(Bulletin Photo) REBUILD THEM Trio Arrested in Westminster as Stolen Auto Ring Found by Chance WESTMINSTER (OCNS) — What started out as a simple citation for a small trailer running without rear lights has snowballed into a ring of stolen cars and illegal junk dealings. Early yesterday morning, Officer James Noon of the Westminster Police Department stopped two men when he noticed the failure of lights on a trailer. He observed an air compressor inside and the officer told OCNS he considered it a strange time of night to be hauling a compressor. Upon investigating, he discovered the serial numbers had been filed off. Investigation revealed that it had been stolen from Tarzana several months ago. Subsequent investigation showed that a horse barn was allegedly being used to make over stolen Renault cars. Police have found at least four cars, plus a car and a half in pieces. Officers told OCNS the case today is snowballing into larger and larger proportions. Arrested for grand theft are Joseph A. Toyt, 46, a motel operator, from Sherman Oaks; Hershall Toyt, 45, of the same city; and Fred Lee Roberts, 25, of Westminster. Roberts is reported to be skilled in body work of cars. Observers on the scene said it appeared the suspects who allegedly were willing to take the chance of stealing cars were caught in their own web. They were caught taking the chance of running without tail lights.

County’s Tallest Struggle Hit Snag In Planning Laguna Beach Artists Protest Because of Beach’s Esthetic Beauty SANTA ANA (OCNS) — Plans for the county’s tallest structure, a 20-story apartment house at South Laguna, hit a major snag yesterday afternoon when the County Planning Commission indicated unwillingness to grant a use variance. About two dozen Laguna residents, several of them artists, were at the public hearing here in which the Macco Corp. sought permission to build the apartment house on land which is zoned for single-family dwellings. The only action taken by the Planning Commission was to take the application under submission, but there is no doubt in anyone's mind that the use variance application will ultimately be recommended for denial. Members of the commission indicated they might be receptive, however, to a proposal to rezone the entire area between the Coast Highway and the ocean, at the end of Fourth St. in South Laguna. Plans for the 20-story building show that the lower 10 floors would be built along the face of a cliff that rises above the beach. The upper 10 floors would be above the level of the Coast Highway, a separate three-story building, fronting on the Coast Highway, would contain a 200-seat restaurant and an underground garage. R-1 (single family dwelling) zoning constitutes a hardship upon the development of the land. The commission members explained that the granting of a use variance is based upon the land owner showing that the existing zoning is depriving him of the land's most logical use. Commissioners said that the applicant had failed to show any such hardship.

GOP Supports Loyalty Oath Republican leadership in Orange County has unanimously gone on record in support of retaining loyalty oaths in California law as a condition for granting tax exemption, it was announced today by Coalson Morris, County Chairman. The Republican Central Committee of Orange County has approved a resolution urging the current session of the Legislature in Sacramento to enact AB 2032 which would place the burden of proof of loyalty on the state instead of the individual in response to a declaration of unconstitutionality of the latter principle by a recent decree of the United States Supreme Court. The resolution points out that "the people of Orange County in 1952 voted 76,342 to 17,067 to authorize the State Legislature to enact loyalty oath legislation." In view of the recent exposure by the House Un-American Committee of continued infiltration in Southern California by Communist subversives," Morris declared, "the current attempt by the Democrat-controlled Legislature to implement their 1958 platform calling for loyalty oath repeal is a fool-hardy threat to the safety of California."
