John Jablonsky, well construct
ed 210-pound tackle any coach
would welcome on his squad, will
lead American University's rejuve-
mated Eagles on the gridirorY this
season.
The popular Hicksville, Long
Island, youths teammates went
into huddle yesterday and elected
him unanimously on, the first bal
lot, restoring the captaincy to a
ineman for the first time in sew
eral years.
Coach Staff Cassell had a time
finding his way around on the field
yesterday as IS candidates reported
for scrimmage. Casseu, unaccus-
toned to numbers on the A. U.
squad, sent an assistant manager
to clear the field of visiting players
before realizing they were his own.
Hugo Schultz, end; Kenny Fox,
200-pound tackle, and Archie Nor
ford, a back, were outstanding in
the Eagles first contact work of
the season and Cassell had reason
to believe at the finish that the
team will be no doormat for teams
in its class this year.
Dave Thatcher, the back who
scored Americans lone touchdown
of the season against Johns Hopkins
last year, was on the field but may
not be able to take his regular place
in the lineup because of an injured
knee. But he insists he'll be out for
practice and probably will play more
than expected.

Key West Conchs last night
met defeat at the hands of Hazel
wood Red Raiders from Pitts
burgh, Penna., after a hard bat
tie.
In the first stanza the Conchs
had. small lead over the Raiders
but scientific pass work played
to perfection set the pace for the
Hazels to down the local cagers.
Dick Friend, Raider forward,
was high point man with IA to
his credit, while Schoneck for the
local five was second with 10
points.
| Approximately 400 spectators
were on hand to witness the
game and comments made show

NATURE NOTES
Reprinted From Port AlleganY tPenna.)
Reporter and ARGUS
By j. C. GALLOWAY.

The Citizen presents herewith
another in the series entitled,
Nature Notes, from the pen of
J. C. Galloway.
These articles appear regularly
in the Port Allegany Penna.)
Reporter and Argus, and are COM
posed as Mr.. and Mrs. Galloway
are guests in this city.
Following is the latest article:
''When the cold of an unusually
severe winter covers. the north
ern states, its margins spread far
Their and farther to the South;
and this winter, as our readers al
ready know. freezing tempera-
lures reached the entire peninsula
of Florida, working havoc with
truck and citrus crops. Here at
Key West the lowest recorded
temperature was. Al degrees, nine
above the freezing point. 1t oft
en- happens that light frost occurs
in places during such tempera-
lures, perhaps caused, and per-
haps not, by the rapid evapora-
ton of dew at these points. 1t
is also well known that some
tropical plants are injured at As
degrees; and here at Key West,
while the damage was very slight,
some foliage was scorched bit,
leaves dropped here and there,
poinciana plumes and in some
places coconut fronds withered
somewhat, as they might on trees
cut and in the sun and wind for
an hour or two. But SO far as
we know there was no perman-
ent injury; and except for these
minor touches, the city is as full
of garden beauty as ever.
ct was about the same with
the folks. This is said to be the
coolest winter here in 81 years;
and as there are very few Chin
neys in the city, and only on rare
occasions any need for artificial
heating, little or no provision is
made for it; sometimes a gas or
oil stove or a fireplace, or none;
and while some more or less
homesick residents welcomed the
cold after almost a full year of
warm summer, others shivered
and chilled to the bone for days.
The sea air is damp, and the cold
strikes in; 81 degrees feels. like
then came Al. As, Al. The
houses are colder inside than
out; and so it happened that one
church service was held in the
churchyard against the sunny
wall because it was too cold in
side, which is not the way in the
north.
"All that is over now, for the
present at least, and again we
are having delightful spring or
summer weather. But the sea
water has been cool all winter.
We gave up wading the shoals
long ago. The beach bathers and
sun worshippers held out longer.
But the water grew colder and
colder. and when at last, as we
are told, the drift came down
from the wintry shores of the
Gulf states, something happened
that occurs only at intervals of
many years. And if you care to
have a most novel adventure,
and to see something you never
saw before and may never see
again, just come along with us.
Starting out for a walk in the
we meet Mr.. and Mrs.
DAZZLE of Oregon, now residents

wagon. The fish are benumbed

SIX MATCHES
SCHEDULED In
BOXING SHOW
STRAND ARENA READY FOR
FIGHT CARD TOMORROW
NIGHT: REVIEW OF BOXING
IN AREA GIVEN

Oh dIiQ H1GIld .0OAAliS 0ltOW,
under auspices or the National
Guard, gets underway tomorrow
night at the arena on Duval
street, newly-constructed for a
program of boxing this season.
The initial card contains a main
bout and five preliminaries.
Local fighter, Mario Perez, 145,
mixes with Jimmy Maddox in
the main affair for. ten rounds.
In the preliminaries, Buddy
Spidel, AS, will meet Red Rob-
erts, 40, for six rounds, and
Tiger Woods, 145, and Battling
Czech, 148, will fight the same
number Of rounds.
Two four-round bouts will fea-
ture Tampa Tiger, 1913, and John
Torres, 125, and Eddie Alfonso,
155, and Kid Tarzan, 160.
The first boxing card for Key
West in several years has focused
attention on things fistic and for
the benefit of followers of the
rosen and canvas a brief outline
of national fighting activities is
presented herewith.
Of Importance to South Flori-
dams was the arrival in Miami
Sunday of Gus Lesnevich, who
will meet Billy Conn in the
Orange Bowl Stadium on Feb
ruary %. Conn is the light-heavy-
weight champion of the werld.
Mike Jacobs, matchmaker and
president of the Twentieth Cen
fury Sporting Club, says that
Lesnevich is Tough and expert
enced and he knows Conn's best
points and faults. He stands IN ex-
cellent chance of trimming Billy.
Conn is aiming for a bout with
Joe Louis, heavyweight champ,
and if he defeats Gus two weeks
from now he will be matched
against the Brown Bomber late
this summer. After a drill of
two weeks in New York, Gus is
in the pink of condition for his
tussle with Conn. He followed
up his training today at the Flor
ida Athletic Club. Conn went
into training yesterday at Mi
ami Beach arena.
Arturo Godoy, who went fiji
teen rounds with Joe Louis last
week, is hailed by Mike Jacobs
as being an immense help to the
boxing game. More fans will
come to Louis future fights be-
cause they will believe that his
opponents have a good opportun-
ity to beat him.. Jacobs said in
Miami yesterday. Louis defin-
itely hasn't slipped. He is just
as good now as he ever was. 1
don't believe he looked bad
against Godoy. It's my belief
that no fighter would have knock
ed out the South American, con-
sidering the way that Godoy was
fighting. 1t would have been
impossible for any fighter to land
a telling punch on Godoy as long
as he stayed in his crouch. ia
cobs was both pleased and sur
prised at Godoy's performance
with Louis.
Ben Brown flattened Billy Re-
gan, of San Francisco, in the fifth
round of a scheduled 10-round
bout Sunday in Feat Lauderdale.
Brown, who fought in Miami
while back. sent Regain to the
canvas once before he koed him
with a right to the jaw. The VIC
tor is of Atlanta, Ga.
Johnny Burns, 65, who won the
national amateur featherweight
title when he was Is, died in
Philadelphia Sunday from in
juries received in a fall three days
previous. He was known as
Iron Hat Johnny.

Through error The United

Fire losses in the United
States last year exceeded 313

losses ever recorded were $40

While not advocating the pick

toothpicks as an aid in prevent
ing pyorrhea and other disorders

is often ineffective in removing

And oh, look at these cute lit
tie cowfish; hard triangular boxes
of ivory dotted with purple, and
Icut out in places so they may
wag fins and tail. And here are
small brown swellfish with dark
spots; like drowned mice now
with no ambition to blow up like
footballs. What an opportunity
this is to learn what lives in these
waters! Lots of little file-fish,
kite-shaped and rough, and spot
ted like the dead grass they live
in. Lane snappers like rose buds
in pink and silver and long as
your hand, the larger ones hav-
| ing been picked up by earlier
corners; mutton snappers like
them but bigger and paler. And
here are dog snapperS and school
masters with yellow fins, and a
little peacock founder like a
gray rug for a doll house. My,
this is interesting! But look at
this! This tiny jewel the size of
a mans watch, and thinner than
a vanilla wafer; lovelier than any
canary in light and deep yellow,
with golden and purple-olive
tone, and wearing scarf of rich
purple edged with bright blue.
It's a young Queen angel, and
prize, for it is one of the most
beautiful of the jewellers of the
sea. But now we have come to
the abutmentS of the former rail-
road bridge over the channel that
leads into the yacht basin, and
must turn back. Let's try the
