‘Key West High “Students Visit Citizen Office Six Members Of KWHS Journalism Class Learn Duties Of A Daily Newspaper By NANCY BROOKS and ALICE GARCIA, KWHS When we were chosen to come to The Citizen Office for a day, we had no idea of the work, but at the same time fun that was in store for us. At the county court house we met Sheriff Sawyer, Chiei Dep- uty Tommy Dixon, and Deputy Emma Cates and Serge Hernan- dez. We were rather disappointed that we could not find any mur- der or robbery cases, but we @i4 Yearr the work that goes on in the Sheriff's office. They in- formed us that Sheriff Berlin Sawyer is the highest law offi- cer in the county and is paid ac- cording to the duties which he performs. He told us there is an average of 34 prisoners per day, and that in September, 2,565 meals were served in jail. Our next stop was at the of- fice of Supervisor of Regictra- tion Sam Pinder and Deputy Ed- na Mae Bullman. Mr. Pinder said tiat there are now 450 Re- publicans registered in Monroe Count, The total number of voters registered here is 12,685. / After that we went to Super- intendent of Public’ Instruction Horace O’Bryant’s office where asked him about a driving course for Key West High School. Mr. O’Bryant said that there ‘were no plans ye* but they hoped toveventually add this to the curriculum. While enjoying a coke with Sultan Rejects French Proposal RABAT, Morocco (#—The Sultan of Morocco’s speedy rejection of French independence proposals in- dicated today the ruler may hope to see Moroccan demands for more self-rule put before the United Na- tions General Assembly opening in New York next Tuesday. The Sultan handed French col- onial authorities a note yesterday rejecting as insufficient the pro- posals they made last month to meet the Moroccan demands. The Arab-Asian bloc in the United Nations already is pressing to get the question of independence for Morocco and Tunisia, another French North African colony, be- fore the General Assembly. France is fighting such a move, claiming it is an internal question. Stingray Dies By VITA BARROSO Tragedy struck at the Key West Aquarium yesterday. Man- ager Bill Kroll told us that all of his stingrays, which were held in captivity there, died. Kroll said that the reason for these deaths was that the species lives only about 6 to 9 months in the tanks. He added that this ‘was probably because of impro- jPer diet. The stingrays had just jabout used up their time, Kroll said. An interesting tour of: the aquarium showed many strange lfish that we were not even laware existed. All of the fish ‘are caught in the waters around Key West. ness men who unite to make Key West a better place in which to live and in which to I make’ living,” Mr. Laubschet pointed out.

It is nothing for them to shake and crack the children’s knuckles. All the teachers concerned should read this and consider. They could be jailed for cruelty. I hope the public will read this and any parent that has had similar complaints, answer this letter. MOTHER “PRAISES EISENHOWER” Editor, The Citizen: How about a picture of your able writer Raymer of Conch Chowder brandishing her Grandfater’s Cu- ban sword, with it’s “penetrating point” - a warning for prowlers! In another writing she refers to her big bobby-pins, “the better to stab wolves with, my dear!” Brother - does her honorable ancéstor date back to Key West Pirate days? Is she as beautiful as courageous? Perhaps there are other readers of your Key West Citizen as I, who would welcome seéing pictures of your staff and reading a little of their biographies in some forth- coming issue! Mr. Editor, I cannot_agree with you on your many recent editorials for Stevenson and Truman - tho’ you of course are priviledged to believe as you will. I ean readily understand that Truman’s visits to Key West have provided free adver- tising and that some restaurant owner proudly displays one of his dirty coffee cups, yet I sincerely believe that General Eisenhower's sweeping November election will disclose even much more hidden dirt in Truman’s administration than the dregs in his coffee cup for which $1.00 was allegedly paid. Key Westers may be forced to scratch around for a means of solving their sewerage disposal problem - and they well could. President Truman’s final unbend- ing in dignity of his high office to make his so-called “‘whistle-stop speeches” are his and the Demo- cratic Party’s great undoing. Am- ericans rejoiced to become really well-acquainted with our next vice- president Nixon, who had nothing |" to hide about his campaign financ- es and declared same quite drama- tically and truthfully via radio or television into most all the homes of our great nation; for, he might in the future become our president as did Truman by accidental death. I doubt if Eisenhower could be wooed into use of the “little white house’ to get away from it all, as was poor bewildered Tru- man. Eisenhower will be much too busy taking care of all America’s problems at home and abroad where especially we need a capa- ble diplomat. He will lend dignity and prestige to our highest national post - we sorely need an abrupt | eo.

BOSTON BUTT Deserti Is Arrested NOME, Alaska ®—An Air Force man who is charged with deserting his unit in Dayton, Ohio, was picked up yesterday floating about egeene Sea on a five-man life raft. It has not been explained how he got there. The man, whose name. has been withheld by officials, was spotted three miles from the mouth of the Yukon River by O. W. Tasch, a civilian pilot flying an amphib- ious plane. Tasch asked him where he was going and he said Nome. He was 150 miles from his target, straight north across dangerou¢ waters. Tasch took him aboard his plane and turned him over to military authorities. Three Airmen Were Killed INVERNESS, Scotland (#—The Royal Air Force today officially listed three of its airmen killed and 11 others believed dead in the crash of a four-engine Shackle- ton plane in the sea off Northern Scotland. The Coastal Command plane was engaged in air-sea firing practice when it crashed into the water yesterday near Tarbat Ness. Three bodies were found amid floating wreckage, halt to this mad inflation.
