SOCIETY ... PERSONALS... NEWS OF DOROTHY RAYMER, Si1OP HOPPING WITH JAXON Well, what do you know, just four, years ago today the Republic of Korea was formed. And for two of those four years it has been fight- ing for its very life. Quite a fight for one so young I’d say. On the brighter side, the first mMewspaper was printed in Califor- Bia this date in 1846, which could even be called a newsy first. Also the Panama Canal opened in 1914, and Indian Independence was de- slared in 1947, Quite a day in the anniversary department, and also quite a day of Shopping too. xk k August seems to be the month of sales in Conch Town and the Chic Apparel store uptown on Duval is not going to be the ex- ception. In fact some very fine bargains are to be found there. All, but all, dresses, skirts and blouses are being sold at at big 25% off. When | was In there yesterday, @ particularly admired several 00! looking little voile numbers that are dark enough for Fall wearing and breezy enough for the het weather ahead. There are also some very nice nylons, and e@ whole big rack of youthful in those hard to find 24V2 sizes. We've told you at just 75% of the reg- reason for the sale, of » to make room for all the ‘all and Winter merchan- dise to come pretty soon. But in this shopper’s opinion, it’s still much too hot to think of those things right now. * x * In these days of meals prepared in advance and served directly from the refrigerator, it’s well to remember the old rule of hot soup THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Friday, August 15, 1952 Society Editor me The genial man who is friend to all the wild things both great and small always welcomes visitors to come and see his lit- tle creatures. Only if little chil- dren come, would like to have one or both parents along so no one gets hurt — kids or animals. The big news at the Pet Shop today is a litter of four Pekinese cups that just arrived. Those cunning little push faces are the true Kings of Royal dogdom de- spite their size. One look and pugnosed baby faces big liquid eyes will way into your heart, h are real midgets and real prizes. One more note from the Pet Shop before we go: On the bat- tle front, when bad. boys raise cain — they have to be separat- ed, and so with those two big gorgeous parrots at tke Shop. They can only sit and glower now, from separate cages. Too bad we can’t do that with war- ring nations! nek Excerpts from “Neither Birds Nor Bees:" Even if you can put a fire out, there are smoke stains and charred wood, People should never disparage other person’s man of their choice although they are often puzzled by their choice of a man. xk * New businesses in town are al- ways nice to know about and nice to patronize too — especially if they are brand new doughnut shops like the one on Truman Avenue right next to the Victory market called the “‘Rainbo Donut Shop.” Now | am particularly choice See —- ITE‘!S OF INTEREST TO EVRRYONE Trio Of Planners 3 tae i sewers, sewerage disposal | tems, and facilities, garbage and refusal Citizen Staff Photo CITY WILL BUY (Continued rrom Page One) municipalities receiving such tax- es, to the cost, purchase, building, designing, engineering, planning, repairing, reconditioning, altering, expanding, maintaining, servicing and otherwise operating (1) streets, (2) bridges, (3) storm sewers, (4) curbs, (5) drains, (6) gutters, (7) water supplies, (8) sanitary facili- ties and (9) services for the pre- vention, protection or improvement of the public health and safety, in- cluding hospitals, fire stations and fire fighting equipment, sanitary sys- sewerage disposal plants collection and disposal services, fa- cilities and equipment, incinerators and other facilities and services, including street cleaning, inspec- | tions and (10) services for the pro- tection of public health, including , the enforcement of ordinances de- | signed to maintain safe health standards with respect to foods, mosquito, insect and rodent eradi- cation and control, and (11) the removal and abatement of nuisan- ces which may be or constitute dangers to public health, and (12) the exercise of controls for public safety, (13) facilities for the pre- vention of beach erosion, (14) the enforcement of the laws of the State of Florida and municipal or- dinances with respect to public tra- vel, health and safety, and (15) such other functions as are per- formed by municipal governments INTEREST TO WOMEN PHONE: Citizen Office, 1935 POLICE OFFICER (Continued From Page One) thing for me. People will marvel at what I have done and look up to the Great Doctor Von Cosel,” Perez related. Officer Perez also said he saw von Cosel dressed in a black suit stalking through the cemetery at 2 and three in the morning on sev- « caught him opening the vault or causing any disturbance so did not stop him. A second secret surrounding the strange apathy of the family to- - ward what really happened to the body was revealed today when Paul Vasquez, noted shell collector MARGARINE HEIR (Continued From Page One) from a trust fund, Jelke was seized in his apartment on the | fashionable East Side with a young } woman. Liebler said Jelke denied having any part with vice opera- tions. Seven other women and two oth- er men were seized in the series | of raids. None of them was booked immediately. Liebler, who currently is con- ducting a vice probe here, told this story of the raids: Police entered Jelke’s apartment at 155 East 47th St. at 1 a. m. and took him and Sylvia Eder, 24, a blonde model, in custody. In the apartment they found | eral occasions right after the beau- ! tiful Elena died, but he never | put another light on the case. “Von Cosel gave money to her family to. keep, their mouth shut They knew all along that he ha: Elena. But they did not believ: that he abused her body in anyway. They knew he adored her. We were all close friends, and Vor Cosel and I used to have long talk> He was a very smart man, al- though I know he was crazy. He was kind, too. You should have seen the food he used to bring her. And dresses, fine ones, when she lived on United street. I saw her body over at his house but I said nothing because he worshipped her as a goddess and there was noth ing wrong in that. He used to play the organ while I was there and then say, “Now when I play hc favorite piece, look through the gauze curtain and you will see her smile,’ Vasquez recalled, Vasquez said that he had seen the papers and medals which von Cosel kept in a locked box which he proved that he had won them for scientific work in Germany. “Once when we were sitting on a bench out at Butcher’s pen, that’s where the old slaughterhouse was and where he lived before he mov- ed to Flagler, three young naval officers stopped and laughed at the plane. The doctor went into it and brought out this box. He showed the contents to the officers and they stopped laughing. I'll never forget how one of them said, “Well, sir, I take my hat off to you.” Vasquez said that some nights von Cosel would walk all the way LOCALITIES WHO ARE STATE OFFICERS of the BPW club plan an extensive program for delegates of the State organization due in Key West August 22 for a state board meeting, open- ing August 23.

Completed; Visitors To Be Feted Holding its regular meeting a week early, the local Business and Professional Women’s Club met Wednesday evening to com- plete plans for the state board meeting next week, August 23 and 24. With justificable pride in having not one, but two state officers in one year, they enthusiastically seconded the plans submitted by Mrs. Wilhelrnina Harvey, State President; Mrs, Blanche Miller, president of the local club and General Chairman; and Grace Crosby, State Corresponding Secretary, &*————————————— In addition to the already elaborate plans for overwhelm- Coming Events mind, an easy and quick way for your first-course is to add one-half cup of milk or cream and one-half! cup of clam juice to one can of condensed clam chowder.

Serve with oyster crackers or crou- js good, doesn’t it? wx kk course one should never re a store devoted to the of babies and children with a Zoo, but these days it wou'd be hard not to. The rea- son for saying this is because yesterday when the expressman delivered a pile of big boxes at Ideal Togs when they were open- ed, 2 whole zoo-full of Bantam toys rolled out. These are lifelike looking stuff- ed.animals of sheared wool, that even Mom and Dad will admire. They are floppy little fellows with comical expressions and peses and are from fourteen to twenty inches long. Ameng the stuffed roo figures ere dogs, mules, horses, tigers, giraffs, poodles, cats, elephants, Kangaroos, lambs, squirrels, and guess what? Some cute li Kk. and white skunks! Thoroughly deodorized of course. Mes, Baer said that in her own schoo! days, you just hadn't had @ summer vacation until you'd visited the zoo at least once. Well, here you are, and the best part of it is you cen take the roo home with you! Mother would love to have a few in her room, baby will want ene to cuddle, Sis will want to pile them on her bed, and even brother will get a kick eut of some of them. x*xwrk Some more nice people at an- ether favorite Bistro which we would like to mention here and mow, just because they are nice: ‘Way out in the stix — on the bou- Jevard that is, where the cool Breezes blow and the moon and stars put on a special display nightly, to say nothing of those un- earthly visitors, the flying crock- ery, is Ray who dispenses wonder- ful concoctions nightly from behind the bar. As you come in, your hostess Nancy will immediately put young man personally who runs it and he is a fine young family man. What's more he has de- veloped a recipe of his very own for making these doughnuts, and they are much more than good! In fact they literally do melt in your mouth! The Rainbo Donut Shop opened on Wednesday of this week. Due to some unforeseen operating dif- ficulties, they haven't been able to put out all the doughnuts they want to, but in the near future, doughnuts will be fried twice a day, and when you smell that hot sweet brown delicious smell, you'll know it’s time. Too bad Key West can’t be air-conditioned with doughnuts so everyone would know. However, the exact time will be published as soon as things get organized. In the meantime, there are delicious home-made douginuts there, and also pies, cal and pastries from Matchett’s Bakery. x kek We've heard a suggestion for a new college course for women that sounds like a very good idea: A course in how to choose a husband as infallibly as the Navy selects skippers to command its big ships. This is because it takes as much skill to skipper a marriage and the little woman through a happy fifty years as the \{Big Mo” through Hampton Roads. kok * From all indications, the new Boy‘s rtment at the Chil- dren’s Corner is something of a howling success. A few things I'll bet you didn’t know about it is that they have a fine selection of boys’ underwear — any kind you like in sizes up to 16. Also, all kinds of shirts; sport, dress, or polo; all kinds of slacks, shortie pants, socks, and other boys’ ac- cessories. Add new items at the Back to School Headquarters at Chil- dren’s Corner: The beautiful new girls’ dresses there. These are headliners at only $2.98 to $5.98. You'll find all these at the beautiful new re-modeled Store on the corner of Simonton and Fleming Streets. * ing the delegates with Key West’s famous hospitality, Mrs. Harvey announced several more pleasures awaiting the visitors, They will have the unusual priviledge of hearing Rear Ad- miral Irving T. Duke, com- mandant of the Key West Naval Station. Still another addition to the plans is the Honorable Wil- liam C. Lantaff's acceptance of an invitation’ to speak at the Saturday lungheon.

The officer entered a plea of guilty to each of the following MAID’S NIGHT OUT By RAYMER “Born Yesterday” at the San Car- los Theatre. Holiday with laughter, that’s our Judy, the beautiful and supposedly dumb blonde who suddenly discov- ers that she has more than the birdbrain attributed to her. Judy Holiday is superb in the leading feminine role of the comedy. Husky, crude, Broderick Craw- ford, who first hit stardom in “Of Mice and Men,” steals many of the scenes, but this is really Judy’s picture, just as it is her story. She’s the associate of Crawford, a guy who came up the hard way and stays hardboiled when he be- gins to dabble in rackets and poli- tics. Once a junkman, always a junkman, is his unconscious atti- tude. But Judy surprises him, and everyone else by branching out in- to appreciation of the finer things in life. These include William Hol- den. Holden is hired to improve Judy’s social demeanor and enlighten her on some of the cultural aspects of existence. He not only does his job thoroughly, but as a newspaper- man, makes news by exposing the rackets in which the junkman and a Senator are involved. What’s more, he wins the blonde! The farcial note rings with amusement; it also rings with truth. The play was a hit on Broad- way and also in its production here last year by the Key West Players when it enjoyed a two week's run at the Barn Theatre. PHILADELPHIA ATTY. (Continued From Page One) ing that “the request was legally insufficient and therefore was turned down as a matter of rou- tine.” The basis for his ruling, he said, was a Florida extradition law which reads that the extra- dition request must be in writing “alleging that the accused was present in the demanding state at the time of the commission of the alleged crime and that he thereafter fled the state.” According to officials im the capitol, Gov. Fine’s petition fail- ed to contain this allegation. “There is no pending appli- cation for extradition,” Bowen explained, “but they are at lib- erty to send down new papers. We will pass on them when they get here. They may be on their way here now.” Bowen added that Florida law permits the holding of a fugitive for a reasonable time pending extradition. Attorney Albert D. Hubbard of Miami, who, with M. Ignatius | cated, profanity and driving with- out an operator's license. naldo also revoked Baker's drivers’ license as required by state law on the intoxicated driving count. Following his arrest, Baker was said to have become argumenta- tive upon his arrival at the police station for a drunkometer test. Parolman Richard Brodhead told j of bow Baker punched him when |he was removed from the patrol wagon. According to police the Navy man also maintained a pro- fane tirade during his overnight stay in the city jail. The flyer at first accused the police of hitting him first but the palities. The Supreme court of this state, in Pensacola v. Fillingim, Fla., 46 So. 2d. 876, held that the establish- ment of a recreational pier and auditorium was not within the above mentioned statute. Although a municipality has or may be granted power and authority to es- tablish and operate wharves, docks and piers (63 C. J. S. 683, Section 1055 and cases cited) we find noth- ing indicating that such facilities are usually performed by the state and counties. We find no satisfac- tory legal evidence that such fa- cilities are in the same classifica- tion as streets and bridges forming a part of a state road or highway; although it is stated in 63 C. J. S. 683, Section 1055, that “a public wharf on a navigable stream, con- nected with public streets and in a sense an extension of such streets, is ‘in the eyes of the law a public highway,” such statement is sup- ported by only one case. It has been held that a state or county may own and operate docks and wharves (68 C. J. 205, Section 5 and 56 Am. Jur. 1082, Section 23); how- ever, it is doubted that the opera- tion of such facilities are general in this country. Docks and wharves not being within any of the express provi- sions of subsection (5) of Section 210.03, Florida Statutes, we are un- able to say from the authorities that such facilities are clearly within the purview of said statute by implication. We, therefore, feel that the question is a judicial one that should be determined by the courts upon proceeding for decla- ratory decree or in a bond valida- tion proceeding. Yours very truly, RICHARD W. ERVIN ATTORNEY GENERAL Lester is conducting the Switz’ fight against the charges, flew to Tallahassee to appear on Switz’ behalf. Rumors that Switz’ life may be in danger were confirmed by Pa- nati when he said that their in- vestigation had uncovered the fact that when Switz fled the state to avoid testifying before a Philadelphia Grand Jury, he had at least $70,000 in cash with him. Seme of this money may have belonged to his associates in the numbers racket which would make them “very unhappy,” ac- cording te Panati. “We know that Switz was in the high echelons of the numbers racket in Philadelphia. It is like 2 jig-saw puzzle and this man fits in.” In commenting on the upcoming hearing, in which Switz’ attorneys will file for a writ of Habeaus : gain a reduction in the $50,000 bail which Corpus in an attempt to has been set for Switz, Panati said: loaded .38 caliber revolver. in Jelke’s powder-blue Cadillac con- vertible, parked outside the apart- ment, was a loaded .32 caliber au- tomatic pistol. Jelke admitted own- ing the guns but he had no per- mits for them. Jelke’s father, oleo king John F. Jelke, Chicago, sold his 25 million dollar a year business to Lever Brothers Co. in 1948. Officials said his mother was Mrs. Ralph Teal, Danbury, Conn., divorced from the ; elder Jelke. Young Jelke was one of the Bachelors Club of America, whose membership includes a number of New York playboys. He was con- sidered one of society’s most eli- gible bachelors. = brilliant although unbalanced. Only the death of the 83 year old Karl Tanzler, alias von Cosel, un- sealed the lips of Key Westers who knew the intimate details of the bizarre case, from its very be- ginning over 21 years ago.
