Let us remember that Billy Roberts was a student of this so called ‘pink educator.’ It would | be wise also to take into consider- ation the fact, that Billy Roberts has talent.

Duke, USN. The Public Works Officer gave a talk illustrated with charts and statistics to back up the Navy's contention that the civilian and the military should cooperate on distri- bution of electric power. In es- sence Luppens asked that the City take its high periods of maximum distribution and average them out with the Navy’s low periods, and vica versa. . Luppens said that the Navy's maximum load comes in the summer, while the city’s peak climbs in the winer months. “We are not just an ordinary commercial customer,” the public works officer said., ‘“‘We gener- ate our own power as well.” The Navy has a 3500 KW net the Fleet Sonar School building is going to tax that capacity, caus- ing a need for 1,000 more KW, he said. “We can get through the sum- mer,” Luppens said, “just as you can get through the winter, tegration of our loads.” Luppens said that in a given 24 hour period the City’s peak load lis from 7 to 8 p. m. The Navy's peak load is at 11 a. m. in the pre-lunch hour. While the City uses most elec- tricity during the winter months to heat apartments, homes, etc., the Navy uses most electricity during the summer to cool its buildings with air conditioning, Chairman C. B. Harvey said. Board Member Louis M. J. Eisner moved that the meetings between the Navy and City Elec- tric’s consulting engineers and Board members be resumed as early as feasible. All four Board members pre- sent agreed to this procedure, qualifying it with the statement that rate reductions study for domestic and commercial rate re- ductions in Key West be forthcom- ing from the engineers first.

England, Miss du Maurier’s na- | tive land, also has come up with outstanding film versions of her stories — “Hungry Hill” and “The King’s General,”’ the latter to be released later this year. To illustrate the authoress’ dy- namic appeal, it took the work of a novelist of her caliber to lure Olivia de Havilland back to Holly- wood after a four year absence to play the title role in “My Cousin Rachel.” “My Cousin Rachel” has proved to be’ Miss du Maurier’s most popular novel, still maintaining a high position on the international best-seller lists.
