We printed here the mea- gurements, and intend to refrain from measuring until the 30 day diet, period is ended. However we can report that when Sylvia put on a brand new -wit last night, a suit worn only a few times before the beginning of this dict, she found she. could not wear it because it was so loose at the waistline. That is one of the garments she will} have to put away for future alter nations when dieting is done. We would also like to report here the total results of one complete week's dieting, Sylvia Kamerer now weighs 146 pounds, which she says is much less than she has weighed This in s debbil and & e relaxed a bit ake hot boul t “possible that her S ports |weight loss might u...2 peen a few jpounds more if we had not been |forced to relax the strenuous diet- ing that she undertook.

The vandalism was first report- ed at'1:41 a. m. today when Police Officer D. H. Goodrich, who was patrolling in.the area, heard noises issuing from the cemetery. With the aid of Lt. Cerezo and Officer Herman Conley, he began a search of the area. © When the police were walking around the cemetery, they heard a tremendous crash and investigation revealed that, even as they search- ed, the culprits were still at work . jand that they had pushed another large tombstone to the ground. They continued their search in a futile effort to find the persons responsible for the damage. About three minutes later they heard another crash and Cerezo a A cordon was thrown around the cemetery to prevent the escape of the marauders but darkness pre- vented an effective search. After an hour, when no trace of the prowler was found, the hunt was discontinued. This morning, a check by Rus- sell and police officer Henry Loun- ders revealed that at least 28 graves had been desecrated. Some of the smashed monuments weigh- ed upwards. of 1000 pounds, it was pointed. out.

It was recently improved at a cost of $6,000 and dedicated on January 28th. Some of the smashed monuments had stood untouched for more than It marked the third time in five years that such an incident has oc- curred at the cemetery although nothing to compare with the magni- tude of today's damage has ever happened.

For this Purpose Commonwealth Oil recent- ly got an extension of time to drill at the Monroe County loop on the mainland. The Internal Improve- ment board granted the extension. Axelson stressed that while op- Posing extension of the Park into Monroe County, he and other own- ers favor drilling within the park. “It is not commonly understood that the oil companies can drill in 7 percent of the park atea until 1958. If oil is discovered in the Park area by 1958, they can contin- ue to drill forever. Drilling is tak: ing place within the park. It is Everglades National Park that the 39% 4|;companies haven’t the right to drill. Axelson complained that in U. S. condemnation of private pro- Perty for the Park Service, the owners never get a fair price. “As it is the Park now has two- thirds of all the waterfront on the mainland south of the line from Miami to Everglades City. If we allow their expansion, they'll have 75 percent. The main thing we in South Florida have is climate and waterfront. And here they want to take more of this away.” Alexson said that in 1949, the U. S. Congress passed the act allowing the right to: drill on all the private lands within the: pa: if the private land owners selected to retain their mineral rights at the time of condemnation or pur- chase. That includes about 400,000 charge. He has served most of his time on a ten dollar sentence. Guerro said: “T didn’t start the fight. I'm not an ordinary shrimper.” Leonard Lindsey was fined five dollars for failing to have a driver’s license. A colored youth named Thurs- ton first pleaded guilty to a lar- ceny charge and then asked the Judge for a Jury trial. The Judge told him that he may well land in the penitentiary if the jury finds him guilty. Judge Caro has moved his cham- bers to the courthouse, first floor, in the office formerly occupied by the Monroe County Sheriff. His ex- tensive law library and other legal documents are now conveniently located. DRUNKEN PARENTS (Continued from PagefOne) at 2:30 in the county clinic, Flem- ing Street. Sitting with her \in the usual informal manner of Juvenile Court was Mrs. Isabel Fleming, probation officer. The two officials heard another case in which illegi- timate children were involved. The hard-working Judge made appoint- ments with the parties involved to work out a solution. The colored unmarried mother, who works, had complained that she was not being allowed to see the two children of one unblessed union. The children have been cared for by the mother of the unmarried father of the : $0 years up until this morning’s at- | children. tack. That here care was loving and efficient was testified by colored witnesses. The 27 year old unwed mother was asked by Judge Gibson to see her for further planning on the case. The little children mean- while were to remain with their grandmother on the paternal side. Man’s Real Name Learned Geo. W. Roberts, who was lost at sea last week when he was swept over the side of the shrimp boat “Cherokee,” was erroneously named as “Porto Roberts,” it was learned today. The police réport of the disappearance had him listed by the latter name Justice of the Peace Ira Albury, however, determined the man’s correct name. No trace of the 56-year old fisher- man has been found. He is a half brother of H. G. Wells of this city. YOU CAN DO SOMETHING about your money problem.
