struck last night on Simonton

and rather badly cut up, but is
resting well today at the Marine
Hospital
. Chief Deputy Sheriff Bernard
Waite today was attempting to
determine the driver of the We
hicle but had reached an i'm
passe with conflicting testimony
given by the various witnesses.
The number ID was mentioned
in the license number by many
of the witnesses. License records
of the county were checked and a
chauffeur and private individ-
ual questioned but both were apr
parently innocent and were al
lowed to go their way. The wit
neSses were not sure if the IA"
was the first part of the number
or the last If it was the first part
of the license, the car was from
Marion county in Florida.
Testimony also was vague con-
corning the type of car and the
color, although it was agreed that
the car was small Witnesses
said the driver slowed momen-
tarily then speeded on.
After the accident Mr.. Hilton
was picked up by J. c. Stevens,
Mr.. Light and Miss Hertel and
rushed to the hospital in Miss
Herteps car.
Mr.. Hilton is a retired insur-
ance salesman. He lives at pres
ent on Fleming street in the vi
cinity of the County Courthouse.

PATROL PLANES
PASS OVERHEAD
10 BELIEVED TO BE ON PA
troll FLIGHT FROM

GUANTANAMO BAY

Eighteen seaplanes, which pass
ed overhead this morning, We're
believed by Lieutenant Fort H.
Callahan, of the Key West Naval
Station, to be a naval patrol flight
out of Guantanamo Bay.
Lieutenant Callahan pointed
out that if the planes were flying
from one point to another that
the naval radio station here
would have guided them to their
destination, but if they were a
patrol flight out of Guantanamo
Bay they would be guided by ra-
dio from their base.

DEMOCRATS PLAN
FOR CONVENTION
PROPOSED MEETING TO BE
HELD IN OCALA BEGIN
MING MARCH rs

OCALA,. March Is. - (FNS)
Preparations are nearly COM
pleted for the biennial conven-
ton of Florida Young Democrats,
to be held here March Is and 26.
President w. H. Timmons of the
local club, after comforting with
State President Tom Ferguson of
Miami and other officials, has
made arrangements for an ex-
tensive program of entertain
ment. Leading speakers from
the Democratic ranks will be an
nounced shortly.
More than 200 Young Demo-
Gratis are expected to attend the
convention, at which several i'm
portant amendments to the or
ganization's constitution will be
brought up. One of them would
provide for an annual conven-
ton, rather than biennial as at
present and also for an annual
election of officers. Another
proposed measure would provide
for the selection of the next con-
vention city by the convention
as a whole, instead of leaving
that decision up to the executive
committee, as is done now.
1t is reported that there are at
least four or five candidates for
new president of the organiza-
ton already in the field Among
these are James Milligan of Or
lando, Dan Kelly of Fernandina,
Carl Gray of Panama City and
Ivan Javel of ST Petersburg.
