The City Commission was split in half on the dog track issue when it discussed it a couple of months ago. Mayor C. B. Harvey and Com- missioner Jack Delaney said that they would have voted for the referendum because the city might as well obtain the revenue —(They personally oppose a dog track in the city), Commissioners Delio Cobo and John Carbonell said they opposed the track. Sidney Aronovitz who appear- ed before the Commission on that night said he interpreted their discussion to mean they did not want the track in the city. The race track men then approached the subject. If the voters decide yes, the Mayor Harvey and Delaney) had both said that the placing of} the race track outside city limits | on Stock Island, will not prevent { the race track atmosphere withm | the city of Key West. Their/ reasoning was that if the city! has to put up with the disad-/ es of a race track, it might! as well have the advantages. | RDC R Si hc | n elephant can weigh | and 8 tons when ma-| Dr. J. A.

There her energy persisted and a rough time was had by all. She cooled off in the cooler from Monday until today when Criminal Court Judge Thomas Caro gave her the fine, and a fatherly talk. “I think we put some fear into her,” the Judge said. “I don't think she'll try that again.” Veteran of the battle, Walden, j deserves a medal for patience, Despite the attacks on him from the woman, he never used his own superior strength to quiet her. He brought her back alive and still kicking to stand trial as she did today. Other cases in court were tame by comparison.

James Hagen was fined five dol- lars for having an improper dri er’s license, NOTICE OF UNPAID DELINGU: PROPERTY TAX PERSONAL as provided by Chapter 23374, Act of 1945, notice is hereby given that ersonal property taxrs assessed Peginning with Febr cent per month plus the proportions Unless the amounts set opposite eac! issue ersonal property of the tax payer for unpaid ta: e names of delinquent personal p y of June, warrants will e of the nd addition .) costs pena for such taxi 1981 are now delinquent and are drawing interest of 1 per cost of publishing . this e h name below are paid before the thereon directing levy upon erty tax payers and the amount of taxes, including the cost of adver- tising and Five months penalty are as follows: Hilary Albury...
