Shoes and Trees and Enemy Aliens in New York
A fragment from a wartime column blends odd observations about a tree growing around a stone near Dell Creek with tales of fast growing trees and quirky local legends. It shifts to wartime anxieties inside Jamaica Town Hall as a German named woman vows to stand by her American husband and refuses to register. The piece then shifts to Dover and East Eighty Eighth Street, noting an arrest of Orman Purhin for assaulting a patrolman and a view of German heritage among ten year old pinch hitters in New York’s German neighborhood, ending with a string of digits and a quick sports-tinged aside about the “Gints.”
