1986. Great idea. Let's make this happen. was a spring breaker in key West. Great idea from a great commissioner who will be added to the pedestal garden in Mallory square.

April 4, 1982 – Suwa, a male dolphin owned by Little Torch Key resident Betty Brothers and kept on her property, attacked a man after he entered the private lagoon to swim with the creature. Suwa rammed the man six times, causing severe liver lacerations and the rupture of a “major” vein in his stomach.

Also on this date:

1934 – Sam E. Harris was named Key West Postmaster.

1938 – Gene Tunney, heavyweight boxing champion, visited the city from his winter home at Hobe Sound.

1956 – There was low water pressure throughout the Florida Keys as South Florida went through its annual dry period. Some were calling for a freshwater reservoir to be built to supply the islands, but the idea was nixed by the Aqueduct Commission as there was nowhere to build one of adequate size.

1961 – The cable schooner Western Union arrived safely in port at Key West after having been stopped in international water by two armed Cuban gunboats.

1964 – The Flagler Avenue Branch Post Office in Key West was dedicated. Congressman Dante B. Fascell was the main speaker.

1983 – Movie star Gloria Swanson died at the age of 84 in New York City. As an 11-year-old Army dependent, Swanson made her first appearance on the stage at the Odd Fellows Hall in Key West, where she sang “As the World Rolls On.”

1986 – Monroe County Mayor Wilhelmina Harvey put forward a proposal to the Tourist Development Council that a “Truman Days” festival be organized to celebrate President Harry Truman and his ties to the Keys. The celebration would be modeled on the popular Hemingway Days event.
