Stetson University, is pleased to announce that Miss Mary E. Grillion of Key West has aceepted the chairmanship of the committee of judges for’ the scholarship which Stetson Univer- sity will award to some student in Monroe county. Miss Grillion will announce in the near future the names of the judges who will serve on her committee, Dr. Lincoln Hulley, president of Stetson University, is in accord with the leading educators in be- lieving that music is the best mind trainer as well as the most valu- able of the cultural subjects. The present trend in education is to prepare the student for a richer and fuller use of his leisure hours | as well as to train him for making} a livelihood, ‘and for that reason! music has become an important/ part of the curriculum at all lead- ing colleges and universities. In order to create interest in| the subject of music and to have; every part of Florida represented in the music department, the trus- tees have authorized the Univer- sity to give a one hundred dollar scholarship to. some outstanding music student in each county in Florida. This scholarship is to be awarded by a committee of judges chosen from prominent. musicians of that county. The contests are to be held in the various counties during the month of August. In addition to these county scholarships, the music department is also offering another schol: ship which will cover the entire amount of tuition. This contest will be held at Stetson University in DéLand on May 19. Contest- ants may compete for these scholarships in piano, voice, or orchestral instruments. It is the aim of the University. to assist talented students who are unable to finance their education, and it is hoped that through these ef- forts Florida may<develop some outstanding musicians.

Mesdames Waldo Johnson and Benjamin Sawyer as hostesses, It is also announced that there NO DECISION IN SEIZURE MADE OF AMMUNITION WHAT DISPQ TAVERNIER No decision has been reached as to the’disposition of the 76,000 rounds of ammunition found at Tavernier, by a U. S. customs of- ficer early Sunday morning, The Citizen is advised. What is to become of the seiz- ure will be determined in Wash- {ington. Instructions have been is- sued for an investigation, which is being conducted by J. D. Glass, de ment of justice agent in Miami, where the ammunition was taken, The question is whether the seizure can be made valid under the Platt amendment to the consti- tution which gives the United states the right to intervenue when the Cuban government is threatened or if it will be neces- i sary for the United States to de- clare an embargo before the ship- ment could be seized. Indications -are.that about 75, percent of the original shipment {has been: removed. fromthe - hid- ing place, before the balance was found,’ and it is believed. by of- ,| ficials that this was.placed.on a vessel bound-to* Cuba. ~ RAISE WEIGHT LIMIT OF CARS USING HIGHWAY MEASURE DIRECTED PARTIC- ULARLY TO WHEEL TRAIL- ERS AND FREIGHT TRAINS DURING TRANSPORTATION (Special to The Citizen) TALLAHASSEE, May 10.--Over the protest of those who would protect state highways from dam- age by excess weight and safe- ;guard the motorists from the haz- ard of highway freight-trains and swaying trailers, the senate pass- will be a meeting of the program ed the gas-tax measure raising the committee on Sunday afternoon at| Weight limit allowed four wheel 4 o’clock at the home of Florence }trailers from the present limit of Sawyer, president of the organiza-)8:900 to a. possible gross weight tion. limit of 18,000 pounds.
