By HELEN REYNOLDS Mrs. C. Downer Renshaw (Mary Catherine Heffernan) will arrive by plane this week from Flushing, N. Y., for a visit with her parents, Judge and Mrs. David A. Heffernan, 336 Avenue Majorca. The Renshaws, whose marriage was a brilliant event of last August, lived in California for some time before Mr. Renshaw, a Pan American pilot, was transferred to the East. He has been flying planes from LaGuardia Field and plans to join Mrs. Henshaw in about two weeks for a vacation. * * * Colonel William G. Hilliard, Jr., suffered a broken ankle in a fall Monday as he was preparing to pack to return to active duty in the Army. Colonel Hilliard has been ordered to Pennsylvania as commandant of Lafayette College and was trying to retrieve trunks and suitcases from a loft in his garage when the accident occurred. The Hilliards and their pretty daughter, Miss France Hilliard, senior at Ponce de Leon High School, are recent additions to Coral Gables, having bought the residence at 944 Avenue Andres last October for their permanent home. The Colonel will report to his new detail April first. Mrs. Hilliard, France and the two Hilliard cats, Hi Sing, a Siamese (who incidentally celebrated his ninth birthday Friday with "hamburger," cake and 9 candles) and "Mr. Patch" will follow at the close of school. * * * The smiling young man pictured here (A Derby Pilkington Photo) is Albert (Robbie) Stutz, Jr., who will blow out one candle on his birthday cake Monday, for he will reach the ripe age of one year on the 30th. With his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. William F. Stutz, of Chattanooga, Tenn., he is spending the winter with his aunt, Mrs. Theron Ames and Mr. Ames, of 1212 Ave- Sorolla. * * * Mrs. Clarke Young has moved from 1301 Avenue Sorolla to 1725 Country Club Prado . . . Mr. and Mrs. Don Peabody will leave today by motor for their summer home at Black Mountain, N. C. Their son, Prentice Peabody, student at Georgia Tech, will come down to accompany his parents north. * * * The regular meeting of the Coral Gables Music Club, set for April 8, has been postponed due to the state federation meeting of music clubs from April 8 to 11 at Hollywood. The new federated chorus, under the direction of Arturo de Filippi, will make its first appearance at 8:30 tomorrow night at the home of Dr. and Mrs. C. H. Neill, Segovia Circle. Mrs. Neill, as well as many Coral Gables Music Club members, are members of the new chorus. The chorus will also sing at the convention. * * * Civic music members, some 2,000, were delighted to see and hear their recently re-elected president, Charles H. Crandon, at the Dailies Concert Friday night. Mr. Crandon, fully recovered from his recent serious illness, appeared at the intermission and reassured the members that civic music would be continued next year with a bigger, richer program. * * * A week at Miami Beach and a week at Birmingham, Ala., will be included in the honeymoon plans of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Ford Holbrook, who were wed Sunday night at the home of and by Dr. W. Glenn Roberts, of Miami Beach. The bride was the former Nancie Hattery Keith of Birmingham, and with her mother, Mrs. William George Keith of Miami has been spending the season at 123 Avenue Menores, the charming home of Mrs. Carroll S. Daniels. For her wedding the attractive blond bride-elect Mrs. Holbrook chose a white crepe ensemble made with redingote. Her accessories and flowers were white and the small, backu hat was trimmed in red veiling. Mrs. Holbrook is a graduate of Northwestern University and a member of Delta Gamma Sorority. She has been active in the A. A. U. W. and art circles. The bridegroom, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Holbrook of Pittsburgh, where he was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity, is the Chicago representative of Klise Manufacturing Company. * * * Several Coral Gableites were among the 200 guests who called Sunday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Frederick Sheckler, West Palm Beach, to greet Miss Marie Wilmot, bride-elect of Sergeant Robert M. Kenney, son of Mr. and Mrs. O. H. P. Kenney of Sidonia Avenue. Mrs. Sheckler is an aunt of Miss Wilmot and Sunday's tea is one of many planned for the couple. * * * "Orchids" to Captain and Mrs. William S. Doxey of 1234 Country Club Prado for the privilege of a peek at their own rare and somewhat large collection of exotic blooms. Started a few years ago as a hobby by Captain Doxey, a senior Pan American pilot, the Doxey's have acquired not only a rambling greenhouse filled with the orchid plants in every state of culture, but an interesting garden full of Florida fruits and flowers, not forgetting pools and shaded brooks. When you step through the latched gate back of the formal Colonial house, into the Doxey garden, you step into another setting that makes you think of the deep South, of Alabama, ancestral home state of Mrs. Doxey. A long, low gallery running the entire length of the garage, guest house and greenhouse, serves as a play porch for the Doxey's young son, Bill, Jr., and for the six full-grown Maltese identical cats, prize possessions of Mrs. Doxey's. We marveled at the ease [TEXT LOST] which Mrs. Doxey displayed that of feeding a mocking [TEXT LOST]mocker," apple with one hand, while one of the gray [TEXT LOST]elines sat on her shoulder. She admitted it wasn't always that easy, that sometimes it was a scramble to "keep the birds flying."
