Gables Firm Is Awarded School Contract
W. F. Thompson Construction Co., of Coral Gables, has been awarded the $379,299 contract for construction of South Palmetto Elementary School, SW 136th St. at 77th Ave. The lowest of several bidders, Thompson Construction Co. is expected to begin work this week on the job that is expected to be completed this summer. The school will be opened for the first time this fall. The school plant will be built on a nine-acre tract and will relieve student pressure at Palmetto and Coral Reef Elementaries. According to Architect John M. Lyell, of Miami, plans for the school are those formerly used for the construction of Coral Reef Elementary. The new plant will include 20 classrooms, a library, cafetorium, administrative facilities and a teacher's lounge.

Modeling classes for teenagers and adults will start at Cutler Ridge Regional Shopping Center Jan. 6. The course will include drama, charm, speech, make-up, dancing, posture, hair styling, good grooming, fashion modeling and weight control.
