A number of baseball fans are
planning to attend the baseball
game between the Chicago Brown
BOmbers and the Original House OF
David which is being held this
week at the Lexington park in St

games and motoring up to the diff,
ferent resorts, l guess most of Oul
Twin Citians will find something
to do this week. :. Heard some OF
our local lassies of the twenty.
year-Old age group (and on up)
talking about their sad plight-yOu
know, not having many of their
own age group of boys left to GO
around with Incidentally, they
were remarking about how lucky
the 16, II and 1S-year-Old lassies
are since their age group of boys
haven't been touched by the war
AS YET. -. Quite a few members
of the younger set were seen out
at Kings Valley last Sunday,
Among them were BARBARA
MALLORY, MARY ANN TERRY,
LOUIS CASON, "BUZZIE'
BROWN, and DICK CURTIS. The
Valley is always a popular spot for
all forms of recreation, and that
charming couple, MR.. and MRS.
KING KENNEDY, the prOprietors,
are tops" when it comes to seeing
that their patrons always have a
too fine time.

A DOUBLE "V'' VICTORY:
Our heroine this week is a St.
Paul lassie who is in love with one
of our well-nOwn Minneapolis fell
lows. He was drafted a number of
months ago and this sort of put a
damper on this couples future
marital plans (Which were one
sided anyway-On the girls side),
Anyway, the drafting of this lad
did not in any way stop our lassie
from making her plans, for it seems
she's been chasing him all over the
country and following him from
camp to camp trying to get him to

chasing has been going on now for
quite some time and she has al.
