THE HOOVER CABINET When the Hoover cabinet is studied, | the marvel is that it has functioned suffi- ‘ciently well te accomplis!. anything. The names of Stimson, Mills, Adams, | Hurley, Mitchell, Brown, Wilbur, Hyde, 'Lamont and Doak are meaningless .to the | public exeept as they excite unfavorable | comment, particularly Adams Key West is concerned. There is a growing feeling that foreign powers have an easy time with Stimson. Mills has not made mch of an impression with his elastie budget figuring.

There {is a danger of contention, litiga- {tion, perhaps actual physical con- flict. There is a strong probabili- ty of a certain amount of success in life, but the body of the spirit may come out of the fray much battered. VPUFEY Trek THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1932. STRAND THEATER The longest series of big laughs ever assembled in one motion pic- ture sequence, are credited to Harold Lloyd’s latest production, “Movie Crazy,’ with Constance Cummings, the first the bespec- tacled comedian has released in the Strand Theater. Eight minutes of consecutive laugh-producing ineidents have been rolled in one “faction” of ports of the picture at different | previews on the Pacific Coast, giv- ing Lloyd, as well as every other comedian, a record to shoot at in the future. Previous to the magician’s coat sequence in “Movie Crazy” which sets the new laugh-making fig- ures, Lloyd rated his greatest ser- ies of continuous laughter, the two years, which shows tonight at} “Movie Crazy,” according to re-!

IMPROVEMENTS FOR KEY WEST ADVOCATED BY THE CITIZEN Water and Sewerage. Bridges to complete Road to Malz land. The rest of the cabinet has not been enough in the public eye to earn criticism. The general impression is that they are largely what are termed “Yes-men,” named by the president as his appointees largely because they were of a type to be depended on to support anything that might be pro- posed. Leadership or decision of any kind could not be expected of such a group. During the recent campaign, republi- Uomptehensive City bias. Hotela and Apartments. Bathing Pavilion. Aquarium.

Hunger Marchers’ Way Being Paved. —Heavens, has it come to that. If you have to worry, do it after some- thing has happened, not before. Experience is never given but always bought at the top of the market price. Herbert and Franklin seem very cor- dial now, but we doubt that either will call the other “Old Potato,” A franchise and an option on a fran- chise are two different and distinct things, a fact which will be discovered by the antis in due time. All luxuries haven’t been given up, in spite of the depression. Atlanta’s baseball team has been maintained during the last three years at a loss of $108,000. The defeat of Doc Brinkley for gov- ernor of Kansas will cause disappointment to those goats which looked forward to browsing on the state house lawn. Democrats Declare They'll Back Hoo- ver—Headline. One good turn deserves another. Before election a lot of repub- lieans backed Rooseveli. So it’s only fair that democrats now back Hoover. If catching fish is only incidental to the pleasure of fishing and that the main thing is to go fishing, as Secretary of Agri- culture Hyde said at Ft. Lauderdale yester- day, then he better remain away from Key West waters for here pulling in the big whoppers is THE thing. Mrs, Sara Delano Roosevelt, mother of President-elect Roosevelt, likes to dunk her cake in her coffee and doesn’t care who knowea it. She is no different than most of us, except that most of us don’t want any- one see us do it. It seems that dunking should be strickes from the improprieties of good manners since nearly all like to dunk, can orators asserted that it would be send- ing the country to the eternal bow-vows to hand over the government to the demo- crats, As the country has done just this very thing, it might be interesting to make a few comparisons of a possible Roosevelt cabi- net, without attempting to do the appoint- ing. We might start with John W. Davis in Stimson’s place. Senator Carter Glass in Mills’ place. Albert C. Ritchie in place of Adams. Newton D. Baker in place of Hur- ley. James A. Farley in place of Brown. Senator Robert Wagner in place of Mitchell and a choice of an exceedingly large num- ber of democratic possibilities in the place of the others. The comparison is startling and serves to prove to the thoughtful citizen that the troubles of the country today may be due to inefficiency in the government as much as to any other cause. : ORIGIN OF FOOTBALL What is said to be the earliest written mehtion of football in America is contained in a book on Virginia published about 1609, only two years after the first permanent settlement at Jamestown. In that day boys played a crude game by kicking an inflated bladder over the field. But the real origin of football goes ‘| back to ancient times in Greece and Rome, where a game cailed “harpeston,” or “harpastum,” was played., It is likely that the game was introduced into the British Isles by the Romans about the beginning of the Christian era. Varieties of the game have been found in many other parts of the world. Native Polynesians played with a ball made of bamboo fibers; Eskimos made a ball of moss with a skin cover. Early football rules were more in keep; ing with the name of the game, as the ball was kicked only, and not carried. The carrying feature of the game was _ intro- duced by William Webb Ellis, a schoolboy of Rugby, Eng., in the closing minute of a tied game in the fall of 1823. His feat is commemorated by a tablet at Rugby which bears this inscription: “This stone commemorates the exploit of Willaim Webb Ellis, who with a fine dis- regard of the rules of football as played in his time, first took the ball in his arms and ran with it, thus originating the distinctive feature of the Rugby game.” The first intercollegiate football game in America was played in 1869 between Princeton and Rutgers, with 25 men on each side. It may be mentioned incidentally that the captain of the Princeton team in that game is still living in the person of Chief Justice William Stryker Gummere of the New Jersey Supreme Court, now 80 years old. Judge Gummere no doubt remembers regretfully how the game turned out, too, because his team lost by the score of 6 to 4. Neighbors thought Mrs. Lulu Cham- ! berlain, of New York, carried the kindness to animals idea too far, and complained that she was harboring 20 stray dogs and several stray cats in her flat. A judge gave her a week to get rid of them, | is ep of a BP Ze || PPT Gh on Cod ie Py Peel tte |_| “ Wy 1), Be Pe | | + | 66. Chinese money 10.

Key West was last night visited by one of the heaviest rains of the season. The storm was caused by a local disturbance and was unseasonable. The downpour was steady and no damage was report- ed as such rains are prepared for and the city system takes care of any overflow. The weather bureau said today that the precipi- tation was 1.63 inches. The pageant that was staged at the Harris school by the local Baraca and Philathea classes prov- ed to be more than a success in every way. Artistic scenery com- bined with the best talent in Key West made the pageant a rare sight indeed.
