'We realize the general trend toward lower rents and' leases," he stated, "and feel that it is only fair we should follow these same lines for the benefit of our winter visitors." cKS Sr 'sun I Such was not the case at some of his stops during his recent is expected this coining season, northern trip, Mr. King explained, and several times he expert- and the record Influx will find enced what he felt were exorbitant costs for accommodations. that the city has made the most When the Apartment House and Hotel Association holds its elaborate preparations in its hls-first fall-winter meeting, Mr.

It will be Thursday Instead. This announcement is made by School Superintendent U.

Bennett, who attributes the de lay to Fridays storm, which halted work of crews readying school buildings for opening. About 3.000 youngsters in South Broward County will answer the calls of the bells. The peak attendance is expected to be in February, when more than 3,500 pupils will be enrolled, according to Paul Colbert, supervising principal. Opening of the new $1,500,000 South Broward High School and the Church of the Little Flower parochial elementary school costing about $315,000 will relieve the congestion experienced a year ago, but nevertheless all classrooms will be well filled, Mr. Colbert states.

The high school will take an estimated 1,000 eighth grade and high school pupils from the i Danla and Hollywood Central Schools, and addition of two more grades at the Hollywood gram will be a 10 a. m. parade in which floats and marching units will depict a score of athletic and other types of activities of the summer program. An outstanding musical unit will be the Greater Miami Boys Drum and Bugle Corps marching under the baton of Caesar La-Monlca, director of Hollywoods first band. Transportation of the unit of more than 100 musicians is being arranged by local labor groups.

The military band of the 51st Division, National Guard of Miami, and the South Broward High School band also will be star units in the parade. At 10:30 a. m. at a Youth Rally in Young Circle Park, Rep. Thomas E.

This does not require the spending of extra funds, he stated. The city manager reported that a few scattered palm trees were downed. Fallen palm fronds and shrubbery constituted most of the damage, he stated.

The explanation for the light damage in Hollywood was the fact that a severe trimming of coconut trees was ordered by City Manager McMann some time ago In preparation for any tropical storms. This lessened the damage immeasurably, he pointed out, because shorn trees offer little resistance to the heavy winds. The big trimming project extended from Harrison Street south to the city limits, McMann explained. Walker To Attend Top Club Session R. B.

HOLLYWOOD HAS not grown in an amazingly short time into one of the world's premier vaca-toitlonlands without basic, sound i reasons for that growth. lea has found tills climate Is best, the attractions best, and that South Florida gives more for the money than any other resort region.

Hollywood is big enough for the visitor to live as he chooses. The whole city does not fish, although a large pleasure fishing fleet is here; everyone does not play golf, although there are two excellent courses in the metropolitan area; not everyone attends the horse and dog races, but thousands do: the most famous entertainers are night club attractions, but many visitors do not hear a dance band except over a radio; whatever you like gayely. sports, or rest or a little of all Hollywood has the best of it to offer. The city is free from smoke and soot: a drop of temperature to 50 degrees is a cold wave; swimming, boating, golf, fishing and tennis are daily diversions throughout the winter. These are the reasons why America is on the way to Holly- wood-By-Thc-Sea this winter.
