This in| itself is a saving to the city since if the Division were not doing this the city would have to pay further for the repairs and the Division has done a good job of getting the fields in shape. The only criticism thus far is in not keeping the grass down too well, but there is a reason for this since there no motorized lawn mower to be had at this time and two men can- not keep all that grass down too well all the time. is ° ° TOURIST PROJECT Tell you the ‘truth; the re tion ‘program: will be: a-’gour pleasure to touxists .and:4ocal folk alike and ranges; in. everything from swimming to’ basketball! You can go-out to the!park any night you wish and for the nom- inal sum of fifty cents an hour can play tennis or basketball to your hearts content. You can also hire the diamondball field on nights when the leagues are not playing, for one dollar an hour. It is a very satisfactory athletic program. Besides this you have the added incentive of having a park in good shape for people who wish to just sit and enjoy themselves these sunny days. Then there .are entertainments which help to pass away evenings which get too monotonous. ° ° KING IMPRESSIONS Many. persons have asked what sort of sa,,fellow ig the; new city manager,. David King.,,, This. was covered in a frppt page interview in The Citizen, jbut‘here are a few more impressions. Helis a big, burly!fellaw.,with a good, clear, strong voice: ,jMis}mind is very quick and he gvasps clearly what you have to say: and there are overtohesz0f) knowledge in him which one feels he is:not touch- sing-but-eould.--He has humor,.and. re Pigg ee ONT g TRE AD nde gy ‘ aed It makes alive the things Sie MIOTET CHIME » fully over and he makes lecision with lightning speed ioe the time is ripe. Alrea@¥tiiis offices have a continual flow of busin with! people seeking him for inter- views continually. I can detect a certain amount of pride among the city commissioners in Picking such a snappy manager. e e SHORTED WIRES The ‘White Way, which com- prises large lamp posts on Duval,' Bayview Park and other sections’ of the town are a beautiful sight when lit up. Their lighting will probably not come for quite some time since most of the wires are shorted out at present from non- use and non-repair through the war years. Just before the war their last use was pushed by Adrian O’Sweeney, energetic Irishman, who solicited merchants to have them lighted, during the tourist years. Whén old O’Swee- ney gets a bug in his head he goes after tHitgs ‘in a wide-open nion. There was the time re- abered, too, when he organiz- a business men’s Scavenger vice and took care of things mighty well. ° e COMMERCE STIRS 4 where the Cha amber of merce is stirring from leth- war years and inviting di- and would-be members to meeting. In this way ber hopes to arouse thusiasm and have more bers join. It is going to ex- pand soon from all signs and I am glad to see that. The Advertise; Key West Council, which has a! ry strong following among the! ess men, is quite energetic. Their next meeting is next Wed-' lay at Post Office Inn when! important matters of raising $15,000 or to be used in ad-/ ng Key West in the Miami a and thus attracting tourists here will be considered. Tenta-| tive plans for this collection will ready for Council decision. 's advertising Key West ef-) the Council is going to} in whipping up proj-| ects which are attractive to tour- ists. Give them something after] they have come here, seems to be, a motto of this group in thinking of tourist trade. | argic recto: | \ | { e ° POLITICS SHAPE UP One can see politics stirring at this time in county commission and representative races. Various forces are being organized into what appears to be at least two; | where else, ‘ back. gming very vio- | dent in this city, more so than has | been the’ @a&e“in the immediate! past. sit ‘a NEW RESIDENT CYCLE I am going to say something now which is not pleasant to con-! sider but which nevertheless s¢ems to be as salient a cycle as that of women’s fashions in which ‘skirts are cut short and then cut long, cut short and then cut long, First of all, my family once was new to the city, so-called visi- tors, so this is no reflection on anyone. But this is what hap- pens invariably to folks who come to Key West, like the place, want to live here and take an active part in the city. First of all, they are charmed with the little city’s attractions, attractions seen no- ranging from the breadfruit tree to the quaint turtling, industry and all among a pedple derived originally from English and Mediterranean blood, They decide’ that’ ve ely like the city, all ober fea ‘sae standing, ile Hea \e $ hospitable, "tl ee nest > Westet!’ Gre interest When K told that these’ folk ‘are going’ to live here and invest here. Then comes the temporary sad part of this story. These people bring new ideas with them and cus- toms of various other parts of the country. Each wants to fashion here what he has brought from elsewhere. This, of course, will never be. Key West will never be another Washington, Key . West will never be another Okra- pokey, Illinois, e CLASH! Then comes the clash. The new people jnto the city try to organize themselves into groups to try to force ideas ‘over the local’ peo- ple. Goes pp to ‘the Very! béau- tiful blue sie ‘over’ this Bling a howl heard over the’ city:' Be-~ cause '¥dtt Will’ heer De able to force any ‘people anywhere to; do your will.

The second time they come back, they are not so selective in their groups. |'Thev get out and meet Johnny fisherman and Jimmy — business man on an equal basis. Gone is the idea of arbitrary dominance. Then, men meet eye to eye, with good hearts hetween them. Thus Kev West absorbs new ideas. Thus comes a blending of Key. Wester and the peoples from all over the country. Thus comes a blending which'produces a people cosmopolitan to a degree, possess- ed of q Jong range of knowledge. Thus come, ‘hey ew folk ‘into their right{lf-héritage in the island. At present in the rejuvenated city; comnpissjon, pre two so-called “outsiders”, yet I would say that each of these two is now a full- fledged Key Wester and the vote of the people has proven it so How simple the story, how hard to learn the way for many. | SOCIAL CALENDAR SUNDAY Service for Members and Brownies of Troops 4 and 5 at Fleming Street Methodist Church. 7:30 p.m. Informal Dance, Duval Beach USO. 9:00 p.m. KKK MONDAY Eastern Star Installation, Scot- tish Rite Temple. 8:00 p.m. ek & TUESDAY. i Woman's Glub;Meeting, Wom- an’s;Clubhouse; Duval Street.

Duncan, Avenue \E, Captain Callahan was on Corregidor when it fell and was j taken prisoner. He wags released after the occupation of Japan, and was flown to his home in} Alhambra, California. With his wife they drove across country to visit his broth- er in New Orleans and then on to visit his sister in Bainbridge, Georgia. Captain Callahan was station- ed here in Key West at the Naval base two years before it was put into active duty, and remained ane year after. A cocktail party will be given in his honor by Mr. and Mrs. Duncan, Monday night, for all of his old Key ‘West friends. After his visit here, Captain Callahan will report for duty in Miami. Captain and Mrs. Callahan} are, well known in this, city. As ef cormer commanding officer of Key West Base, Captain Caila- ‘han, then a Lieutenant, was re- sponsible for upkeep of the!/ many closed up, naval buildings on the base and was in charge of the big naval radio station in rine information’ and monitored the working frequency of merchant vessels. Mrs. Callahan, a very pretty and popular lady; was also well known here and was hostess at the naval receptions given here then. Just before the war began the Naval Station here was activat-! ed and Captain Callahan was} busy submitting plans for new | construction. Two Patrol Wings! were ‘here‘for ‘a time: and con- struction:was' begun on. the large mbval »harbor and Naval, Ait: S8t&tion,; » i ‘During. the Neutrality Patrol” of these large PBY’S,, two mor ; ) tored: naval patrol. planes, .Cap-{ tain Callahan assisted the naval; here on Neutrality Patrol and finally overtaken by a British cruiser and then scuttled by its own crew. In those. days German subs were spotfed all through the Caribbean by the big PBY’S but since we were not actually at war no action was taken ex- jcept to report.the matter to naval intelligence and higher sources. It was a time when British shipping trying desper- ately to bring oil to England was being sunk. It was a time when rumor ran rife that German submarine commanders had come ashore on the keys and that spies were being landed here. On. Corregidor newspaper re- ports recorded that it was Cap- tain Callahan who sent the last radio message from Corregidor just before the Japs came into the Fort in which he said good- by and God bless you all. Shortly after there were a number of rumors ‘that Captain Callahan j; Had’ been Killed. 4X SUNDAY NIGHT an informal 'dance will be given by the USO club, on ‘Duval starting at 9 o’clock.

Board of Directors on Monday | night at the clubhouse, beginning at 8 o'clock, and Mrs. Dan Navar- rd, ‘president df the organization, urges all members 'to be presént.{ The following is an outline‘ of Colonel Turley’s activities in c | nection with his duties with United States Army: “There was a time we can-all} too vividly recall when those: de- fenses semed pitifully inadequate. German submarines lurked in our home waters and sank defenseless | merchantmen like ducks in a! shooting gallery. Bedragged, burned and oilsoaked survivors were no news to the Red Cross Volunteers. Few nights would pass without the screech of am- bulance sirens haunting our; dreams. ‘Trenches and gun em-/ path on Roosevelt Boulevard. “Islands rose almost overnight as they were pumped from the| deep to house ammunition dumps. and gun emplacements. Key} Westers sometimes wake from sleep with invasion chills as guns boomed far at sea. But these for- bodings never came true because Colonel Turley and others were! feverishly building the outer het- work of defenses for our lifeline, the Panama Canal. They built! in a matter of months airports,| naval bases, supply depots, big! gun emplacements and miracu- lous roads to reach’ them that would have amazed and astound- ed the ancient Romans who had quite, a reputation in that line themselves. “Colonel Turley and men like him were able to perform the imposible because they had the training behind them. Splendid American technical schools turned out engineers in peacetime who! were flexible enough to convert to war when the need arose. “In 1913 Colonel Turley gradu- , 'ated from the University of Il- ley joined the Army in November, 1916, as a second lieutenant in the Coast Artillery. “He served first as an instruc- tor at the Officer’s Training C&mp at Fort Monroe, Va. Trans- ferring to the regular Army, he was sent back to school himself for the next three years. First’ | at the Coast Artillery School and| then taking the Advanced Course at the Command and General Staff School. After this he be- came Professor of Military Science and Tactics at Washington Uni- ; versity in St. Louis, Mo., for four years. This was followed by sev- en years duty in Panama and then}- by assignments to posts through- out the USA. “War again broke out in Europe and as Titler’s victorious armies overran most of the continent our military men watched and stud- in England learning the use of barrage balloons in anti-aircraft defense. He returned to this country and became commandant of Amercia’s first barrage balloon school! “In the midst of this training program came Pearl Harbor. Col. Turley and his men were called on to protect the West Coast from the expected Jap raids. Barrage balloons were needed over every large city, nearsevery aircraft fac- tory ‘and every shipyard. But there was an éven more vulner- able point in our defense—the Panama Canal—so he was sent to Trinidad to build the Army, base there. Following this as- signment he became commandant of the Harbor Defenses of San Juan, Puerto Rico, and assisted in constructing the “Army and Navy base at Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico. While there he also’ rcommanded troops. in Eastern Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands. This was early in 1944. .In De- cember of ‘the same year Colonel: Turley took over the Harbor De- fenses of Key West.” ~ To insure publication, be im the office before 11 o’cluck on the day of om, TELEPHONE OPERATORS WAGE INCREASE.
