Action Taken On
Drawbridge Opening

The State Highway Department
is taking action to avoid the un-
necessary opening of the draw
bridge at Indian River Inlet, which
has resulted in traffic delays along
State Route IA, according to an
nouncement by r. A. Haber, Chief
Engineer of the Department.
The Highway Department, ac-
cording to Mr.. Haber, has been en-
deavoring to have fishing boat
owners and operators revamp
their vessels so that t'appurtenanGes
ON these boats, such as radio anten-
mas, Out-riggers, masts and etc.
could be lowered to pass under the
bridge in a fixed position.
However, Mr.. Haber points out,
the Highway Department has re-
ceived very little cooperation from
the boat owners and operators in
this matter with the result that
a new policy for the operation of
the drawbridge has been adopted.
Under this policy, which will be-
come effective on September 1st of
this year, the drawbridge, will not
be opened for boats that can pass
under it with their appurteances
lowered. The bridge will be opened
for inbound boats at times of rough
seas.
During the months of June, July,
August and September of last year
the bridge was opened 1880 times
for vessels, mostly fishing boats to
pass through it. This created what
is termed as an unnecessary con-
gestiOn of highway traffic on the
heavy travelled ocean-front high
way.
In order to put the new policy
into effect the Highway Department
has issued the following notice to
boat owners using Indian River
Inlet:
"FOr the past several years there
have been many unnecessary open
ings of the Indian River Inlet draw
bridge due to appurtenances on
fishing boats, such as radio an
tennas, out-riggsrs, masts, etc. This
matter has been called to the atten-
tion of the boat owners by the
State Highway Department and al
so by Public Notices prepared by
the U. S. Corps of Engineers.
"The Department has found thai
there has been very little cooper
alton on the part of the boat own
ers in revamping their vessels in
order that they may pass beneath
the bridge in a fixed position. AS
a result, there has been unneces-
sary congestion of highway traffic
on this heavily travelled ocean-front
highway. This matter was discussed
in detail by members of the Depart
ment at their July 10, 1867, meet.
ing. and the following policy was
adopted:
1. "The Department will do every
thing within its power, so long as
such action conforms to existing
marine and Federal laws, to SEE
that this condition is corrected
This action may consist of non
opening of the bridge for vessels
which can easily pass beneath thu
fixed span by a proper lowering o.
their appurtenances. This is par
ticularly true for outbound boats
The bridge will be opened on AM
occasion for inbound boats at times
of rough seas"

Chanel to Be Presented
1857 Fashion Award

The woman who has be-
come a fashion legend in
her own time will receive
Neiman-Marcus' 1857 FASH
ion Award on September 8
in Dallas.
Chanel will be honored as
the sole recipient Of the
award this year. Only once
previously in the history Of
the Oscars of the Fashion
Industry" has this happened.
Adrian in 1913 received a
similar accolade.
In 1854, after a l5-year
lapse, Chanel returned to
designing in the French
couture. Always the rebel,
she Haunted the ruling
Of the French haut cou-
ture that its members guard
their fashion secrets against
copying. This year she re-
signed from the French
Chambre Syndicate. To her
to be copied was an honor.
Fashion must 60 down to
the streets" she has always
said. And so. unmindful of
couture release dates, Chanel
shows her collection when she
wants to and does not restrict
picture publication of her
designs.
But Channels fame quickly
established in this genera
ton also belongs to another.
The Chanel Look" a FASH
ion catch phrase since the 20s
and 30s, was the personlflca-
ton. too. of its creator. Made
moiselle Gabrielle (Coco)
Chanel.
What did it and does it
consist Of?
VOGUE has said that this
look, "as specific as HOO
meant q combination Of
youth. comfort. jersey. pearls,
Of luxury hidden away in
the perfection Of detail such
as sable lining q collar and
revealed only when the COL
lar was turned out"
Eased silhouette
Chanel practically invented
jersey. She brought TO the
world the triangular scarf.
the pleated skirt, the sweater
line. colored gloves for night
parties. shawls, cloches, and
a famous scent in a famous
bottle, Chanel No. S. In a
way, she emancipated wom-
anhood, for she eased the
silhouette. suppressed corsets
and made hair and skirts
shorter.
Her establishment on the
Rue Cambon became so pop
ular that by 1880, she had
2.400 people in her employ
and rs workrooms. She was
considered the richest cou-.
turier in Paris. In addition
to her workrooms. she also
owned perfume laboratories
and a fabric house.
Retired in 1899
When she retired as a de-
signer in 1899, Chanel did not
give UP the perfume business,
which continues to flourish.
In 1854. she made her return
to fashion-not out of need
