Note, too, that the restaurant on Greene Street noted for its lovely setting of a patio is being en- larged and the owners can be seen every day working at the ground, setting out banana trees, shrubs and other means of beautification. Letter from Guy Carleton, writ- ten with pen in cheek, and a cheeky hand, states ‘‘At the urgent request of the publicity dept. of the Key West Players, (that’s yours, drooly), I. submitted myself for a photograph to be used in connec- tion with my theatrical biography. The result appeared in last night’s issue. The photo might be some- thing from a passport, a rogue’s gallery or a home for old men and most certainly will not be instru- mental in attracting anyone to see our. performance of “John Loves | Mary.” Now before this goes any further, and it will, let me put in my two | bits worth. Guy is a distinguished looking ‘gentleman who does not have to pose with a raised glass | in hand to be a man of distinction. An ordinary news shot can’t possi- bly do him justice no matter if we put shaded lights all around and gave him a studio photo treatment, which isn’t possiblé in a rushed news office. Besides, if we made him stand out in all his male pul- chritude, John McDonough, who won the Mr. Key West title, would come a-gunnin’ in a pique of jealousy. 5s BRACE YOURSELVES, here ;comes a shocker, for there is a man who does not hesitate to go into age tally. Guy’s letter con- tinues, “My biography was ap- proximately correct, except that I DID NOT write that I was in my seventies. I DID note that I was ‘going on eighty,’ and it would have been equally true of ANY age under that figure. Please be more careful with statistics and refrain from stating of any one 67 as being in his seventies. Re- member, I am typed for generals, majors, judges, county attorneys and other persons of prominence, ability and dignity and am not cast in parts portraying a septua- genarian, or inmate of the home for old men. I ask the public to witness our performance at the Barn. The other members of the east are not ‘in their seventies’ but do give a convincing expert, professional-like show and it is un- fair to judge the cast by the photo and biography of which this is the subject.” NEW STYLE in showers - to throw at a bridal couple was set Monday at the Cifelli-Husse (Pier- re Duval) wedding when guests were given handfuls of rice, wheat, colored bits of confetti and small candy eggs, all good luck sym- bols.
