NEWS OF INTEREST TO WOMEN ITEMS OF INTEREST TO EVERYONE DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor PHONE: Citizen Office, 1935 SHOP HOPPING WITH Hello again, here we are back on the old Rock, and very happy about the whole thing. It’s nice to go away, and nicer still to come back home again. You re- visit all the old familiar scenes and walk through the beloved rooms with the feeling of redis- covery. So hello, again and again| to New York, Mrs, Baer and agaix. — we're so glad to see | you! Much to our surprise, are no anniversaries to celebrate, no birthdays of note. This must be just one of those days that no one worthwhile thought worthwhile to be bor on or do | anything important on. Guess T'll have to note .t on my calen- dar and just set out to do some- thing on May 19th besides ar- riving back home, Yesterday was a big day — for all of us citizens — It was I Am An American Day and was celebrated in . big way up in Central Park in New York. That is really an awe inspiring sight, when a million people jai public park, most of them newly arrived Americans to pledge themselves to a new country, and a new ard bigger + life. When you see tha* you know th... the Reds, the Com- there | of flying. Well, back of the broom was that delightful little lady who has \een running the Ideal Togs place so successful- ly, and she gave me the dirt! Sometime right after the first of June, and soon after she returns from a buying trip is planning on opening the doors at 514 Duval St. on Ideal Togs. So the old place will sell Chil- dren’s wear, and it seems somehow right. However, first it’s going to get a much needed face lifting. New decorations, new fixtures, new floor coverings until you won't recognize it! We're glad, and we want to wish Mrs. Baer all the luck in the world in her new location, Cheers, honey! kook % Pack a lunch and go to Europe by coach plane! Sounds quite crazy, but effective this month, rates of American airlines oper- ating to the Continent — and al- so of lines you would use while there — are the lowest in his- tory. On-season coach travel now costs less than off-season rates of {other years. The same planes will be used, but you won't get food or trimmings. munists, don’t have a chance here, if we just all join together as if on the Mall at Central Park and make up our minds to keep ‘em out! Kh ke One thing you can": when you walk into Gift House is the super way that all the delicious looking mer- chandise there is displayed. This is partly the work of the gals who run the joint, and partly due to the artistry of Caroline ‘Morrison who keeps shop there too. Last time we were there we were particularly taken by @ big piece of driftwood draped with coral covered fish net — and all hung with odd costume jewelry pieces. This just seem- ed right for Gift House and we think it is the cleverest. dain- tiest, and most appropo display of this or any other season. A large piece of /hite coral from Raul's displays the new seisal straw jewelry. This Mor- rison gal is quite a gal when it comes to artistic urrange- ments, xk k If your daughter wants a col- lege scholarship, her chances for one are worth investigating. Al- most 4 million dollars worth of scholarships went unclaimed last year.

Well, the room- jest, prettiest, gayest and most convenient ones to be found are those made of straw, and we want to go on record here and now| as recommending Key West's own Ditty Box for these bags, The ones here are soft as a kitten’s ear, and as useful as- can be. They are made of some kind of straw that is adaptable to the same uses as most fab- rics, Gathered or pleated or tied in knots, {t makes ufeful articles, and pretty too! Don’t forget, Mr. Lovell is due back any day, and you will find things more wonder- ful than ever at Ditty Box.

The situation is an interesting one and could have been much more effective if the producer had not chucked in too much humor. The story is a true one, based on a best seller of a year ago, written by Donald Powell Wilson. Millard, John Beal and assorted character actors have a holiday with a lot of ham in the prison stew, but the picture does have its merit with some insight into the minds of criminals allowed some- times overpower the corny humor. Most exciting is the attempted pri- son break when a psychopathic kill- er decides to use “The Doc” as hostage. The background music is at times overwhelming. There should be a new order against too loud mood music. A prison scene doesn’t need a build-up with fancy symphony fanfare.

The Juniper fired shots into the Parnell yesterday and then towed her until she sank. The Parnell is out of Punta Gorda. Crew members on_ her who spent two and one-half days on their oil-drum life raft are W. E. Parnell, Robert J. Reese and Columbus Dunlove. They were the only men aboard the boat. They are reported in good condition and will arrive with the Juniper in Key West tonight. The men were picked up about eight miles north of where the hull of the Parnell was sighted, and 170 miles west of the spot from which they radioed they were abandoning their sinking ship. The 55 foot boat had pulled out ofFort Myers for a shrimping expedition when it met its fatal trouble. The Coast Guard PBY directed the Juniper to the men’s raft by radio after it dropped the rubber life raft. A number of different pairs of ce lored lights, if seen together, will produce white light.
