Key West are the productions
given by the Key West Players
Startling on Monday the produc-
ton tBLtTHE SPIRIT viii be
presented az the theatre, which is
in the rear Of the Wofilan,s, Club
house. It used to be years ago
that the only plays presented
here by the various organizations
were comedies, most of them
somewhat old but play such as
"Blithe Spirit" can be enjoyed
by everyone. 1t is very famous
play, written by the noted Eng
lish writer, Noel Coward. 1t is
directed by MAZDA AND JOSEF
LAZAROVICI, who have directed
many of the productions the
group has put on in the past.

a joy to behold. Only three
strokes behind him was Lanky

into the rough on the seth hold.
This was a spot to behold. The
ball rested against tough root on
the ground. under a tree facing
the direction of the green. Joe
waved his five iron around abit

shot the ball out into the fair
way. Gilmore's next shot then
