Capt. Meredith, one of the Ma

belief the expeditions might have
been intended to obtain informa-
ton for future action.
He said that although Goering
was a known falconer, "it seemed
strange that he should put the gov
ernment to such an expense when
1t was undergoing such economic
and political change"
Five Germans stayed in Green
land six months and returned after
capturing six gyrfalcons, Capt.
Meredith said, adding:

cover a lot of general and specific

INDIAN OUTFlELDER
Visiting City With Mother
LIKES THIS CLIMATE

e~sss
BY PEDRO AcUILAR

Bruce Campbell, star right
fielder of the Cleveland Indians,
who arrived in Key West Thurs
day with his mother in his La
Sale automobile and Schultz
trailer, will remain here for a
stay of two weeks.
Bruce declares he likes this
climate very much and although
he owns property in Bradenton,
Sarasota and Fl. Myers, he claims
he will purchase additional prop
erty in Key West to spend the
winters here.
The Indian outfielder, who
batted .287 in 100 games last sea-
son, told the writer he tried to get
Rollie Hemsley, Luke Sewen and
Sammy Hale to make the trip
with him but they had other
plans. However, he promised
that they will spend two weeks
in the city before spring training
begins.
Campbell smashed out 129 hits
for a total of 202 bases during
the season last year. Among his
clouts were % doubles, Is triples
and eight homers. He sacrificed
seven times, stole seven bases and
was caught stealing six times.
He walked 81 times, struck out
48 times, hit by pitcher three
times and batted in 70 runs. He
averaged .287.
Campbell bats left and throws
right-handed. He played the
rightfield in lis games in 1899,
scoring 200 putouts and IL assists
and committing Is errors in a to-
tai of 225 chances. He started
three double plays. His fielding
percentage is .942.
Campbell says he likes the
brand of ball played in Key West
and believes that a number of
the locals have a good chance to
make some Class c or D League
with the proper handling.

MORE ON STARS

Editor, The Citizen:
So many people have spoken
to me about the letter you pub
lished from me concerning the
stars that I am encouraged to
write you another letter on the
same subject.
Key West is the best place in
the United States to observe the
stars because many stars of the
southern ATTITUDES are visible
here that cannot be seen else
where.
l want to call your readers at
tention to the March of the
Moon" across the sky at the
present time. 1t is about SIS
minutes higher every night as it
increases its light.
It has already had a conjunc-
ton with Venus, the brightest
evening star of them all.
Now it is marching toward a
conjunction with Jupiter, after
which it will have q conjunction
with Mars, then Saturn, then
Uranus, then the PleiadeS. and
other stars. All of which is
plainly and beautifully visible
here, on an east and west line
across the sky that almost
reaches the zenith. This line, of
course, is the zodiac, the belt
travelled by the planets in their
orbits around the sun.
Yours sincerely,
SMOOT PEBBLES.
