SEA SCOUTS PLAN (Continued From Page One) local exercises with Squadron Four submarines, The Sea Scouts have received permission from the Commander of Submarine Atlantic Fleet and Com- mander of Squadron Four to parti- cipate in the exercises, Ship 250 is planning a two day cruise for October 4 and 5, CAR PLUNGES (Continued from Page One) car had still not been recovered in the rushing waters. The tide took it out 50 feet from shore. Patrolman Wilder informed of the accident rushed up the Keys, followed by Sweeting’s wrecker at 1:00 a.m. this morning. They work- ed until 3 a.m, trying to get the ear on land. Once they succeeded when one of the foursome who were on the fishing party tied a cable around |the trunk lid of the submerged car and it was pulled up to the bank. The Chrysler slipped off, however, into the drink once more. Today in daylight Sweeting ex- pects more success, The names of the ear owner, a | young woman, and her escort were not known at this writing, nor were the married couple on the party with them identified by the high- way patrol or Sweeting’s garage. It was the married couple, who us- ing their own car, drove to the toll gate and called the highway patrol. The young man escorting the car owner went into the rough water to tie the rope around the car, The car was in 12 feet of water early this morning. At low tide the job of retrieving it should be easier, Sweeting’s garage said, AUTO INSPECTION (Continued From Page One) Armed Forces and that if members of this branch of the service donate blood on October 6 and 7 they ean ‘ specify that it be kept for use by their families in case of emergen- cies. being held at the Monre | General Hospital for 21 days all blood will be sent to the Miami bank and credited to the Key West bank, “We hope to develop the bank | to such an extent that there will always be blood and plasma avail- able,” Dr. Hers said.

Mrs. Neil Knowles, last year’s cookie committee chairman, |the Junior Hostesses of the USO|7:30 O'clock in the Scottish Rite | agreed to take over the job again this year. Mrs. Robert Dopp accepted thex. chairmanship of the program committee and Mrs. Harry John- son, Mrs. Thurman Sands, Jr.,| , and Mis. Delio Cobo are dividing the responsibility of the refresh- ment committee. No representa- tive of the Mariner Troop No. 8, the only Senior Troop here, being at the meeting, it was hoped that these older Scouts would help |} with the program and refresh- ments. Mrs. Judy Parrish, Leader of Troop 11, Spark Plug and Editor |} of “Scouting Around,” the Girl|" Scout Edition of the paper last | 5. October, will be missed this year, due to that old Navy habit, of|} transferring personnel. Mrs. Par- rish will be missed not only by]; her troop, but by the members} of the Association, who welcomed |: in|, her enthusiastic participation Girl Scouting and her practical ideas. Mrs. Virginia Stearns and Mrs. Katherine Toth, have vol- unteered to keep Troop 11 going until the sponsors can find some- one to take Mrs. Parrish’s place. Theme of Girl Scout Week in Key West this year will be che need of more adult participation in the Scout Program. As usual, every troop has a waiting list of girls who want to be scouts. But — as every Brownie Troop in the city have Brownies ready to “Fly Up,” and the Intermedia‘e Troops, few and overcrowded as they are must make room for Brownie “Fly Ups”, the situation is serious. The Leaders reported a very successful summer swimming session. Through the co-operation of the Navy, the scouts were given the use of the Seaplane Base Enlisted Men’s Pool on Wednesday mornings. There was an average attendance of fifty girls using the pool and fifteen Swimmer Badges were earned. Mrs. Neil Saunders, who took the Camp Directors Course in Blue Ridge, N. Carolina this summer, made a very brief report on the course and the requirements of a Girl Scout Camp. Mrs. Saunders suggested that as it did not seem that the camp site that was pro- mised he scouts would be available, a camp. A motion was so made and carried without one dissenting vote. It was felt by the Leaders that if they had the land the peo- ple of this community will help build a camp, Mrs. Robert Dopp, Mrs, Neil Knowles and Mrs. Neil Saunders were appointed to a com- mittee to look for land for a camp site for the Girl Scouts. Any help or suggestions as to available land will be eagerly wel- comed by this committee, but re- member, the funds are limited, CHAMBER POLL (Continued from Page One) Westers appear on the primary slate, over 300 ballots were mailed out, since many businessmen hold multiple membership in the Cham- ber, and they receive one vote for each membership they subscribe for. Eight new Director will be elect- ed to fill vacancies that will be created on October 7th by Deli Cobo, Joe Pearlman, J. Y | IV, Aquilino Lopez, Jr., Will Free man, Curry Harris, C. B.
