He and Mrs. Klausner came to Key West from Miami for a short visit with Princess Nina Carraci- olo, a long time friend of Mrs. Klausner.

It is a war between the white collar class and the coin vending machines in the office locker rooms where millions of white col- lar workers now consume the lunches they carry to work. In some offices the locker rooms resemble supermarkets, crowded with automatic dispensing gadgets that peddle everything from mys- tery novels to stockings. The locker room in my firm, however, is making no attempt to run the A & P out of business. We have only 7 of these coin-operated mechanical salesmen, which yield 2 kinds of milk, several flavors of ice cream, 7 brands of cigarettes, 4 varieties of soft drinks, and about 20 kinds of candy bars. But even these seven machines have turned our placid locker room into an exciting battleground where men and. metal: monsters grapple in mortal combat. T have practically given up going to the theater or watching tele- vision. When I want to study hu- man nature in the raw, I go to the locker room, where I am sure I ‘can find more soul-searing drama than in “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” more suspense than in “Dragnet,” more comedy than a Broadway musical offers. Who will win—man or machine? This is the crucial issue every time an employe approaches one of the machines with a coin. Nine out of 10 times there is a happy ending. The machine hesitates, grumbles, then reluctantly coughs up the desired merchandise. The 10th time—maybe the ma- chine doesn’t like the feel of the coin or the color of the necktie the employe is wearing—nothing hap- pens. Then anything can happen— from a renewal of the siege of Vicksburg to another Battle of the Bulge. Usually. the engagement ends after a flurry of wild blows and kicks, a series of high-pitched hu- man yells and low stubborn me- chanical growls, with the employe nursing bruised fists and sore toes —and the machine sneering at the Printing...

Since the profits from our ma- chines go into an office welfare fund, we have an umpire who| settles most of these disputes by returning the coin—a_ truce that really appeases neither the man nor the machine involved. But in another office locker room I know of—I collect these tidbits of machine age folklore—a really interesting dispute arose. An em- ploye claimed he pushed down the button of the vending machine for a bar of plain chocolate. But (he asserts) he got instead a chocolate almond bar, which he detests, and after chewing up the first bite he detected half a worm waving in wild protest at him from a bitten- through almond. This man demands he wants more than his nickel back. He wants to sue the machine. The ma- chine, on the other hand, claims the man is a known liar and a fraud, and insists it will fight the case clear up to the U.S. Supreme Court if necessary. The third party in the dispute, the worm, is in no condition to testify for either side. It is clear that more and moré of these difficult issues will arise in time. In a world where there is feria much ane ae Nobel eace Prize certainly ought to go to the first man who can find“ way to curb the growing hostility between the white collar class and the locker room automatic vending machines. CARD OF THANKS At times since the death of our beloved mother, Mrs. Mary Marie Jennie Johnson, the burden of our grief has seemed greater than we could bear, but always our sorrow has been in measure lightened by the wealth of sympathy and kind- ness accorded us by friends and neighbors. We were also comforted by words and deeds extended us by Rev. J. Paul Touchton, Dr. Herman K. Moore, nurses of Monroe Gen- eral Hospital, staff of Lopez Funer- al Home and Ladies of the 0.E.S. We are sincerely grateful to don- crs of beautiful floral offerings and those who gave the use of their ladies who gave of their musical talents in final respect to our be- loved one. a To each and everyone we say, “Thanks,” and a warm-hearted, “May God bless you.” THE JOHNSON FAMILY. — STRONG ARM BRAND COFFEE Triumph ¢ at ALL GROCERS SUBSCRIBE TO THE CITIZEN NOTICE Frank Cole is no longer Asso- ciated with Key West Radio & TV Service, 826 Duval St. (sd.)
