OVERCOMES HANDICAP
Disabled Man Developes Hobby Makes and Polishes Rock Spheres
By JIM MOORE
What does it mean to be totally disabled?
What does it mean to have to stay home and not go out and work for a living? After several years of working and enjoying friends and hobbies, suddenly to have to go to bed and not get up for several months? This can be demoralizing to a person that has been so active all his life.
Even after the doctor says a little activity can be undertaken, being restricted to one's home means that a whole new life has to begin.
Such is the case of an Anaheim resident who has found a new life, discovered a host of friends and made himself into a useful citizen rather than a burden on his wife and friends.
This is the case of Elven Olmstead. He resides at 1731 W. La Palma.
The victim of a near fatal heart condition which will leave him incapable of holding down a job from now on, Elven has made himself the envy of rock hounds throughout the community, because of his own capabilities.
Elven and his wife, Daisy, have found the type of companionship that few married couples know. Each is an avid rock hound and has quite a collection.
Elven specializes in making rock spheres. What's so outstanding about that? Just this! All the equipment that Elven uses was made by him. He has grinders and polishers and all sorts of machinery used in the processing of stones for display work.
How It Began
It all began in 1957 when hunting for rocks in the wayside areas of Southern California became a part of the Olmsteads life.
shape of a sphere. This is repeated until a rough sphere is formed.
Then the sphere is cut down and the rough corners are ground off and the sphere begins to take on a smooth appearance.
Polishing
Now, all that remains is the polishing. This is accomplished by placing the sphere between two pieces of pipe which are connected to a pulley device. Tension is maintained against the sphere, causing the friction between the pipe ends and the rock to wear off the rough edges, making a smooth surface. The medium between the pipes and the rock is a cutting agent in water which acts as an abrasive, thereby polishing the smooth surface of the rock into one of marble-like appearance.
Sounds easy, doesn't it? It isn't. The process takes hundreds of hours of work of hand cutting, grinding and finishing, before the final step of polishing can be done.
This is the type of thing that Elven does now. The only difference between Elven and other rock hounds, is that it takes him much longer to accomplish the same job.
The reason, of course, is the work time limit by which Elven has to abide, for he can only work a few hours a day.
To offset this handicap, Olmstead is visited by his fellow rock hounds regularly. They bring him

Brewer, first vice-president, and Mrs. Kenneth Won, second vice-president, their offices were typed as the dedication of a book; Mrs. Michael Gullon, secretary, whose part of the book was the chapter; Mrs. Prentice Moreland, treasurer, the pages of a book; Wallace Donavan, auditor, was likened to the appendix of the book; Mrs. John Goode, historian, whose office was compared to the index or the table of contents; Mrs. Richard Sisman, parliamenarian, was the title of the book, and to the members Mrs. Liesch asked for the support of the general membership, for without their support and faithful attendance the book cannot be written. This "book," a volume of this year's service will be added to those already on record, with the same pride of achievement that has marked the previous year's accomplishments.
Mrs. Sylvia Meyers, a member of the Fullerton chapter of the Grace Parlor of the Native Daughters of the Golden West and native of Centralia District, made the presentation of the State Bear Flag to the school.
The sixth grade class gave a choral reading of Rudyard Kyping's "If" following the singing of the Pledge to the Flag and reciting the American's Creed.
Guests introduced were members of the local library board of trustees, Mmes. John Fowler, James Calder, Melvin Perry and Mrs. Callaway. Mrs. Perry spoke briefly on the coming library board election and the services it offers.
Elven specializes in making rock spheres. What's so outstanding about that? Just this! All the equipment that Elven uses was made by him. He has grinders and polishers and all sorts of machinery used in the processing of stones for display work.
How It Began
It all began in 1957 when hunting for rocks in the wayside areas of Southern California became a part of the Olmstead life.
Rocks from all over the area were gathered. Even some from out of state were picked up and taken home by the couple.
The tragic thing that makes hopeless stay-at-homes of some people, struck the happy couple. Olmstead suffered a near disastrous heart attack.
Now, under the care of a heart specialist, Elven has rediscovered his place in the community life and the lives of those who knew him before the heart muscle was stricken.
After having spent months lying in bed, incapable of working or doing much of anything, rocks have become one of the most important parts of the Olmstead's living habits.
Specialty of the Olmstead house are rock spheres. What is a rock sphere? Most of us have played marbles as youngsters. Just take a marble, any size, enlarge it to about ten to 20 times its size, depending on the size of the marble you have in mind, and you have an idea of the size of a rock sphere.
You don't have a rock sphere, however. Marbles, for the most part, are made out of glass.
A rock sphere, naturally, is made out of rock and can be made from any kind of rock. It's very simple . . . to explain. However, making a rock sphere can be quite a lengthy process.
Depending on the size of the sphere with which you wish to end up, you make the size of the first few cuts to coincide with the approximate size of the finished product.
Several cuts are made on a piece of rock to form a cube. Then the corners of the cube are cut off giving the rock the beginning hours of work of hand cutting, grinding and finishing, before final step of polishing can be done.
This is the type of thing that Elven does now. The only difference between Elven and other rock hounds, is that it takes him much longer to accomplish the same job.
The reason, of course, is the work time limit by which Elven has to abide, for he can only work a few hours a day.
To offset this handicap, Olmstead is visited by his fellow rock hounds regularly. They bring him specimens of rocks from their own trips to the desert and other areas, to keep him supplied.
Gem Show
Elven_and his wife plan to have an exhibit in the Orange Coast Mineral and Lapidary Society's Gem and Mineral Show, to be held this coming Saturday and Sunday at the County Fair Grounds in Costa Mesa.
They, along with other members of the Orange Coast Mineral and Lapidary Society, will display their handwork in the Agricultural Building.

Funds from Dance to Equip Parochial School
PLACENTIA — St. Joseph's Catholic Church is sponsoring its first dance at the Elk's Club in Anaheim, Saturday, April 18th, 9:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.
Art Castillo, chairman of the dance committee, has gone all out to make this affair a successful one, because it is planned to hold a dance annually and make it an affair to look forward to by all the friends and members of St. Joseph's Parish. Refreshments of coffee and cake and snacks donated by the ladies of the Church will be available. For those attending the dance and not wishing to dance, a room has been acquired with card tables for playing bridge, canasta or any social card game.
Funds derived from this project will go toward the equipping of their school, which is nearly completed. They plan to start sessions in September of this year, which will include only primary grades at first. In order to help facilitate the opening of the school, the dance committee hopes to sell all tickets to have the time necessary to purchase the furniture and blackboards.
There are still a few tickets available and may be purchased each, or if possible reserve them and get them at the door the night of the dance, Castillo said. There may be a few to be had at the door on Saturday night, but the committee cannot promise, Castillo added.
Castillo is in charge of the dance orchestra and the enthusiasm and zeal of his committee has promised a wonderful evening for all. The affair will be informal wear—no jeans, and men are required to wear a tie.
Working on the committee with Castillo are Mrs. Wilbur Schaner, Mrs. Norman Nichols, Mrs. Art Winney, Mrs. Carl Tice, Fred Yslas, Al Castillo, Mrs. Del Boisseranc, and Rudy Rodriguez.
