KEY WEST IN
DAYS GONE BY
Happenings Here Just 10 Years
Ago Today AS Taken From +,
The Files of The Citizen

Announcement that the Royal
Windsor, Canadian monoplane,
has called off her flight across
the North Atlantic is attracting
more than usual interest in Key
West because Duke Schiller, one
of two men who were to make
the trip, is well known here. Duke
not only lived in Key West but
played a part in a well-remember-
ed drama. 1t was Schiller who,
some five years ago, while pilot
for the Aeromarine Anyways, was
b'ackjacked and all but killed by
alleged bootleggers in Nassau. DR..
Eugene Lowe, Mayor Leslie Cur
ry, a trained nurse, mechanic and
two pilots, Richardson and Mu-
sick, left Key West on one of the
cOmpany's planes. Later it was
stated that the plane was missing.
Less than two weeks before a
machine had gone down between
Miami and Bimini, and four per-
sons, exhausted by hunger and
exposure, had been pulled from
the plane by hungry sharks. Much
anxiety was felt when news was
given out that the plane could not
be located, but it was not long
before good news was received
and it was learned that the plane
had been forced to descend be-
cause of lack of fuel and when, it
came down a boat was near and
four of the number were carried
to Nassau. Pilots Musick and his
mechanic stayed with the plane.
The party in the boat reached
Nassau and DR.. Lowe found
Schiller in a state of coma. He
was able to be up, but his mind
was practically a blank from the
effects of the beating he had re-
ceived. lie was taken to Miami
and it was more than a month
when he recovered from the eff
fects of the injuries.
Rogelio Zayas Bazan, secre-
tary of the interior of Cuba, is
of the opinion that the boule-
ward should be extended to White
street. He made this statement
while going over the boulevard
yesterday. He said this extern
sion will increase it's usefulness,
hence its value.
Cy Gray, veteran finger of the
Regulars, did a regular Iron
Man McGinty" job yesterday
when he pitched both ends of a
doubleheader and won them both.
The games were played at the
barracks and in both he allowed
but two runs and IL hits. In. the
opener with the Service team, he
allowed one run in the first in
ming ad the rest of the game was
a shutout. In the nightcap, the
Monroes started off with one run,
but never got another. 1t was
real baseball, and the fans were
thrilled.

ELOISE TOO NOISY
Eloise, no longer leads the
taxicab fleet that went to the
defense of Paris. This is one
feature of Seventh Heaven"
that sound and technical i'm
provements made obsolete. For
Eloise was a 1914 taxicab of
wheezes and jerks and internal
noises. A fleet of these ancient
exhibits of automobile junk
made so much hulabaloo when
tried out on the set that it
sounded like new battle of the
Marne. Director Henry King de-
cided that the safety campaign
should be extended to audience
ear drums. So we miss Eloise.
Seventh Heaven" comes to the
Capitol theater Friday. 1 can't
predict it will do as much for
the SteWart-Simon team as it
did for FarrellGaynor, but can
say that those who prefer a
tender love story will find one
of the finest in this picture.

The play deviates from the
beaten path of the theater because
it relates so fully and constantly
the remarkable conflict between
two cousins, Della and Charlotte.
The former is more Of the domi-

lotte seems almost as fragile as q

who has had the affair with the
one man whom Della loved and
who has become the father OF
Charlotte's love-child.
1t is the child who furnishes
the basis for the unique and dis.
