William Kappes and Catch

Beginner's Luck Nets Sailfish for Resident

Proving that the adage about beginners luck still holds true, William Kappes, 3235 LeJeune Road, landed a seven-foot sailfish on his first fishing trip. Unfortunately, Mrs. Kappes, who accompanied the party, will have to tell about "the one that got away." Mrs. Kappes also hooked a big one, but after a five min-ute struggle the fish slipped the hook. Fishing from the charter-boat "Hazel Mack" about five miles off Miami Beach, Kappes reported that it took him 45 minutes to boat the fish. Of unusually small weight for it's size, the sail weighed only 45 lbs. Kappes, who is a watchmaker at Carroll's Jewelers is having his catch mounted and will re-ceive a certificate entitling him to membership in the "Sailfish Club."

Named Soloist

Youth Center Also Named Possibility

(Continued from Page One) large rooms at the Center could be used for the purpose, if con-struction on the new wing could be started immediately. Morgenthaler said that if the Youth Center were used, that playground facilities would be available to the students. Plans to transport the students to the Ada Merritt School drew a storm of protest from parents when word became known last week. Headed by Mrs. David Peene, Elementary School P.-T.A. presi-dent; Mrs. Bowman Hinckley, Ponce P.-T.A. head and Mrs. James Lindley, a group of parents appeared before the city commis-sion on Tuesday night to enlist city support in the campaign. Henderson stated yesterday that if the churches will grant the use of the Sunday school rooms, that the problem appears solved this year. He also stated that if enough room is located he will advocate removing of some of the portable classrooms on the Elementary School playground, and grassing of the area which has been termed a "dust bowl" by the Parent-Teacher groups. Henderson indicated that the school board will be willing to pay rent for the space occupied in the churches.

Tax Protests Are Nil Here

(Continued from Page One) meeting Tuesday was Commis-sioner Thomas C. Mayes. Mayes argued that the county by high valuation, was penalizing property holders who have tried to boost business property during the Mir-acle Mile campaign. County valuation of the one block area which lies just west of Douglas Road on Coral Way had been set at $300 per front foot but was lowered to $275 on the basis of the complaints. Coral Gables' assessment places the value between $150 and $190 on the North side of Coral Way and between $157 and $172 on the South side. One Petition While the county board had its troubles the local equalization group reviewed the only petition it received and recommended that the signers confer with the city manager's office on their prob-lem. The petition submitted by 25 homeowners in the Riviera section West of Blue Road and North of LeJeune Road, objected to a 10 per cent raise on the grounds that they did not receive certain municipal services. Blount ex-plained that the increase merely brought valuation of that property in line with other valuations. It had originally been assessed on a cost of building basis. Lights Asked Among the requested services the petition listed parkway plant-ing and street lights. When ques-tioned on these points today, City Manager William T. McIlwain stated the area would have park-ways and street lights as soon as the press of present work will al-low. Many residential areas have been without these services much longer than the Riviera section, he pointed out. All good that ever was written, taught, or wrought comes from God and human faith in the right. —Mary Baker Eddy.
