.'Ole Miss. Win
Is Seen Sat.
Over Auburn
BY The Associated Press


Those who like to see the fur
fly in a football game stand a
pretty good chance of satisfaction
in the MiSsissipp-Auburn clash on
Saturday.
Some of the experts are saying
Mississippi is one of the top teams,
if not the topmoSt, in the South
eastern Conference. And they hold
Steadfast in their belief even though
Ole Miss was held to a 1913 tie
by Kentucky.
Auburn's stock scared after the
Plainsmen held mighty Maryland
to 1877 score.
Ole Miss has lot of big tough
backs and Auburn has some fur
ripping guys, too--such as Rigas
Coptsias, Herman Howard, Charles
Hathaway and Vince Dooley. Coach
Ralph Jordan also has some great
reserve strength in rugged fresh
men. The frosh handled the varsity
pretty roughly in yesterdays prac-
tice.

Coach Bobby Dodd of Georgia
Tech is hoping Fullback Glen
Turner from Talladega, Ala, will
do much better job against
Southern Methodist Saturday than
he did against Florida. If Glen
gets loose on his famed runs
against S. M. u, Dodd won't have
too much to worry about.
Georgia's Coach Wally Butts is
tutoring three of his top linemen
in the art of defensive play as
well as offensive in special prep
aration for North Carolina.
Tackles James (Babyl Locke and
Jerry Griffin and Guard Bruce
Wimberley heretofore have been

players. Butts ran short of defen-

Gen. Bob Neyland impressed his

Coneh Gridmen Face Four Straight
Toug h Tests After Two Easy Starts

Coach Ed Beckman Of the Key
West high school football agrega-
ton, pointed out today that the Red
and White which is currently rid

streak, sis over the easy ones" and
from now on down to the curtain
they viii have their work cut out
for them, when they face four of
their toughest oponents of the cam
paign starting with Lake Worth a
week from Friday.
''We've got to snap out of it;
we've met two teams when we had
the edge, but if we don't get down
to business, we are going to be
plenty surprised some Friday
night" Beckman added.
Besides the fact that his squad
is inexperienced, Beckman has a
psychological problem to cope with
after a pair of easy wins in the
seasons opener.
lake Worth, who held Fort
Pierce, one of the heaviest and
most experienced Schoolboy grid
agregations in the state to a draw
last week, will have a decided edge
over the Conehs. The Lake Worth
boys held their own in the contest
and when the game ended were
threatening from the Ft. Pierce
ten yard line.
The key to the situation might
well be the tilt between Pa
hokee and Lake Worth which is set
for this coming Friday. The Conchs
captured an easy 26-T win over the
Blue Devils last week. They are
said to be the weakest team that
the Conchs will meet this season
and decisive victory on the part
of Lake Worth could indicate the
outcome Of their upcoming meeting
with the Conchs.
Beckman is working his boys
nightly on their offensive game and
next week will set the second
stringers up in a simulated Lake
Worth offense, so that the locals
will know what to look for come
the big night.
Lake Worth was well secuted by
the Conch high command and ac-
cording to those in the know runs

quotes from the opposing pitchers

Joe Black, Brooklyn-The way /

at all. After watching them work

dress shop owners located in
the La Concha Hotel presented and
fitted Mrs. Wilhelminia G.Harvey
with a Frank williamson dress
creation with the compliments Of
their store and those of the Miami
manufacturing dress firm.
The gift was occasioned by the
return of this local First Lady,"
wife of Mayor c. B. Harvey, to her
hometown after being honored by
the Tenth District Business and
Professional Women's Clubs in
being selected as one of the Is out
standing career women in the area
between Pompano and Key West.
The selection was made in connec-
ton with National Business Wo-
mans Week celebration.
Fourteen career women were Sc
lected from the Miami area, and
the judges "dipped down" to the
Southernmost city to choose their
own State BPW president as one
of the Is.
Among the Key West people who
were. present at the breakfast in
Miami at the time Mrs. Harvey re-
ceived the honor were Mr.. & Mrs.
Ellis Finch of the Key West Citizen,
Mrs. Joan Mardis of National
Studios and her daughter, and BPW
State Secretary, Mrs. Grace Cros-
by.
Both Mrs. Harvey and Mrs. Cros-
by spoke on the detectives of a
business woman Saturday night
over Station WHO'D, Miami. On this
occasion Mrs. Harvey wore a
Miami-made Madeline Moore"
dress from the Key West Mar-Ed
distributor.
The Key West choice was based
on the outstanding success of Mrs.
Harvey in her profession and the
contributions she has made to state
and civic betterment. During her
tenure as Key West BPW president,
her history of the clubs achieve
ments won first place in the entire
state federation. History repeated
itself, because again last year as
president of the Key West Chapter
of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority, her
leadership won recognition because
of the work projected by the chap
ter having won for themselves the
title, "Most outstanding Beta chap
ter in the State of Florida" during
1851.
The past weekend eliminated
Mrs. HarveyAs "whistle-stop" tour
of National Business Woman's
Week when she was a guest of the
Tampa BPW Club and later spoke

a card picturing a Seminole Indian
named "Old Charlie" who at 80
years of age is shown s'whittling"
away at a cypress log making a
canoe. It does not remind me OF
anyone by that name, but it does
as my brother suggests, remind me
of a guy we know named Clarke
Bachelor who works for PAA In
Miami. He's a bug on hard wood
and is forever praising good old
Dade County Pine" And there by
hangs a tale which now can be told.
In 1949 when / moved to Key
West, Clarke and my brother drove
me and household goods down IN
a hired truck. That night the boys
stayed in the little house back OF
4lO Caroline St, the old slave quar-
ters of the home owned by Jessie

was resident on the ground floor.
