U.R Fort Ad ams, an "old soldier" which has guarded the principal entrance to Narragansett bay for nearly 300 year?, went on the "retired list" May 31. With fixed artillery for coastal defense now obsolete, the depart ment of defense has ordered the post abandoned for military pur poses. The fort had its earliest antecedents before 1676 when William Brenton, owner of the point where Fort Adams is lo cated, mounted two cannon on the shore to defend his home from Indians and from others ap proaching from the sea. During the Revolution, the Brenton Point fortifications were manned by Americans in 1776 next by the British when they occupied Newport, and later by the French In 1780. In anticipation of a war with France which never came, con gress ordered the construction of new fortifications there. It was named after President John Ad' ams. Strongest in Country At one time it was the strong est fort in the United States. It mounted 458 guns. 20 mortars and 38 carronades. Though staffed with small garrisons in peace-time, the fort has been in continued military use since Its founding. Except for a few brief hours In 1776, when the guns on Brenton Point drove off a British frigate attempting to run the channel, the fort never has seen combat. In World War II the fort was a nerve center for a web of air craft warning systems and head quarters for anti-aircraft de fenses for a wide section of the Atlantic coast. The grounds will be main tained henceforth by watchmen and caretakers under a warrant officer. Parrots are considered game birds in many parts of the world.

June 14, 1858 Bare Skin Taboo At Miami Beach But It Gets By Miami Beach, Fla. (U.R) This oceanside resort's police force has surrendered without a whistle-blast to women who wander downtown clad in only a little more than nothing. On fashionable Lincoln road, akin to New York's famed Fifth avenue, you can see more skin In 30 minutes than at a full performance of the Folies Ber- geie. It's strictly against the law, too. Several years ago, the city council passed an ordinance in tended to preserve modesty by requiring the women to wear "sufficient" clothing on the streets. Mayor Harold Turk re cently revived the law with an order to all policemen to enforce it. . It didn't take. The law is one of the most abused in the city. Nobody seems to want to press It. Few Arrests Made "It's been so long since we ar rested a woman for violating it, I can't remember exactly when it was," Police Sgt. Albert Hakam said. When the sun comes out, the clothes come off. Miami Beach has sunshine nearly every day In the year. The ordinance requires that a "cloak or robe from shoulder to knee" be worn by pedestrians while "going to or coming from the beach." A 10-minute count along Lin coln road revealed 18 women cheerfully paying no attention to the law. A patrolman whose beat cov ers several blocks of the swank shopping district didn't look the other way when violators passed. Neither did he write out sum monses. He just looked.
