Many “Hits” There were many ‘hits’ of the Key West performance. In fact, each .boy and girl made a ‘direct hit” in the hearts and eyes of the gay carnival crowd. Perhaps the youngest of the “thits’” was :nine- year old ‘Johnnie’ Thompson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ira Thompson who mot only marched but twirled his baton the entire length of the pa-| wade for several miles along :the| Malecon and several miles along the Prado. It might also be added that after the parade was over, little Johnnie was eager to “‘strut”’ a few more blocks. Other \performances which seem- ed to thrill the throngs which lined the streets was ithe Spanish num- ber danced ‘by Miss Gale ‘Varela and Dennis Jolly with the Flag} Girls led by Glorida Knowles and the Majorettes with Myrna Goeh- wing leading. Many compliments were also showered on Teresa Bardwell and Louis Cruz, the two- high-stepping Drum Majors. Ovation Given In spite of the many miles of Marching and the torrential down- pour of the sub-tropics during the parade, the Key West High School Band weceived a fine ovation. As the Key West folks stood to atten- tion in trivute to their own, the Cuban folks rose also. As the Key West students curtsied in true Southern style in-front of the grand. stand, shouts were heard, “Vive Cayo Hueso.” Mr. Julio Cabanas, President of the San Carlos; Mr. Juan Lopez, and other members of the San Car- | Jos, and Mr. Raoul Alpizar of the Havana Tourist Commission with | offices here in Key West, felt it an honor to have Key West stu- dents esteemed by Havana offi-| cials. The Cuban government not | only quartered and fed the stu- dents but sent one of their gun- boats, the “Antonio Maceo” to Key West to provide transportation for the contingent. While the band leaders and carnival goers were enthusiastic about the Conchs’ panticipation in the parade itself, the high school principal, Harold C. Campbell, and the mayor of Key West glowed over the cordial re- ception given these Key West folks. Band members were received with open arms by Mrs. Carmen Aguiar, Director General of all Schools of Havana, Cuba. The girls were quartered at the Aguero School for Girls, » while the male students stayed at the Valdez Rodriguez School in Ve- dade. Mrs. Aguiar paid Key West a fine tribute, as well as “Doe” Casterton and Mr. Connell, when she remarked that never had she seen a group as well behaved as the Key West group. Among others who were equal- ly pleased were the chaperones: Mr. and Mrs. Glen ‘West, Mrs. Polly Bardwell, Mrs. Joe Cornell, Mr, “Bill” Steed, Mr. and Mrs. Ira Thompson, Paul Braun (a “ring- er’), Mrs. Ralph Johnson, Keller ‘Watson and Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Boza.

Can Fight On Own Terms By TOM BRADSHAW PHILADELPHIA ®—Vice Pres- ident Nixon told a Philadelphia Bulletin Forum audience last night the United States has adjusted its thinking to the point “where we will now fight on our own terms.” Nixon, in the forum’s keynote address, said U.S. armed strength and military planning is being rearranged “to carry out that Policy,” a plan which he said has already born visible fruit. “In not one area of the world,” he said, “have the Reds gained ‘this year—and in many areas we have made gains. For the first time in a generation we are ex- periencing peace and prosperity at the same time.” He said much of the credit for this successful shift can be traced to President Eisenhower as well as the National Security Council, Secretary of State John Foster Dulles and the ‘defense team” composed of Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson, Army Secre- tary Robert T. Stevens and Navy Secretary Robert B. Anderson. | He said the United States must | aid the Associated States in Indo- china because a Red victory there would mean the eventual loss of all Asia to communism. He said the present situation in the Far East can be summed up thus: “If Southeast Asia falls, if it comes under the Communist dom- ination or Communist orientation, what happens to Japan?

Anthony Litschauer, his wife, their 17-year-old daughter, Pa- tricia, and the latter’s schoolmate, Nellie Manda, also 17, were held by the fugitives in the Litschauer home before they stole the car and | fled, using the girls as hostages. Police said the two men tied Mrs. Litschauer and Pat in the Litschauer house and demanded the keys to the family car. They were unable to find the keys and when the Manda girl arrived to find out why Pat had not picked her up for school, they forced her to remain with them. One of the fugitives forced Pat| to accompany him to a drug store where he telephoned Litschauer to come home. When he arrived, they forced him into the house, took his car and the two girls, and left. The girls were released a few minutes later. Neither the girls nor the Litschauer parents were harmed. Police said the men had aban- doned their car, bearing New York license plates, early Tuesday when authorities sought to question them. When police stopped them they gave the names of Robert Garni, 39, and William H. Cordts, 45, both of New York. The Litschauers said the men Bi to reach Miami. They said the car did not belong to them.
