Suffrage Banquet
Brilliant Success
The Palestine Equal Suffrage As-
sociation scored a brilliant success
with their first banquet, given at the
Redlands Hotel Saturday night, every
seat having been sold long before the
hour of the occasion. Ladies were
much in the majority, but still there
were a goodly number of gentlemen
present. State President Mrs. R. J.
Cunningham was present as the guest
of honor, and met many of the local
people. * ’
The banquet was served in the
large banquet hall of the Redlands
and the doors to the dining room were
opened at 7:45. A splendid menu
was served in three courses, and after
the luncheon was finished, Miss Kate
Hunter, first state vice president, act-
ing as toastmaster, introduced a
number of speakers. A number of
gentlemen made short addresses, in-
cluding Messrs. H. I. Myers, R. W.
Dunlap, N. B. Morris, A. A. Clark, H.
C. Jameson, George A. Wright, T. B.
Greenwood and H. V. Hamilton.
However, the eloquence of the even-
ing and the talMi of length and inter-
est were made by Mrs. R. C. Dunlap
and by the honor guest, Mrs. Cunning-
ham, Mrs. Dunlap has been heard
here before and never fails to make
a £ood talk, filled with original ideas.
Mrs. Cunningham won great favor
with her large audience and made a
splendid talk.
Miss Hunter is a recognized leader
In woman’s suffrage, movements in
Texas, and makes an ideal presiding
officer.
The banquet was quite a social af-
fair, but we leave that phase of the
•event to the regular society reporter.

U. 8. ASKED RELEASE OF TWO
MEN SEIZED BY BRITISH
London, November 21.—The Ameri-
can embassy has requested the Brit-
ish government to release Emil Mie-
hike and Herman Krauss of Chicago,
naturalized Americans of German
birth, who were taken from the Nor-
wegian-Amerlcan liner Kristfrnfjord.
The British authorities are making a
practice of detaining naturalized citi-
zens who are unable to produce their
naturalization papers. Immediate
representations were made for their
release.
It is said here that Washington
does not admit the British authorities
have any right to go behina American
passports for further proof of Ameri-
can citizenship, and #wiii take the
stand that there must be no discrimi-
nation between native born and nat-
uralized citizens. •

GREECE BLOCH IS
PALESTINE TAKES
GAME FROM TYLER
Showing a'great change in at- _
tack in the second half of a well
played game in wnich Tyler
showed remarkable strength in
the first half and fought like de-
mons in the second half, after the
local high got well strung out,
Palestine won over her old rivals
« ' . r
by a score of 17 to 0 in Saturday’s
game. '
In the opening half Tyler carried
the ban to Palestine’s four yard line
‘ • -■ '.ii
and lost-It on a fumble and on the
first down Teamer kicked out of dan-
ger from behind Palestine’s goal line,
the ball going over Tyler quarter-
back’s bead. After that scare was
over Palestine played a little better
X
ball, but it was not until the second
half that the locals played anything
like the game they are capable of
9
playing.
For Palestine, Matthews, Penny-
backer and Lawler starred; for Tyler
Leib and Hale were a tower of
strength.
The local high school team will
have the game of their lives at Aus-
when they go up
high for the state
championship? We are expecting
Palestine to win, and if they play the
game they are capable of the cham-
pionship is theirs.
