Louis” at the Strand Theatre Dan Dailey hits a new pitch in this story of Dizzy Dean, the raz aledaazie baseball star from the Ozarks whose real name is Jerome and who, with his brother Daffy, managed to keep sportswriters of the late 20's and early 30's supplied with some of the funniest and most the game. The homespun boys from the mountains talked with a drawling twang and no “book larnin” but they spun big league players by the tail, and so does this tale of the elownish Dean. There are some shots of Dailey on the pitcher's | mound which show he really stud- ied the Dean method: the twitched right shoulder, the pawing of the ground, the deliberate rounding of | the ball into the glove, the “look down" at the ground, the eagle-} eyed glance around at the bases, | and then the amazing pitching technique.

FF of $13,119,753, KEY WEST WILL SHORTLY GET-MORE RUNNING WATER. if Francis Whitehair, Undersecretary of the Navy, succeeds in his efforts outlined during his visit here yesterday, to get the Navy Department to install more pumps at key points in the 18-inch main, extending from Florida City to Key West. Representative Bernie C. Papy, who was among the officials who greeted Mr. Whitehair on his arrival here, persuaded him to attend a meeting of the Florida Keys Aqueduct Commission, where he was told of the dire need in Key West for additional water. He said he considered a greater water supply for Key West in the nature of an emergency, and that he would do all he could, stressing Key West as an important Naval Base, to have the department install the booster pumps at an early date. He also said he would recommend at a later date the laying of another main to Key West to assure an abundant supply of ‘water to meet the growing needs of the city. Papy has intimately known Whitehair for 18 years and ardently supported him when he ran for governor of Florida im 1940. After the meeting. they went to Papy’s home, where Whitehair was given a variety of Key West seafood to take back with him to Washington ‘Re-Elect Justice’ B. K.

The body was raked in from the water with a four foot piece of lumber which was still lying on the shore when The Citizen photographer and reporter ar- rived at 8:30 a. m. Fellow shrimpers of the dead man seemed undisturbed by the event. Despite the fleet packed into the Standard Oil harbor, an air of quiet pervaded the billiant, sunny morning, one hour and a half after the discovery of the Chief Deputy Sheriff Tommy Dixon is conducting the investi- gation and following up all leads. He took pictures of the body upon its discovery. Hamlin stressed that his order. ing the autopsy and empanelling the jury was strictly routine. The shrimpers are kept in port at the present time because of the high winds which have made this one of the poorest fishing seasons of the industry. sia: “We've shown our readiness to fight them in the air, on the sea, on land, or under the sea.
