Instinctive-| ped when this proposi-| to light, then as we} to more and more each contributing his facts, letters to; the editors pouring in, we began to nble the facts and smack-; ¢d the proposition between the; eyes. Yesterday Publicity Chair-| man Enrique Esquinaldo of the! Lions Club announced to The Citizen that he would ask the Lions Club to shut off the poll Now again this wasn't solely our er, it was just that we were on the right track people behind u the hardest editorial punch you| can is that on the hard, and fast, clearly seen, black print} white paper of a newspaper. . ° POSSIBLE MERGERS d With the reorganiaation’ of the; 4 Chamber of Commerce in_ the} twind, the Advertise Key West! Coiinc now looking toward eventual merging with the! Chamber and this is as it should be. There will be no merger at} this time because the Council) has many projects in the hopper} and are going right ahead with! them. Another possible’ merger! is with the rapidly rising Hotel} ociation which is responsible} y Night Winter Vis one of the most als since the war Council right now} g on a project to furn- sightseeing bus for Naval] sonnel to acquaint them with| what there is in Key West.| was a horrible example ating ~with the Navy Council this time is on| as getting the boys in out the city in the; places and getting them to local folk.

There was plenty of good fun and fellow- ship between the Navy and the local folk then. Did you know that a ships dropping in here wrote that this was one of the best j liberty ports on the east cou and that never anywhere on the! ast coast did the ships receive such hospitality. Well, | my thought is that we should have those monthly or cally and suppiement this with invitations by local folk invit- ing the sailor boys out to din- ner. ° e DANCE, HOME COOKED DINNER Put it anyway you like, those are the two main recreations of the sailormen, first having a dance to look forward to and then enjoying a real home-cook- dinner from time to time. Boy, this would be the old hos- pitality town again! It is the jsame sort of thing which is be- ing worked up slowly for tour-} ists here. An ideal way to run ; the affair would be to have one club sponsor a dance every two weeks:and then to have the club members pledge themselves to a certain number of dinners and then invitations sent out to | captains of ships, and submarines here and ,to €O’s of shore based units. It is the*closest way to get. to the heart of servicemen. A big help’ to work with al- are tine four USO units here which are a fine factor for | building service morale. e ; COIN DIVING Attempts are’ being made to have the Sunday coin diving contests held off the Clyde Mal- lory Docks if permission of the avy can be held or even off the Stock Island bridge which county property. This way there will be no trouble on private property. e e GOES TO WASHINGTON State Representative, Bernie | Papy will leave for Washington in the next few days. Many of | the Projects hanging fire for Key West, ‘in Washifigton | will be looked into. e NAVY FUTURE HERE. Her a release from Senator Pepper’s office on an jnterview with Admiral Nimitz’ regarding the Navy Base here: ,“Considera- tion, is being igivén at'the pres- ent time to redesigning’ thé nayal operating base-at Key~West sas. naval--base, -a~ change which would not affect the activities the local command, structure”, Nimitz said. It is to be noted that Captain C. E. Reordan was in Washington the past week. Thus it is definite that NOB will be continued in operation though there may~ be changes. a e e COUNTY COURT HOUSE (Whitehead and Southard) On the square on which this building stands first religious worship in Key West was held. It was for all demoninations. Marriages are performed, births recorded and the dead buried. The present building was con- structed in 1889. In 1934 Key West was declared bankrupt and turned oyer to the federal govetnment ‘in ‘this building. Later when tourists began to pour’ into the city the city took of itself “again. From 1838, when the first U. S. Court was established -until 1870,. pic- turesque wrecking salvage cases came up beiore the body in con- nection with divisions of goods lvaged from the scores of ves- sels wrecked on the reefs and brought ashore by the fleet of Key West wrecking schooners.
