    CORNHUSKER
GOLF NEWS
by- LAWRENCE LEWIS
Golfers looked to the links over
the week end despite the coolness
of the weather. ‘‘Penny" Murray
has lost no time in preparing for
the club championship; between
the horses and golf, he is keeping
quite busy.
One golfer with the initials of
B. C. is taking golf lessons quite
frequently, and is improving read
ily. He is planning on surprising
a few of the boys.
You goiters who are not a mem
ber of the Cornhuskers make out
an application now so that you
*will be able to enter our tourna

What young golfer is that who
needs a tonic before his golf
game They say that he gets a
little tired on the last nine. I
suggest he take a little with him.
Say boys let’s all enter the com
ing World-Herald Tournament.
It's a lot of fun, and you might
win a prize. You have plenty of
time to play, and it’s free.
Someone asked B. Galloway why
he gets so nervous when playing
the Lake hole at Fontenelle park.
If he were only a fish he couid
recover some of those golf balls.
Elmwood Golf Course, the site
of the Central States tournament,
is in very good condition. Play
on this course as much as possible
so you may get familiar with its
tricky fairways and green. It is
an ideal course for championship
golf and it will be to your advan
tage to know it.
i Your reporter received a card
from James W. Slemmons, Negro
Mayor of the twin cities. They
are having an invitation day there

“IF AND BUT”
(by Myrtle M. Goodlow)
Two horses If and But
Are always runners up
In every race—win, place or shew,
They win or lose your dough—
If you stick to the horse you
choose,
You have a chance to win—
But you play another looks more
trim
And nine to ten you lose
Merchants on Twenty-fourth St.,
Do everything but weep
During the racing meet,
For bills long past due,
Will not be paid till the races
are through—
That’s why on the Fourth of July
They cease to moan and sigh
For they are looking forward to
Collecting bills three months due

This exclusive month of June
sets us back a notch....As the
rain dripped, dropped and went on
the Cats and their companions and
associates were slack on the ave
nue. Most of the Rocks could be
spotted going in and out of drug
stores, hash joints, beer joints and
such places, between showers. A
long the man drag, the men’s fine
suits shrunk and their expensive
draped hats was hard to disting
uish from mop-sticks. Many of
the girls had “a time” with their
hair, altho most of them wore
wigs and could remove them when
they saw the clouds gathering ■ •
Of course the beauticians were
booked up; Never-the-less, the
farmers and gardeners were thank
ful for the downpours.
*****
Girls on the Streets were sur
prised to spot along the stroll the
“comers and goers”-Among
them were Mr- ‘ Bobbie” Rudd,
John Booth, Herman Stevens, Cal
vin Fradger, Cleo Suggs, Richard
Rice, Wesley White, Hirium Pitt
man and Harod Biddeaux, George
Deen, and we hear that more is on
their way.
And Now For A Litte Weeky
Gossip—
Could They Be Breadwinners?
Billie Riggs, Elwood Hicks, Ber
nard Maroney and Richard Rice
haven’t been able to work since
the rainy season has taken advan
tage of them-..-this Rock busin
ess have been very bad • • • • Let’s
hope that the sun will shine and
the boys can start back to work
at once!

The Duke’s O. K.
The Glamour Boy, better known
as ‘‘the Duke” takes time out from
his heavy date schedule to stroll;
with his constant heartbeat on1
Sunday.
******
Lightning never strikes twice in
the same place. You have perh
aps heard that up through the
years from the time as a young
ster you begged nickles for ice
cream until now. This average,
however, seems never to have had
the least impression on Cleo Suggs
who looks up Sally everytime he
strikes Omaha.
******
Dated As ACalendar
Yep! They marks the dates as
they come, they are often seen at
the show, Addie Hall, Herman
Lock, Grade Turner, and James
Brown.
¥¥¥¥¥¥
Gloria Monday and Edgar Alford
seem to be inseparable friends
• •hoping that nothing intercede
with their friendship, .for exam
ple a triffic Blisskrieg.

L. B. W.’s
face was a map crossed witb
lines of lassitude and languidtude
when D. G. confessed his love for
her. You know he is so treach
erous.
*****
Yes Sir
the Avenue is tough as a boot
and ten times harder since so
many hometowners have returned
for the summer. Some of them
has toured here and there hobo
ing.-hitch-hiking and riding and
you know some of them got sort
of hep in the fly towns and “Schol
arship colleges”.
*****
Had a nice chat with that fine
fellow from Chicago, Calvin Frad
gers, who has been seen driving a
sedan maroon plymouth. He had
some tatter that would make the
hep Cats and younger studds ar
ound Omaha Wplk with the tread
of a kitten.

Everyone seems to be talking
about the new combination—table
mode], turn table that plays ten
records. This machine belongs to
the Smith’s on 28th and Parker.
It is very fine.

They tell us that they shook
him down after a meal at a cer
tain cafe and found a dozen
spoons in his possession. His ex
cuse was “The doctor told me to
take three spoons a day.” Won’t
reveal the name.
******
Once again it becomes my sad
duty to tell the gang a bit of news
concerning two well known cats.
Never mind their names, we will
do that much for them- Cann their
identification until some other oc
casion .... anyhow these Cats were
seen... .ennie, meenie, mying,
mooing a couple of girls, each
would be with at the carnival. The
two girls had their backs turned
during the election. I don’t think
they knew what was going on - •
but you can bet we saw the whole
“set up”.
We see that Ruthie, ole kid, has
an understudy. ••-not a rival or
'someone who is playing second
fiddle, Just a plain understudy. •
meaning, of course, takes your
place when you are not present.
You know her kid, 0. W.

It is very surprising how many
girls actually work out in private
homes now.

,Petie Allen
must still be in doubt about his
love, after her dancing a slow,

Richard Rice,
A fugitive from Lincoln univers
ity, after nine long months of
hard studying, trying to make
something of himself in life, came
all the way back home and found
his “babee” belonging to someone
else. He was a good sport about
it and gave a rusty, unpractical
laugh.
*****
At the carnival the other night
we were just wondering if James
spent his money for enjoyment or
to show out in front of his two
ex’s.
sk *****
Say I Do in Nuptial Rites
Sunday June 1th at the St. Ben
edict’s —Alyce Smart became the
bride of Mr. Wm, Harper.
Tuesday, June 17th, Miss Mild
red Smith became the beautiful
bride of Mr- John Frazier.
Wednesday, June 18th, Louise
"Watson became the bride of Mr.
Roscoe Secrets.
G. O. T. S. wish them much suc
cess and happiness.
*****
Overheard
That Clifford Tymony intends to
steal back to his old time use-to
be, Betty Mitchell. I guess Shu
lar Barksdale will be crying again
******
What’s This:
Did you note how' Betty Riggs
kept glancing in the bandstand at
the Coronation Ball? It couldn’t
have been because Preston Love
was playing in Lloyd Hunter’s
band, could it Betty?
******
Third Party:
Have you see Mercedes Moore
lately riding “Blue Heaven” with
Herman Franklin right by her
side?
******
Really?
Did you hear about Delores
Jackson visiting Paul Beck in Wy
oming about two weeks ago. The
trip was very secretive--Maybe
they are Mr. and Mrs. now-. ..
******
So Ston?
Wonder why Otilla Gordon and
Ethel Davis kept pretending they
had to talk to Henry Harrison a
bout • another certain pal of his.
\\ as it to make Katherine Boggus
jealous ?
*****
One Too Many:
That’s what Foster Goodlett
had at the Coronation. One half
of his evening was spent with Dor
is Southard ,and the later part
was spent with Korea Clark.
******
•
All Alone:
That’s the way it seemed with
Roberta Longmire at the Coron
ation. She looked very nice.
*****
Miles Apart
Seems like Amelia and Bubbie
correspondence love affair got to
gether at the Coronation. He drove
miles just to see her. She did
look nice though.
*****
Just Love
That’s what is between Joyce
Blair and Elwood Hicks—“Oma
ha’s Most Loving Couple”.
******
Surprised!
Did you notice the bored expres
sion on Walterine Wright’s face
while she was dancing with Mason
Devereaux at the Coronation ? She
didn’t look so bored afterwards in
the Weiner Shop???
*****
Just Make Up Your Mind:
That’s what Gloria Jean Claxton
needs to do. Billie Riggs and
Calvin Hobbs are Iboth on the
string.
*****
Gone But Where?
Have you noticed Bernice Mur
dock isn’t wearing the army pin
belonging to her Ft. Crook boy
friend. Maybe he’s gone too.
*****
Fickle
A certain Omaha boy is just as
fickle as women. He can’t seem
to make a choice betwteen Olive
Willis and Katherine Taylor.
Cowboy Stevens seemed to have
taken Katherine off his hands the
night of the Coronation.
*****
The Invisible Man
It’s funny B. D. always talks a
bout W. D. but is never seen with
him. I wonder if this is just a
one sided love affair.
*****
Rumors:
I wonder if there is anything to
this about a certain boy named
Sonny and Johnice Harston gett
ing married. It’s been rumored
several times.
*****
Until then, G’by now!
This is your G- O. T. S. signing

PRE-REVIEW
(A Weekly Feature)
by DUB SLICER
EPISODE NO. 3. “If Your Ball
Went Out of Bounds, It’s Because
You Didn’t Ad-dress It Right”
Ha Harr, the “Dub” just receiv
ed his 1st fan mail. This missive
came, Parcel Post 1 l-2c collect
and was signed anonymous. The
contents as near as I could deciph
er them (minus some ‘slang’)
were as follow^:
Dear Dubber:—
May your drives always go out
of bounds and may your putts
never drop; and I am sure they
won’t because you are the worse
golfer I ever seen, I could drive
with my niblick, give you a stroke
a hole, and putt with my brassie
and still beat you. “Dub” shore
is a perfect name for you- AND
as for me PICKING UP on the
9th hole that time I played Penny
..YES I DID PICK UP, but I
wasn’t on the edge of the green
as you said. I WAS IN THE
HOLE--at at least I was in the
place the hole HAD BEEN the
last time I had played at Fonten
elle and you shore can’t expect a
technological golfer like me to go
around playing HIDEHAND-GO
SEEK with the Keeper of the
Greens. Never mine what my
name is. And if you ever drive
past my upstairs window on Corby
St., between 25th and 26th I’m go
ing to bean your ball head with
my golf bag.
With kindest regards, I remain,
(signed) Anonymous.
Ed. Note- He went into the rut
where the hole used to be, but
wasn’t so he called a *teck! . so
what-.so Penny wants his monev
• • The law of golf says you must
play where the hole is, not where
it wuz • • or shudda been.
THE GAS HOUSE GANG;
Scott, Sims, and Owen
And step across the street
please, Counsellor at Law, Chas.
Davis, Attorney Arthur B. McCaw
and J. D. Crawford, Lawyer
Dovetail or mesh, Recorder of
Deeds, County Assessor and Coun
ty Clerk. All three used to be
Comhusker officials, J. D. C. was
secretary and Art was president
and C. F. D. was also secretary at
one time I believe. And look at
them now... -Exalted Ruler of
Elks, President of NAACP and
Omaha’s Model Secretary of how
many organizations. Hlbwever I
must admit that only one of this
distinguished trio, Art McCaw,
has been active with us so far this
year. But Mr. Atty. Davis, the
gentleman from Chicago by the
way of Co. Bluffs, is on the fence
and we hope to have him in our
yard very soon. As it seems that
his comely daughter, who is a Co
ed at Nebraska and also a U. S.
Defense worker - • Thinks He
should have a set of Golf Clubs
for FATHERS DAY--Now he
doesn’t know anything about her
plans, as she intends to surprisei
him, if and when she gets the
clubs. So you must promise to
help me keep it a secret so Fath
er Davis will be real surprised
like • • So that leaves only Mr. J. D.
•. Every time anybody says any
thing to him about golf,*he starts
to multiplying, subtracting and
dividing figures to himself out
loud- • - - It’s really hipnotising like
You should hear him sometime..
You see, he is the mathematical
and financial expert for the C. C.
C. Club; but, Golf is thicker than
water (meaning nothing in gener
al and nothing in particular) so
we expect to see him out real soon
‘whanging” away.... Remember
them lines, Jess used to have him
drawing on the tees? -.. - Well
anyway, He would draw the line
one way and knock the ball an
other. So he finally hit upon the
idea of drawing the line the way
he DIDN’T want the ball to go:
and he got to be quite a golfer
too.... And by following the Court
House Gang up a floor, we find
that Lovejoy fellow—he borrowed
my season’s pass in 1924 and ain’t
returned it yet-no kiddin’, and
who is that guy rite up the hall
from LJ; banging the stuff ins out
of that typing machine, his mug
looks familiar—poor typing mach
ine. And them, my frans, is the
Court House ‘Quints’. Now let’s
cross the lawn to the City Hall,
Jess Hutten, he is one of the Vets
and a darn good golfer too. The
Dubber dropped in at Jess’s resi
dence one Sunday afternoon ard
they couldn’t get him ‘the Dub
ber’ out of the Basement- You
probably have seen those Auto
matic Furnace Advs. in the Mag
azines and nuespapers about
‘Transform Your Basement into a
Recreation Room’ w-ith a Bar and
so forth; Well the Dubber found
the Bar and that was As Far as
they could get him-Allergic to
Pars but not to Bars.
And speaking of conventional
ity, Lonnie Thomas, Lincoln’s Star
golfer and Society man, has al
ways took great pride in his in
formal attitude towards life, like
that time he kept us and Harry
waiting up in Minneapolis. Well
anyway, the Dubber went him one
better a week or so ago, when
Lonnie was in Omaha with 'quite’
a bit of loveliness, he dropped in
at the Dubber5 s house .where
Mama Dubber and Little Dubber
greeted him and his “Lovi-dovi*
But Popper Dubber was no where
around to be seen ,anywhere
But pretty soon he ‘Popper Dub
ber’ came sauntering carefree like
up the front steps and Into the
living room-without a sign of
shoes on; only his Sockins (shure
I can’t spell Mr. Linotipo, but it
is still Sockins) Yass, he didn’t
have a sign of shoes on, So Lon
nie trying to live up to his reput
ation, Says “Haw, Haw, Haw (the
way he says Haw Haw Haw) and
his “Quite a Bit", not knowing
what it was all about laffed too,
and Lonnie, continued by saying
‘‘Gabby and Lawrence told me
they were going to beat the sho
es off of you the next time they
took you out to Elmwood.” The
Dubber looking Blank Like, repli
ed “Beat me ? ? Huh, them guys
can’t even beat Milton Wilson or
even Southpaw Terrell."
So Mama Dubber being a little
embarrassed in front of the out
of toWn lady and not caring who
could beat who; insisted:
“Well where are your shoes, for
goodness sake??”
The Dubber still unperturbed:
answered:
“Oh, they are in that chair
there, pointing towards the chair j
the strange lady from Lincoln
was sitting in. The Strange Lady
jumped up sudden like. But the
Dubber soothed her ruffled sense
of security by saying; —
“Aw don’t mind, Miss, I was go
ing to have them shined tomor
row, anyway”.
ED. NOTE: The Lady Visitor
is a charming and refreshing per
sonality. The Dubber is incorr
igible. He was probably out in
his WEED garden asleep, that’s
what he does when he is supposed
to be cutting weeds. You are now
perhaps wondering why we hired
him in the first place. He was
'trended down in Kansas City at
♦"he golf meet, without any gaso
line and we had to loan him a Ten
Spot. Now we have to give him
a job so wre can collect this Ditto
$10. That’s why he says he is
going off of the Air on Labor
Day. We are paying him 49 1-2
cents per week the other part of
the 4-bits goes to the U. S. ^or S.
S. The Ed.
L. Le^s told Billy D. out at
the Roce track, that Billy couldn’t
pick a winner, even if they grew
on trees like cherries and then in
a few minutes, Billy’s Hoss came
gallopin’ in paying twelve bucks..
John Mickens had two tempor
ary ailments a few weeks ago;
one of them was a sprained ankle
• •••and for the other Burl reco
mmended that Mickens drink a
can of Sour Kraut juice. Mick
ens got rid of the other ailment
alright but ended up with two
sprained ankles.
And now while you are trying
to figure this last one out we will
tune this Cornhusker Victory
Song to “Take me out to the Ball
Game’
Let’s get cheers from the crowd
boys
Let’s win the prizes too
Let’s knock the golf balls far
and true
Let us strive for a snappy
comeback
It’s root, root, root for the
Home Team
It’s too bad if we lose
But Shoot two, three, four and
get a par
Let’s win every game

“THE CYCLOPS”
NEW! “BACTERIOSTATIC"
FEMININE
HYGIENE
now finding great favor
among women...
Many doctors recommend regular use
of douches as a precautionary meas
ure for women who want to be clean,
dainty—for women troubled by offend
ing odor or discharge.
Some products may be harmful to
delicate tissues. But not Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Sanative Wash! Pinkham’s
Sanative Wash is gaining great favor
because it’s NOT a harmful germicide.
Instead—it’s a mighty effective “bac
teriostatic” (the modern trend). It not
only discourages bacterial growth and
infection but thoroughly cleanses, deo
dorizes. Very soothing—relieves minor
irritations and discharge and has a
tonic effect on delicate membranes.
