No Confirmation On
Arming Of Shrimp Boats
MEXICO CITY UP-The U. S.
Embassy says it bas no confirma
tion of reports that North Ameri
can and Cuban shrimp boats have
carried arms while fishing off Mex
ico’s coast.
Published reports have said the
foreign boats were armed, some
with machine guns, and that Mex
ican fishermen havs asked permis
sion to arm themselves as a pro
tective measure.
Charge d’affaires Paul Culbert
son of the U. S. Embassy said he
1"S received no confirmation at all
•->? the reports, and added that the
t North American boats seized
io week off Campeche were cer
<my unarmed.
Meanwhile, the Campeche case
continued to simmer today in the
waka of Culbertson’s conference
with the Mexican minister of for
eign relations on tlie subject.

states that persons seeking
election to the commission will
be divided into five groups
and each candidate, at the time
of his qualification, would bt re

statement which group he wish
m to run in. Apparently, the
groups will not be set up on
the basis of geographical boun
daries and, in effect, candidates
would be able to choose who
they will run against

Mr. Papy today declined to
comment on the proposed amend

statement in which be said that
he will bold a public hearing at
the County Court House for the
consideration of all legislation
which he proposes to introduce at
the April session of the State’s
governing body.

Look at the dead face, known in

is stern. The hair is brushed the
way you always saw him. His
mustache full and nCat. His chin
and jaw as resolute in death as in
life.

about a Siamese is about to come
out. It is a sequel to their first
juvenile “The Proud Cat”
The Lockridges divide their
writing between cats and corpses.
With deft, professional skill, the
couple ean write lightly about the
felines, or melodramatically about
the murdered villains in their my
steries.
. Cats play a very important part
in the Lockridges’ life at their
Ridgefield, Conn. home.
“Our neighbors think we are
mad because we hire a woman to
come in and feed and care for
the cats, while we are away,”
Frances said.
.As cat-experts, however, the
Lockridges are only practicing
what they preach in their cat
guide bodes. Always have a
neighbor, janitor, or friend eome
in and feed the cat. But don’t up
root* him, he’ll mope and all
if you do.
The Lockridge cats have been
immortalized in their books. In
real life their names are Martini,
Gin and Sherry. They are not
noisy as are some Siamese; but
they know their rights and their
owner’s obligations to them.
“When we get borne, the cats
will not speak to us for a while.
They are furious when we leave
them and take it out on us by
ignoring us for a time when we
return,” Dick said.
Though delighted at the suc
cess of the television show “Mr.
and Mrs. North," CBS, Friday’s,
10 p.m. the Lockridges remain
first and foremost book writers.
Dick doe* the writing, con
centrated in the hours between
10 a.m. end 1 p.m.
”1 don't understand those
writers who say they put in a
ton or 12 hour day at it,” said
the ellm, former drama critic.

“But don’t forget all the time
we spend talking and planning the
book and the cnaracters,” Fran
ces said. “We talk at lunch, at
cocktails and whenever we are to
gether about our characters.”
The Lockridges map out their
entire plot, but iet the incidents
in the book grow out of the char
acters. In “Death By Association”
they have a brand new twist moti
vating their murderer, and a fear
haunting their characters, that
though unique in murder myster
ies, is all too pervasive in the
United States of today. Not only
is the mystery engrossing, but it
is timely and for Key Westers who
love their native sights and
sounds, it is heartwarming to see
on the printed page descriptions
of familiar scenes.

reminiscent of the fuss made on
Stalin’s own decade birthdays.
The celebration startled the
Western world and probably a
good portion of tht Communist
world as well. To the West it could
mean but one thing the bright

Stalin’s wing was being prepared
for succession to the crown.
