Hudson Back From Wars.
Wants Sens Mound Post
BY JACK HAND

OnLANOO, ID, Z CD. 1d-N0
| Sid Hudson is back in circulation
after three years, two months and
10 days in the Army Air Force,
anxious to pitch Washington to the
pennant it missed by a measly
game and a half last fall.
The memory of that unhappy
climax is still green in the Sena-
tors camp because the boys real
| ly thought they had a chance to
win the big money. They were in
the race until Hank Greenberg
smashed that grand slam homer
on the last day of the season in
st. Louis. Hudson shared the Sena-
tors disappointment some 5000
miles away on a Pacific island
base.
Every Washington hired hand,
from Manager Ossie Bluege to the
trainer, agrees that the presence
of a pitcher like Hudson would
have made the difference in those
final weary days of doubleheaders
| in September.
Hudson was hurting for an Army
team then with such mates as
Birdie Tebbets, Stan Rojek, Lew
Riggs, Johnny Sturm, Buster Mills
and other stars. He says he gave
up the ghost when the Senators
blew four straight to the Yankees
in New York.
This likeable Tennessean. who
broke into the big leagues in 1910
on the strength of a 24-4 win record
in a class D league at Sanford,
Fla, thinks he can pick up his ca
reer where he dropped 1t in 1912.
In three years of pitching for a
team that never was better than
sixth, the record books show Hud'
son won 40 games and lost Al in
the American league. His first
year up he COPIED II victories.
There were reports that Sid came
up with a sore arm in the Pacific
that might end his playing days.
Hudson SCOTS at such stories. He
shows you the spot just below his
right shoulder where he felt the
pain but insists several xrays
have failed to show anything
wrong.
'They said I would never be able
to pitch again." recalled the slim
l28-year-old Highlander. The day
I read that story had just finish
ed pitching a game.
IT think I learned little in the
army. I was fooling around with
a slider and also discovered how
to slow up a little. I pitched over
200 innings in each of two years
at Waco, Tex, and about rs in
nings last year in the Pacific. Ce'
|cil Travis, Jake Early, Roger Wolff
and I have been down to Hot
|Springs (Ark) for a few weeks,
taking the baths and going on
hikes"
Sid has one worry. His little
black note book of American league
|hitters is sadly out Of date.
"Guess I'll have to 60 to work on
a new one," grinned the serious
minded veteran who makes a real
study of the pitching business.
Birdie Tebbets and l were bat
lterymates in all the games we
played in service. He's going back
Ito Detroit and that's the one club
we've got to beat above all 9th.
ers."
Bluege seemed pleased to find
Hudson in such good physical con-
dition.
After Bluege went away Hudson
commented, ''oldOs sure has aged
since I saw him last in 1912"
Roger Wolff, who was sitting
close by cracked, Eyes, and most
of it came from guy named
Greenberg last September"

smart advertising program!

Key West jeweier, answers that

Finally, we come to Dan Ma
varro's concrete suggestion. Let
the Chamber Of Corimerce confer
with. the Overseas Road and Toll
Bridge District commission, with
the county commission, which
should have a. new budget for
this summer, believe, and with
the city government. which
should have a new budget by
next fall, and see if the various
political subdivisions" of the city
cannot make a major contribu-
ton toward an advertising fund
for campaign this winter. Be-
sides this, and I have talked to
the majority of businessmen, con-
tributions may be obtained from
local businessmen for another
bolstering of the drive. To put
out one dollar this fall is to bring
ten dollars back. 1t is an old
rule in advertising and | have
seen it work time and time
again.
May I state once again this
point: We don't know how long
the Navy will be here BIZ; the
tourist program can be With lis
as steady thing. Why are we
waiting and running around with
talk in blind alleys?

The first advertising since the
war ended which was circulated
in Miami was put there by the
Hotel Association of Key West.
The Key West Citizen then fol-
lowed with permission granted
to Florida Sportsman and other
publications to pick up the quaint
feature stories of Key West, to-
gether with the tremendous ar
ticles on fishing catches made
here. Also, much material was
supplied newspaper and book
writer's. Now, John Spottswood
of Radio Station WKWF tells me
that he has contracted for a daily
ad in The Miami News, which
will advertise Key West. The
first signs of snappy advertising
program are underway

/ had been hearing this pecu-
liar proposition for some time
now about waiting five years or
something like that and then
starting TO advertise Key West
and so ! got a big bang out of the
expressed voice of the business
men Of the community in which
they said that we should posi-
lively advertise and that we
should start planning now for
next falls advertisement.
I could not believe that COM
rnunity which is bright and awake
as Key West seems to be right
now could be so lulled that it
would not advertise And was
not disappointed. The business
men interviewed were all strong
for advertising. Joe Pearlman's
two quoted past experiences with
advertising were highly signific-

Advertise, still holds true. Just

efforts many of the Jaycee prof.

American way, is pretty hot stuff

Incidentally, Pearlman gave
the instance of around 1927, which

listening to all the talk about
boom days in Florida and the
flappers in Miami and lands

Key West in those days put in a
new hotel, built a Boulevard
around the Island and started
the Road to the Mainland. Also
II started an advertising program
with a local non-profit commit
tee, which sought expert advice
on proper advertising. This adj
vertising brought results. Mr..
Pearlman said. After that, it was
