 Duke was stubborn and was as strong as in the past season, unde- feated, united and unscored.
 Dukes lone tally came in the fourth quarter, Tony Ruffa, place gicking star, booting a field goal from the 23-yard line.
 Duke then thought the game was sewed up, especially when they re- pulsed the Trojans on the 9-yard line and failed to capitalize on a pair of blocked Trojan punts.
 California gained 135 yards by rushing, and Duke 86 yards.

The girls vary perhaps four inches from shortest to tallest; but being graduated, like strand of pearls, from largest in the center to smallest on the ends, they appear, when lined up, to be almost iden- tical in stature.
 The important thing, says Mar kert. is that all of the girls are identical in figure.

PEACE OFFENSIVE COLLAPSES

The Hitler peace offensive, which in
Guided copious threats of 'blood-bath"
unless neutrals persuaded the allies to
negotiate, has utterly failed. No neutral
nation has taken UP the offer of Herr
Hitler, whose clustering diplomacy is
taken as an indication of weakness rather
than strength.
This effort to prevent the Inaugural
ton of war on an intensive scale has been
in line with predictions before Hitler's
armies marched into Poland. 1t was Der
Fuehrers idea that, after the Polish ques-
ton was settled, France and England
would be willing to call off a useless
war.
The answer of the British and
French, through responsible leaders, has
been that peace and security in Europe
are impossible as long as Germany's great
offensive power threatens smaller nations,
that no confidence can be placed upon the
word of the present German government
and that something more than words will
be required before the allies can proceed
to negotiate general settlement of Eu-
ropean issues.

Along with virtually every other Flor
ida community, Key West at present is
suffering from an oversupply of mos
quitoes. Why there should be such an un-
usual number of the pests this year is
question that is being debated with some
heat and much slapping. The concensus
seems to be they developed after the heavy
rains that flooded every low section of the
state.
Whatever the cause, everyone knows
the effect. They drive our citizens half
out of their minds and many of our visitors
out of town in the mistaken belief they can
find relief elsewhere in Florida They
are a serious menace to peace and COM
fort and threat to any prosperity the city
expects from the tourist trade.
Therefore, our public officials should
bestir themselves in an effort to control
the breeding of the pests. To be sure,
WPA mosquito control has been started
here 1t involves drainage of ponds at the
upper end of the island and other works
that will take a lot of time Eventually
this control project will have the desired
effect, but it offers no immediate relief.
If it is possible our city and council
officials should make an effort to dig up
a few dollars for the employment of trucks
and men to oil the ponds puddles and re-
servoirs of the city. 1t is reported that the
navy every week disposes of large guam
tity of waste oil drained from the seaplane
motors. If some of this could be obtained
and trucked to the underwater sections of
the city it might prove of great benefit in
cutting down the mosquito birth rate. A
few residents have tried oiling ponds near
their homes and report the effort resulted
in large reduction in mosquitoes.
1t is too bad the mosquitoes had to
come along just when some of our public
officials are campaigning for votes. The
Citizen hates to make the suggestion, but
it hopes our public officials will drop poll
tics for little while and take up mos
quitoes. We believe the public officials
who attack the mosquitoes with the same
vigor they put into attacks upon their
political opponents will earn the undying
thanks of our citizens-and pick up a lot
of votes.

UP TO THE STATES

While amendments to the Social Sc
curity Act increased the amount of money
that the Federal government will con-
tribute monthly to the needy aged, this
does not mean an immediate increase for
those receiving such assistance.
In fact, because of a provision that
the States have to match the Federal gov
eminent on $3.50 basis, the increase will
be available only to those on the rolls of
California. In all other States it will be
necessary for the State governments to put
up additional funds before the Federal in
crease will be available.
There is a wide difference in the
amounts now put up by the States, ranging
from $17.45 in California to $306 in
Arkansas. The Social Security Board esti-
mates that 1857 900 persons are drawing
funds under the program, with Illinois
leading the field with 133,5O0 persons.

Binding only in the District of Column
bia and the Federal territories, President
RoOsevelt's statement that he would pro-
claim November % instead of November
30 as Thanksgiving this year, while caus-
ing confusion in many ways, will result in
a.break for Texas which will observe both
days as it is an important turkey-produc-
ing state The States are about equally
divided in celebrating either November %
or November 80, Florida sticking to the
old custom of observing the last Thursday
IN November which is November go On
either day turkey will be as palatable to
those fortunate enough to get some of the
meat, white or dark, between grinders.
