CITES PROGRESS
AT BALL STADIUM
AURELro LAsTREs. sR. BASE.
BALL FAN. OUTLINES MANY
IMPROVEMENTS MADE

Aurelio Lastres, Sr., baseball en-
thusiast of Key West, who resides
at go Simonton street. had the
following to say today in connec-
ton with the City Baseball Stad-
ium on Flagler avenue:
Considering the shortage of
manpower and other drawbacks
the new City Baseball Stadium
on Flagler Avenue is now being
rapidly improved, with hopes of
having the project completed
within a short time.
1t makes one wonder to stand
and view the great Transformation
that has taken place in convert
ing the old dump pile or inciner-
ator grounds into a well laid out
baseball field.
This stadium when fully COM
pleted will be a great credit to the
city, and will take its place among
many of the other baseball fields
throughout the state.
THE citizens of Key West in
general have heartily cooperated
in making this stadium possible,
and / feel that it is very commend
able on the part of each one who
has put forth efforts toward OBJ
tanning city baseball field for
the Island City.
There will be a meeting of the
committee held on Wednesday
night, beginning at o'clock, and
urge all members and all 9TH
ers interested to be in attend
ance, and to put forth their efforts
toward bringing this new prof.
ect, City Baseball Stadium, to
successful conclusion"

SOUND SCHOOL

LEAGUE GAME
SUBMARINE AGGREGATION
NOW HAS ONE VICTORY.
ONE LOSS AND TIE IN
SERVICE MEMS LOOP

The powerful Sound Schools
ball team won its first game in
the American division of the Island
Service Mems League last night
by vanquishing the Boca Chica
Army lads by 7-2 score.
The victory gives the Sound
School a record of one win, one
loss and a tie. 1t was beaten by
the Naval Operating Base Satur-
day, l4-2, and had tie with the
50th Coast Artillery, SIS. The de-
feat was the second in row for
the Boca Chicans for they were
previously downed by the Ma
rines, 81.
Tonight the Coast Guard, pres
ent leader of the loop with two
straight triumphs, will oppose the
powerful 50th Coast Artillery of
Fort Taylor. An Army win will put
it in first place while another vic
tory for the Coast Guardsmen will
shove them way up front in the
still young race.
Tomorrow at $50 the Ma
rines will return to the wars by
opposing the Fast Naval Operat-
ing Base, and Thursday the Sound
School is slated to meet the Coast
Guard.

"Just thinking out loud" Kath-

And they danced on and on.

Fred had little more to say.
He was weary. That was easy to
see. All the sparkle had gone out
of him. And Kathleen felt a surge
of disappointment. She had
thought that there might be an
opportunity to talk acting to Fred
on the way home-but she now
decided not to mention the mat
ter.
There wouldn't be any use, any
way-with Fred acting as though
he might fall asleep at the wheel
any moment. She sank back
against the upholstery and closed
her eyes.
She kept hoping that her COM
panion would become more wide
awake as the early morning air
blew upon them, that he would
start talking to her.
But he didn't. And she decided
to say nothing herself.
They sped on in silence.

Up She Goes!

onal part to break the line, that is.
start from the corner of the left
brow, sweeping across to the crown
of your head, ending at the back in
line with your right brow. For your
more formal moments, brush it all
up in curls-or arrange the front
in fluffy bangs. Reverse the pro-
cedure by taking the same little
pomp and combing 1t neatly back
ward into reverse curl and the
result is efficient enough to get you
job anywhere. AS you see, this
new short cut is one that can switch
from the daytime to the glamour
shift by just the flick of the hair
brush.
The short cut is knockout on a
naturally curly mop. However, all is
not lost If your hair is not curly,
because good permanent can take
over where nature left of. Just be
careful that your permanent has a
natural look. Too many of us sue
cumb to the idea that permanent
won't last if it isn't tight. Remem-
Der, you're not being gypped if the
operator gives you a loose curl. It
will last 1ust as long as tight curl
and the effect will be far superior to
the Fiji Island effect you're apt to
get from too much curl And that
goes for hair of any length.
Another hint if you're going to try
the short cut to beauty. The most i'm
portant part in having and keeping
a good short coiffure is in the shap-
ing. Gould be Shakespeare was
thinking of our crowning glory when
he wrote, There is a divinity that
shapes our ends.') Seriously though,
one of the hairdressers in town who
has a way with a pair of shears
insists that he can almost cut a curl
in your hair. although what he really
does is to shape your hair in way
that encourages whatever curl you
have-be 1t ever so feeble. Ger
tainly, we know (and we learned it
the hard way) that properly shaped
hair is much easier to manage, no
matter what the length.
Wearing your tresses short will
show off your hair-or it may show
1t up. So-a word to the wise. The
condition of your hair has lot to
do with the looks and permanency
Of your permanent, as well as the
way it takes" new styling or cut.
If your hair is dull and lifeless, get
to work on conditioning before you
even think of cut or curl. In
couple of weeks there will be an in
formation center on Care of the
Hair run by research laboratory to
which you can hike yourself and get
free analysis of what's wrong
or the answer to why can't I do a
thing with it?" In the meantime,
get out your hairbrush and start
brushing for beauty's sake. How
ever, if welding a hair brush is too
much for you. investigate scientific
home treatment that doesn't require
the rigors of daily brushing and
massage. It's simply a glandular
extract which you apply to the scalp,
with follow-up of a fluffy egg-type
shampoo. All very compact, The
girls in the services say it's beauty
boon in places where they have to do
their own hair.

furniture, first in relation to It's use
and then revamp 1t according to its
design as compared with its use.
This last point seems to be the
first difi1culty most new housekeep-
ers have to trouble them. With a
desk as one of the important pieces
of furniture to be placed, 1t would
seem to be practical to put the desk
where 1t would get good light, and
where 1t would be somewhat out of
the trafiic lanes, as most Of us like
privacy when writing. From the
use angle this would preclude the
space between two doors on the
long innerside of the room as both
the light and the constant passing
to and fro would be annoying. But
suppose your desk is Of the tall
secretary variety which is an ex-
cellent wall decoration and fianked
by two small pul1-up chairs looks
exactly right In this space. Suppose
also, that you are not a very good
correspondent and your time spent
at the desk Is merely the few hours
a month it takes to pay the family
accounts. Then, the decorative value
Of this piece Of furniture supercedes
it's use value and you would be wise
in placing 1t where 1t does the most
for the appearance Of your room.
Suppose your grand piano has al
ways occupied the best window space
because your son or daughter spent
many hours practicing and their
young crowd liked to gather there
every afternoon - which is reason
enough. But now the son is off to
the services and daughter away at
school and the piano is unused week
after week. It would be far more
reasonable to place 1t in far cor
ner of the room for the present,
releasing the sunny window for a
chair and table group which might
be enjoyed each day by the members
OF the family who are at home.
The same revamping according to
use and comfort might be very we'll
planned in each room of the house.
The dining room is probably as lit
tie used for the amount OF space 1t
takes as any room in the house
Consider how it might be put to
greater use as a combination dining
room and study with the table and
chairs removed from their usual
center-of- thereon arrangement.
Count up how many times you
make trip all the way around the
foot of the bed to reach the closet
on the other side of the room See
what could be done by another
bed arrangement which would take
you on a direct line from the en-
trance door to the wardrobe. AL
