The Fisk Tire Company's Social and Athletic Association events and happenings for the week of October 10, 1919.

Description

A four page newspaper describing the events related to the social groups and athletic clubs of the Fisk Tire Company for the week of October 10, 1919. The Red Tops win! The Red Tops win! Headline: "Red Tops Take Big Series As Final Feat For Fine Season" Page one stories highlight the game, the season, the pitching and the fans. It was a close game with the Red Tops winning 1-0. Arthur Johnson pitched his best game of the season. There were double the Fisker fans over the first game and they were super loud. Oh, and, Fisk Hall will open the fall/winter season with a Halloween party. Page two sees the Question Box return again. Stories on the beginning dance class graduating and the new selection of magazines at the Fisk Library go with stories on Jimmy Spillane going off to college at the University of Vermont and the rehearsal schedule for the minstrel show. Page three shows how they celebrated a victory in 1919 - by vandalism and car burning? No. Photographs show the full stands with people clapping and then having a parade with a band leading the march. Below the photographs are some employee notes and a paragraph on the suggestion of a Duplicate Whist Club. Also, the men's bowling league is forming up and there is another chicken shoot at the park range. Page four has the jumps from page one and other stories on the Red Tops players. Other stories include one on Curtis Moody leaving Fisk and going to the Perfection Tire Company in Fort Madison, Iowa. Good luck with that. Elzear Forand writes about his trip to the safety conference in Cleveland, Ohio. Things wrap up with the Old Timers' League standings and a two paragraph wrap of the quoits tournament.
