THINK 1T OVER"

4G14ANA Nv XII
A letter to the citizens of Key
West:
Have ybu ever given thought
to the matter of patronizing the
local established Institutions and
why it is to your interest to con-
fine your patronage to such in
situations.
Is there any good reason for
buying any of your daily needs
from other organizations which
know nothing of your problems
or which cannot and will not be
of any assistance to you in the
solution of them?
Your local established business
places are familiar with your re-
quirements, spend good money to
send their statesmen and delivery
men to call on you daily; sup
ports by contributions, taxes, etc,
our local government, civil and
charitable organizations; renders
many and varied kinds of serv-
ices whenever called upon; fl
nance by means of satisfactory
terms when your patronage re-
quires this assistance and war
rants your patronage in many
other ways which are familiar to
you.
Isn't it within reason in view
of the fact that the established
houses should feel justified in ex-
pecting that you make all, pur-
chases of your daily needs when4
ever possible from them, instead
of those who have no interest in
common with you, who do not
support or contribute to your To-
cal affairs either civil or moral
Whenever you discontinue
patronizing local business places
you help create unemployment
among our local citizens and in
crease employment in other To-
calities.
You have had enough relief
and charity, you have been living
for the past several years under
dark clouds and with the help of
our local business men you have
been able to weather the storms
and pull through; now that the
silver lining is making its APP
pearance those business men who
have helped weather the storms
expect that you help them enjoy
some of its benefits.
An old saying is Beware of
strange Gods who come among
you offering gifts" Make it a
community interest to support in
situations which are already a
part of your city, who employ To-
cal people and contribute to the
support of. your local government
and other institutions. for in do
ing otherwise you help to create
unemployment among your citi,
zens which in turn causes hard
ships to their families. Until
these strange Gods become one
of us, you owe it to your self and
your local business houses to
give them your undivided sup
port and cooperation.
believe that this matter merits
your serious consideration.

SNEAD IS PICKED
OVER. CHAMPION
GuldahI Second Choice in
0pen-Accuracy Needed
on MiIe-High Links.
BY RUSS NEWLAND,
Associated Press Sports Writer,

.
DENVER, June 9.-Over picturesque
Cherry Hills, the mile-high course
where accuracy is the double watch
word, the country's foremost shot
makers sharpened their weapons to-
day for the first round of the 72-hole
national open golf championship.
As the field of great and near-great
teed off in what shaped up as the most
unpredictable title chase since Bobby
Jones retired in 1880, the role of IA
vorite was filled by Sammy Snead,
long-hitting West Virginian.
Defending Champion Ralph Gull
dahl was second choice. In practice
sessions the husky former st. Louis
automobile salesman, who set a ma
tional open record of 28l last year, ex-
plored the rough frequently.
Snead's pre-tournament workouts,
too, were not overly impressive, al
though his three-under- So was the
best round of the trials. A few days
later he scared to IS.
Others Find Backing.
Substantial backing also was found
for such seasoned campaigners as
Henry Picard. Paul Runyan, Horton
Smith. Dick Metz. Harry Cooper, Vic
Ghezzi. Bobby Cruicksllank, Jimmy
Thomson, Byron Nelson and Tony
Manero, title winner in 1886.
Jimmy Hines of New York and
Harold McSpaden Of Boston, carding
flnal practice rounds Of 50, injected
themselves into the thick of the specu-
lation. Johnny Revolta OF Chicago,
despite the handicap of a gashed I'm
ger, was well liked in some quarters.
Many an observer suggested the
name OF the only two-time winner on
the ground, stocky Gene Sarazen.
