Friday evening is weekly meeting date for the County Fran Sterling — Editor Hetherington Comes Back With Yarns From Three-Day Pegleg Desert Safari Podner, a female critter shore 'nough won top prize for tellin' the biggest whopper at the Liar contest of the Boregre Springs' 7th annual three-day Pegleg Trek, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Ray Hetherington of the Rock and Book shop at Knotts' Berry Farm, founder and president of the safari, came back today passing along tales. The contest committee changed rules this year to make it possible for a woman to win over the divisions of each sex, he said. A woman from San Diego succeeded with this: She had heard of a lost ruby mine from which Indians had been getting rubles. She set out to search for same. After several days she finally discovered it and picked up an enormous pigeon blood ruby, the most valuable of that stone. She put it in her bag, slung it over her shoulder and headed down hill toward a prospector's camp by a spring. She ran into a group of large mosquitoes that commenced to slap at her sack. The farther she went, the more drastic they became. By the time she reached the camp, when she reached for the ruby it was a rose quartz—the buzz bombers had sucked out all the blood. In the male division, an explana-tion of why a friend of the prevaricator paid taxes on a $3,000,000 income took the award. The friend had been out roaming around in the mesquite with his pet cat. When he opened a can of milk and proceeded to fill the saucer for Pussy, a rattlesnake appeared and laped it up himself, rattling gold nuggets from his tail. What ensued, of course, was every time the friend fed the snake canned milk, he had to pick up the nuggets. Hetherington says he has turned over publicity for the Pegleg Trek and Liar Contest in memory of the most famous gold mine loser of California fact and legend, to the Boregre Springs Chamber of Commerce. He believes their new plan for advertising will bring two or three thousand to the 8th trek.

Claim Smog May Shorten Lives LOS ANGELES — Evidence exists that smog is shortening the lives of people in this area, reports the chairman of the Smog committee of the Los Angeles County Medical Assn. Dr. Francis M. Pottenger Jr. told a meeting of the Pure Air committee, a citizens' anti-smog group, that the evidence is not "positive" but "we have reason to believe it is true." Pottenger praised Dr. John V. Barrow, past president of the medical association, for having "the courage to put down smog as contributing to the death of one of his patients." Barrow listed smog as causing the Oct. 3 death of Mrs. Gertrude L. Call, 69. "Other doctors haven't had the intestinal fortitude to list smog as one of the death causes," he said. Pottenger said smog also has a psychological effect on health. It bothers and worries people and reduces their efficiency," he said.
