Just home from Victoria Hospital, where she underwent care of a broken right leg and broken right wrist caused by a fall, she says her doctor now tells her she will always have to wear a brace on that right leg. However, her health will not keep her from attending the Pilot Club of Coral Gables, (of which she is a member) meeting Sunday at the Seville Hotel, Miami Beach, for the annual meeting of Pilot's District 4, Pilot International. Mrs. Cornwell, who resides at 2441 SW 21st Ter., was the 1959-60 president of the Coral Gables Club.
