SCOUT NEWS
TROOP NO. 7 AT CAMP Thirty boys from Troop 7 went camping Friday after school at the Boy Scout Camp at Snapper Creek. We left the Scout cabin on bicycle at 4:15 and arrived on the camp site at approximately 6 o'clock. Beds were prepred and supper was cooked. There was a swell council fire Friday night in which there were skits and patrol yells put on by patrols and troop leaders. We also had visitors at the council fire from a new troop. Saturday morning everybody was up before daybreak except Mr. Corley, our scoutmaster, was sick. (I believe it was "Two-Bits" McWhorter's cooking the night before that made Mr. Corley sick.) Mr. Mueller, one of our active committeemen, stayed in bed also. He said it was too cold to get up. Tests were passed after breakfast. There was a swim period and then lunch was cooked and eaten. After lunch there were some very good games played in the tall grass in back of the Scout Camp. Camp was broken at 4 o'clock. JOHN PEACOCK-Scribe

New Horses Stabled At Tropical Park
The arrival from New Orleans of the Millsdale Stable thoroughbreds and those of Mrs. A. Pelleteri increased Tropical Park's equine colony to exactly 925 head, according to the figures of track superintendent Henry Collins. With some scheduled to move over from Hialeah Park at the end of the week he estimated the total would be fully, 1,000 on the grounds when the Spring session of 29 days swings under way next Monday. These, with those still remaining at Hialeah Park, should provide the best sport in the track's history. Never before has the racing season in Greater Miami extended so late but hotel reservations in the town and on the Beach say the crowds should hang on longer than at any previous time in the history of America's playground. The Millsdale-Pelleteri combination is in second place this winter at the Fair Grounds in the Crescent City than any other, having 26-all, a total of 52 races, to top the winning list in this respect. They shipped well though the same could not be said for Tony Pelleteri, who detrained with a severe cold. There were eleven in the lot which trainer Willie Booth unloaded at the sidings grounds, a string which included the stake winning Bull Reigh and Tanteoine. The best named, long absent from competition, was able enough to be second to Porter's Cap in the Santa Anita Derby, while in front of that major event he whipped Charles Howard's colt in the San Felipe Stakes. Zacharias, a rapid going son of Zacawcista and a two time juvenile stake winner, is another who has long been absent from competition. However, both are reported close to top form and due for early action at Tropical Park. Kansas, Silver Grail and Lou-p-Garou, all well known runners, were in the shipment, which also included Sunny Morn, Grey Dream and Thin Skin, a recent purchase out of Alfred Vanderbilt's sale. Barnertopics, a 3-year-old, is the only matured horse yet to be seen under colors, Victory Drive, a Pompey youngster, and Boston-fly, a 2-year-old Bostonian filly, completed the lot. The eleven were selected as the cream of the extensive string at New Orleans under Pelleteri's management. This means they are ready for action on Tropical Park opportunities.

Navy Offers Training as Plane Pilots
Guy F. Hull, Navy Recruiting Officer, announces that qualified young men from 19 to 27 with high school diplomas, who are American citizens and have been employed at least 6 months in a capable position, may now be enlisted for Flight Training which will eventually lead to a Commission as Ensign in the Naval Reserve. Chief Hull states that the Navy is establishing four training schools in various sections of the United States for the purpose of training 20,000 to 30,000 young men each year for Pilots. These schools will be located in various Universities and the services of Bernie Bierman and other famous physical instructors have been secured to direct the training. These training centers will give students intensive physical training for three months and a moderate amount of mental training. At the completion of this course students will be fully prepared to enter active Navy Flight Training. Chief Hull said the Navy will soon be turning out 2,500 pilots per month from these schools.

'Fifteen's' Next Is Faber Play
"The Miracle of Spring", which will have its world premiere Wednesday evening, March 11th, at the Theatre of the Fifteen, is the latest play by Charles H. Faber, who has provided the Fifteen with three successful plays all box office-draws during the past two years. Faber's comedy, "Give My Regards to Broadway", still holds the record for the longest-run legitimate attraction ever to play in Miami. "The Miracle of Spring" reveals the emotional difficulties that beset Franz Loewenthal, a world-famous European writer, and Elsa, his devoted wife, as they face a new life in this country. They find themselves guests of the Conways, a wealthy American family, whose confused lives are further complicated by the presence of the distinguished strangers. Julia Courtland, married to a man she does not love, sees in Franz all that she reveres. When her attraction to him threatens to endanger the happiness of her husband and daughter, as well as the future of her brother-in-law, himself a writer, she discovers that she must flee with Else before she can have her own way in everything. Mary Greene is featured as Elsa, and Frank Rollinger as Franz. Barbara Parmley plays Julia, James Grosvenor, husband, and Janet Cole their daughter. Willard Thompson plays the brother-in-law, and Vaughn Margerly, the daughter's finance. Robroy Farquhar completes the cast. "The Miracle of Spring" is the third Faber play to feature Mary Greene in the leading role. In 1940 she appeared in "Home of the Brave", and last year she created the role of the brilliant actress in "The Lady Breaks a Lance". The new play, under the direction of Hale McKeen, will continue at the Theatre of the Fifteen through Sunday, March 15th, with the usual Sunday matinee. The setting has been disigned and executed by Edward Sheffield.
