The Clipper Crowd NEWS OF THE ACTIVITIES OF THE PERSONNEL OF PAN-AMERICAN AIRWAYS ★ By Nancy Humphreys

Following their return from a honeymoon in Cuba, Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Stoddard are making their home at 802 South Greenway Drive, Coral Gables. Mrs. Stoddard is the former Mrs. Helen Bucher, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Homer J. Rhode, of Coral Gables. She is a graduate of Smith College. Mr. Stoddard, a traffic representative in Pan American's downtown ticket office, was graduated from New York University. The young couple were married in Ft. Lauderdale April 25th. Except for a brief stay in Santiago de Cuba, most of the four-week honeymoon was spent in Havana, where they were guests at the Nacional Hotel. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence, 3206 Crystal Court, Coconut Grove, received a vociferous Mother's Day greeting last Sunday morning with the arrival of Peter Glen Lawrence at St. Francis Hospital. Young Peter weighed 6 lb., 10 oz., at birth. Papa Lawrence is a traffic representative in the City Traffic Office. Mr. and Mrs. Bill Coleman (Purchasing) made a flying trip to Jacksonville last weekend to spend Mother's Day with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. C. Coleman. That's real devotion. Frank Micka has dubbed his newly-purchased 17-foot sailboat, the "Bo-Bo". Mr. Micka says his boat is of the "New Haven sharpie" class—which is something new to me. At any rate, it has just a mainsail, no cabin. Michael Iko, formerly a crew chief of Dinner Key, has been called to active duty in the Naval Reserves. Mr. Iho holds the rate of Chief Machinist Mate. Mrs. Helen Russell McNichol, of Purchasing, who has been critically ill for the past three weeks, is now able to sit up and chat with her friends. She is convalescing at the home of her mother, Mrs. G. E. Russell, at 1668 S. W. 11th Street. Rumor has it that whenever the new secretary in the Engine Overhaul Shop walks out into the hangars all the boys drop their tools and gape. She must be a very gorgeous creature. Dexter I. Spence 2842 West Trade Avenue, Coconut Grove, is now Sgt. Spence! And... Along about May 22nd he will be learning the manual of arms at Camp Blanding. Robert L. Taylor and James T. Clark of Maintenance have also been drafted. George F. Ivey Jr., 2758 Day Avenue, Coconut Grove, has been called to duty in the Naval Reserves. He expects to be stationed in Norfolk. Now with the C.A.A. in Washington is P. J. Doan former maintenance for Pan American in Miami. Captain William Masland, 3613 Bay View Road, Coconut Grove, has been transferred to the Atlantic Division, effective June first—which doesn't give Mrs. Masland long to pack up her household goods and family, including four-weeks old Susan. In the Men's Tennis Tournament one match has been played in the semi-finals: Terrell-Brito, 6-3, 6-3. In the semi-finals in the Girl's Tennis Tournament, Tonia defeated Edwards (default); Jean Beveridge defeated Jadronja (default); Peggy Beveridge defeated Turner; Heffernan defeated Small. Colonel D. Chapman, 2855 Naomi Street, Coconut Grove announces that he, too, has been called into the Naval Reserve. Fletcher Bennett, 4016 La Prado Boulevard, Coconut Grove, left by plane Sunday morning to join the congregation of Pan American Personnel in Washington. "A perfect vacation"—to put it briefly—is Bob Flipse's description of his trip to Mexico and Cuba. Mr. Flipse's traveling companions were Mr. and Mrs. Collie Freeman and Walter Freeman. The party flew to Mexico, via Brownsville, where they stopped at the Casa Camera. This magnificent old home was formerly the private residence of the Camera family—until the Mexican government confiscated their land to return it to the peons. Now the Camera family live in the basement of their mansion and rent out rooms. The Freemans and Mr. Flipse found the Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza exceedingly interesting. The hotel at Chichen Itza, the Mayaland Lodge, follows the pattern of the ancient Mayan huts—but with modern conveniences. At Viotda Central, near Ciega de Avila, Cuba, the party were the guests of the J. Dudley Stevensons for several days. On the four hundred mile trip from Violeta to Havana they did everything but fly. First they rode on a gas train, then a steam train, and finally a streamlined bus. After that ride, a Clipper back to Miami was really a delight! The Seventh Annual Florida Tomato Festival at Ruskin opened Tuesday of this week and will continue through the remainder of the week. The anbattle in which two teams using over-ripe tomatoes battle to a gory finish, will be the feature attraction.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE LESSON-SERMON

• "Mortals and Immortals" is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon which will be read in Churches of Christ, Scientist, throughout the world on Sunday, May 18. The Golden Text is: "For sake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding" (Proverbs 9:6). Among the citations which comprise the Lesson-Sermon is the following from the Bible: "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ;" (Rom. 8:14, 16, 17). The Lesson-Sermon also includes the following passage from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy: "Immortal man was and is God's image or idea, even the infinite expression of infinite Mind, and immortal man is coexistent and coeternal with that Mind. He has been forever in the eternal Mind, God; but infinite Mind can never be in man, but is reflected by man" (p. 336:9-14).

Coconut Grove News By Susan Howe Clark PHONE 4-1634—4-3132

CONSIDERABLE MOMENTUM MARKS THE MOVEMENT TOWARD ESTABLISHING A RED CROSS WORKING UNIT IN COCONUT GROVE, following the organization meeting held last week in the Housekeepers Club. Mrs. Lida B. White, Housekeeper Club welfare chairman, conceived the idea of all women's organizations in the Grove coordinating their efforts toward making greater achievement in this humanitarian work... and under her guidance women from nearly a dozen groups are planning to work together on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays in the "all-out" aid to Great Britain. Meetings will be in the Housekeepers Club between the hours of 9 and 5 and all members of Grove women's organizations are urged to join in the work. Skilled Red Cross workers will be at the clubhouse to answer all queries regarding the work. Twelve years ago Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Anderson moved their appurtenances and hereditaments to the village Coconut Grove and set themselves up in simple manne: in the chicken feed business... "but feed stores in Mian in 1926 from Danville, Va. They're observing their 12th anniversary of entering the business here, on Sunday (May 18th), and naturally they are proud of their achieve ment and growth. They handle a line of Purina Chow (feeds), for chickens, pigeons, dogs and cattle. They sell day-old Purina eggs, plant and grass fertilizers and offer a Purina advisory specialist service, which is free to all owners of flocks. This far it is rumor, but quite authentic, that Coconut Grove will have a professional group of legitimate stage players by Fall. It is planned to get rehearsals underway soon, pursuant to announcing a series of plays for next season. Malcolm Holman, popular Grove hairstylist, tells us he is leaving town this week-end, by train and 'plane to spend a vacation of two weeks in New Orleans, Chicago and New York. He plans to run in on some of the Spring Haircuts shows in the east, so we must not be left "to stand on end", (no pun intended), should he introduce any new hairstyles upon his return. Dr. and Mrs. W. H. Watters, (Boston-Miami Clinic), Mary Street, are all packed up to return to their home Boston and by the time you're reading this, the good Watters, associate with his father, and Mrs. Watters and child, left early this week. Miss Marianne Dunlap, nurse, is anticipating a visit with relatives in North Florida and will return to nurse duty here with the doctors early next Fall. Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Ozanne, and their daughter, Dorothy, are moving into the Sullivan residence on Cornelia Drive, this week. They are leasing out their home in south Coconut Grove. Bridge devotees are invited to join in luncheon and cards in the home economics room of the Gables F. P. and Light Company, Tuesday at 12:30. The benefit is sponsored by St. Theresa's chapter of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church Woman's Auxiliary, and is in charge of Mrs. W. W. Sayles and Mrs. John Pomeroy. The announcement this week of the engagement and approaching marriage of Miss Billie Marie Kuykendall, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. J. Delman Kuykendall, Devon Road, to Henry Sturgeon Rothe, Gainesville, creates wide social interest in Coconut Grove and Greater Miami. The marriage is planned for early in June... Miss Kuykendall attended Brenau College and is a member of Phi Kappa Phi at the University of Miami. Her father was recently honored on his 20th anniversary of the Plymouth Congregational pastorship. The bridegroom-elect attended the state University, Gainesville, and is a member of Phi Kappa Tau. First party honoring the bride-elect will be a china shower tomorrow, to be given by Mrs. H. B. Fultz, Micanopy Avenue, and Mrs. Frank Coleman and Mrs. Edward Finch, have issued invitations to a large number of her friends to attend a party next Thursday at Treasure Trove, Bayshore Drive estate of E. C. Cole. Mrs. L. M. Stoutenburg, retiring Department of Florida American Legion Auxiliary secretary, is in Tallahassee setting up the state secretarial offices for the new secretary. Mrs. Martha Magruder, who was badly bruised and shaken up in an automobile accident in which Mrs. H. C. Avery and her sister, Mrs. Shannon were killed, is recuperating in Thomasville, Ga., Mr. Magruder returned home from her bedside this week, with word that she would soon be out of the hospital and also with the arrival of their son Albert, who has been taking coast guard examinations in the east during the past 10 days, when he will accompany his mother home by train. A local young man, Marvin Rawls, by name, recently learned that his former boss and pals must think quite a bit of him. Marvin was in Jacksonville but a short time (He'd been called to U. S. Naval Reserve duty), when he lost his pocketbook. That wasn't enough though—his his girl friend gave him another, and somehow it too, disappeared. Marvin had been employed by G. C. Snowden, Jr., four years, and when he learned of the lad's mis fortune, he at once phoned the shop and got some cash for a third pocketbook, all the other men in the office and shop giving their bit toward it. Marvin was delighted of course... and on the card to the fellows wrote that "everything was going along fine, but where all the fellows in his outfit are either homesick or lovesick", he was both. Mrs. John S. Gibbens inducted recently elected officers of the Coconut Grove Elementary School P-T.A., into office, Tuesday night. They were Mrs. C. W. Hamilton, president; Mrs. E. U. Iwerks, 1st vice president; Mrs. J. D. Overstreet, 2nd vice president; Mrs. E. J. Jackson, recording secretary; Mrs. James Brennan, cor. secretary; Miss Sue Maddy, treasurer and Mrs. G. E.

The surprise on the faces of this quartet—Joan Blondell, Roland Young, Eddie (Rochester) Anderson and Carole Landis—is by the eerie mystery in Hal Roach's "Topper Returns" which will show at the Grove Theatre beginning Sunday, May 17th and continue through Tuesday.

Yellow and Blue Flowers at Economics Luncheon Remind Mrs. McLendon of Flag By HELEN REYNOLDS

• When Mrs. Dana McLendon, whose christian name is "Hedveg" saw the yellow and blue flowers, which centered the pretty luncheon table of the home economics class at Ponce de Leon High School Wednesday, she said, it reminded her of the Danish Flag, flag of her ancestors. Mrs. McLendon was a guest of the class, with Mrs. David Beyer, Mrs. Alvie Smith Lindborg, this writer and four senior girls, Janeth Beyer, Patricia Cringle, Mary Gene Lambert and Alice Hausrath. The luncheon table was placed in the living room of the residence, used entirely by the home economics department, for homemaking, sewing and cooking. Place cards were the clever work of Roberta Berg. Real chicken wishbones silvered and tied with yellow ribbon to white cards, they were called "Good Luck" cards. The menu, prepared entirely by the girls in the electric kitchen, consisted of; fresh fruit cup, baked meat loaf, baked potato, Harvard beets, fresh lima beans, fruit salad, ice tea, vanilla custard and brownies, iced in blue and yellow. Four pretty girls wearing starched white bib aprons with their names embroidered on the pocket served. Miss Beyer acted as hostess. We'll never know if a teacher was hiding behind the curtains or under the table to watch the proceedings, but the home economics class certainly deserve great credit for conducting a party, with apparent ease from the first introductions in the living room, to the last farewells—and making their guests feel very much "at home".

CARLOCK HAWK NAMES SUNDAY SERMON TOPIC

• "Conditions of God's Guidance" will be the sermon topic of the Rev. Carlock Hawk at the 11 a. m. Sunday service at the Coral Gables First Methodist Church.

• Florida's citrus growers have received a greater return for their crops in the four years the Citrus Commission has had its advertising program, despite a doubling of the size of the crops, according to Don Ransburg, Florida manager for the advertising firm of Arthur Kudner, Inc., which handled the Citrus Commission account.

29 MILLION! A record never before approached! FORD MOTOR COMPANY

29 MILLION! 29,138,719 A record never before approached! ★WHEN the 29,000,000th Ford rolled recently from the assembly line, an all-time record for the industry was set. 29,000,000 units built by the same management and all bearing one name—a name that has become one of the best-known trade-marks in the world! It is significant that this achievement comes at a time when our country is making a mighty effort to re-arm swiftly. For to further that effort, to help speed it along in any possible way, we have offered the vast facilities of the Rouge Plant and every ounce of our experience. As you read this, a new $21,000,000 Ford airplane engine plant, started only last fall, is nearly completed. A new magnesium alloy plant, one of the few in the country, is already in production on lightweight airplane engine castings. Work is right now under way on a new $18,000,000 plant for mass production of big bomber assemblies. Orders have been filled for military vehicles of several types, including army reconnaissance cars, staff cars and bomb service trucks. In the midst of this activity for National Defense, building the 29 millionth Ford car is simply one part of the day's work. The public has acclaimed the 1941 Ford car as the finest in Ford history. Ford dealers are enjoying their greatest sales and expecting their best year since 1937. It is good to be producing the things America needs, and to be setting records on the way!
