South Rises Again in This Trailer Van

You Civil War buffs will get a chance to add to your knowledge of that conflict during the Junior Orange Bowl festivities. As unrelated as the two events may be, the U.S. Army never misses an opportunity to display its exhibits wherever a large crowd is sure to gather. The trailer van, filled with Civil War Centennial materials gathered by the Army, will be a Coral Gables City Hall from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. today and tomorrow (Thursday and Friday.) Admission will be free, according to Sgt. Ted Fetig, a Miami Shores resident who was sent down on special assignment from Washington to help resent the exhibit. Assisting the Army on their local visit is Adam G. Adams, of 1200 Alegriano Ave., a real estate broker who heads the state's Civil War Centennial Commission. Each month, 3,000 letters depicting Florida history during that month 100 years ago, are mailed from Coral Gables by the commission. These go to schools, newspapers, and other interested groups. Tomorrow and Friday's exhibit shows not only how Civil War innovations contributed to military advances, but the everyday life of Union and Confederate soldiers, the contrast in medical care. Lifesize photographs of Generals U.S. Grant and Robert E. Lee are also featured. A movie depicting the war's big guns will be shown also.
