SATURDAY, APRIL 21, 1951. HIGH SCHOOL VARSITY TEAM PLAYS CONCH TENNIS STARS Youngsters Challenge Senior Players * To Showdown Match On Navy Courts The old and the young will have it out on the navy tennis courts tomorrow afte’ captained by Earl Yates, meets the high school varsity under Coach Van. The oldtimers are out to cut the’ upstarts down’ to proper size—or so they think. Since Coach Van came to town last year, the high school team’ has ade ‘some seven-league strides toward top notch scholastic competi- tion. Van’s newfangled theories have payed off and, it seems, will take Key West on up the tennis ladder. When the Island . City* met the University of Miami, John and Don Cruz, and Peter Knight all played on the local team and gave a good account of them- selves, Some folks around Key West thought that the} older players might have} done a better job. Tomorrow will tell the story.| Coach Van is sending his best six onto the courts and it’s ce in| that they. will give’ the oldsters| a fight even if they aren’t victor- ious. They will line up this way. John Cruz, Don Cruz, Peter Knight, Tony Dopp. Frank Her-| nandez, and Terry Doughtry. | _ Terry Doughtry, in number six, was a star of the high school basketball team this year. The height that served him so well in that sport gives him added reach nn the tennis court, and that is no small advantage. Recently, he came very close to beating John Cruz.

Even though removed from command of the Far East, the soldier who spoke to the 82nd | Cangress proved to the nation, | that far from being ashamed of | his removal, he still possessed the moral courage to stand up for what he believed to be the rignt course in our Far Eastern s shown:one thing det-; That a study of State D partment policies is most a suredly in order. Too long we have pussyfooted ‘with nations that are and can only be, regard- less of any future appeasement our enemies to the end. For H “ism” that must rely on force power, is in and takes away every right that! a free people should enjoy, can be nothing else, but an enemy of! the United States and the free nations of the world. He has shown to that the poli of colonialism, and the explc tion of foreign countries, is rapid- ly on its way out. For just as day| must follow night, as education and enlightment finds its way} into backward countries, the pe ple must rebel at the yoke around} their necks, even. as our fore-| fathers did, back’in the early! di of this country of ours. He has shown, too, that the countries of the Far East are not really Reds, that their knowledge of the Constitution, the Magna| Charta, or the Bill of rights, and nothing to them. They are -interested in food, clothing, and a full life for their families. | Food is the one real piece of propaganda to defeat the Com munists in their attempt to con. trol the world. For ona_ full stomach man is content, and at} peace with the world. “Oil for the lamps of China,” should be changed to “Rice for the people of China.” Agrarian re- form may possibly be the best solution for these people. Further Red encroachment can only re- sult in a world torn asunder while the Four Horsemen ride rough shod over the bodies of a downtrodden suffering people.

The $30,000 loan for im- provement of Wickers’ Field base- ball stadium though set up in the budget has not been touched yet. The $500 set up for mosquito con- trol drainage in 1951 has not been touched, but the Department has contributed $287 to mosquito con- trol out of its appropriation of $3,200. Largest single revenue increase in 1951’s first quarter compared with 1950 came from scavenger service charges. In 1951 it was $22,129. In 1950 it was only $16,- 404.
