NEWS OF THE ACTIVITIES OF THE PERSONNEL OF PAN-AMERICAN AIRWAYS By Nancy Humphreys For their "good neighbor" work in fostering friendlier relations between the Dominican Republic and the United States, Division Traffic Manager H. C. Dobbs and Division Sales Manager J. A. Zalduondo of Pan American Airways were last Sunday made gentlemen of the order of Juan Pablo Duarte, which is the highest honor the republic can confer. Col. Charles A. McLaughlin, high official of the republic, bestowed the honors at a special ceremony staged in the Dominican Republic building in Miami. Kell Avenue, Juan Pablo Duarte, in whose honor and memory the order was created, is the island's George Washington, who freed the country from Haitian rule in 1844. * * * Mrs. and Mrs. Fred J. Gelhaus are mighty happy to report that their daughter and son-in-law, Betty and Tom Denton, are back in the U. S. A. again. After their Valentine's day wedding the Dentons flew to San Juan, where Tom had been transferred by Pan American. But the lack of living quarters, Tom's attack of malaria, and the thought of the darling little home they owned at 1442 S. W. 20th Street proved just a little too much for the young newlyweds . . . so back they came after four months in the Tropics. And now they are happily at home on Twentieth Street. Incidentally, Tom is a sportsman pilot-has almost a thousand hours in the air to his credit. * * * Through Miami Monday came Captain Harold R. Harris, vice-president of Pan-Grace en route from New York City to Lima, Peru. * * * Miss Margaret Sheehan, secretary to the Division Engineer, has had her fill of bull fights. While in Mexico City she and Miss Frances Manning, of Accounting, attended the arena on a fiesta day. It seems that this time of year the matadores are amateurs (it must be an off season)-and so the fights were gorier than usual. After seeing three bulls massacred, the girls left-and the show wasn't over even then. Some of the Mexicans in the crowd who knew a little English shouted after them, "No like, no like!" And their reply was definitely in the affirmative! But, like everyone else from Pan Am, who has been there, the Misses. Sheehan and Manning thought Mexico City itself a very charming and interesting spot. They report that this ancient capitol reminds them of New York City, with its smartly dressed women and shiny new cars. After a week spent in such an exotic and vivid spot, a sojourn in New England was quiet by comparison. Miss Sheehan visited her grandmother (for whom she was named) in Danbury, Conn., and then drove on to Ontario, Canada. * * * In Coconut Grove for several days short handed was Vice-President George L. Rihl of Pan American Airways, Inc. * * * Express accounting is really short handed this week. Rodney Marson is off to the West Coast with his father; Mrs. Katherine Pritchard is spending a quiet vacation in her Coral Gables home, and the Misses Della Moran and Bertha Edwards are off gallivanting around the countryside. * * * Miss Mozelle Caldwell is turning every week end into a holiday; she's taken a cabana at the Wofford Hotel on the Beach for the summer. * * * Also off to Mexico City for ten days or so go Mr. and Mrs. Tildo Carrero. Another enthusiastic booster of Mexico City is Ben Blackman, of Dinner Key Traffic, who has just returned from what he terms "The Most Delightful Vacation Spot on Earth." (Ben states he was accompanied by the "war department"). In Merida the Blackmans were joined by Mr. and Mrs. Juan Aguirre, who accompanied them to Mexico City. And in some "unmentionable spot" the entire party encountered Emily and Bill Coleman. It was really old home week. * * * Planning to leave today by car for a month in the Golden West are Division Manager and Mrs. Snyder of 809 Coya Way. They will be accompanied by their son, Overton. The Snyders are taking what seems to have become a standard itinerary for Pan Am: Colorado Springs, Yellowstone and the Glacier parks. They expect to be away about four weeks. * * * The numerous friends of the Sudlow and Tunis families will be delighted to hear that Mr. and Mrs. Sylvester Tunis plan to spend their vacation in Coral Gables in August. Mrs. Tunis is the former Betty Sudlow, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry E. Sudlow, old residents of Coral Gables. Miss Elizabeth Tunis, secretary to Pan Am's Division Manager, will also be vacationing at that time and busy entertaining her brother and sister-in-law. * * * At long last Fletcher Bennett of Pan Am's engineering department has returned from his prolonged business trip to Washington in connection with military aero matters. Mrs. Bennett and the little Bennetts are expected home at 4016 La Prado Boulevard, Coconut Grove long about Sunday. * * * Voit Gilmore celebrated the completion of his first year with Pan Am with a temperate little party for his immediate coworkers last Wednesday. * * * Beautiful Lake Louise and Banff, high in the Canadian Rockies, was the vacation choice of Jerry Grossman of Traffic. He and Mrs. Grossman spent nearly a month there. * * * Transferred from San Francisco was Junior Pilot Robert R. Chambers, now settling down at 3475 Royal Road, Coconut Grove. * * * Now a teletype operator and clerk in Communications is Mrs. Frances Yarbrough Freeman.

SCOUT NEWS

Troop No. 38 Last Thursday the Scouts of Troop No. 38 collected aluminum for defense at the request of Mrs. Joe Whitley, the wife of the Mayor. We collected over 150 pieces under the direction of Dennis Kelleher. If you have any old newspapers around the house the Scouts of Troop No. 38 need them to buy camping equipment. If you have any papers telephone 5-2784 or 4-9826 and a Scout will call at your house for the papers. If you are over the age of 12 and interested in scouting we will bee looking for you Thursday night at 7 o'clock at the Coral Gables Methodist Church, where Troop No. 38 meets. We are glad to welcome back from Cuba Mr. Robert Bush, Scoutmaster, and McGregor Smith, Jr., from Tennessee. GORDON CRAIG, JR. Troop Scribe. Troop No. 7 The meeting came to order at 7:30 and troop fell in company street. Opening exercises-Pledge of Allegiance and Oath and Law. The patrols were dismissed for patrol corners, after which the reports were handed in by patrol scribes. Plans were made for a troop camp to take place next week. Also arrangements were made for the troop swimmers to hold a swim practice at the Venetian Pool next Tuesday night in order that they might keep the annual swim meet trophy which they won last year. Last year was the first year that the trophy was ever won by Troop 7. If the troop keeps it this year and wins again next year, the trophy will become troop property. After business was thoroughly discussed, a very fine stunt was given by the Eagle Patrol and everyone enjoyed in an outdoor game, "Capture the Flag." The meeting was dismissed with the circle of friendship and Scout benediction. W. (EGGS) NICHOLS, Jr. Acting Scribe.

Appeal for More Funds For State

An urgent plea was addressed to Washington officials by the Florida State Chamber of Commerce today asking that more money be made available to the PWA to meet the "distressful" public works needs of military areas. Congress on July 1 appriated $150,000,000 for this purpose. "It now appears that Florida's military areas cannot receive more than $5,000,000 of this fund," Harold Colee, executive vice-president of the state chamber, declared, ands of them with families, are "whereas $50,000,000 will be required to meet even the priority needs of the state's counties and municipalities, and school districts." The fund, in which from 18 to 25 states will share, was voted to assist military areas in providing schools, water works, sewers and sanitary facilities, water supply, increased hospital facilities, recreation mechanics, and access roads and streets. "Army and navy establishments, 18 of them, are now present in Florida localities which, for the most part, were sorely pressed by the state's rapid population increase before these defense measures were found necessary," Mr. Colee added. PWA officials are now holding meetings in the state's military areas to determine these needs, many of which were surveyed and certified to Washington from 6 to 8 months ago, especially access highways. "Nearly 100,000 men, thousands of them with families, are stationed in Florida's army and navy posts," continued Mr. Colee. "Moreover, thousands of their relatives are constantly visiting them from nearly every state in the Union. It is apparent that these people will be in Florida for several years, and our city and county officials are keenly aware of the public needs so urgently demanded if health and morale are to be maintained. "State allocations have not yet been made, of the 150 millions, but with so many needs to be met it is obvious that the funds can be made to Florida will be but a drop in the bucket." An important outlet for cotton is seen in the increasing use of industrial uniforms made of cotton, not only by physicians, nurses, restaurant workers, mechanics and store clerks, but also by office workers.

SERMON TOPIC

"Christian Fellowship" will be the topic of the sermon, the Rev. Carlock Hawk has chosen for the 11 o'clock worship Sunday at the Methodist Church. The Rev. Carlock Hawk will leave late Sunday for Lake Junaluska, N. C., where he will join his family at their summer home for the month of August. He will return to occupy the pulpit the first Sunday in September. During August, supply pastors will be announced for each Sunday.

SEMINOLES TO BE GUESTS

Lithe and graceful Seminoles will do an unusual dance in "Moon Over Miami." Against the awe-inspiring setting of the mysterious Everglades, a mythical story of the Seminoles comes to life via music and choreography. In keeping with the picture Mr. Amsden, manager of the Grove Theatre, has invited the Seminoles from Musa Isle to be his guests Sunday, August 3, when the picture will be unreeled here.

Mercerized cotton is named after John Mercer, who discovered that cotton could be made stronger and more lustrous by treating it with caustic soda.
