Citizens Oppose Placentia Move FULLERTON (OCNS) — A group of citizens opposed to Placentia's 58-4 annexation have approached Fullerton regarding annexation to the latter. City Administrator Herman Hiltscher reported. It is believed petitions may be circulating in an area north of Madison Ave., comprising more than an estimated 150 acres. Hiltscher said the group was "thinking in terms" of an annexation to $3,885,147 Fullerton School Budget Studied FULLERTON (OCNS) — A preliminary budget of $3,885,147 for the school year 1959-60 was presented to the Fullerton Elementary School Board last night as an opening to a drive to have it into final shape by July. This year's budget containing several "unknown qualities" in its present form is up nearly a half million over last years $3,445,500. The present increase in the budget shows no raise in teachers salaries now being considered but is based on 6.3 per cent additional pupil. The budget in its present form based on continuing the present $1.40 tax rate exceeds district income by $224,000. The income is determined on the basis of an anticipated five per cent increase in assessed valuation and the growth of 700 youngsters. Fullerton of territory running as far east as Bradford Ave., and from Placentia's north city limits to Palm Dr. The people in that area are disturbed by so many annexations being filed by Placentia," the administrator reported: "So they contacted us and we explained that our policy is not to annex unless the people want to come into the city and initiate the action themselves. He said Fullerton has not prepared any annexation maps for the area and that no petition has been filed with the city. He said he was unaware of the status of the proposal by area residents, but did comment that "a lot of people" are being taken into Placentia by the 59-1 annexation who "don't want to go into that city." Sult was filed Mar. 27 by four property owners within Placentia's 300-acre proposed uninhabited annexation 59-1 to stop the annex on the basis that it was illegally filed. The owners, whose land also lies within Placentia's former 3,350-acre inhabited annexation, claim that protests to annex "58-4" were sufficient to terminate proceedings as required by law. However, it is cleared, the city refused to hear the protest on the date set, Mar. 18, and rule them sufficient to terminate proceedings as required by law. Therefore it is claimed, Placentia is barred for one year from annexing any property within te old "55-4" area. Hearing in superior court on the issue is set for April 17.

The 12½ acre plot is located between Ball Road and Orange Ave. on Holder, Holder, at present, dead-ends before it reaches the site of the proposed new school. The property is owned by dairyman Joe Denni Jr., who attended Thursday night's Board meeting with John Zitny, member of Buena Park Planning Commission, to present his views regarding the suitability of the property for school construction. Denni pointed out that the site is buffered by a drainage ditch on one side and the P.E. tracks on the other, both potential hazards to school children. Denni said that his acreage had already been cut by the Flood Control district and he fears further reduction will necessitate reducing the size of his herd. Calvin Pebley, President of the Board, stated that the site was recommended by the State as the best possible location for the proposed school because of its convenient location, enabling children to walk to school avoiding high speed roads and traffic hazards. This would cut down on expensive bus transportation, always a consideration by the state, he said. Creates Problems Pebley also stated that the Board realizes school construction creates problems for owners of property involved, but that the rapid building-up of the area makes it mandatory for the Board to secure suitable school sites. After intensive study the Board unanimously adopted a Classified Employees salary schedule which will go into effect July 1st. Superintendent Del L. Smeltzer submitted to the Board a proposed classified employees handbook for the Board's study and review which when adopted will become a part of Board adopted policy. Patrick Fleming presented information concerning state compensation insurance. A change from an individual district plan to a group policy was adopted. Audit of Books A recommendation by the Superintendent that Vaile, Henley and Co. be contacted and a contract be entered into for the auditing of the books and accounts of the district was approved. In other action the Board accepted the resignation of Betty Jo Brooks and granted Edna Brown a leave of absence. Both are teachers in the Savannah district.

In Motorcycle Gang Leadership By Orange County News Service Two members of a notorious motorcycle gang whose requirement was that one be a "good cycle rider and an all around hoodlum" had their day in Superior Court Friday, one a 22-year-old Long Beach truck driver and the other a 19-year-old Orange mother. Probation for five years and a six-month jail sentence was given to James Elwood Cannon, charged with stealing a motorcycle last December 27 with the aid of other members of the "Vipers," many of whose members have ended up in the courts for narcotics, thefts, and other offenses. The group has such a record that military authorities at El Toro have placed the club strictly off-limits, any Marine even associating with the Vipers is transferred to another part of the world or dishonorably discharged. To date 17 Marines have followed this course. Also appearing before Superior Judge Franklin G. West was attractive Kathryn Ann Hoby, 19101 E. Chapman, reportedly one of the leaders of the fast moving group. The young mother was arrested by police last Feb. 25 in Santa Ana. In her possession police found 13 marijuana cigarettes and two Benzedrine tablets. Having already admitted the charges, the attractive woman was scheduled to appear for her probation hearing and sentencing. It was delayed until April 17 on the request of the defendant. Mrs. Hobby, after her arrest at First and Patron, meeting place for members of the gang, told officers she had been selling the narcotic to other members of the group. She admitted first trying marijuana when only 13. The former Newport Beach high school student revealed that she had again been smoking the dope six or eight months prior to the arrest. Married at an early age, she later divorced her husband. The girl is reported to have been the girl friend of William Snellgrove, 23, a Marine now serving an 11-month jail term for the same offense as Cannon. He was reported to have been the leader of the "Vipers." Cannon, Snellgrove, the Orange girl and other members of the group allegedly found the motorcycle near the Silver Bell Cafe in Silverado Canyon. They reportedly stripped it of parts, the two men returning later to carry it off on a trailer. The parts were sold to various dealers in Riverside and Long Beach! A total of 12 youths were involved in the theft, seven of whom League of Cities Opposes Bill On Party Politics ORANGE (OCNS) — Strong opposition to the legislature's bill to put city governments on a partisan politics basis was voted unanimously Thursday night by the executive board of the Orange County League of Cities. The board split on a vote to favor a one-cent increase in the state's gasoline taxes, but it was approved with only a few dissents. It would provide a decision of the added tax on basis of .6 of a cent to cities and the remaining .4 of a cent to the counties, the money earmarked for road work only on a basis of matching with local funds. In spearheading the opposition, former Mayor Charles A. Pearson of Anaheim said simply "I'm opposed to any new taxes." Approval was voted to the League's priority committee which fixed allocations of the county's gas tax split with cities for road work; more than $6161,000 in projects already has been approved by the Board of Supervisors for the next fiscal year, on the committee's recommendations. It was Pearson who outlined the proposal to put city elections on a political party basis. He held that "it may build up political parties, but at expense of the cities. Cities in eastern and central states which do elect on a party basis don't build up personnel of which they can be proud. Everything is a patronage appointment and everybody goes out with the change of regime." As the league's representative on the California Water Board promoting the Feather River plan of importing surplus water to the southland, Pearson reported that a constitutional amendment may be necessary. He said that "things look favorable" for compromises, but the Feather River Association's meeting would be important to future negotiations. Winston Updegraff, southland manager for the League of California Cities, reported that more than 500 mills of the more than 3,000 introduced in the legislature so far this session "directly affect cities." He reviewed several of them. Field Secretary J. Frank Wharton of the county league warned to have been the leader of the "Vipers." Cannon, Snellgrove, the Orange girl and other members of the group allegedly found the motorcycle near the Silver Bell Cafe in Silverado Canyon. They reportedly stripped it of parts, the two men returning later to carry it off on a trailer. The parts were sold to various dealers in Riverside and Long Beach. A total of 12 youths were involved in the theft, seven of whom are being processed in the courts for a variety of charges. Cannon, whose only prior was a drag racing offense, is the husband of a 16-year-old woman, who allegedly was with the defendant when the motorcycle was stripped. They had been married a month. The defendant is twice married, having divorced his first wife. The Vipers are reported to have had up to 50 members and were a constant headache to county law authorities as well as officials at the El Toro military installation. He said that "things look favorable" for compromises, but the Feather River Association's meeting would be important to future negotiations. Winston Updegraff, southland manager for the League of California Cities, reported that more than 500 mills of the more than 3,000 introduced in the legislature so far this session "directly affect cities." He reviewed several of them. Field Secretary J. Frank Wharton of the county league warned that the proposal for a regional park district for the county may soon be put to vote of the people. He asked a thorough study by cities. Mayor H. Louis Lake of Garden Grove, chairman of the board, announced the league's general membership dinner meeting for Westminster April 30, and said the county league will meet with Citrus Belt League at Anaheim on May 28.

Bulletin—A-3 Anaheim Man Tells of Spending Funds on Girls By OCNS An Anaheim man who told police he took $2,500 from his employer to pay for Attractive Hollywood call girls, will undergo a lie detector test prior to April 24 to determine the exact amount taken since 1957. He is Alfred H. Valencich, 38, of 8901 Syracuse, who appeared Friday before Franklin G. West for his probation hearing and sentencing. Although admitting the theft of money, an argument has arisen over the exact amount he took from the AZXY Liquor Store in Garden Grove. The man's former employers, after an inventory, allege that the loss amounts to $16,302. The defendant himself requested the lie detector test yesterday to settle the question. District Attorney Kenneth Williams fought the motion, contending Valencich had been given ample opportunity to take the polygraph test but had refused. He is now "grasping for straws," argued Williams. However, Judge West granted the man's request for a delay, setting the probation hearing April 24. In a probation report, Valencich said he spent a major portion of money for attractive call girls, paying large sums of money for their weekly visits. An employee of the firm since 1957, Valencich had been considered a trusted and dependable employee. When the owners of the liquor store discovered the loss after an inventory, they hired a private detective to discover who was stealing the money. The Anaheim man was arrested after he failed to record several purchases made by the detective. Confronted with the evidence, he admitted the crime. Perris was reportedly involved with two teenage boys, one of the youths moving from the state before he could be called as a witness. The second youth was able to take the stand, convincing the jury of the Garden Grove man's guilt. RACING APR. 10-MAY 6 POST TIME 1:30 P.M. SATURDAY 1:35 P.M.
