Page 12 ‘THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Saturday, November 22, 1952 Audubon Screen Tours Will Be Conducted In Key West For Fifth Consecutive Year - Wallace B. Kirke, Screen Tour Chairman of the Monroe County Audubon Society, today announced the schedule of the Audubon Screen Tours for the fifth consecutive year | in Key West. | Through the medium of color motion pictures of a wide variety | of nature subjects, interpreted by | internationally famous naturalists, nature photographers and lecturers Key West audiences will have the same outstanding eatertainment and information as those shown in such cities as Washington, D. C., Miami, Fla., St. Louis, Mo., and 160 other cities throughout the United States and Canada. The subjects in the films are unposed and the pictures are of professiona) quality. Through the courtesy and cooper- ation of the Monroe County Board of Publie Instruction, the Superin- tendent of Public Instruction Ho- race O’Bryant, Principals and fa- culties of the school, the Audubon Screen Tours are presented for school children in 2:00 p. m matinees at Truman Elementary School, and for the adult aucience in the evening at 8 o’clock at the Key West High School. This season’s schedule is even more interesting than last, Mr. Kirke said. The series begins on Friday, January 2. Dr. George Miksch Sutton, author, Fellow of the American Ornithological Union, the Polar Society is also reviewer of birds books for the New York | Herald Tribune. Dr. Sutton brings his unusual color film, “Bird Ma- | gic in Mexico,” a story. of the Cornell University-Carleton College | expedition to Southwestern Tam- | aulipas, Mexico. This is Dr. Sut- | ton’s first trip to Key West as a | member of the Audubon Screeen | Tours. j On Monday, January 26, an old friend of Key Wet Screen’ Tour | audiences, Howard L, Orians of | Milwaukee, Wisconsin, will be there to interpret his color motion | picture, “Wildlife at Your Door- | step,” and will pass on to the | audience his own helpful hint: for | attracting ‘\irds and animals. Entering whistling, will be a Screen Tour favorite, Bert Har- well, whose delightful bird-song whistling is a treat, On Friday, February 20, his third trip to Key West, Mr. Harwell, a former national Parks ranger will show in color motion picture his ‘‘Cana- da East.” Those who attended the Screen Tours will remembe the ‘ delightful ‘Canada West” and “Canada North” and will not want to miss “Canada East.” A newcomer to Key West is Dr. Harold M. Hill of Redlands, Cali- fornia, a practicing physician, whose unusual film, “Wings and Talons” is to be presented on Mon- day, March 9. This picture shows the secrets of the hawks, eagles, owls and falcons who live by their wings and talons. Closing the series on Tuesday, April 7, with “The Four Corners,” is Fran William Hall of Northfield, Minnesota, a master of nature photography. A result of spending many summers exploring and pho- tographi~g in the West, Mr. Hall’s “The Four Corners” is a story Mr. Chipmun Sure-Fire Fishermen e * Photo Couresy wwalional Audubon Sociery HOW IS IT DONE?

Mr. Kirke emphasized that the Monroe County Audubon Society is interested only in paying the expenses incurred by the Society in bringing these outstanding events to Key West for the enjoyment | and appreciation of the communi- | ty. In order to supplement the ef- | forts of members of the Society in | seeing people personally, and avoid embarrassment in several persons soliciting the same people, Mr. Kirke said that this year_| membership cards in the Audubon Sereen Tour Club, entitling per- sons to attend all five numbers of the series at a nominal rate are being mailed, with provisions made for the purchase of admission cards and transmittal of the pay- ment price by self-addressed enve- lope to the Treasurer, Mr. Archie Roberts. It is felt that this plan would help to avoid confusion caused by other forms of solicitation and as- sure that more people are given k Hunts For Food Be a ae ae 2444444444 24244444 Let's face it, cousins; Key West is a musically barren tity.

WASHINGTON #—The nation’s two big labor organizations were pilotless today in a sudden twist of fate unforeseeable two weeks ago, William Green, 81-year-old presi- dent of the American Federation of Labor, died yesterday just 12 days after the death of CIO Presi- dent Philip Murray. Heart trouble was the cause in both cases, It was Murray who took a lead- ing part in the breakaway from Green’s AFL in 1935. Murray played a major role in developing the industrial unionism of the late 1930s and making the Congress of Industrial Organizations a new and independent force in the union movement. Both Green and Murray were coal miners and their success was intertwined with that of a third mine worker, John L. Lewis. Lewis is president of the United Mine Workers. He is 72 and ap- pears as active today as he ever has been. The sudden vacuum at the top of the AFL and CIO will almost certainly be filled quickly. Some union leaders speculated quietly today that, no’ matter which two men are chosen to he:d the AFL and CIO, organized labor’s new leadership faces a new era. Murray and Green were in the prime of their years when the Democrats took over the national administration 20 years ago. Work- ing in general harmony with the administration, they saw the labor movement take some of its greate strides as they grew old in their jobs. Coinciding with their deaths was the election of the first Repub- lican administration since 1932. One top union official, declining use of his name,said it was too early tu make any predictions about the future course of the divided labor movement under new leaders. But he said the death of Murray and Green might have real implications # repeated at- tempts to explore 488 feasibility of CIO-AFL unity. Such attempts have proved entirely fruitless since the split 17 years agel@ - The AFL claimM a membership lion. If the prospect of unity is to be enhanced, it will depend a ‘good deal on whom these two big labor groups choose asqtheir next presi- dents. 4 Green had been ailing for months and much of his work passed into the hands of George Meany, 58- year-old secretary-treasurer since 1940. Meany in effect has been running the AFL, with frequent contact with Green, for a year or more. It is this fact which makes Meany the most frequently men- | tioned prospect for AFL president. The AFL Executive Council is expected to meet soon after Green’s funeral next Monday. The council will likely designate a pres- ident to serve until the AFL annual convention next year, George Harrison, 57-year-old president of the AFL's Brother- ‘hood of Railway Clerks, is also | mentioned as a possible successcr |to Green, However, there was al- ways a possibility some other AFL |leader might be selected. | Allan S.
