I am reminded of Emory Goerthe's attempts to establish a cell of the
Bader-Meinhoff Gang in Brenham during the early sixties. He thought it would
be a German equivalent of the SPJST Fraternal Order that his Czech
schoolmates enjoyed. Before he knew it, they had him and his buddies making
exploding pretzels and anthrax-laced Sheiner beer over at the Spoetzel
brewery. Berlin headquarters shut the whole thing down when the boys began
eating the pretzels and drinking the beer and lighting five-foot-long
"flamers" on the 50-yard line at half-time during the Snook-Brenham football
game. This spectacle is imortalized on the last Goethe quilt accepted into
the Barker Museum collection.(Art history researchers should reference
Quilts/Erotic/Ribald/Goethe/Emory/Pretzelfartengeflamen.)
