Martinka Scores
|
Frank Young
|
John Martinka, ace Sergeant at Arms, rose to hassle members for another week. He just barely looked in Frank Young’s direction and Frank leaped to the microphone to tell us why he visits the BBRC, and he backed up his talk with a $100 donation. Frank is a little behind in selling his raffle tickets.
Rourke O’Brien was asked to stand. John said several members wanted to know why Rourke wasn’t called upon anymore by the SAA. “That’s a good point, Rourke … $2.00 for being off the radar screen!”
Don Chandler, after giving the big pitch for attendance, was marked absent because he was wearing Dick Clarke’s badge. Clarke wasn’t here to hear Chandler’s pitch. Somebody paid on this deal.
The news that Bob McNulty had sold his 24.6% share of Coldstream Capital did not miss the Sergeant’s sweep. Martinka couldn’t figure out what to fine Bob and left it for another encounter.

Martinka & Mix – the beer will help Mix’s memory loss.
|
John Mix was called to the front, seated to face his detractors, and admitted that he was an Idaho Vandal. Martinka went for the jugular. “They have a football team which has lost to Boise State, Wazzu (Chandler), Oregon (Both Powells—Sayoko wearing green) 58-21, the Huskies (Don Deasy), and the University of Montana (Larry Gill).” Martinka wanted to know how many points the Vandals had given up, but Mix faked a memory loss. Apparently, it adds up to 293 points allowed. That’s a pretty hefty fine. Mix said the Vandals are Moscow’s only cottage industry, bringing in huge sums of money for playing all these big teams. He also said the school was going to reschedule some of the one-person teams of the past – Stephen F. Austin, William & Mary, James Madison, and Rachel Carson. Mix was set up and tried to get away, but not before he got a six pack of beer, with offerings from OR, WA, and MT, and a BBRC mug. Actually, that wasn’t too bad a morning!
