PAGE SIX TWO PROJECTS ANNOUNCED AT LIONS MEETING ARMISTICE DAY CELEBRA- TION IS ONE OF TWO TAK- UP AT SESSION THURS- DAY EVENING {By CLUB REPORTER) Two important projects were announced at the regular weekly meeting of Key West Lions club held Thursday evening, October 20, at Stone Church Annex, two projects that bid fair to prove of interest to Key Westers and tourists. Lion president H. E. Day presided. First project is the benefit performance to be held at the Palace Theatre on Sunday and Monday, October 30 and 31. This show, “Down In ‘Arkansaw’”, will be under club sponsorship: for the two days and proceeds CUBAN MINISTER TO SPAIN SPEAKS BEFORE ROTARY Is IN KEY WEST RECUPERAT- ING; NATIONAL DIFFER- ENCES SAID DUE TO IGNOR- ANCE 1 In a talk before the Rotary Club Thursday arternoon Dr. Ra-} fael Gutierrez Alcaide, minister | to Madrid from Cuba, who is re- cuperating in Key West’s famed climate, said that he was thank- | ful to be in a country where there was an atmosphere of peace. Mr. Alcaide was introduced by Sebastian Cabrera, who was in charge of the program. Also in- troduced were Cuban Consul Ber- ardo Rodriguez Valdez and vice- consul Jose G. Perez, who re- sponded with short talks.

A giant Armistice Day celebra: .tion.is planned as the second ‘project of the club of interest to! this city. Plans are not com- plete, though something in the’ nature of a big fish-fry and coun- try dance is hinted by special committee-chairman, Joe Mon- dul... Residents are ed to stand by for full details next week. “Miss Mohlika Reich and Mrs. N.' Wray of the Miami office, Federal Theatre Project, were gusets of tlie club and presented a highly interesting demonstration of the aft of Marionettes to the club. Miss Reich and assistants were present in this city for perform- ances at local schools. “Other matters brought before’ the club included a_near-fture zone meeting to! be held at Coral Gables; the beginning of Blind Work and Sight Conservation by the committee headed by Lion Sidney Einhorn; the report of Reich and Miss Nellie Wray of quoted Gravesend, England, Ro- tary Club where an effort to study and understand French people and their customs was be- ing made. In Calcutta, India, Rotary Clubs moslem and Christian In Calcutta, Indian Rotary clubs Moslem and Christian, sit together, a great mark of toler- ance. Youth corps of other Euro- pean countries regularly invite youths of other nations. “Most of the high tension between races comes from ignorance”, Mr. Lo- pez said. _ Cabrera ended the program in mentioning the successful culmin- ation of the Gran Chaco dispute in which Rotary opinion was re- sponsible for the first efforts to- ward a mediation. “A marionette talk and exhibi- tion was given by Miss Molkaj the Miami Federal Theatre. Guests present were: Virgil L. Lockrow, Birmingham, Mich.; M. J. Horre, Key West; Miss Molka ‘Reich and Miss Nellie Wray, Mi- ami; Cuban Consul Berardo Rod- riguez Valdes and Vice Consul Jose C. Perez and Dr. R. G. Ab slips. were passed out. New member of the club is GUY C.' CARLETON. The song slips fea- turd the printing of the words of the circle of friendship song which few of the members knew | before: A much heartier circle! song was the result. Dr. KEMP did nobly in reading the club’s preamble: the past readers have misspelled and stumbled over words so much that the club was getting to think those words of John Wesley in good old English had gotten slangy. CHARLES | KETCHUM, JR., made a' trip up-) state and was not allowed to geti away until he had delivered a full report on same, including the girls he met.
