
schedule was the Mayor of BrOns-
Vile Inaugural Ball held at Eagles
Hall. DR.. w. D. BROWN was
elected the Mayor with JIMMIE
SLEMMONS, the former Mayor,
coming in second. FREDDIE

were among the dancers and did
Margaret ever look darling in a
sharp, blue turban and a matching
blue coat, trimmed in red fox. . O..
