Fullerton Wants Anaheim to Join Favors This District and Brea-Olinda Joining in College Fullerton Union High school trustees are entirely in favor of Anaheim and Brea-Olinda joining that district to form a Northern Orange County Junior College. It was declared, following the preparation of a resolution at the meeting of the board Friday afternoon, which is to be sent to high school trustees and chambers of commerce throughout the county. The resolutio nis intended to correct an erroneous impression gained at a recent meeting of the trustees by representatives of the Associated Chambers of Commerce and other organizations, that the Fullerton board was not in favor of including Anaheim. "This is not the case," Winthrop Bowen of Placentia, clerk of the board, declared. "The resolution is now being prepared and will be sent out," he said. Most of the session of the school board was staken up with discussion of the junior college question and trustees, to put themselves definitely on record and prevent misunderstanding, ordored the resolution prepared. Kiwanians Witness High School Playlet There was no regular program at the Kiwanis luncheon Tuesday. No speakers were present to entertain the club, but the wives of the members wre in attendance.

Those taking part were Eric Borchard, Leland Alalp, Hilbert Craig, Joe Borchard and Cecilia Lenain. Following this number, Tiny Bourn Disease Developed In Downey Herd The foot and mouth disease was discovered in the dairy herd of A. J. Keel at 959 Clara street, west of Downey, Wednesday afternoon. The ranch and surrounding ranches were placed under an immediate and rigid quarantine and the Keel herd was slaughtered last Thursday morning. Federal and state officers are working to enforce strict observance of the quarantine and restrictions applied in cases of outbreaks of this kind and they feel the situation cannot grow to the serious proportions it did five years ago. Experience in handling the disease will aid materially in stamping it out at this time. Clara street is closed to traffic at the intersection with Twelfth street in Downey, and from the west end as well All cattle in the neighborhood of the Keel ranch are being watched closely for signs of suspicion of a spread of the disease. Five years ago when an outbreak of the foot and mouth disease occurred in this section, it spread over a large territory and months were required to gal nec control of the situation. It is felt there will be no repetition of that condition at this time.

Suit to Recover Invested Money Attorney States Aged Couple Were Misled Carl F. Burns, Carl F. Burns and company, Claude Corbin and the Western Cordage company, the latter company a manufacturing concern in Orange, were named defendants in a suit charging fraud filed by Iva V. Hart as guardian of the estate of A. W. Branch, S3, and Victoria E. Branch, S2, to recover Edison stock and money the aged couple is alleged to have paid for preferred and common stock of the cordage company. Allegation is made in the complaint that in January 1928, Burns induced the couple to exchange 72 shares of the preferred stock and eight shares of the common stock of the Southern California Edison company, of the value of $2,156, for 22 shares of the preferred and 11 shares of the common stock of the cordage company. In subsequent deals throughout the year, Mr. and Mrs. Branch paid cash and exchanged Edison company stock for shares of the Orange concern totalling $5,800, according to the complaint. The complaint alleges that the defendants represented to the aged couple that Edison company stock had little value nad that the company was not going to pay further dividends. The stock saxemen it is alleged, said that the cordage company owned the building and equipment of another company and that the Western Cordage company had been paying, and would continue to pay, eight per cent on its common and preferred stock. It is charged that the Branches were told that the cordage company preferred and common stock was worth $100 a share. The plaintiffs ask a court order returning to them the Southern California Edison stock they exchanged for the cordage company stock and the money they paid for the latter stock, the value of both totalling $7,556.

Airplane Line Open To Mexico City Carries Mail from Los Angeles to Southern City in 22 Hours Bob Blair returned today by plane from Mexico City completing the first round trip of the new air mail and passenger service between this city and the Mexican capital. Mr. Blair, who is president of the California Aircraft Operators Association, reported a satisfactory trip. He points out the tremendous opportunity the air services offer to California in shortening the long distance between our state and eastern cities as well as the Mexican cities. This long distance and time for travel is the only drawback to business development at this time in California, and he points out that instead of a matter of a week for mail to reach Mexico City from Los Angeles, such mail now takes a matter of twenty-two hours. Mr. Blair state dthat on his trip much comment had been encountered regarding the proposed legislation certain politicians in California have inaugurated looking toward their own personal benefit from legislation. He stated that it was his opinion that if California is to rightly overcome these distance obstacles oil such legislation as will foster aviation should be permitted. One bill now before the state legislature, that introduced by Senator Joseph L. Pedrotti, will, in Mr. Blair's opinion, cover the situation carefully. This bill provides for reinforcement of the rules of the United States and makes it unlawful to fly any but a plane approved by the United States Department of Commerce. Mr. Blair stated that this would best protect the public and at the same time aid aviation. Oil Man Sued On Non-Support Charge J. R.

Christian Science Church In all churches of Christ, Scientist, branches of the Mother Church, the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass., Sunday the lesson-sermon on "Soul" includes Isaiah's words, "Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?" Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily. And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones; and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water whose waters fall not." The lesson-sermon also contains citations from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, including the following passage: "then the sick or the sinning awake to realize their need of what they have not, they will be receptive of divine science, which gravitates towards soul and away from material sense, removes thought from the body, and elevates even mortal mind to the contemplation of something better than disease or sin."
