Knight day announced his support for proposed legislation to remove technical restrictions which may prevent a good many qualified and women from seeking school trustee posts. The Governor declared: "May 21 is an election day of prime significance to all Californians interested in the welfare of our local public schools. In most of the 2000 school districts throughout the State, elections will be held on that date to choose school board members who will devote their time and effort, without compensation, to the management of local school affairs." Legislation has been properly corrected this untenable situation relieving trustees of responsibility if they make a statement of interest in such cases and CARBURETOR? Is it choke up and sputter?

UNION OIL SERVICE STATIONS Fisher and Hansen — Wholesale Distributors — 413 S. Vine, Anaheim Fans Await Sunday’s Wedding for Robinson Peepers, Miss Remington NEW YORK — The most diabolical plot ever hailed against single-blessedness will reach its climax in full view of millions next Sunday evening. Robinson Peepers gets married. “The bridegroom is a little nervous, but he is a very happy man,” said his spokesman, Wally Cox. “He might as well be. After all, they’ve been scheming him toward the altar slowly but surely for two years, and he can’t claim he’s been stampeded into marriage.” Cox, who has the title role in the popular TV show, “Mr. Peepers,” added that the fictional romance in which he has been engaged since the summer of 1952 has not influenced h’s off-camera life. “I have no wedding plans for myself,” he explained. “One marriage in the family is enough for the time being.” Marriage Before Summer Interest in the romance of Peepers science teachers at Jefferson City’s High school and Nancy Remington, the school nurse, has grown rapidly among the program’s fans in recent weeks as it became obvious that the authors were intent on getting the bespectacled young man securely hitched before the program left the air for the summer. In successive weeks, Peepers has bought an engagement ring, proposed and been accepted, gone apartment hunting and engineered a meeting of the two families. “The May 30th program will have the couple on their honeymoon,” Cox said. “I haven’t heard about the script for the following week, the last show of the season, but I assume they’ll be settling down in their apartment and making plans for the summer.” Patricia Benoit, who plays Nancy Remington, is married to Peter Swift, who works for a magazine. “It was nothing like the much publicized film.” Cox recalled. “She was off the program one week last fall, and when she showed up the middle of the next week for rehearsals, she calmly announced that she had used the time to get married.” The National Broadcasting Company and the New Yorker Hotel have arranged that the wedding program Sunday will be seen in the studio by 50 honeymooning couples who register at the hostelry with proper credentials. They will be introduced to Mr. and Mrs. Peepers after the program. Cox said that when the program returns to the air early in September there is a possibility that it will be seen only three times a month instead of four. On the off weeks, the cast would kinescope programs that could be used the following summer to keep the program going after the live performances ended. Flood Threatens City in Idaho By UNITED PRESS Idaho health department officials prepared to fly typhoid vaccine to Bonners Ferry, Ida., Wednesday as the Kootenai River surged near flood stage. Tharea has been declared an emergency area by state officials. Leonard Wood, who made the announcement in the absence of Gov. Len Jordan, said the action was taken to make emergency state and federal aid available if the Kootenai floods. The Kootenai boiled to a level of 29.6 feet late Tuesday, just 1 1/2 feet below official flood stage. Meanwhile, housewives did their dusting with shovels at Roswell and Lovington, N.M. and at Big Spring, Tex., scene of flash floods Monday and yesterday. The flood waters had ebbed today, although more scattered rain was forecast for the Southwest. State Engineer Mark Kulp said dikes built after the serious 1948 flood could withstand a level of 34 feet but only for a short time. The crest was also expected to reach Orofino, Ida., Wednesday where Mayor Bert Curtis said he was alarmed at the situation. A level of 17 feet, one foot below flood stage, was predicted for Spalding, Ida. Lewiston, Ida., where the Snake River had reached 13.9 feet was expected to be safe for the time being. An Army convoy of 36 vehicles from the Yakima, Wash., firing center was camped in the Bonners Ferry area and 400 troops at Fort Lewis, Wash., were alerted for possible flood duty. However, the Army said they Lewiston, Ida., where the Snake River had reached 13.9 feet was expected to be safe for the time being. An Army convoy of 36 vehicles from the Yakima, Wash., firing center was camped in the Bonners Ferry area and 400 troops at Fort Lewis, Wash., were alerted for possible flood duty. However, the Army said they will not be called in to help until the state is unable to handle the situation. The action by the governor's office however apparently paved the way for Army help. Few Take Refuge Sheriff Jim Mulvaney said that although the business district am-30 per cent of the residential area of Bonners Ferry was beneath the level of protective dikes, only about six families had moved. The population of Bonners Ferry is about 1800. "The dikes should hold back a level of between 33 and 35 feet" he said. "I guess there won't be much evacuation until it gets to 33 feet. Then the families in the lower residential area will just move in with those up on the hill." WEST COAST Continuous Performances Daily Doors Open 1:15 P.M. A Romance of Ecstasy!
