Fishing Tourney’s Start With Service city which have conducted a sun- the event |rise service on Easter morning for night. many years, Lee Mason, director: of the 1947 Key West Internation- al Fishing Tournament, announc- ed today that the previously an-! at the ‘meunend service at Bayview Park day shifting to northerly over to open the observance of Jose |Marti Week has been with drawn. Mason said that he is greatly ciation in thinking that the tour- jMament was offering ‘“compe- tition” to the long-standing serv- ice which has been conducted He stated that it was the intention of the tour- |nament committee from the be- ginning to merely furnish the background for the service, with the churches having complete charge of the religious aspects. Included in the “background” planned were a 60-foot cross, a 100-voice choir, a military band from Cuba, special lighting ef- fects and other features. Mason said it would be fool-, hardy to continue with these’ plans unless the wholehearted | support of the churches was be-| hind them. The cost of bringing the features planned would have been considerable, and to have both the scheduled community service at the submarine base and! the Bayview Park service injured | by split attendance is a deterrent | | factor. Instead, Jose Marti Week will, p m., tomorrow at the gym {be opened later 4n the day, with | special attractions to be announc- | ed shortly. | High School Band | Plays For P.-T, A.
