Historical Notes
|
|
Private Van Deusen was assigned to the cavalry of the University of Chicago, to teach ROTC. On October 6, 1928, he
responded to a call for volunteers for the U of C newspaper, the Daily Maroon, with his own call
for writers for a new column, which he called 'The Whistler' and which he ran under the pseudonym of
The Blind Tiger.
'Blue' was one of two poems he published in this first column.
