Another One Hit Buildings Take Beating From Local Drivers

It appears to be open season for automobiles to strike buildings in Coral Gables. Two building — a store front and a home — have been struck in as many weeks. Morgan John McMichael, 37, of 317 Fluvia, is the latest driver to be attracted by a building. McMichael, who suffered a cut ear, was charged with drunk and reckless driving the evening of Nov. 16 after his car struck the home of Mary Cook, 3600 Ponce de Leon Blvd. Officers Glenn Arp and William Bennett, who investigated the accident, said that McMichael's car, westbound on Cadima, crossed Ponce, jumped the curb across the street, ran over the lawn and struck the building shortly after 5:30 p.m. A flower box and the lawn were damaged as well as the front of McMichael's car. On Nov. 11, a woman driver jumped a curb on Miracle Mile, knocked over a parking meter and smashed into the front of the Lila May Shop.

University of Miami architecture is represented in a group of color slides prepared by the Carnegie Study of the Arts of the United States for distribution to educational institutions throughout the country. UM buildings selected were the Student Union and a group of student housing apartment buildings designed by architects Marion I. Manley and Robert Law Weed and Associates. Purpose of the project is to depict a comprehensive selection of works of art including architecture in America. Supported by the Carnegie Corporation of N.Y., the study was directed by the art department of the University of Georgia. Among the art consultants was Dr. Virgil Barker, retired UM professor of art history and nationally known author on art, who advised on selection of 17th and 18th century paintings.

Marked with bookplates identifying the donors, the books accompanied the Coral Gables group which visited Cartagena this month.

At home in trees or on the ground, chimpanzees forage for fruit, nuts, and green shoots. At nightfall they build leafy nests high in the trees, the National Geographic Magazine says. Before turning in, they soothe one another with lullabies, communicating with cries and gestures.
