FOR KEY WEST ADVOCATED BY THE CITIZEN ANOTHER BOXING DEATH Jimmy (Bud) Taylor, a promising 21-year-old Negro welterweight, recently died in a hospital of injuries suf- fered as he was knocked out in a boxing event in New Orleans. Taylor underwent surgery for a brain hem- orrhage and concussion, but doctors gave him little thance of recovery. The fighter had been unconscious from the time he was floored during a scheduled 10-round bout. It is re-| ported that the blow which resulted in the knockout was | a right to the jaw. . Although Taylor is the first fighter to be fatally in- jured in New Orleans in over 20 years, it is nevertheless true that boxing fatalities are occurring with monotonous regularity in the United States. Despite these tragedies, the boxing profession refuses to inaugurate the use of headgear, which some experts believe will cut down on boxing fatalities, The headgear, similar to that used in training matches, protects the boxer in a fall to the canvas from the danger of concussion resulting from blows received on’ the head. In our opinion, if the headgear saved only one fight- w in the next 10 years, the inconvenience and_ expense taused by the use of it would be a small price to pay. A SCHOOL FOR OUR OLDER CITIZENS On October 1, a post graduate school opened in Cold Spring, N. Y., with a requirement that only students at least 60 years old would be allowed to attend. The Cold Spring Project, as it is called, is sponsored by the Walt Foundation, which was founded by Mrs. William S. Ladd, the widow of the former dean of Cornell University Med- {eal School. This school is an experiment in helping older citizens to make better use of the years that follow retirement. The school whose student body is limited to college grad- uates. provides. gardens, a workshop, and other facilities to help students to learn new and interesting hobbies. A.series of lectures by visiting speakers is provided for the elderly student body. The topics which are in- cluded in the discussion include human growth and devel- opment, election issues, and international affairs.

The Demo- | crats had control by a slim ma- | jority before Tuesday.

Most officials of Prime Minister jNehru’s Indian government laugh off the suggestion that picturesque Kashmir, over which India . and Pakistan have been disputing for five years, might become a home base for conquest-minded Reds, But despite official unconcern, behind the scenes in New Delhi uneasiness has been growing over reports of Communist trends inside Kashmir. India, which concluded a “limited accession” pact with Kashmir last April, is still top dog in the Himalayan state bordering both India and Pakistan. But Pak- istan has not modified in the least, her demands for the territory. Reports of growing Communist influence on Kashmir are not viewed in the same light here and in Pakistan. A_ recent dispatch from Lahore, capital of Pakistan’s big West Punjab province, quoted the provincial chief minister as saying he would willingly ‘“‘become a Communist to get Kashmir for Pakistan.” “We would rather risk the Rus- | sian way of life than be reunited with India,” said Mian Mumtaz {Mohd Kahn Daultana, the West | Punjab minister and strong man. Daultana believes that Pakistan “is just not complete” without | Kashmir, says that most Pakis- tanis blame the United States for 'the failure to solve the Kashmir | deadlock in the United Nations, jand declares that Pakistan will be friendly with whatever internation- jal bloc “helps us secure a fair settlement of the Kashmir issue.” | Speculations in New Delhi about Kashmir Premier Sheikh Moham- med Abdullah’s real international Not A Second Marie Dressler Says Actress Thelma Ritter The Veterans Corner Here are authoritative answers from the Veterans Administra- tion to four questions of interest to former servicemen and their familiés: Q. Iam planning to take a correspondence course under the Korean GI Bill. How will it be charged against my entitlement? A. One-fourth of the elapsed time in taking the course will be charged against your entitlement. Elapsed time is measured from the date you enroll to the date the school processes your last lesson. Q. I realize I’m entitled to only one change of course under the Korean GI Bill. But what if I want to change schools without changing course? Is there any limit on the number of changes of this nature? . A. The law imposes no re- strictions on changing schools, so long as no_ course changes are involved. Before making your move, however, you must apply to VA for approval. -If every- thing’s in order, VA will issue a supplemental certificate authoriz- ing you to go ahead with GI training in your new school. Q. What's considered full-time and part-time training in ac- credited undergraduate college uses under the Korean GI il? A. Full-time training consists of at least 14 semester. hours or the equivalent. ee-quarters time is between 10 and 14 semes- ter-hours or the equivalent; half- time, between 7 and 10 semester- hours, and less than half-time, under 7 semester-hours or the equivalent. Q. T have a fellowship from the Atomic Energy Commission, and I find that I also am eligible for training under the Korean GI Bill. Could I take my training under both programs at the same time? A. No. You may not receive Gl allowances for training taken under the auspices of the Gov- ernment under any other law— where the GI payments would constitute a duplication of bene- fits paid to you from the Feder: Treasury. te (Veterans living in Key West and vicinity who wish further information about their benefits should contact the VA office at Room 218, Post Office Bldg., Key West, Fla.) Hearing Is Set On Grand Lareeny Charges Today Peace Justice, Ira Albury has scheduled a preliminary hearing into grand larceny charges held against Robert Ray Lamb and Van Ray Northup who were arrested in Delray Beach Wednesday morning after they allegedly took $480 from the till of a Duval Street restau- rant for Friday at 4:45 p.m. Deputy Sheriff Serge Hernandez, in the company of Police Officer By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD (#—Thelma Ritter is the most promising mature comedienne to come along in many years, but don’t call her a “second Marie Dressler.” “I don’t want to be called a sec- ond anything,” commented the salty actress, who indicated she just wanted to be a first Thelma Ritter. But although she lacks the girth of the late Miss Dressler; she is on the way toward developing as large and devoted a following. Miss Ritter, who speaks in tones that would seem at home in Eb- betts Field, admitted that she re- ceives a volume of mail that sur- prises her. “Of course, I let the studio take care of the ordinary mail,” she said. ‘You know the letters that say, ‘Please send me an auto- graphed picture of yourself and a silver frame to go with it.’ But the studio sends me some of the more intelligent letters, and I get a kick out of them, “For some reason, I get a lot of mail from people in Scotland. That amazes me. I'd think they couldn’t even figure out what I was saying.” Miss Ritter continues to main- tain a home in the East, where her husband, advertising man Joseph Moran, and two children live. She commutes here for pic- tures and remains aloof from the Hollywood hubbub. In fact, it looked a few months ago as though she would chuck the works because of the roles she was getting. “I was playing too many maids,” she. commented. “Or at least it seemed as though I was. I was a maid in ‘a Letter to Three Wives,’ but that gal was right out of left field. Then there was ‘All About Eve.’ But what most people didn’t catch was the line where I told Bette Davis that for 10 years I closed the first act, Anybody who did thgt in vaudeville was doing all right.” Her insistence on a switch in casting brought results. In “The Farmer Takes a Wife,” she played “the richest woman in the Erie Canal, a gal who was widowed five times.” In “Pickup on South Street,” she plays a panhandler, Now she’s a millionaires in ‘‘Near- er My God to Thee.” UNLUCKY KID GETS THE “BREAKS” _ HAUBSTADT, Ind.

Na- tional Conference leaders deny state and local party machinery has been infiltrated widely by the Reds, but have not backed up this denial with specific proof. & | = ee | So pe Ch A KiLLER ON THE ROOF AND PANIC ON THE STREETS — A CABBIE JAILED ON LICENSE CHARGE Floney Pellecier, cab driver, wae arrested Wed. night by Patrolmam® Henry Lounders on charges af operating a taxi without a city occupational license, Police report: ed today.
