"It has been my pleasure to represent the many volunteers who comprise the Orange County Tuberculosis and Health Association." more commonly known as San Joaquin Valley Fever. Previously the disease was believed to exist only in the San Joaquin Valley, Arizona and Texas but more recently has been found in various parts of Southern California. The disease is considered to be a fungus with rather strange characteristics, Dr. Egeberg pointed out. It can be fatal, though rarely, and while half the people who have it have the disease so mildly they are unaware of it, 20-30 per cent are quite sick with it. The disease is said to be spread through dust and dirt in the air and has been found to exist in both animals and humans. In addition to his published articles, medical school teachings and professional activities with many medical groups, Dr. Egeberg is well noted as having been appointed personal physician in January, 1944, to the then General of the Army, Douglas Macrthur. From 1944-1945, he then served as Aid de Camp to General MacArthur, after which he served as consultant to the Ninth Service Command.

Looting of Pickup, Jeek Disneyland Launches Search for Mermaids Disneyland is searching for 10 mermaids. "We're looking for young women who can swim like mermaids, act like mermaids and perhaps even look like mermaids," revealed Tommy Walker, in charge of special shows at the Magic Kingdom. "We'll supply the mermaid fin-tail," he added. "But they'll have to bring their own bathing suits." The unique talent hunt will be launched Wednesday with auditions taking place at 4 p.m. in the Disneyland Hotel pool. Tryouts are open on any young woman between the ages of 18 and 25 who can meet the requirements of "real mermaids." According to Walker, they include: height between 5 ft. 4 in and 5 ft. 7 in., excellent swimming ability, and long flowing hair preferred. Although Walt Disney has already created his own lifelike plastic versions for Disneyland's Submarine Voyage (opening in June), the 10 additional beauties of the deep are needed for a special show now under discussion. "Prospective mermaids" may call Chuck Corson at KE 3-4456, ext. 410 for further information. Anaheim Residents to $16 Million Tomorrow Local Returns Represent 33 Per Cent Of State-Wide Amount Collected (Special to the Bulletin) NEW YORK — How much will Uncle Sam be collecting, in the form of individual income taxes, from residents of Anaheim this year? The Government anticipates that it will be more than it was last year, when local income and employment taxes came to approximately $15,454,000. The figure, an unofficial estimate, is based on a breakdown of the Statewide total announced by the Treasury Department and on local earnings and income distributions. The returns from Anaheim represent 0.33 per cent of the amount garnered from the State as a whole. Nationally, the Government looks for the payments now being made to be $2.2 billion greater than they were last year. This budgetary increase reflects an average rise in income amounting to 2.8 per cent. Current Returns Assuming a proportionate rise locally, the current returns from individuals in Anaheim will be about $15,887,000. The total take from individuals, through income and employment taxes alone, would then exceed $50 billion, a historic peak. To keep pace with this budgetary planning and to continue bearing their present portion of the tax burden, Anaheim residents would have to raise their combined income by approximately 5.8 per cent in the year. A study by the Tax Foundation discloses that the U. S. Government is presently spending at the enormous rate of $360 million per day, more than $2.5 billion per week. Expenditures in 1958 were 17 billion above the 1957 total, and those in turn, were $11 billion over the 1956 outlays. The Federal tax take, to meet these expenses, is now running at FEEDING TIME — When the “C” in the Lee W. Hollenbeck house Anaheim, the rush is on.

According to George P. Karcher, public relations director for the company, the policy of the company has long been directed toward conservation of water and the metering of all of its connections, under the directive issued by the Public Utilities Commission of the State of California. "We feel that the best interests of the public here in Orange County can be served by connecting to the MWD, and it is toward this end that we are moving as rapidly as possible toward negotiations that will clear our area of any water service other than our own. This is what we have been ordered to do by the Commission in its now famous decision of October, 1956, and we have plenty of time left to fulfill its conditions. "The underground basin here in Orange County is far below what it should be and every day that passes without steps being taken to add to this supply makes the position of every resident here that much more precarious. The Orange County Water District is bringing in water from the Colorado River as fast as it can, but this must be aided by less pumping from the underground basin as soon as possible.
