Coral Gables Riviera-Times

When Coral Gableites play host on a fishing trip, their guests may expect big results if the recent expedition arranged by MR. and MRS. WILL H. ROGERS, 131 Avenue Calabria, is any criterion. This 1261⁄2 pound white marlin was hooked by D. P. EISELSTEIN of Orlando, while fishing with the Rogers' aboard Capt. Harold Anderson's "Osprey". Mr. and Mrs. Rogers are shown at the left of the photograph while the proud Eiselsteins are at the right. The young man seated is Daniel Hoagland, a nephew of the Rogers'. -Hinsdale

And that goes for everything from CADILLACS TO JEEPS! A lot of you car owners sort of get "name-itis" when you buy a car! You feel that because you've suddenly become the owner of a "Cadillac," a "Buick" or an "Oldsmobile" — that you can't get proper servicing and repairs anywhere but at a garage or agency that deals solely with that make car. BUT THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE WRONG, MISTER! WE SAY — AND WE MEAN IT! — that you can't take your "Josephine" ANYWHERE, no matter what her "name" — and get better or more satisfactory work than you'll find at PARKS MOTORS.

New Rotary President Outlines Club's Objectives

By MARY FRANK Georgia's loss was Florida's gain in the case of J. Cleve Allen, newly elected president of the Coral Gables Rotary Club. Attracted to Miami as a winter visitor since 1930, Mr. Allen moved here in October of 1945, from Elberton, Georgia, following three years service in the Navy "I consider it quite an honor to be elected president of the Rotary Club," Allen said. "The Club will work under the aims and objectives outlined by Rotary International, which embodies work in club service, vocational service, community service, and international service." Allen succeeds Dr. Otto J. Sieplein who will retire as president on July 1st. Directors of the new board include Dr. Sieplein, Allen, Edward Keating, George B. Caster, Leland C. Shepard, Edward O. Shepard, Edward O. Henderson, James J. Helm, and Herbert W. MacDonald. The other club officers will be named by the new Board of Directors at its initial meeting, and soon thereafter committees will be appointed. A Rotary member for 13 years, Mr. Allen now operates the Coral Gables Furniture Company. He graduated from Georgia Military Academy and Georgia Tech, where he majored in business administration. While in college, he was active in Pi Kappa Phi, social fraternity; Alpha Kappa Psi, commercial fraternity; and was also a member of the inter-fraternity council. The future of Coral Gables is unlimited, and "business development should keep pace with, but not exceed, the residential growth, according to the new Rotary president. Allen is planning to attend the International Convention in San Francisco to be held in June, and the District Convention in Daytona Beach to be held in April. Rotary International will hold its 1948 convention in Dio De Janeiro. At present Allen is president of the Allen Granite Company, Elberton, Georgia; he is a past director of the American Granite Association; a former vice-president of the Georgia State Junior Chamber of Commerce; and is a past District Governor of the Georgia District of Rotary International.
