(This is an entry from the journal entitled “Mexico Summer” written by Elizabeth Whipple Lancaster Carsey 80-years-ago)

Shopped and paid bills in the morning. Went to A.A.U.W. Tea at Harriet Poorbaugh’s at three – Mary Ownby went, too.  Had the best time ever helping to serve. Went to Velma’s and ate cider and candy and went at 11 with others to see the Premier of “She Married Her Boss” with Claudette Colbert!  The BEST  ever. Thoroughly enjoyable!   The other’s were Velma, Evelyn, Mrs. Vernon Givan and Vera Dean!  Home at 2 A.M.!!!

Here’s what else was happening 80-years-ago today:

The won’t be played in Germany.

Nazi Germany banned jazz from the radio.

An incident took place at the border between Siberia and Manchukuo near Grodekovo. Events in the clash between a Japanese-Manchukuan detachment and Soviet border guards were disputed, but several were killed on both sides.
