1.-The No. / girl is neither Miss
Monroe nor even blond. Oh, no!
The winner and new champ is
Ava Gardner. This dramatic
intelligence is vouchsafed the
world today by Boxoff1ce maya
zine. Every year it conducts a
poll among newspaper and maya
zine film editors. Living in vote
less Washington this department
does not participate in Boxoffice's
election. Not that it couldn't,
second -clasS citizenship not being
involved in this case. 1t is just
that if it cannot vote for Presi-
dent, this department is not
going to vote for Miss Gardner.
If we cannot have the vote, we
at least can have our pride.
4 X
Miss Gardner, to get back to
her impressive victory, represents
quite a change in the taste of the
Boxoffice electorate. AS we re-
member (which quite possibly
is ACCOMMODATIONS Day was
last years favorite. Apparently
no body polite assumed more
aggressively that it was time for
a change.
Miss Day is freckled and sun
beamy, Miss Gardner dark and
smouldering. A national cleo
ton that could produce ansequiv-
alenE change of heart On the
part Of the voters would be one
to worry about. Not this one.
There is no accounting for a
taste in girls, from girl to girl.
Never has been since Adam wa
vered between Eve and Lillith
back in the garden of Eden.
Before Miss Day, June AllySon
used to be the voters girl in this
poll but this years ballot count
shows the type in almost total
eclipse. Behind Miss Gardner
come two others whose qualif1ca-
tons for leadership. or what
ever, are almost identical. I'M
mediate runner-up is (no, you're
wrong AGAIN. Susan Hayward.
Miss Monroe is in third place.
The ones who can face the
world with a shining nose and
sunny smile have to wait until
fourth place. From here on,
however, they dig in and fight
a successful holding operation
through, in that order, Jane
Wyman, Esther Williams. Miss

this dog racing business got its
start when farmers in Kansas,
Oklahoma and Nebraska import
ed greyhounds (the ownership OF
which was a mark of distinction
in the days of Cleopatra) to com
bat huge jackrabbits who preyed
on their crops. The hare, incl
dentally, is natural enemy OF
the greyhound.
Then, the practice of "coursing
was instituted in which two grey
hounds were loosed with rabbit
within an enclosure. When they
managed to make the rabbit veer
from his course as they chased
him, they were given points,
Apertures were provided in the
enclosure so that the rabbit could
escape.
Dog racing in England is one
of their major sports with over
$50 tracks dotting the landscape
Crowds of 10000 are not unusual
there at Wimbledon Stadium.
The sport started in this coun-
try in 1925 in Emeryville, Cali
fornia and has since steam
rollered to where it is now
legalized in seven states.
Tonight, it will be Spittin'

Seek To Regain
Winning Ways In
Battle With Top
Kentucky Fire

The Key West High
School cage squad will face
a stiff test tonight when they
tackle the Kentucky Military
Institute five on the high
school hardwood in an effort
to jump back into the win
column after absorbing a
pair of hardfought defeats
at the hands of Pompano
last weekend.
The Kentuckians, who
hold wins over such teams as
Orlando and st. Petersburg
will loom as distinct favor
ties, although over the years,
Key West has managed to
hold them to a tie in the
series. In the last meeting be-
tween the two clubs in 1851,
when the Conchs had one of
their all-time great cage
MISUNDERSTANDING the
services of Jim Baker and
Bobby Cooper, the Conchs
gained a win by a one point
margin.
But the Kentuckians, in the
tradition of cage squads from
that state have lot of tall bas-
ketball talent. They have been
facing only the larger high
school and junior college fives in
play this year.
However, the Conchs will be
in top shape for the encounter.
In losing two to the Pompano
Beanpickers last week, the Key
Westers lost not one whit of
prestige-both of the games were
thrillers which could have gone
either way. The Beanpickers,
who have now won eleven
straight, were unanimous in their
opinion that the Conchs were
the toughest quintet they have
faced this season. Three of the
four Key West defeats have been
at the hands of that team.
Coach Win Jones will rely on
Glynn Archer and Stu Logun,
who have supplied most of the
scoring punch for the locals
while Julio Henriquez who has
been feeding the ball well,
should see plenty of action. The
work of Jim Solomon under the
blackboard is expected to be a
strong factor against the tall
Kentucky aggregation.
Game time is 800 p. m. Tomor-
row night the Conchs will GO
back at it with another i'm
portant tilt with Coral Gables
the largest high school in the
Miami area.

On the Air
With Old Car Radio AeriuIs,
Sam Brings TV to Crawford
By Horry Macarthur

Television has long been a
commonplace around these parts.
There are children starting to
school who can't remember when
there wasn't a TV set in the liv-
ing room. You have to pause
and think about it before there
is any magic in that box which
brings you a picture Of some
thing happening 5000 miles
away at the flick of a knob. Why,
in some places the pictures come
right through the walls; you
don't even have to open the
window.
There are other areas where
people are not so accustomed to
television that they take it for
granted. TV is landing all over
the country with its usual i'm
pact, startling the daylights out
of those encountering its wonder
for the first time.
Out in Crawford, Nebr., a man
turned on a television set the
other day and became famous
enough to make the local paper.
To prove it. we have the clip
ping from the weekly Crawford
Tribune, forwarded by WGAY'S
Ernie Tannen. It must be hap
pening in cities, towns and ham
let's all across the land, just as
reported in theN Tribune.
"Television has come to Craw-
ford with Sam Schmidt claiming
the honors Of being the first to
pick up the pictures, reports the
Tribune.
Sam rigged up two old car
radio aerials as antenna, stuck
it on the chimney on top of the
store, borrowed a booster and
lead-in cable from Kermit
BraShear and settled back to
enjoy this newest medium Of
entertainment on his television.
"The set was receiving for
about three hours last Saturday
afternoon with very Spotty re-
ception, but most of the time
the pictures were clear and
