Ward Cooper is an alumni of Citizen Staff Photo AT THE RECEPTION held last evening at the San Carlos Insti- tute in honor of Cuba’s Armed Forces Day, two people were especially happy. They are Lt. Comdr. and Mrs. H. Cancio Gon- zalés who were married less than a month ago. The groom had to report immediately for duty with his ship the “Maximo Gomez” on which he is second in command. The observance of Armed Forces Day for Cuba permitted time for the bride to fly to Key West from Havana for a reunion with her husband. They were among the honored guests of the distinguished as- sembly last night of local officials and Cuban naval officers, Southernmost Stanford Indians Form “Group Grope” Of Alumni; Want Men Lt. Cdr. W. G. Stearns, Jr., U.S.N., turned in an interesting re- port this morning about Stanford Indians in Key West. Known as “Chap” to friends, Stearns found that five Stanford Indians had pitched camp in Key West, and he and the group hope to discover more of the tribe here. re 2 col cut to come At a recent pow-wow, Stearns who was graduated. from Stan- ford University in 1940, found that Initial Harris School PTA Meet Slated Tuesday The first meeting of the Harris School PTA will be held Tuesday, September 9th at 8 p. m. at which time, the members of the school board, the faculty, and the ex- ecutive board will be introduced to the parents. Mrs. Geraldine Franklin will give a report on the Teacher's Summer School Institute. President Glenwood Sweeting urges all parents to attend and promises to keep the meeting short and lively. Parents may also become further acquainted with the teachers at the social hour directly following the meeting. 1948, that Midid Sawyer Bevis and Nancy Golan Thornbough were of the class of 1949; and Charles Thornburgh (Nancy’s chief) is an ex-Stanfordite of 1947. Lt. Cmdr. Stearns said the group met recently to “compare notes and discover how so many of us eould have strayed so far from Palo Alto, Calif.” His communique continues: “We talked of Lake Lagunita at Spring quarter, Dinah’s, L’Omelette, Ricky’s, The Sky Line and the charm of the ‘Farm’ ad infinitum. Our evening of reminiscence was such a success that we decided to form another Southernmost, this time the Southernmost Stanford Alumni Club.” The tally of Stanford Indian “Farmers” and Farmerettes” on this “‘sunblastea coral pile” is wanted by first council of five. If any others are in the vicinity, please call Chuck or Nancy Thorn- burgh at 1933 (Raul’s) and leave name and address. Next time the group meets in what Stearns terms “a group grope”’, any other Indians will be notified by a card or telephone. Since the present members are all married, non- Stanford braves and squaws who: are married to ites are al- so accepted into the tribe. “They can congregate in a cor- ner,” advised Stearns, “and talk over where they are from.” Recruiters For Army, Air Force Here Next Week Veterans with problems concern- ing the obtaining of mustering-out Pay or combat-duty pay from any of the Armed Forces will be pro- vided competent assistance and the proper forms for making ap- Plication at ‘the Post Office building in Key West next Monday and Tue day, September 8 and 9.

Percy Curry, Jr. At Destination Newsy letter from C. Percy, Cur- ry, Jr., employee of The Citizen who is now in the U. S. Marine Corps, brings word of his arrival overseas, August 30. Young Curry writes that he land- ed in Japan at Kobe and will be there three days before leaving for Korea. The trip over took 15 days. Notes Curry, a Key West Is- lander, “I don’t think there is en- ough flat land here to drive a car around in. All { can see is moun- tains, and I mean big mountains.” At a point 9,000 miles from home, Curry adds, ‘‘and still further to go. Now I am one day and 12 hours ahead of you all back home. It is Saturday, August 30 here, but it is Friday where you are. I sure miss home today, All I can see when I look over the side of the ship is mountains and strange look- ing People. The place seems dirty too. “Junior” drew guard duty, so no liberty for him although 700 air Marines and See-Bees left the ship which he observes, ‘‘won’t be so crowded now.” Two days of bad weather en route brought no rain. Japan, he writes is very hot at this sea- son, much hotter than in Key West. “It’s a dry heat and you can’t get any relief.” Curry sends regards to the news- paper gang and promised to write ther, BY-LAWS BY HS-1 O.W.C.

Eyen the fickle little trickle of wa- ter we have been getting lately is comparatively wonderful. As Mr. Ertzman went there as a teacher of high school subjects, he was rather surprised to'find he had to start out teaching as in the first grade. . . . (Some- where along that point this reporter | got the impression that in Afghani- stan they do not recite, “Mary had a little lamb.” but. instead, ‘Mo- hammed had a little Mutton.”) Floyd Norman, also a guest, had some good paintings of some of the places Ertzman spoke. _ A Board of Directors meeting was held before the meeting ad- journed and it was unaminously voted to help the Keyettes in thir fund raising projects in any way that th Sinawik Clubs’ help was needed.

Read the Classified Ads SATURDAY Nylon, Rayon, MAID’S NIGHT OUT By RAYMER “The Mob” at the San Carles Theatre Big, burly, brusque Broderick Crawford isn’t a handsome man. He has a face like a Boxer dog's and a build like a wrestler's. But there are some roles in which he excels. His topper was as Lonnie in Steinbeck’s “Of Mice and Men.” In the current offering he’s an arm of the law who blunders on to a murder and blunders into letting the gunman go when the murderer tosses a detective’s badge over his shoulder. Believing the killer is an officer of the force, Brod sim- ply allows him to walk away from the scene. In amends, he is assigned the tough job of underground investi- gation with the killing which is tied up with longshoremen and a racket. Brod has: just beeome en- gaged to a nurse (she’s registered but has to be practical) The ro- mance angle doesn’t intrude save when his girl is captured by the mob ruler and held as hostage. Waterfront scenes, rough, characters, some brutal rows, in- side technique of how an investi- gation is conducted and how a rac- ket gang works make for plenty of plausible, too, and there are a few scattered laughs in the kialogue. No world-breaker in smooth con- tinuity, the story is a little jumpy, but it maintains suspense and in- terest.
