Navy Proves
It Takes Care
OF Its Own

The U. S. Navy in Key West
takes care of its own, especially
in the submarine branch with CO.
operation from other activities.
This point can be stressed with
the following story.
John Adamson, torpedoesmate
second class, attached to the SUBJ
marine Picuda, unit of submarine
Squadron IL, was faced with the
problem of being in court for
divorce proceedings and also be-
ing on board his, boat which was
sailing for an extended operation.
His commanding officer, 1t.
Comdr. T. w. Swain and executive
officer 1t. F. F. Clifford after
hearing Adamson's problem, made
several phone calls and came up
with the answer.
At am. Friday morning,
Adamson appeared with his at
torney, J. Y. Porter, in court at
the Monroe County Courthouse.
Then at 10 o'clock, 1t. ]. M.
Snyder, captain of the submarine
tt, picked him up in a Navy
vehicle, and took him to Sea-
plane base.
Upon Adamson's arrival at HS-1
Operations, he was checked out
on helicopter passenger prodced-
ures. 1t. r. J. Thomas, the heel
icoptor pilot took over from 1t.
Snyder and flew Adamson to
Bahia Honda, the rendezous point
previously selected by the Picuda
and HS-I.

Is Engineers
Club Speaker

Cdr. J. C. Luppens, USN, Pub
lie Works Officer, Of the U. S.
Naval Base, Key West, Florida,
will be the principal speaker at
the next meeting Of the Key West
Engineers Club, scheduled for
Wednesday, September 8, at 8
pm. at the Wesley House, 100
Varela Street.
Luppens, whose duties include
supervision over the operation of
the Navy Aqueduct Line, from
Florida Cit yto Key West, will
describe the many engineering
innovations instituted in the last
two years to substantially increase
the water flow to the Keys and
this island city.
People In Key West remember
low water pressures which caus-
ed stores to shut off their air
conditioners and tourists to shun
the city. People in second story
homes, many even on ground
level houses, were forced to for
get baths, or wait minutes for a
tiny trickle to fill bathtubs. Show
ers were almost all imperative,
unless booster pumps were provid-
ed.
Believing that many ron-mem-
bers will be interested in learning
how the Navy, overcame this SER
ious situation, the club is issuing
an invitation to members of civic
organizations, professional and
business people to attend.

In today's deal Mr.. Muzzy felt
a glow of satisfaction and opti-
mism. He saw he had seven tricks
outside of diamonds and that if
the enemy let him win the first
two rounds of diamonds his con-
tract would be made.
Accordingly he won the OPEN
ing lead of the queen of spades
with the ace and laid down the
10 Of diamonds. Mrs. Keen held
off, as expected. Another dia-
mond was led and this time, to
Mr.. Muzzy's CONSERVATION, Mrs.
Keen promptly won with the ace,
After that there was no chance
for nine tricks.
1--WE been stabbed" MIR. Muz-
zy cried. what bad luck that
you had only two diamonds.
Otherwise you would have laid
off a second time, like you did
on the last hand"
But I held three diamonds"
said Mrs. Keen as she showed
Mr.. Muzzy her third card in that
suit.
1t was useless to explain to Mr..
Muzzy that the decision to win.
specifically, the second diamond
trick was not a blind stab in
the dark but a scientific play
based on Mr.. Masters handling
of his diamonds.
On the first diamond lead Mr..
Masters had played the deuce.
On the second lead he had
played the six. This sequence of
playing low and then high indi-
Gated that he had an uneven
number of diamonds.
Since he couldn't have start
ed with one or five, he must
have started with exactly three
and therefore Mr.. Muzzy had
two. So Mrs Keen knew it was
not only unnecessary to hold up
her ace of diamonds twice to
cut communications with dunn
my; it was also highly danger
Gus, as Mr.. Muzzy probably
needed just two diamond tricks
for his game.

that it is the time Of year when

Fumous Fables
By E. E. Edqor

ADVERTISING Poet
James Whitcomb Riley was
extremely fond of dogs, and
the animals reciprocated.
Wherever he went, there was
sure to be a dog at his heels.
One morning, when he
was employed by an Indian
apolis newspaper, Riley came
upon a friendly terrier. He
induced the animal to fol-
low him to the Office. He
gave the dog a bone and it
curled UP cozily at his feet.
That afternoon, the owner
Of the animal came into the
newspaper Office to place an
ad Offering a reward for the
dogs return. When he saw
the terrier at Riley's feet, he
flew into a rage, and adj
vanced on the poet threaten
ingly.
What have you got to say
about this?" he demanded
angrily.
Riley. covered with con-
fusion, turned the terrier
over to its master.

he quipped weakly. "Y-you

Il Disagree With What
You Say, But !"

Three hundred fifty words or less,
eh? Well, here goes
I, for one, see nothing wrong with
the letter in the Peoples Voice of May
18th whereas" the Marias Farmers
Union Local of Glacier County saw fit
to complain about certain letters pub
lished in the Voice by two gentlemen;
namely LoWndes Maury, LaVerne Ham
ilton, "and some others. After all,
the petitioners own the paper. No OBJ
lection could be more valid.
But 1 certainly question the motives
that prompted those complaints. All
the "whereases' and "therefores" and
other gobbledegook of the legal chat
terbugs couldn't suppress the fact that
the ostensible reasons for the COM
plants in this letter were purely phOny
in substance and character. The truth
of the matter is that these people are
not inclined to tolerate criticism. They
can't take it.
Here is a group that, far from think
ing in terms of Voltaire's Il disagree
with what you say, but defend to the
death your right to say it,, they would
probably kick your teeth in if you
even looked like you wanted to say it..
AS for the references to the letters
of Mr. Hamilton and Mr.. Maury, and
others, 1 would be more than flattered
if by chance the Others" included my
self. More often than not think these
gentlemen know what they are talk
ing about.
| have also taken pleasure in reading
the letters of Mr.. E. j. Parkinson. AL
though he is conservative and some
times reactionary in his opinions, and
L hardly agree with him on anything;
| admire his intelligence his moral
courage, and his ability to absorb the
punishment of disagreement that has
usually been his lot in the columns of
the Voice. The good people of the
Marias Local of the Farmers Union of
Glacier County seem to be seriously
lacking in these essential qualities.
All of which reminds me of an old
French proverb: People see in things
only what they look for, and look for
only what is already in the mind. =
