David Moore and Donna Louise Rogers with hotrod
Won\u27t it start? One of life\u27s darkest moments - David Moore, 5-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. James L. Moore, couldn\u27t get his hotrod started when he attempted to take his cousin, Donna Louise Rogers, 4-year-old daughter of Ruth Rogers, 936 East Powell, for a ride. David\u27s father built the small car in his spare time in a shop in his garage. The body of the vehicle, about five feet long and two feet wide, is constructed mainly of plywood with a metal hood. It is powered by a Briggs-Stratton motor which is geared down to about five miles per hour. Due to the dubious legality of operating such a vehicle on the streets of Fort Worth, the Moore\u27s have had constructed a circular sidewalk around their home at 1600 Avenue East, on which the car can be ridden by the children without danger to themselves or others.https://mavmatrix.uta.edu/specialcollections_startelegram1950s/12348/thumbnail.jp

Jerry Starnes
Portrait of Jerry Starnes. The boardwalk will be rebuilt at Lake Worth Casino. So will the amusement park. There\u27ll be swimming, boating, water skiing. Also, dancing under the stars, midway rides, concession stands. And when all of his plans are completed, Jerry Starnes, president of Lake Worth Beach, Inc., says It\u27ll be just like it was in the old days. Starnes already has spent $40,000 to improve the amusement park area just south of the Lake Worth Casino.https://mavmatrix.uta.edu/specialcollections_startelegram1950s/12428/thumbnail.jp
