The same statement indicated that President Harry S. Truman had cancelled his plans for a ‘|Key West vacation this month. In a telephone conversation Thurs. morning between Harold R. Laubscher, manager of the Key West Chamber of Commerce and Redford Mobley, Washington newsman who released the story, it was learried that the basis for the statement came from two conversations engaged in Wednesday. Friends of the President-elect, who have been close to General Eisenhower during the presiden- tial campaign, told Mr. Mobley it was very possible General Eisen- howeér may choose to spend vaca- tions in Key West, and gave as reasons the facts that the Gen- neral likes to fish and he likes salt water. Mr. Mobley also stated that in a conversation with President Truman’s press secretary it was learned that the President had at léast temporarily cancelled his vacation plans for the time being. It was reported that he is so busy with the amount of work on his desk that it may be impossible for him to get away, as he had planned. Chamber manager Laubscher pointed out that apparently nei- ther of these statements have been confirmed by the principals and that both stories are wide open for speculation. SMALL FIRE QUELLED A mattress fire, which was start- ed by smoking in bed, resulted in slight damage early this morning in the home of M. Lomax at 627 Eaton Street, Acting Fire Chief Charles Torres reported. Firemen from the No. 1 station required but 10 minutes to ex- tinguish the blaze. SPOTTSWOOD GETS (Continued from Page One) May primaries, as were all the other unopposed candidates. An interesting sidelight on the absentee vote was that three voters wrote in the nanie of J. Y. Porter for state representative, oné wrote ‘inthe name of Minnie Porter Har- ris. for the same post, and City Commissioner Louis M. J. Eisner had three write-ins requesting him to be: named Sheriff of Monroe ‘county. Fred Dion received one write-in machine vote for Tax As- sessor. The hard-working Supervisor re- ceived a letter today Buck Grundy, realtor in Islamora- da which said: “Congratulations to you personal- ly and to your staff for not only your reelection but also for a ‘beautiful job mighty well done dur- ing the past rather hectic six months of political wrangling.

Tom Whitley, director of the music de- partment at the high school, was in charge of the delightful program, H.S. Operetta Given Thurs. For Rotarians Spirit of fun and entertainment prevailed at Rotary Club luncheon held yesterday at St. Paul’s parish hall with the first part of the get- together given over to ribbing by | voters on opposite sides of the political fence. Former program director for Rotary, Bob Dopp who was a split rail (not honest Abe Lincholn style) winner sent pre- sent program director, Paul Sher, a telegram which read: “The people have spoken. Get ready for the crow.” Much crowing was done by Dopp, but the pie was lemon meringue. Sher was given a crying towel. Jerry Trevor announced the open hduse for the renovated Florida National Bank and invited all Rotarians to attend it on Satur- day between 4 and 6 p. m. The day’s main program was the presentation of excerpts from the Key West High School music and choral department’s recent oper- etta, “In Gay Havana,” directed by Tom Whitley. 65 high school music students, courtesy of Horace O’Bryant delighted the club mem- bers with choral arrangements, so- los, duets and a rumba combo. Star of the operetta, Miss Jo Ann Mullins soloed and sang also in combination with the chorus as well as a duet with Glenn Archer and two numbers with Robert Las- tres. The rumba band demonstrat- ed expert rhythm with Betty Shep- herd at the piano, Aldo Vidal on the gourd, John Carbonell thump- ing the big tombu drum, Robert Lastres striking the claves (sticks) | Mario Roque shaking maracas. Selections ‘included the opening ensemble number ‘Welcome To Gay Havana,” “Song of the Mango | Vendor’, “Buenos Noches, Senor”, “Hasta Mahana”, “Sweetheart”, “The Merry-Go-Round”, ‘Wine | Words and Elocution” and the stirring finale, “The People of Cu- | ba.” Whitley narrated the story brief- ly.

SHRIMPERS AND (Continued from Page One) can dock owners who taxes compete with the a . The deal was made at Monday night’s meeting of the City Commis- ssion after it was brought out that the city was in grave danger of losing a good share of its multi- million dollar shrimp i due to dissatisfaction amon g the shrimpers conce Tning the operating conditions here. The lack of suitable dock space, high cost of ice and fuel and poor maintenance facilities are said to be the chief reasons for the movement to other cities by the fishermen. Already, the city’s second largest shrimp operator, Eugene Toomer has taken his to Fort Myers claiming that he could not operate profitably here. However, ‘another fish house op- erator, who declined to be named, said that he “didn’t care one way or the other, what the city does with their dock.” “If this fellow doesn’t play ball and keep his price up, he just won’t get along,” he continued. “Shrimp- ers stick together.” ANYTHING CONCERNING AUTOMOBILES SEE THE TWINS 130 Duvac Sr. PH. 1870-1871 Smart you are... in ARROW PAR America’s 4 the smart, widespreed soft collar that points you ovt as @ mon of good taste.
