I also have a strong feeling about Newell again.

Clue 1

Last year at Newell our fate was most cruel

Unfortunately the game ended too soon

Come now and prepare for a much tougher duel

Keep on your toes or you'll hunt until June

Ended too soon? Duel (twice) ?

Clue 7 - Memory lane, old way AGAIN

Didn't have this quite right the first time...neverfound I agree with you...Ok Folks: Couple of theories. Clue#4: "East and west are part of our test" Como is in the West, Phalen in the East. Clue#3: "Circular thinking can be one way of linking" Wheelock road links Phalen and Como. Clue#5: "A man of steel cannot be real But another has plenty of mettle" Edward Phalen or Karl Neid? Thoughts?

green - I'm thinking I'm just weird. It goes right into a tiny area called Northwood Park which may have a postal address of Saint Paul but looks outside

It's very early Sat morning I can't be expected to be thinking properly, even though I've been up since 6. : P

C'ster! Yup! I'm in the 'Cooler!

Elsea, I was gonna tell you ittiz on the east side.

Well, that's not in The City. You can forget Memory Lane.

Clue 2: "deploy" = is another term for MARSHAL(Avenue) - both words have the same definition - and if you want to pick at it, General George C. Marshallwas Commander in Chief of US Armed Forces in World War 2

Clue 5: "man of steele" = Clarke KENT (street), who was Superman. - General Marshal or Martin Luther King - "man of mettle"

Clue 7: "Memory Lane" and "traveling the old way" = Rondo Street.

I-94 = "busiest street of all" - but 94 isn't really a street

Not mentioned the word "park" = Martin Luther King RECREATION CENTER

I've also been partial to Kellogg Park with now having the 'Travelng the old way again' to mean by boat. Paddleboat

Busiest street (for downtown anyway) is Wabasha/Kellogg
