er and when 1 returned, he was all
the other way. He got to the place
where he would not give me much
money and at times he would talk
mean to me. He says he loves me
and 1 love him. He claims that he
wants me and doesn't want to
wreck my life. What must I do?
Ans: Living apart as you two
are doing now is no way to work
out this problem. Both of you adj
nit your love for each other but yet
you refuse to bury the Ratchet and
make up. Go back to him and your
home and make an effort to bring
about the harmony that existed
between you two before you left.
The trip you made was necessary
and the right thing to do but some
husbands just can't seem to share
their wife with her family regard
less of circumstances. It is best
that you do not refer to this expert
ence in your conversation as it
would just cause friction.

Most of you hepsters realize that
a column such as mine is not to
scandalize any one, unless the par
ty wishes it so. 1t is to let you
know of the many different things
going on and SO forth, but 1 know
a certain little girl that writes a
column called "Screen and Scat
ter" No, it's "Scrappy Patter";
oh, yes, it's "Time Age latter"
1 haven't looked on the back page
in so long 1 really have forgotten;
any way, from what 1 hear, she is
beginning to scandalize cats that
do not want no scandal; hint, hint!
So whosoevereth writeth that scan
dial sheet, should and no doubt will
get on the ball.
There was going-away party
for one of the sharpest cats in
town, Eddie Milton, who left for
the Army Tuesday, and 1 know
hearts were sad. Some of the trails
that were there and coming on
strong, were Helen Peoples, Leola
Graham and Janet Armstrong.
Some more chicks known about the
town were there: Betty Lewis,
Myra McAdams and Willie Brown.
It was a fine day for a party, and
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1945-07-20

it looked like rain. Saw Frances
Morris and that fine thing, Jane.
Say, CATERS, did you dig ole
Cootie Williams and his mellow
band? And did you chalk that hard
ring on that Ink Spots hand? The
Ink Spot that sings bass had Betty
Brown, Mary Jane White, Carrie
Priest, Donna Cuff, Louise Cuff and
even Carmen Aliens heart all
a-futter. How about that 1--WE that
keeps you alive?
Warning! Bobby Bannarn, that
mad sax cat, said watch out chicks
because he's up to bat" He's a
hard liver as no doubt you know,
and talking about a sax, WOW! He
can really blow! Sly Robert Pat
terson is really coming on just too
groovy, seen him with a chick, I
guess to a movie. Lately he's been
going around with trails and that's
not all, on the South side and in
st. Paul. What is your tale, Night
ingale? Same ole story, morning
glory?
Saw beautiful Clio Parker, the
gorgeous, quiet type. T mean, boys,
that chick is fine and wish could
make her mine, all mine.
Jacqueline Early went around
Sunday looking like a love sick
dove. I bet you dislike the song,
"You Always Hurt the One You
Love-" You had better stand at
attention to the hepsters that are
known, tho there are some quite
groovy and some quite frown. They
have the naturalization and the
rhythm of creation, altho kind of
fast and jumpy, and their dancing
kind of bunny, they're the future
that you wait for, the morrow that
you hope for. Tho their hearts are
light and gay, they hold the future
of the future come some bright
day.
Dig you next week while you're
in your splendor, and jumping and
jiving next to a red hot vender,
and we'll dance at the "Savoy" till
the 1.-TWO O'clock Jump" and we'll
cut "Down the Road a Piece" and
have zone Meat Ball." and now
"I'll Be Seeing You"
That's great 1--WE if you dig me
cause that's the stuff you gotta
watch, McDuff!-Duke Don.

OILS: l graduated from high
school this year. I won a scholar
ship to Samuel Houston College. I
really want to go to college. My
parents aren't able to put me
through school and 1 know it, but
they object to my going to work so
that I can get ready for school. Do
you think it would be wise for me
to go to Houston without their
permission and find work and get
ready for school this fall? Ny sis
tiers and brothers live there. Would
1 regret it later? I want to always
do the thing that is right.
Ans: 1t would be wrong to leave
your parents home without their
knowledge. Get in touch with your
brothers and sisters and ask their
cooperation in your case. They can
influence your parents by offering
you place to stay while working.
Your parents object to your leaving
home to go out into the world alone
at your age. If your brothers or
your sisters will offer you a home
while you work, they will withdraw
their objections and give their con-
sent.
P. M. D.: I am in trouble. My
husband and 1 are apart. We got
along like two doves until I had
to leave and go see about my moth

With the summer practice season
over four weeks old, it looks as
if the University of Minnesota's
Golden Gophers may have another
wingman to step into the shoes
Dwight Reed vacated when he
finished his grid career in 1887.
Since the St. Paulite completed his
fancy pigskin feats under the ma
room and gold banner, Negro foot
ballers have been conspicuous by
their absence at the Gopher school.
This year, Stafford Lott, assistant
boys worker at Phyllis Wheatley
House and ex-Army vet, has come
forward as one of the three top
candidates for the left end position.
Lott begins his second year at the
"U" this fall, but this marks his
first try at varsity ball.
He's been practicing since Jan
uary to "find out how it Stood"
according to Staff. at isn't too
rough, now," he continued, 'but it
will be September g." When he
first turned out for practice this
winter, Lott decided if things didn't
go we'll he wasn't going to waste
any of his own time or the coach
ing staff's either.
Bucking him for the left wing
post are two 17-year-olds, John
Lundin from Minneapolis Roose-
welt, and Paul Kelly of Hopkins, so
the competitions wide open and
anything can happen.

you a few gags PERCY VILLA
that could fill this space, but then
again maybe they're not so funny,
and that will make me look worse
than l really am! So instead,
we'll give you some of my favorite
rememberings.
FORGET-ME-NOTS: When Britt
German first came up to Potts
gymnasium about 16 years ago
Wonder if Britt remembers that it
was who gave him his first work
out? The late Jerk Doran
Pah-lenty colorful and a per-
sonality plus The Lasky
brothers-Art and Morris thew
made more boxing mistakes than
a dozen fighters make in a life
time The biggest blunder was
that Art didn't want to part with
any part of his fight earnings and
get himself a real manager who
could have made a champ or close
TO 1t So instead he kept his
brother Morris, who was onlv a
novice of a manager The semi
pro days when an amateur fighter
made more money being an anna
teur than pro Or did you
know that many an amateur got
$50 for fighting three two-minute
rounds? E. When Jock Malone
was called the "Pavlowa" of the
ring Whatta dancing master!
Talking about clever fighters
-. Remember Tiger Flowers .
Dave Shade Billy Wells .
The Twin Cities saw all those boys
and was that ever treat? . P1l
always say that frankie Soltis was
the best crowd pleaser back some
twenty years ago.
remember little Joey Schwartz
and his slashing battles at the old
Armory? Gus Bloomberg
always gave the fans a round for
their money =. personally think
that the Ace of Spades could have
gone places, only he didn't take the
game any too seriously Or
what do you think?
I'll always rate King Tut as the
greatest fighter, inch for inch, that
we've ever seen At 100 pounds
l saw him knock out and defeat
Otto Van Poratt, Big Boy Peterson
and Dick Daniels at Potts gym
nasium all in one afternoon =.
Whatta puncher and ganester he
was! . The incest champ can
recall meeting was Sammy Man
dell the former lightweight . . AS
nice as they come You'd never
think that little Joey Sanger was
a great fighter by looking at him
His fights with Mandel, Nc
Klean, Sarmiento and Eddie Ander-
son will long be remembered in
this town Wonder if the kid
is around who some day will be
called another Gibbons or Malone ?
-. 1 always enjoyed big Fred Full
ton around the gym A real guy
with the little fellows The
thrilling fights that Jackie Sharkey
used to wager in these parts =.
Jackie Conway The smiling
redhead was always doing his very
best Chuck Foster He
was a heavyweight nearly twenty
years ago, and today weighs much
less and is in the pink -. The ever
pleasing Billy Freeman . Nice
Teller and equally good fighter e.
Now hasn't this been an easy
column to read (and easy to write)
all simply because said nice things
about everybody Who wants
to get peeved at anyone during this
hot weather, anyway?
