by HELEN REYNOLDS There are two ways of keeping cool these days, swim in the Venetian Pools or skate on the smooth ice of the Ice Palace. We neither swim nor skate, but as a spectator Sunday at both places, we found that it cost nothing at the pool to watch those happy swimmers (with plenty of comfortable chairs in which to do the watching) and but a nominal sum at the ice rink to sit in practically a "refrigerator" to be entertained. We also learned that devotees of one sport, usually turn to the other and excel. Take little Joan Scofield, daughter of Mrs. Constance Scofield, 215 Avenue Calabria, for instance. Joan is a number one swimmer at the pool and attends every day. Just 12, Russ Ellington, manager of the pool, predicts great things for her if she works. She has won prizes for her diving-dives from the 18-foot plank, and is fearless. Joan used to be a skater, in fact, she opened the Shriner's Ice Carnival last season with her little bag of ice tricks. Then, one day, while trying to do the "Axel-Paulson," a difficult figure figure, she fell and hurt her back. No skating for Joan after that. Now she swims and has visions of aquatic honors yet to come. On the other hand, take Mrs. Ray Lipe of 818 Avenue Majorca. She and her husband are ardent skaters, yet as a young girl, Mrs. Lipe was a regular swimmer at the Venetian Pool. Mr. and Mrs. Lipe do some neat little pa-de-deux on the ice, glide beautifully together, and, come the nineteenth of this month, when the Miami Ice Cavalcade opens for five days' run, the Lipes will be featured skaters. Also in the show are Mrs. Frank Morrow, Mrs. A. S. Coffey of the Gables, and Marsha Goodman, just seven, a tiny skating star, who will do her pirouettes in a brief costume of gold. On Vacation—Mr. and Mrs. Homer Frazier of 650 University Drive are leaving today for a month's visit in Ohio and Michigan. They will visit Mr. Frazier's brother at Winter Park enroute. During their absence, their son and daughter-in-law, the junior Homer Fraziers, will occupy their home after just having finished a week's vacation at McFadden-Deauville, Miami Beach ... Mrs. George R. E. Williams of Coral Gables, who has been living on Venetian Island for the past year, has gone to Oak Park, Ill., for a visit. Enthusiastic Coral Gables visitors this week were Mr. and Mrs. Ray Gale. The Gales formerly lived here and Mrs. Gale (Ruth) was a prominent member of the Coral Gables Junior Woman's Club. Mr. Gale owned a china and gift shop on Lincoln Road, Miami Beach and was a member of the Coral Gables Post No. 98, American Legion. The Gales now travel the United States as representatives of a California concern, making an exclusive modern china, using only the work of artists, Rockwell Kent and Don Blanding. The Gales, while here, negotiated an order for 1,000 plates for Burdine's. These souvenir plates will bear in color the historic wonders plus flora and fauna of Florida. A doll-bride that looks not unlike the honor guest herself will grace the luncheon table today at Mrs. Harold F. Ward's party and shower for Patricia Semple, bride-elect of Dr. James F. Lyons. The little centerpiece bride stands on a revolving mirror. Broad, white satin streamers tied at intervals with tiny bouquets of valley lilies will be hung from a large bell underneath the chandelier. Mrs. Ward will entertain about 15 guests ... Miss Winifred Wood entertained 25 guests yesterday at the Country Club of Coral Gables, at dessert bridge and linen shower for Miss Peggy Tallman, whose engagement to Reginald F. Palmer 2d, was announced recently. Both the hostess and the honor guest were Kappas at the University of Miami. Miss Tallman was graduated from the University of Kentucky. Captain and Mrs. E. B. Wharton have returned to their home, 533 Avenue Majorca, after spending most of the summer in Richmond and Sandston, Va. They were the guests of Mrs. Wharton's brother, Major Davis, of Fort Monroe, and Commander and Mrs. D. A. Sandquist, former Gableites, at the Naval Air Station in Norfolk. They also spent about a month in Texas, where they were called on account of the serious and subsequent fatal illness of Mrs. Wharton's other brother, H. A. Davis, of Houston. Postcards from Dr. and Mrs. Henry S. West, who have been vacationing in Virginia, say that they will be traveling from now until they return in time for the reopening of the University ... from Miss Helen Hails and her sister, Miss Rebecca Hails, owners of the Exmoor School, from Hendersonville, N. C. ... from Mrs. R. T. Ricketts and "Diddy" from New Castle, Ky.

SPECIAL NOTICE TO LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE USERS

Never before in history have our long distance switchboards been so busy. Long distance calls this year have already far exceeded 1940's record-breaking average, and the volume grows greater every day. Activities with vital defense orders and booming Army and Navy posts are relying heavily on long distance lines. In addition, calls from the general public have increased by leaps and bounds. Despite our "all-out" efforts to meet these rapidly expanding demands, our facilities are at times operated at near capacity. Occasional delays may be expected on some long distance calls. "Held-the-line, please" service is not always possible. To relieve the situation we are engaged in an expansion program costing millions of dollars. Many thousands of miles of new long distance circuits have been placed in operation this year, and more are on the way. Additions to many switchboards have been installed. Others are being put up as fast as they can be secured and our men can place them in operation. But manufacture and installation of telephone equipment takes time, and defense priorities are making it increasingly difficult to secure essential materials. Long distance telephone users can do their part in this present emergency by avoiding as much as possible placing calls during the peak long distance hours of 9 to 11 a.m. and 7 to 8:30 p.m. The understanding and cooperation of those we serve will be most helpful and will be genuinely appreciated.
