Two of the publicists in the
field here in Key West are nigh
ty fine fellows. Many people
state that they are our compel. =
tors" but to tell you the truth
they simply augment" Key
Vests long-established line OF
newspapers. Key West is hungry
for publicity right now and the
more that can be given the more
will be welcome. EARL ADAMS
has always been friendly with us
and sticks very nicely to newspa-
per ethics. JOHN SPOTS
WOOD, manager of Radio Station
WKWF, and descendant of one OF
Key Vests oldest families, is an
other straight-shooting fellow, We
may have differences of opinion
on news and other matters but on
The main lines we'll all beIin there

A most regrettable incident oer
CURED recently. MR.. AND MIeS.
ALEXANDER BARMINE, EC
GENE LYONS and MRS. EMILY
GODDARD were at South Beach
recently and were taking daily
exercises in the invigorating
morning air with the sunshine
pouring down, when a group of
lads about ID or Is years old APP
preached and commenced throw
ing a basketball around. When
asked if they would go over to TIE
other court or wait about ten min
utes until the exercising was over
they became very angry and be
gan to throw the basketball into
the group. Finally, Mr.. Barm;ne
picked UP the ball and give it to
sailor boys nearby. Then the lit
tie fellows became very angry
and very abusive in their lam
guage. The exercisers were re-
ferred. to .gderisivelY last tours 5
and oven as Nazis, because of MI.
.Barmine's accent. Now Mr.. Bar
mine served with the American
Army during the war and was
with the all-important Office OF
Strategic Services. He is a for
mer Brigadier with the Russian
Army and that accounts for the
bit of "old Russia. MIR. Lyons
is former editor of The Ameri-
can Mercury. Mrs. Goddard once
sang in the White House before
President Roosevelt. Both the
Barmines and the Goddards have
purchased homes here. These
folks shrugged off the incident
but it is to be regretted that they
were subjected to such treatmen:
