Theepair, after registering for | the race to Havana Tuesday, said they had taken no part in the flight and were surprised anyone was looking for them. Local coast guardsmen, with half their search over, are con- tinuing to make inquiries about the other missing plane, it was said here. Earl McGee and Dr. David L. White of Texas are the occupants of the plane, which it is expected here will be found safe. PLANNING FOR TOURIST CLUB The Stone Church Service Club is planning to sponsor a Tourist Club in this city to provide rec reation and. entertainment for) tourists and winter visitors. It is apparent that a definite need for this type of organization exists here. Nearly every town in the state, it is shown, regardless of size, has organized recreation for its winter visitors and as a re- sult these communities are attract- ing more tourists and holding them longer. The flow of tourists through Key West is very tran- sient and probably one reason for their not remaining longer is due man of war. That shouid be enough! for one man, but I'm going back; to the battle fronts as an ambu- lance driver—this time to the ptian Sudan to join General arles deGaul French Fore American volunteers represent- ing the British American Ambu- lance Corps. It is not brav that prompts my colleagues and myself to go over. It is a desire to do what little we can to help right a ter- rible wrong. Having seen untold misery in France as a member of the American Volunteer Ambu- lance Corps we feel it only just to join a man in whom we. have, unlimited faith. We are going over not only be- ause we want to but because our |help was asked for by General DeGaulle. Not many days ago, too, the British-American Ambu- ; lance Corps received a terse cable ; from its representative in Africa. | In it were these significant! words: | “The issue of this war may be! decided in Africa and on the Med- iterranean”.

What becomes of these pretty virgins? Where have they gone? What is their means of livelihood? Why did they leave home? The answer to these and other questions that menace the morals ef America and disturb the sleep of parents is promised in the showing of Hollywood's latest “expose” picture, “Slaves in| Bondage” at the Palace Theater onan especially arranged late show program Friday night. to the fact that not enough en- tertainment is provided for them. A meeting is scheduled for Fri- day evening at 7:30 in the Cham- | ber of Commerce at which time all winter visitors who would be in- terested in such a club, are in- vited to attend. All ideas for the establishment of such an organ- ization will be discussed and, the club hopes that as a result of this Yacht Club To Give Masquerade Ball The Key West Yacht Club will hold the Annual Benefit Mas-| querade Ball in the Patio of the) Casa Marina on the evening of, February 14. takes we made in France. ambulances—20 of them—will be equipped with two-way radios, which we hope will enable us to save the lives of many more wounded.
