TEXANS, TEXANS?
THAT'S QUESTION
ny A..aelatea Prer.l

AUSTIN, Tex, Dec. 1.-THE
letter app has split residents of
the Lone Star state into two
camps over whether they should
be known as Texans or Texans.
The argument was revived re-
Gently after Mayor LaGuardia of
New York sent Governor James
V. Alfred an old playbill deserib-
ing a program given Jan. z, 1886,
in the American theater on the
Bowery for the benefit of the
Texans"
Cove Alfred publicly suggested
residents be referred to as TEX
ians." An Ell Paso attorney,
Richard F. Burgess, took the OPP
posite view on the ground "Tex-
ans" sounded more distinctive.
Both sides found ready converts,
and debate has reached Homeric
proportions.

which is herewith produced. The
illustration accompanying the
verses is a cred:tab.e drawing of
a vessel flying flag with the in

craft Half- Under.
The illustration is compatible
with the lines of the verses in that

first discharge of the cannon
mounted IN the bow, ready for at
tack OF defense.
The following is the poem:
MY BOAT
Pve built a boat lit sure is cute) /;
1t closely resembles wooden flute,
So full Of holes, it seems to me,
It'll sink as soon as it sees the sea.
j
But, just taz saEae, III take it out,
And sail away southeast by south,
Til I come to the land where (the
people say)
The natives sing and dance all day.
So, you people think that my boat
won't go;
Well, just for that, won't let you
know
Where the is'e is where I'll sit in
sweet repose,
And to all you doubters, I'll raise
my nose.

AFFIRMATIVE
SIDE WINS in
SCHOOL DEBATE
CONTEST PUT ON LAST EVE
MING AT HIGH SCHOOL WAS
GREATLY ENJOYED By ALL
PRESENT

Interesting beyond expectation
and gave convincing evidence of
the keen perceptive powers pos
sessed by students of the Key
West High School, and their abil-
ity to analyze questions of nation
al interest in a Gear and positive
manner. The debaters deserve
great credit"
The foregoing was a decision
made by a resident of Key West
who has attended many debates
and was surprised at the versatil-
ity and EXCEPTIONAL ability display
ed by those taking part in the de-
bate at the school last night on
the question: Resolved that the
electric utilities should be govern
ment owned and operated"
From the beginning of the de-
bate the young people taking the
affirmative and negative sides of
the issue showed their earnestness
and interestedness in their sides Of
the question, and held the inter
est of the audience with the force
of the arguments and the admir-
able command of language and
argumentative powers displayed.
On the affirmative side were
Sidney Aronovitz, Anita Berko-
witz and Winnifred Shine. Oppos-
ing or negative side was upheld
by Vance Stir-up, Andrew e.
wood and Norma Garcia. Hilary
;A,bury was chairman Of the de-
batting circle Mary Louise Bon
niwell acted as timekeeper.
Those selected to judge the ar
guments offered by the debaters
were: E. A. Skunk, of the South
Florida Contracting and Engi-
neering company; C. E. Smith,
agent for the Clyde-Mallory Lines;
Allan z. Cleare, Jr., county solicit
tor; Ida Weintraubs and Ida En-
gel, teachers of the Key West
High School.
Thus the judges were two rep
resentatives of corporations, two
representatives of the educational
institutions of Key West, and one
attorney, and after the votes on
the debate were announced the
declaration of opinion was that the
affirmative side was victorious by
a vote of four to one.

Root Rot Control
Developed In Texas
On, As.sciatea Pr.a.p

TEMPLE, Tex, Dec. 11.-Dr.
C. H. Rogers, plant pathOlogist at
the Blacklands experiment station
here, has developed a new method
of root rot control for small
plots of shallow-rooted ornamen-
tai plants.
He digs the soil from around
the plant to depth of three feet
and four feet in area and replaces
it with soil known to be free of
root rot. He mixes this with one
part copper sulphate to so parts
earth.
DIR. Rogers says chemicals will
not penetrate deeply enough to
kill all root rot infection when
applied at the surface or even at
pillow depth. Thorough mixture of
the chemical with the soil kills the
disease.

swERS MANY QUESTIONS
PERTAINING TO SAME

Many persons have asked what
constitutes the work of those
young men and women who are
employed by the National Youth
Administration and today The
Citizen asked the same question
at headquarters, and received an
informative reply.
Besides numerous tasks In con-
.neet:on with work in the different
city and county offices group of
young girls are engaged in making
up garments for the poor and
needy and have accomplished much
in the way of providing for them.
For example, during the past

girls dresses, 10 pairs of baby
rempers, seven baby shirts, seven
sun suits for children, seven pima
flores, four pairs of boys pants
and one pair of overalls, in all a
total of 185 articles of wearing
apparel.
This list does not take into ae.
count other issues before the cur
rent period, nor does it comprise
a number of articles which are
now underway but cannot be COM
pleted until the material is re-
ceived with which to finish them.
There are also q number of art
icles of handicraft which viii be
given out at Christmas time.
All of these articles have been
made by the girls on the NYA
rolls, many of them are students
at school and come within the
scope of that branch of the NYA
designated as student aid, and who
receive Sc monthly for their ef-
forts.
