ABABA RALAAABAAAABA BABA AAAAE HIGHWAY STARTER SHOP The Got Club really wants to a starter shop facing directly on the Highway and this is most splendid. English-type high roof houses, with circular driveway in and out, usually grace the entrances to most golf lubs throughout the country and is could be a fine addition to 1 course.

He keeps boosting the stories} on the workers and also pointing out to them the entertainment | here and at their Civilian Beach Club, which is a mighty nice place | plunked right in smack of a pret- | ty pier and one of the clearest | white sand bars you could imag- ine. e ° SHIPYARD WORKERS There have been some who complain about the Navy and the pranks of many of the naval personnel and of the indecencies of some few. There are some, | too, who are against the type of | person symbolized as “shipyard| w But right now I find} the civilian type of worker in! | Key West or a high calibre. Per- | haps during the war there were | some not too desirable but they | seem to have gone away.

The city manager | is responsible for getting out the] work and keeping within the budget but when a “policy” ques- tion along a certain line of rea- soning comes up City Manager King presents it to the Commis- sion along with his recommenda- tions and then it is up to the city fathers how they wish to shape | the city’s course. Thus a weak city manager could blame the Commission for many evils but a | strong city manager shoulders | the policy and does the best he ae with it if it is not too good. ° ° ) | MRS.
