'Platter' Ban Won't Starve Gables Radios (for a While)
Directors of two Coral Gables radio stations, having had time to investigate and study the recent ban on record making imposed by Jimmie Petrillo, czar of the musicians union, expressed the opinion today that the action would not affect station operations for at least two years. The prohibition order on the making of future recordings becomes effective January 1, 1948. To Augment Library Bob Standart, commercial director of station WBAY told the Riviera-Times that he has made plans to augment the station's record library as much as possible before the ban becomes effective. "We already have an extensive library, one of the largest in the area," Standart said, "and we will add to it as much as possible." Records Stockpiled He also expressed the opinion that the large record making companies have already stockpiled recordings on unreleased songs and will continue to do so at an accelerated pace. By the time the ban goes into effect, they will have enough new records to supply the demand for almost two years, he pointed out. George Thorpe, whose radio station WVCG is expected to go on the air in December, also reported that he had amassed a large record library and agreed with Standart that the record companies will be able to continue to issue records from stockpiles for nearly two years. Union May Record Oliver P. Washburn, director of the Coral Gables Philharmonic and a member of the musicians union, predicted that the union itself would eventually go into the record making business. He said that the musicians had created a "Frankenstein" in the record industry that threatened to put many of them out of business through what action has been taken by Petrillo was necessary. Neither of the Coral Gables radio stations are affiliated with networks and will rely extensively on their record libraries for musical programs.
Lift Controls, Say Experts

Pranksters Bell, Box and Birds Hallowe'en Toll
A ship's bell, a Swedish mail box, two iron birds and 200 sprinkler heads were entered on police ledger today as Hallowe'en casualties, in a final recapitulation of October 31 activities. The bell was taken from the home of Inman Padgett, 1303 North Greenway Drive, while A. M. Blauvelt, 540 Avenue Aragon, reported that pranksters had taken his imported letter receptacle. The sprinkler head theft was discovered Sunday by Max Souvign caretaker of the P. H. Reisman residence at 845 Avenue Catalonia. The Reismans are still in the North. Mrs. George Romfh, 1901 Country Club Prado, told police Saturday that "trick or treaters" had taken two iron birds and the house numbers from her residence. Theft of a Remington portable typewriter from his car, parked in the driveway of his home, 1117 Alhambra Circle, was reported to Police, Sunday, by C. J. Bagley. Bagley said that the machine was, valued at $90.
Youth's License Held After Crash
Gables police reported today that they were holding the driver's license of Adhemar W. Renuart, 16, 5735 S. W. 12th Street as the result of an accident in which he was involved on Saturday. Driving a car owned by Edward Parkinson, 741 North Greenway Drive, Renuart struck a parked automobile owned by Robert Kirkland, 1220 Avenue Messina. Investigating officers reported that Renuart was evidently looking the other way at the time and did not see the car. The accident occurred in front of the Kirkland residence. What then remains? Courage, and patience, and simplicity, and kindness, and last of all, ideas remain; these are the things to lay hold of and live with.—A. C. Benson.
City Will Pave Home Driveways
Coral Gables' street paving program has progressed to the point where the city is now in a position to install lead-in driveways for private residences, City anager William T. McIlwain revealed today. He estimated that the driveways, connecting streets with private driveways, can be installed for approximately $25 each. Persons desiring such work done must post $25 in cash. If the work amounts to less, refunds will be made. Applications for such paving work should be made to the public works department.
One-hundred thousand Americans were killed by accidents in 1946, according to the National Safety Council.
Pair Face Gun Charge, Federal Count on Car
(Continued from Page 1) make his report. Before he had finished the report the car drove past the police station. W. O. Tanner, of the South Miami force and Edwards chased them in a squad car. Gardner fired several shots at the squad car but claimed that he was not shooting at anyone, police said today. It was believed that one bullet struck the car but no mark has been found. Car Abandoned The two men abandoned the car on Galloway Road between Bird Road and Coral Way and attempted to evade the police on foot. Burchall was captured at about 10 o'clock on the Tamiami Trail while Gardner managed to evade the searchers, who were using bloodhounds, an airplane, and a duck, until about 2:30 in the afternoon. The plane was piloted by Gables Police Sergeant Harry Bell. Gardner and Burchall were booked at the Coral Gables Police station by Edwards, Sergeant C. W. Whalen and Deputy Constable W. F. Shields. They will be turned over to the county sometime today. Burchall and Gardner met while they were serving time at the National Reform school at Chillocothe, Ohio for automobile thefts. Gardner is from Kirksville, Mo. and Burchall is from Sunbright, Tennessee. Police officers were hampered in their search when the police radio would transmit only half the guaranteed distance, Chief Kimmel reported. It was necessary for the police to station a squad car at a halfway point to relay all messages to and from the station.
