Edwin Drescher Elected To New Pan Am Post
Edwin Drescher, 8080 SW 84th Ct., manager of Pan American World Airways Latin American Division, has been elected assistant comptroller for the airline. His headquarters will be in New York. Drescher has been division manager with headquarters in Miami for almost eight years, during which time the division has set new records each year for passengers and cargo carried. He helped launch the division into the jet age a year ago when the airline's Boeing 707's began flying between New York and Buenos Aires. A veteran of 20 years with Pan Am, Drescher was named division manager in December, 1952, moving up from division accountant to succeed Humphrey W. Toomey, who was at that time elected a Pan Am vice president with headquarters in Rio de Janeiro. Drescher joined the comptroller's staff of the airline in New York early in January 1942. Assigned to Miami in December of that year, he assisted in organizing Pan Am's general accounting office, now located in New York. He became Latin American Division accountant in 1945. During World War II, Drescher handled the accounting on numerous important wartime contracts performed by Pan American for the U.S. government. A native of Brooklyn, N. Y., Drescher was graduated from New York University's School of Commerce and Finance in 1930. Drescher is a director of the EDWIN DRESCHER Bank of Perrine and a former director of the Bank of South Miami. He is a member of the Chambers of Commerce of South Miami, Coral Gables and Hialeah, the Wings Club and the Riviera Country Club.

Van Lines, Inc. with their air-conditioned offices and fire proof warehouses, 2136 NW 24th Ave., began operations here 14 years ago and has since assumed a place of leadership in the moving and storage fields.

Question: Isn't a tropical cruise a bit silly for someone who lives in Florida? Answer: Of course not. Mountainous tropical islands are not like Florida.
