BUT TENNIS IS HER FIRST LOVE [?]en (Mrs. A. M.) Franklin, chairman of the 1961 Riviera Country Club Women's Golf Association, sent unusual cards this holiday season. They were standard size formal folding cards decorated on the front with a pair of tiny gold putters crossed to hold a tiny golf ball. The card's envelope also enclosed the Association's new year book. Eileen says she has been playing golf for a number of years but her first love is tennis. She and her husband "Red", who both attended the University of Miami before they were married, played tennis. But after "Red" came home from the war, they gave up tennis for golf. However, Eileen still hankers for the feel of that tennis racket in her hand. EILEEN BEVERLY JANE BACK TO THE GRIND Beverly Jane Aylor, freshman at Wesleyan College, Macon, Ga., has returned to college after spending the holidays with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Aylor Jr., 634 Altara Ave. Festivities at home for Bev included the debutante party Mr. and Mrs. Richard DeNyse Maxwell gave at their home, 840 Coral Way, when they presented their daughter, Jerry Lee. Bev's escort to the Deb party was Jim Brewster, a law student at the University of Virginia who flew down from his home in Arlington and was a houseguest of the Aylors. * * * THE MERCADO'S ARE FROM ENGLAND It is quite a houseparty at the home of Michael Mercado of 4820 SW 103rd Pl., since Michael and his sister, Rose, welcomed their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Mercado, and their 12-year-old son, David, as well as the uncle and aunt of Michael and Rose, Mr. and Mrs. Moe Mercado, who arrived from their home in England for a two months visit. Greeting the English visitors Sunday evening at a party at Michael's home, David charmed all the ladies, including Mrs. Vois B. Vaughn of 6250 SW 21st St., by gallantly kissing thei...and as he was presented. Michael will probably sell the merits of life in the United States and Florida in particular to his parents. He has been here 10 years and owns his own beauty salon. His sister, Rose, came over about a year ago. It is a first visit for the Andrew Mercado's. Florida's 1961 peanut acreage allotment is 55,259 acres.

Accra, the capital of Ghana, lacks an adequate natural harbor. Seagoing vessels anchor offshore and deliver freight in two-ton lots to boatmen, who paddle a mile to shore in heavy swells. In 1961, a deep harbor at Tema, 16 miles to the east, will replace Accra's open roadstead, the National Geographic Magazine says.
