 DIES AT HOLLYWOOD
 FROM HEART AT TACK

HOLLYWOOD, July B, P- Florenz Ziegfield, originator of the Ziegfield Follies, and international ly known as "Glorifier of the American girl', died in his 64th wear when he succumbed to a heart attack today. His death occurred at the Cedars where he had appar- ently been recovering from lung congestion which had resulted from an attack of pneumonia when ne suffered a year ago.
 Billie Burke, stage and screen ac- treSs, and his wife, arrived at the hospital just two minutes after Ziegfield died.
 ziegfield gained his first experl- ence as a snowman at the age of 13. when he ran away from home and joined Buffalo Bills wild west show but achieved his greatest rep utation as a producer of girl ana music shows.
 He won the title, "Glorifier of the American Girl" and amaSsed a for tune thru his annual Broadway re- vues, The Follies, in which he led the trend toward nudity on the stage.
 Admitting that, he was to blame for the first tendency toward this form 'of daring, he lived to regret the extremes in nudity to which some producers later went. He claimed he had presented nudity ''artistically" and deplored the daring and courseness' of exploit CTS on Broadway.
 When this announcement of his attitude came in 1926, several pro- ducerS had copied his annual Fol- lies idea, and had staged shows that proved as successful as Zleg- fields own productions.
 T am leading movement back to artistry and normalcy in the t h e a tre", he said at one time There is but one thing left for legitimate producers to do, and that is to lead not only audiences back to the shows based on merit and artistry, but to force other pro- ducers to amend their ways. , He asked the theatre-go going pub lies support by patronizing only those shows that were free from displays of naked women. Even in matrimony Ziegfield con- fined himself to the theatrical field His first wife was Anna Held, whom he starred in several productions and from whom he was subsequent ly divorced Tn 1914 he married Miss Billie Burke, the actress, who was the star in several of his pro- auctions. A daughter, Patricia, was born to the couple in 1916
 Ziegfield was born in Chicago March 21, 1868.

WOMEN AND FOOTBALL

1t looks as though the male cohorts
who have been struggling to maintain their
illusion of sex superiority would have to
throw in the sponge and take the long
count. II was bad enough to have voting
booths, barber shops, offices and smoking
rooms invaded by the conquering feminine
horde. But now comes the devastating
news that women threaten to outpoint men
in football conversation too, from no less
an authority than Christy Walsh, head of
the all-American Radio Football Show, who
probably knows more famous coaches and
football experts than any man in gridiron
circles.
Women have superior aptitude for
football strategy" says Walsh, who travels
$4,000 miles in football season to get the
viewpoint of the fan in the bleachers.
when they make the football boners that
are the basis of so many Jokes, it is usually
to flatter the ego of some male escort.
Women who go to football games
without mere males give me the best ques-
tions," continues this authority who inter-
views such great football generals as Pop
Warner. Stanford strategist; A. A. Stagg.
Chicago's patriarch; Gloomy Gil Dohie,
Cornell leader. and Major Frank Cava-
naugh, Fordham, every Friday Eight over
the air for the All-American Football Show.
Mrs. Knute Rockne was one of the great
football strategists of all time and so was
Mrs. Walter Camp before her. continues
this expert, exploding this latest refuge OF
male superiority.

NO CAUSE FOR REGRET

The publisher of The Citizen has been
asked, and is still asked, in effect, time and
again, Aren't you sorry you put up this
building (meaning the structure that houses
The Citizen and The Artman Press) in
these hard times?"
And the reply invariably has been that
he has not the least. cause for regret.
It may interest the public to know
that, when the publisher of The Citizen
made known his intention to erect the
building, he was advised by some of the
leading business men in Key West that the
time was inopportune to make an improve
ment of that type.
But he took the position that the most
opportune time to build is during de-
preston, chiefly to relieve unemployment;
that, over period of years when business
was better, money had been saved with
view of housing Key Vests only daily
paper in building that would be credit
to the community, and finally, he had
faith, and still has it, in the ultimate pro-
gress of Key West
Because of that faith in Key West, The
Citizen has no patience with those mer-
chants who are always .deploring local
conditions and are threatening to pack up
and leave the city"
In The Citizens view, it would be
distinct advantage to Key West if they left,
because nobody, particularly one in bust
ness, is an asset to city about which he
continually expresses dissatisfacti i.
1t is doubtful if other residents hear
as much of this expressed dissatisfaction as
do employees of The Citizen Let an en-
ployee of The Citizen mention advertising,
which is regarded by all "go-getting' bust
ness men as the life of trade, to the mer-
chants in question and they throw up their
hands desparingly and bemoan business
conditions, concluding always with this
absurdity:
whats the use of advertising?"
It will not be long before they will see
that question answered emphatically. Key
West is not always going to be as it is now
The time is not far off before there will be,
merchants here who, in hard times and in.
good times, will demonstrate the high value
of advertising, and when that time comes
those merchants who do not believe in it
will be obliged to pack up and leave.
town."
To repeat, the publisher of The Citizen
has no regret in having constructed its new
building; instead, he still entertains a
sense of pride over having accomplished
something in city in which he has abiding
faith.
