It's gonna be good to look
into a motor again.

I think I'll take it with me.

1919. The war is over,
and the people of New York...
:08:17
...are tiring of the constant triumphal
procession of returning troops.
:08:21
And still not all of them are back.
:08:23
There is alarming news that women's skirts
are going to become shorter...
:08:26
...already they are 6 inches
above the ankle.
:08:29

A young upstart named Jack Dempsey
will meet Jess Willard...
:08:34

:08:40
Food, rent, clothing, taxes.

but their relatives and friends.

- Lf I am, they forgot to bury me.
:09:24

They kept me in Germany
to straighten things out.
:09:30
- Danny Green still live here?
- Sure.

But if you're thinking of moving in again,

:09:42
I won't have it anyway.
