Garage-Parking lot
Use for Property
.Hit byCitizens
Southwest Association
Supports Claim Thot
Playground Is Jeopordized

Opposition to use of building and
adjoining property of the present
Jefferson Junior High School for a
garage and parking lot by the Dis
trict government rather than a
warehouse for District schools was
voted last night by the Southwest
Citizens Association at its meeting
in the school.
1t was pointed out by Hugh S.
Smith, principal of the school, who
made the motion, that use by the
District government would eliminate
the possibility of the area south of
the school being used as a play
ground and would affect the value
of surrounding property.
On a motion by the Rev. Harry
V. Porter the association unani-
mously advocated necessary dental
facilities and sterilizers as we'll as
elevator facilities in the new South
west Health Center. 1t was reported
that as the building was nearing
completion appropriations were not
sufficient to supply these necessary
additions. Harry S. Wender, presi-
dent of the association, declared
it was disgrace to the city" to
have built such an important struc-
ture and not have it fully equipped,
especially having to walk sick
people up three flights of steps,"
The group approved the proposed
building of the new Abbott Voca-
tional School on a Brentwood site
and asked that the stricken salaries
of $4,000 each for two District school
vocational directors be restored to
the District appropriations bill Also
included in the resolution was the
restoration of items for custodial
staff for the new Jefferson Junior
High School,
Adoption of a food stamp in the
District for surplus commodities was
urged.
Mr. Wender presented a resolution
favoring the Anderson bill calling
for the election of the two civilian
Commissioners in the District "as
step toward suffrage and in place
of the death of the vote in the
pending reorganization bill"
1t was stated in a report on the
sections youth unemployment situ-
alton that the Welfare Committee
had persuaded the bricklayers' local
to accept additional apprentices from

Francis Hart was appointed by
the president as chairman of the
Metropolitan Police Boys Club Com
mittee.

you can find them there each year.
After youthful days have been
spent in eating, shedding tight skin
and eating more to fill up q roomy
suit, there comes day when an
other urge is present. The second
stage Of these creatures is interest
ing, too, for the pupae are as re-
markable as the larvae. They trans
form within a hard mummy like
case that is protected from foes and
freeze by several inches of soil or
debris. Within this casket the
pupae transform into winged in
sects that will come forth in all their
glory during the summer days when
they will be able to fly about at dusk
and fasten eggs upon the host
plants.

beautiful moths. The father is clad

Almost all caterpillars are fasci-
mating to observe, but the truly
cahny ones are of the sphinx family
and every one of them bluffers-but
what buffers! They look as II they
could do much damage, when as a
matter Of fact. they are nearly all
perfectly harmless. Their huge
size and the anal horn that re-
sembles poison filled dagger look
quite alarming They have a strange
calm expression which is never
changed even when they are dis
turbed. The big fellow will rise al
most full length and is stationary
by the tail clasper in that position,
which is really wonderful by reason
of its pose and the long time 1t can
be held. Thus the name sphinx.

Tipsy in Court

After fning a colored defendant
$25 for staggering intoxicated into
Traffic Court, Police Court Judge
John P. Mcmahon yesterday indi-
Gated that he would post special
officers to arrest any person taking
a drink of liquor on Police Court
grounds.
II have heard rumors," Judge
Mcmahon remarked, that some
people who visit this building bring
whisky with them and drink it in
the public toilets. Such activity
must stop, and I intend to take i'm
mediate action to curb such prac-
tices."
The jurist said if necessary he
would assign special court officer
for that purpose. Its a disgrace
for a public building like this to be
used for such violations of the law"
he said.
Willie Wigenton, IS, colored, of
736 Harvard street NV. was ar
rested in the courtroom Tuesday.
He staggered to the rail while court
was in session and created disturb
ance when Bailiff James j. Powers
ordered him out. Bailiff Powers
then arrested Wigenton and lodged
him in a cell block.

Sensible Advice
On the subject of "those fabu-
lous glands" about which DR..
Bauer says that if it were not for
the pituitary glands and various
skin diseases "thc circus side
show and Mr.. Ripley's attractions
would be in a bad way" DR.. Bauer
has also this sensible piece of
advice.
I'm the middle years the SEN
sible attitude about glands is one
which allows for the acquisition
of information, the prompt con-
sultation with a physician when
something appears to be wrong,
the health check-up even when
nothing appears to be wrong, and
an attitude of healthy skerticism
about any promises which involve
the restoration Of youth, the def
mite extension Of life or The aboli-
ton Of the normal processes in
volved in the progressive airing of
tissues. Such an attitude will keep
the sensible person in the middle
years from fulfilling the adage
about no fool like an old fool"

Notes on a weekly meeting of
the Key West Players-We were
fortunate in dropping in at the
Art Center last night in that we
arrived just at the time old bust
ness had been disposed of. 1t
would be indeed a good thing,
we think, if one could always
pick that opportune moment to
drop in practically any place.
What a wonderful thing it would
be if the President would say to
as, Forget about the payments
you're still making on your old
car; think about the snappy
roadster you're going to get
when the new models come outl"
Sounds nicel Pardon the digres-
sion.
Ensign Jim Gerberding gave a
highly entertaining talk on the
Theater during the Golden Age
of Greece. We were surprised
to learn that the Greeks are the
people that started this whole
play-actin' business as we know
it today. They are the fellows
that invented those peculiar look
ing masks that hang around
theaters. One of them has a big
toothless grin and the other is a
sad lad who reminds US of Al
Jolson in the throes of Sonny
Boy. 1t appears that the Greeks
had their plays in football stadia,
consequently the actors were so
far from the last row in the
bleachers that we could have
slipped on a short skirt and
played Shirley Temples parts
like nothing. So they sneaked a
little padding under their cos
tunes. and with the aid of mega
phones installed in these large
masks they probably sounded
like cheerleaders and avoided
looking like a flea circus at the
county fair. According to the
speaker, though, the actors still
got the bird, which at that time
evidently consisted of throwing
small boulders in addition to the
familiar garden vegetables, to
say nothing of boos and jeerS.
We were just thinking that per-
haps the padding served dual
purpose! This chat also had to
do with a lot of writers whose
names we can't remember be-
cause they were too long.
No sooner had the meeting
been adjourned than we were
admonished to be quiet or leave,
for Guy Carleton, the director of
Broken Dishes, was starting a
rehearsal. Before we could get
to the door the gallery of the
Key West Art Center was the
living room of the Bumpsted
home. whether we liked it or
not!
