ELLEN’S BEDROOM-MORNING Ten year old girl ELLEN SPENCER is leaning on her desk as she picks up a sharpened yellow pencil from her Bugs Bunny mug.

Ellen picks up one invitation and starts writing with a small smile on her face. ELLEN’S P.O.V.-INVITATION Ellen’s handwriting reads "YOU ARE INVITED TO ELLEN’S 10TH BIRTHDAY" and the invitation also has one of her friends’ name, along with her address and contact details. Ellen stops writing,swipes an envelope off the desk and slips the invitation inside. Holding the envelope like a prized trophy, Ellen quickly puts the envelope and gets a sudden paper cut on her right thumb. ELLEN Ow! Ellen temporarily sucks the pain out of her thumb and continues with her invitation-writing routine. EXT. SCHOOLYARD-LATER During lunchtime, ELLEN is outside her school and at the playground. With a rather anxious smile on her dial, Ellen tries to pass out her invitations to the other kids who rudely ignores her. INT.

[87-44] FROM THE EDITORS The 1948 cover photograph captures much of the spirit of post-War Florida and suggests much about where the state was heading in the years to come. During World War II, women and blacks had entered new arenas - including sports as well as industry and the army - in unprecedented numbers.
