Commander Swenson told the | Rotarians there are now 800 en- listed men in Key West and that more are coming. He said they run between 18 and 25 years old, ‘the majority are recruits and that virtually all of them have had high school or college training. | |They come from good families and are carefully selected for the service, he said. “We wish these young men to! make desirable contacts in Key | | West under the right conditions”, Lieut. Comdr. Quinn empha-} sized the importance of provid- ing facilities for the sailors to keep them out of troublesome places when off duty. He sug- gested a number of facilities, with a view to economy. Among them were handball, basketball and softball courts; horseshoe pitching grounds, picnics, beach parties, dances, fishing trips naval boats and other inexpensive pastimes.
