Many of the problems in the
District are common to all coun-
ties. These include proper conser-
walton measures in the fish and
shrimp industry, better roads, and
the encouragement of Tourism. In
addition, Neblett said, Hendry and

Ten-Cent Kite
Solves Problem

A ten-cent toy kite proved to
be the solution to a knotty problem
at the Key West High School
Thursday.
The problem arose when the flag
there became stuck half way down
the pole. 1t defied all efforts to
free it and school officials called
steeple-jack w. H. Bob" Rob-
erts, 204 Simonton Street, in to
see what he could do about the
situation.
Roberts surveyed the situation,
purchased the kite and flew it
over the pole. He then artfully
managed to get the kite string
tangled up in the flag and pulled
it to the ground within five min
utes.
Roberts said that he has freed
several other flags in this same
fashion.

Cll9Crashes
In Maryland

ANNAPOLIS, Md. Up - Twisted
pieces of wreckage and parachute
draped bodies today Uttered a
nearby cornfield where a big Air

night, killing all IS aboard.

area just off Maryland Route and
exploded at or shortly before the
crash, scattering its victims over
several acres of the rain-Soaked
farm.
A spokesman at the airbase said
IL passengers and six crewmen
were aboard when the ship took
off at 1912 pm. A watch found at
the scene had stopped at 1929.
The Boiling Public Information

today before identities of the VIC
tins were made known. First
there was the grim task Of identify

longing to the 774th Troop Carrier
Squadron based at Ardmore, Okla,

Air Force Base, Ala, to Mitchell
Field, n. Y.

a sleeve bearing the chevrons of
a Marine corporal.
