C. Hollister of a new four-year course in the School of Civil Engineering. Besides the strictly professional engineering training in which it has always ranked among the leaders, the School, beginning next fall, greatly broadens its scope to prepare its students for executive positions in business and in local, regional, state and national public works, in railroad operation, in the administration of public utilities, and in city management, appraisal, and valuation.

N the brilliant pageant of life dis- Itinguishing Miami Beach as the country's smartest winter resort, the Roney Plaza has been for more than a decade the criterion of social ex- cellence. It is significant that the aristocracy of this and other coun- tries confer this distinction on the Roney Plaza. The reasons are both obvious and subtle. Not only is the Roney Plaza America's finest ocean- front hotel . . . with a handsome tropic estate embracing private bath- ing beach, cabana colony and com- plete facilities for recreation . . . but the name of the Roney Plaza is itself a hallmark of luxurious living and social graces worthy of its distin- guished clientele. Among the extraordinary privileges enjoyed by Roney Plaza guests are membership in the Florida Year- Round Clubs: Roney Plaza Cabana Sun Club adjoining the hotel, Miami Biltmore Country Club in Coral Ga- bles, Key Largo Anglers Club on the Florida keys . . . and transportation by aerocar, autogiro or sea-sled to all vacation interests in this resort area.
