The belief also seems to be that if one or- ganization is using the ballroom for a dance that it be limited to them for that night, which is ra-! ther important. If the Navy is using the ballroom for a night, why let it be just Ngyy.

This street, which is a continua- tion of state highway No. One, is quite a problem. S. Zorsky and Rogelio Gomez have donated a stop light at the corner of Divi-; sion and Windsor Lane to slow fast-moving traffic passing along this street. Also bike riders Should be cautioned against dis-} regarding traffic regulations. A favorite maneuver of bike riders is to come up to a corner, where they should stop, and then sweep around close to the curb while the| Club, with docks similar to those} of the Royal Palm Yacht Club in Miami, and its long wide beach are two beauty spots.
