A rather late submission for Newsiestober Day 29 (Magic)

I understand canonically, David would be in Ilvermorny, but in this one... He won a scholarship to Hogwarts and got sorted into Ravenclaw.

I can see him in Gryffindor or Hufflepuff but I’m being biased towards Ravenclaw because that’s my house and I’d LOVE to have Davey as a housemate.

“Come back here Higgins, you’re under arrest and I ain’t done with ya just yet!”

“Aww miss me already Conlon? Why don’t you come and catch me then Spottie!”

“I warned you to stop calling me that”

“Well that wouldn’t be fair... I gave you a free pass on calling me Racer”

Or AU where Spot Conlon is a detective on a never ending chase to capture his nemesis, the elusive master thief known only as “Racetrack”

Newsiestober 2019 Day 25 - Favorite Ship (Jatherine)

Okay I’ll be honest, it’s hard for me to pick a favorite ship from Newsies, but I settled for drawing Jatherine since I got the idea and I do find the ship a bit underrated (no offense)

“Mr. Devery. Don’t call me a slob. I’m trying to make my living. I ain’t so high in office as you, but some day I may be higher!”

This is my favorite Racetrack Higgins quote coming from the real Racetrack Higgins himself for Newsiestober Day 22- Racetrack Higgins.

@newsiestober

Race is just such an inspiration, historical, movie, or musical!

Newsiestober 2019 Day 16 - Katherine Pulitzer/Plummer

Here she is in her outfits from the Philippine production of Disney’s Newsies: The Broadway Musical, and yes I absolutely love her character as well as her outfits in that production so very much.

Thank you very much for this information. This was interesting to know. :)

I hope you don’t mind if I ask a question about a nearly obscure newsboy but I’m curious to know if you have any more info in regards to Emil Kahune, one of the strikers. Why was he so beloved? Did he ever get released from the Gerry society?

Unfortunately I don’t know much about what became of Emil Kahune/H. H. Keuhn. However, these are a few articles that mention him:

From The New York Herald, July 21:

Emil Kahune, a striker, who refused to give his address, was arrested and taken to the West Thirtieth street police station. A crowd of newsboys followed him, cheering him lustily all the way. At the police station the youngsters carried him large quantities of candy and fruit, and when he was led away to the rooms of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children his mouth was full of delicacies.

From The Sun, July 21:

Milo Green, a 15-year-old newsboy, tried to sell Journals and Worlds in the doorway of the uptown office of the World last evening. The strikers gathered across the street and threatened him vocally until a woman came along and tried to buy a paper of him. The strikers swept across the street, then snatched the paper from the woman’s hands and tore it to pieces. Then one of them, Emil Kahune, jumped on Green.

Hugh Coleman, a lawyer, dropped off a Broadway car at this stage of the fight, took Kahune over his knee and spanked him soundly. The rest of the mob assaulted Coleman until a policeman came to his aid and arrested Kahune.

From The New York Times, July 21:

H. H. Kuehn, a striking newsboy, fifteen years old, was arrested last night for tearing up some newspapers belonging to another boy at Thirty-fourth Street and Sixth Avenue. At the West Thirtieth Street Station House he refused to give his address. Before the Gerry Society agent arrived a number of the prisoner’s comrades went to the station house with large quantities of fruit and candy for him. When Kuehn was taken to the Gerry society headquarters a large number of the boys followed him.

As always, if anybody has more information, please do share it!

First Impressions 💙

This was initially for Day 14 (Davey) but I got caught up by my schoolwork, so here it is. Additionally, it can be considered an advanced submission for Day 25 (Favorite ship)

“Oh a smart girl huh?!” 😏

“I admire smart girls!” 😍

Okay. I am ABSOLUTELY in love with Steven’s new outfit right now. 💕⭐️
