Jones, commanding officer of the Cero. Lt. Porto received his plaque from Lcdr, Harry Brown, skipper of the Barb. ‘he plaques were of polished wood with gold dolphins mounted at thé top, and the name of the ship,.the officer and dates of his duty here underneath. Also at the bottom of each plaque were the words “Qualified OOD and Diving Officer” and below that in Portu- guese, the language spoken in Brazil, were the words for “Good Shipmate.”” Lt. Lindenberg and Lt. Porto re- ported for duty with Subron Four on July 7, and they will be de- Yached Friday. Among the guests who attended the party, about 75 in all, were Captain F. G.

Winner Proves Wishes Come True By JAXON “If wishes were horses, beg- gars would ride,” and yesterday wishes were sewing machines, and there are some pretty happy people over at the Convent of Mary Im- maculate. For quite some time now, the Sisters at the Convent have been wishing for a new sewing machine for the domestic science classes, and also for their ‘own use in sew- ing and mending, but didn’t know how they would be able to raise the money for such an expensive item right away. That’s where di- vine providence stepped in in the! form of a “Count The Dots Contest” sponsored by the Home Appliance Company. Sister Mary John saw the contest advertised the very first night in the Key West Citizen and decided that a poor try was better than no try at all and pro- ceeded to count the dots, She was very careful about it too, and didn’t finish ’til late at night. She wanted to count them over to make sure, but Sister Mary Isabella prevailed upon her to let good enough alone, | mail in her entry and retire. This proved to be a very good thing. Yesterday when the contest en- tries were opened at the Home Appliance Store by Judge Aquilino Lopez and J. Y. Porter, it was found that not one but thirteen people had counted the dots cor- rectly. So the judges went over all the winning entries and found that the earliest postmarked en- tries belonged to Sister Mary John, Mrs. G. W. Hartfield, and Mr. Leroy W. Johnson. These were postmarked on October 29th at 7 A. M, Then they attempted to judge the entries on neatness, but one was as neat as the other. So -* eac! shuffled up by J, Y. Porter, and Aquilino Lopez chose one; the one belonging to Sister Mary John! I talked to Sister this morning on the phone, and she is so happy to have been the instrument ip obtaining the new machine. How- ever she did feel badly that there were actually three winners and only one Domestic Sewing Machine. I assured her that the other win- ners would be well taken care of. | The Home Appliance Co. is giving the other two winners a beautiful 5 piece Rainbow Set of waterless cookwear by Westbend. Also, be- sides the Sewing machine, the Do- | mestic Sewing Machine Company is giving to each of the other win- ners a gift certificate worth from $25 to $50 towards the purchase price of a new Domestic machine, ding on the model chosen. @ machine and cookwear may be seen at the Home Appliance Company all the rest of this week. | FLEET TRAINING WIVES ?LAN MONTHLY MEET CONCH CROWDER By RAYMER aes John Weeler, who was head of the North American Newspaper Alliance, a feature syndicate, once wrote to me in 1948 and of- fered me a job on assignment, or on what I might pick up around the Miami area, but said that in so far as columns were concerned he “believed that newspapers had | reached the saturation point.” In | that case it looks as if our paper is gonna float around on water- j Wings, inflation of columns having | set in. We have four people in the | editorial staff, and now three of us are doing columns! In the ad- vertising department, there is also Jaxon who writes tha. tri-weekly “Shop Hopper” popper, The only staffster who hasn’t an individua- list’s column is Margaret Fores- man, and even she has written a | sort of article-column under the | by-line of Margo. What with Susan McAvoy start- | ing “‘Key West Is My. Beat,”’ and Jim Cobb planning to come out | with “Ear To The Ground” by | Cobb, it looks as if this paper has | more columns than a Greek tem- ple. Don’t forget that out-sider Bill Gibb writes “This Rock of Ours,” and I have two, ane a movie review insert called ‘‘Maid’s Night Out.” And of course, sincé you are reading this, you know about “Conch Chowdey” which I initiated in April, 1951. It’s been going steadily for a year and a half and a fraction, The movie review is a year and two months old.. There’s Jack Burke's sports column. . .and now and then when | the mood is on, one from Charles | Duerkes from up in the hinterland. Sometimes Cmdr. Ray Byrns come up with words by ‘An Adopted Conch.” These are supplimented | by regular syndicated columns I used to do a book review column called “Reviewing Stand,” | | but abandoned it when Ginger start | |ed sending in ‘‘Key Books.” When | }Cobb said he was going to do a} column some months ago, Susan | | caught the spirit, too. Cobb was / going to call his “Corn Off The | Cobb” but was reminded that some | midwestern writer used that title. | Various suggestions were made in- | | cluding all sorts of references to buttered up corn, corn frittering, parched and popped corn, andj lfinally the one Jim decided on. {I made the cracks on cracked | corn because he threatened to call | his column “Corn Chowder,” and | | 1 claim that dripped with plagiar- | ism. Maybe we should start a cam- paign and get everyone in all de |partments of; the paper to write | | columns. Percy Curry, foreman, | MISS YATES IS CHOSEN AS QUEEN CANDIDATE Miss Ann Yates, of Key West has been chosen by the Zeta Tau Alpha Sorority of Florida State Un. iversity in Tallahassee to represent their organization as one of the candidates for the role of Home- coming Queen, to reign over the annual FSU Homecoming events on the university campus Nov. 14-15.
