R. A. F. Fliers—

Local Vote—

(Continued from Page One) of Miami territory in addition to the parts of Coral Gables lying within them. Since from fifteen to twenty other schools, besides the schools of Coral Gables, lie in the two districts and are supported in part by Coral Gables taxes, there is a feeling that our schools might be better supported if there were no diversion of Coral Gables taxes outside of the Gables schools. If the investigation now in progress shows that the district can support its own educational system, a redistricting will be asked of the school board, which would make into one school district that part of District Two which lies in Coral Gables, together with all of District Five. While both the Coral Gables Elementary School and Ponce de Leon High School are in need of improvements, it is in Ponce that the redistricting plan's authors are most interested. Ponce de Leon is in District Five, a section more sparsely populated than neighboring school districts, and therefore is unable to get necessary school board funds for much-needed new buildings and repairs. Under the new set-up, Ponce would be in the same district with the rest of Coral Gables, and could then share in any improvement funds voted by the Gables section.

Thomas Mayes—

(Continued from Page One) a partnership for the practice of law, with offices in the Graham Building, Coral Gables. Since the organization of this firm, Judge Mayes has practiced both in Miami and in Coral Gables. Judge Mayes married Bernice Read of Bloomington, Illinois. In 1931 they established their home in Coral Gables, and have lived here since that time. He has been a home owner in Coral Gables since 1932 and now lives at 637 Minorca Avenue, where he has resided since 1937. He is the father of two children—Thomas C. Mayes, jr., eight years of age and Marilyn, four years of age. On April 20, 1938 he was appointed Judge of the Municipal Court of Coral Gables and has held that position since that time. He is a member of the following organizations: Phi Gamma Delta Social Fraternity; Sigma Delta Kappa Legal Fraternity; Dade County Bar Association; Florida State Bar Association; Coral Gables Lodge No. 236, F. and A. M; Coral Gables Post No. 98 of the American Legion; Young Democratic Club of Florida; Coral Gables Chamber of Commerce; He is a director in the Coral Gables Kiwanis Club and was chairman of the recent Water Show and Style Show staged at the Biltmore Pools, by the Coral Gables Kiwanis Club, in co-operation with the Coral Gables merchants, for the benefit of the Under-privileged Children. He is a member of the Coral Gables Methodist Church where he is on the Board of Stewards. Judge Mayes, in announcing his candidacy, stated that the business men and women of Coral Gables should have more representation on the Commission, and as a Lawyer, maintaining an office in Coral Gables he makes his plea for election.

Jaycee Ball—

(Continued from Page One) Old-time movies with appropriate musical accompaniment, Nineties costumes, carnival booths and other attractions are expected to draw a banner crowd this year.

Proceeds of the Ball and Carnival will go to the local Boy Scout Troop thirty and to the Athletic Department of Ponce de Leon High School.

N. E. A. Visit—

(Continued from Page One) of the granting of the city's charter.

Newspaper mats of the Country Club, showing the group in the patio, have been mailed to all of the papers by the city's publicity department, and will be used by thirty-three large newspapers throughout the country, together with an account of the editors' visit here.

Clipper Crowd—

(Continued from Grove Page) other business trip to South America. During his three weeks away from Miami Mr. Critchley plans to fly down the east coast route to Buenos Aires, taking "the local"; he plans to return "express", stopping only at such places as Port of Spain and San Juan. Shop Superintendent George Breaux, became a very proud grandfather on April 24th, when the stork dropped a great big bundle (9 lb., 5 1/2 oz.) at the home of Mrs. J. J. Hoy, 2621 S. W. 26th Lane. The bundle turned-out to be a young lady, Miss Colleen Hoy, who boasts, among other things, a very heavy head of hair—rather unusual for a new-born babe. George, jr. of the Division Engineer's office, rather likes being "uncle" to such a pretty little miss. Operations Engineer F. H. Hankins, Jr. is in New York conferring with Chief Engineer A. A. Priester. Mr. Hankins will be away several weeks. G. M. Reynolds, formerly a first-class mechanic in the Fabric Shop, is now Safety Supervisor.

Saturday, at the chapel, Fort Myer and was solemnized by the post chaplain, Ivan Bennett. For her wedding Mrs. Randell was lovely in white mousseline de sole, made with V shaped neckline and three quarter length sleeves. Wide bands of chantilly lace marked the bodice, sleeves and bouffant floor length skirt. Her fingertip length tulle veil was in head dress fashion and she carried a patriotic bouquet of white lilies, red and white carnations and blue cornflowers. Mrs. John Biggerstaff of Long Island, matron of honor and Miss Louise Boatwright, maid of honor, wore gowns fashioned alike of matching chiffon in shades of hyacinth blue and carried bouquets of purple lilacs and lillies of the valley. Capt. John Vincent Hinkel of New York was best man for Capt. Randell. A reception followed the ceremony at the Army-Navy Club in Washington. Mrs. Crandon wore Turquoise crepe and matching flower turban. Mrs. Randell was graduated from Ashley Hall, Charleston, S. C., attended Converse College, Spartanburg, S. C., and Miss Katherine Gibbs School in New York. Captain Randell is a graduate of George Preparatory School in Pennsylvania, Princeton University, American Institute of Banking, New York City and did graduate work in Paris.

Mrs. Hone Recommended for State Defense

Mrs. John Hone, who has been in charge of Red Cross production for Coral Gables will soon relinquish that position because she has been recommended by Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt for a position in the Women's Defense Program. Mrs. Hone doesn't know when she will be leaving Coral Gables for her new position or where she will be placed, but she is very anxious to be stationed in either New York or Washington, as she has had much experience in Red Cross work in those two cities.
