THIS IS A NEW COLUMN for
The Key West Citizen. 1t is
started as a means of disseminat-
ing news of interest to the Naval
personnel here at Key West, and,
also, to better acquant the citi
zens of Key West with the Navy,
its work, its daily life, its trials
and tribulations, and its joys
and sorrows. o}te
The Navy constitutes goodly
percentage of the activity here.
1t is only fitting that it should
have voice to tell of its activi-
ties. At the present time there
are approximately 125 families
of officers and enlisted personnel
residing here and more arriving
from time to time.
News items are necessary to
keep a column going. If any of
you have an item that you think
might be of interest to someone
please send it in. Even though
you don't think it is of interest
send it in anyway and let us
Judge it. Some item that you
might believe to be incense
quential and of no matter might
be of interest to someone else.
This is your column. All l can
do is try to gather the news and
prepare it for The Citizen. Your
cooperation is asked for and
will be appreciated.
