By RAYMER Back In the late twenties and early thirties, when “Joe Co% first became an American slang term and “collegiate” was not only a word which described a strata of society, but a popular song, teenagers were called shieks and flappers and later co-eds and eampus cowboys. I just missed the flapper-shiek version of Flam- ing Youth, as it was known, and entered into a more serious era when girls were career minded. &- Well, times haven't changed much since then insofar as the attitude of the present younger generation is concerned. In talk- ing to a dozen or so recent high school graduates, it is obvious that they are aware of the tur- Dbulent state of the world and are approaching problems in the Atomic age with calm, deliberate views, tempered, thank heavens, with the spirit of enthusiasm. With the seriousness and sense @f determination, there is that youthful verve which makes for wonderful adaptation of life and its challenge. For example, there's oung Hoke Holcomb, of 504 | Sane street, 17 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. H. S. Holcomb who left Tuesday for Duke Uni- versity. He was president of the 1952 June Senior class at the| Key West High School. He en- yolled in the pre-medical col- lege at Duke. Said Hoke, “I know I picked a tough row to hoe. It takes nine years; but medicine is the most interesting field in my | mind, and Duke has one of the better medical schools. I'm going} to do my best.” Football captain of the high school team, 18 year old Kenneth Bazo, son of Miguel Bazo, 808 Margaret street, entered the pre- engineering course at Florida Gtate University. He was award- ed a football scholarship and is off to training early. Vice-president of the Senior ¢lass, Armando Henriquez, son of Ralph Henriquez. of Porter Place, will also enter Florida State Uni- versity at Tallahassee. He choose physical education as his major study. Civil weasgecgggeed which John K. out. He is the Mrs. C. P. Curry. Lane. John, who is 19, has been | employed in the typographical | department at The Citizen with his father, foreman and a brother, € Percy Curry, Jr, now with S. Marine Corps over in be at FSU \ will also be in the University circus as a hand-balancer. Credit for physical education is given such hardy adventurers when the circus goes on tour. Shopping sprees by several young ladies have been part 3 the excitement of getting readi for college. But the accent was not on wardrobes when the girls who arrived for interviews talked about the immediate fu- ture. June Yates, energetic daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Yates, 1205 Von Phister street, is going to take up journalism at Florida State University. She pitched right in at a preliminary sample job and helped get the facts {from the other students who ap- peared at The Citizen office for this feature. She edited the high school annual this past year and certainly shows writing as well as executive ability. Edyth Hampton, 17, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Allan Hampton, 1122 Seminary street, is the only girl from Key West's June class who is setting out for business education at Brenau College, | Gainsville, Georgia. She was president of the National Honor Society here. Alert Edyth said she expected her first studies to be mainly a review of commer- cial courses but that accounting and merchandising were two ; subjects new to her which she is anxious to learn. She leaves September 12 and expects her cousin, who has the same in- terest, to join her next year. Art and design is the choice of Nancy Watkins, 18, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, J. N. 1433 Reynolds street. Nancy will join the large group attending Florida State U. The girls said that Speer had already left major in music at the Conservatory of Music. Miss Speer is a graduate of CMI. Nancy Sawye: one of her classmates, has already gone to work in the book-keeping department of the is the field Curry has picked son of Mr. and| , 321 Peacon | Aileen also are Ws son of Mr, ter Walterson, Sr. od on ti ginia D; one of companied her father, thony Dropp and hi another point of will doubtless c cation.

He leaves September 12. His parents are Mr. and Mrs. George H. Nodine of 2007 Seiden- berg avenue. Eugene Roberts who was president of the Student Council at the Key West High School heads for Florida Southern at Lakeland, Fla., on September 20. He expects to be a teacher and will probably major in history, his favorite subject. Eugene lives at 621 Catherine Lane. Georgia Institute of Tech- nology claims two Key West boys, Homer Herrick, Jr., and Don Bernreuter. Don is 17 and livés with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John P. Bernreuter, Sr., Qtrs. C. A., U. S. Naval Station. He takes off September 19 for a high flying course of study, aero- nautical engineering. Homer Her- rick, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Herrick, Sr., 1401 Reynolds street, will also begin the rigors of aeronautical engineering at Georgia Tech. Holder of the Senatorial Schol- arship for 1952, 17 year old James Cooper, will study civil engineering at the University of Florida. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. James Cooper, 93-1 Poin- ciana Place. Other students same college are Roy Butler, | Raymond Rothfuss, Xavier San- chez and Art Di Lallo. From a brief file obtained through courtesy of the Key West High School the following recent members of the Senior class and their prospective schools are listed Lorenzo Murguia, University. Roger Cole, U. Janet Brown. Tony Barrera, FSU, Bill Neblett, FSU. Jose Padron U. of Florida. James Baker, FSU. Billy Osterhoudt, FSU. The percentage of this crop of | this year’s graduates who will continue higher education is not only high but gratifying. These young people are not only look- jing into the future with hope | but are preparing for it with clear-eyed purpose. Wish them well! Fordham of Florida Fleet Reserve Auxiliary Gives N. H. Ward Party A “Ward” party was held at the U. S. Naval Hospital on Wednesday evening by Unit 56 Ladies Auxil- lary of Fleet Reserve | Hostesses were Mesdames Helen Shaw, acting chairman, Helen Cas. tagna, Ella Morton, Mildred Rob- ison, and Rosine Weir.

I was given a neat, officially | stamped card proclaiming me ap- | pointed honorary member of the USS Sea Dog Sub League Softball Team. For all the details see to- morrow’s feature story. Right now, all ! could possibly do at a game | is stand wobbling on a bleacher | and toss in an opening ball. If anyone asked me to run from first to second base I'd have to beg off. for over 15 years in houses with no second stories, I’m not used to stairs, let alone ladders that go straight up or down. And yester- day, I boarded the Sea Dog and went below. Now I can appreciate the work the officers and crew did when they were hosts to the ladies of | the recent BPW _ convention! Comdr. James Elliott, the skipper | j and Lt. Al Benadetti lowered me down the hatch. The rest is hist- ory! If anyone ever tells you that submariners don't get much ex- ercise, put Scotch tape on their mouths. Today the “‘gams’”’ feel as if I'd been an entry in the Olympic games without a warm- up. I keep listening for creaks. But read tomorrow’s feature of the visit for loaded info. TEXAS BORN and raised Bob Smith, one of the new members of the Key West Players, came in with three other actors for a pic- ture yesterday.
