The Growers are com- ing here to open the Key West morrow and will offer the Coneas a gredt opportunity to displav their ability. Coach Paul Worley, of trie Homestead Growers, will-start his star moundsman, James Brown, against the Conchs to get the sea- json underway. Accept Brown’s tosses will be Charles Martin. | The rest of the Grower lineup wil probably be something like this: Donald Neely, first bage; Bobby Morgan, second base; James Bray, third base; Mabry Scarborough,’ shortstop; Gene Reynolds ,rightfield; Toroise, centerfield; + ‘Doyle Keen, leftfield. dn‘ reserve forthe Growers iwill as $I be: Joe Reynolds, ‘Wade.

FIRST PLANS (Continued from Page One) cation when % came to his depart- ment. . lows: To own and construct toll bridges over the long water gaps of the Overseas Highway. To purchase and sell real es- tate and personal property. To borrow money from the United States and from the State of Florida. To exercise all rights in any real estate acquired. To carry op a general merchan- dising business. To acquire real estate and toll bridge franchises and to general- ly perform or make contracts of any kind to obtain the objectives of the Corporation. The principal office of business was authorized to be in Miami with the privilege of having branch offices within or without the State. Only in one respect did the Overseas Bridge Corporation meet with opposition. That was from George J. Rosenthal of Chi- cago who some time before haa been gtanted a franchise or a franchise option by the Commis- sioners of Monroe County. That option ‘with several exténsions or renewals’ covered a period of} | over two years and was dated to terminate December 31, 1932.| | Before the last renewal had ex- pired Mr. Rosenthal filed with the county commissioners a paper which he called a bond made in the sum of $500,000, and he be- gan action to have declared in- valid the frarichise the State Road Department had granted the Cor- poration. Mr. Rosenthal was successful in the first ease but the Bridge Cor- poration returned the fire and instituted quo warranto proceed- ings in the Supreme Court to have the option decelared null and void. Handing down a deci- sion five to one, the Supreme Court found the Rosenthal option invalid and the Chieago man stepped out of the picture and was not heard from, so far as the construction of: the projected long bridges was concerned. Roosevei: Taker Helm By that time things were mov- ing swiftly in Washington. Frank- lin’ D. Roosevelt’ had: been inau- gurated ‘President and he show-| ed in a brief time that he was aman of action who wanted act- ion in the ‘program he and his advihad preparedesr sany,,,, 5» objective of sputting,an end to the depréssion.s © 2 TE : Basis sof that program lay in the creationrof a Beard of Public Works with ai appropriation of the stupenduous sum of $3,300,- 000,000. In order to meet the re- quirements of this new phase of affairs the Overseas Bridge Cor- poration, on the best legal advice obtainable, decided to disband and replace itsélf with a body to be known as the Monroe County Toll Bridge Commission. This commission was created by a law that passed the Legislature through the efforts of State Sena- tor Arthur Gomez and State Rep- resentative William V. Albury. Directly afterwards sanction of the new commission wa sobtained in Washington through Represen- tative J. Mark Wilcox, supported. by Senators Park. Trammell and Duncan, U. Fletcher.
