This is the plan advanced by Superintendent Melbourne A. Gauer, who fate last week completed preparation of the 1930-31 fiscal year budget for the grammar schools. In the next year economics are effected permitting a $28,000 saving toward the proposed $44,000 grammar school structure. The budget for the next year calls for an expenditure of $173,678 as compared with $168,526.46 this year. The increase is met by a $5,600 increase in state and county funds-brought about through an average increase of 119 students in daily attendance. Another improvement receiving immediate attention will be remodeling of a residence, owned by the board of education, on South Citron for use as administrative offices. In this building will be housed Superintendent Gauer, Secretary Bessie Renner, and Physical Education Directors S. E. Loose and Adah L. Wilcox. Principal Wilbert Bonney of Fremont will occupy Superintendent Gauer's present offices, and Principal Bonney's present office will be turned into a teachers' rest room. These changes will be completed by September. Budget Completed Budget details for next term include: General control—including cost of elections, secretary's salary, superintendent's salary, supplies and attendance officer expenses, $7,300 as compared with $7,200 last term.

VALENCIAS HIGH MAY Fruit Growers' Salary Urges Even Dist Orange City May shipment of 4,832 as compared with 11,546 binned with the month biggest consuming per result in demand great supply and consequent prices of the season. This statement from Thomas Maxwell, aged 22, was fatally injured in a collision near Katella Tuesday night when his car was run into by one driven by Joe Rothaermel of Fullerton. The youth died at the county hospital at 2:20 a.m. Wednesday without ever regaining consciousness. Death was due to a severe fracture of the skull and other injuries, it was reported. Robert Mathews, of Orange, who was riding with Maxwell at the time, was seriously injured and is a patient in the county hospital. He suffered an unusually severe cut across the left cheek a broken nose, and a possible broken check bone, aside from numerous cuts and bruises. Attendants at the hospital declared that his condition was improving. Rothaermel suffered a broken left leg, the leg being crushed in several places. He also had cuts and bruises. He was brought to the Anaheim hospital where it was said his condition was satisfactory. The body of young Maxwell was removed to the Gillogly funeral parlors at Orange, where Deputy Coroner John Martell announced he would hold an inquest. Just how the accident happened remained more or less of a mystery, due to the fact that both survivors seem to remember little about it. They were interviewed in the hospitals by D. D. Adams, state traffic officer, who was called to the scene of the crash and who took the injured youths to the hospital. Mathews said that he and Maxwell, with Maxwell driving, were on their way home from Fullerton and were traveling about 40 miles an hour, going south on the highway. There was only one other car on the highway at the time, the one operated by Rothaermel, and that the Rothaermel machine suddenly ran right at them and struck them. That is all he remembers. Rothaermel is said to have stated that he did not know what happened. Both cars were badly damaged. According to Adams, from the wreck of the two machines, it appears that the Maxwell car struck the Rothaermel machine almost in the center between the gear and front wheel, and Adams said that he was of the opinion that the Rothaermel machine was being turned around in the road at the time of the crash.

"I never saw such a beautiful harbor in my life, and I never saw such a terrible road to reach such a popular resort," the elder Mahaffey said upon returning. "The road south from Tia juana was terrible, but the reward of wonderful growth in population weand industry in this county at a meeting held at Fullerton Monday night. Members of the Anaheim Realty Board who attended were W.B.Allen,Mrs.A.E.Pellegrin,judge J.S.Howard.W.J.Elliott,George Weatherly and C.S.Sldnam. Phil Stanton of Anaheim who has resided in Orange county many years and is one of the pioneer real estate men was optimistic in his views for the future. He declared that the county is now on the threshold of a metropolitan discovery,and discussed the part the realtors had played in its past development.He predicted wonderful advancement during the next few years.

This statement from Dana C. King, sales manager for the California Fruit Growers' Exchange, indicated that the rest of the year might well be marked by high prices. He combined with this announcement a plea for even distribution. "If the exchange growers will realize that even a light crop must be properly distributed over the next five months and will lend their support, they can be assured of a very satisfactory marketing season on the remainder of the valencia crop," he said early this week. "We have the responsibility of the consumer to keep Sunkist oranges in the markets 365 days in the year." Shipments for May were below their normal run because of several reasons. One, of course, is the comparatively light crop; another is that the valencia has been somewhat slow in maturing this year; and thirdly, shipments from Central California have been light and Florida's shipments shut off altogether since April 15. Up to the first of this week approximately 31.53 per cent of the entire estimated crop for 1930 has been shipped, in comparison to the 17.98 per cent last year. About 17,592 cars will be sent this year while 27,892 cars went forward last season.

D. Mahaffey who for the past three years has been teaching at Lindhfeld College, Oregon, returned Monday morning from a trip to Ensenada. "I never saw such a beautiful harbor in my life, and I never saw such a terrible road to reach such a popular resort," the elder Mahaffey said upon returning. "The road south from Tia juana was terrible, but the reward of seeing Ensenada was worth the trip. Few paved roads, board sidewalks and other antiquated conveniences add atmosphere to the city." Mrs. Fred Backs, her daughter Florence, and her nephew, Dick Melrose, left on Thursday for Balboa where they will stay until August. Miss Winifred Melrose will change places with Mrs. Backs in about two weeks. Members Hear Fullerton Oil Well Surveyor Explain "Drift" Process Anaheim Rotarians this week know more about oil well drilling operations than previously, due to Alexander Anderson's talk at the luncheon-meeting Monday at the Elks clubhouse.

Tom McFadden will be master of ceremonies.

Mr. Larsen, who has been in Anaheim a large portion of the last decade, recently returned from Sacramento valley where he supervised large subdivisions, and purchased a home at 852 North Clementine street. "In my associations with Anaheim business men and the residents of this community, I have found them to be the best of any place I've been in California—and I've worn out nine automobiles traversing this state. I have a family of girls and want them to have every advantage of a good home in a clean, modern city. Anaheim is the best place I've seen. That's why I decided to locate here." While his office will handle all kinds of real estate business, such as listings, rentals, etc., Mr. Larsen will specialize on groves, farm lands, and large cattle ranch exchanges. HAS MADE GOOD Gave People Efficient Service During His Years as Justice of Peace It was generally believed that Judge Kuchel, who has so efficiently served as Justice of the Peace of Anaheim township for nearly six years past, would have no opponent in his candidacy for re-election. But at the eleventh hour another candidate filed nomination papers and will dispute possession of the office with him at the primary election. Judge Kuchel was appointed by the supervisors to fill an unexpired term almost six years ago. After serving two years he was elected for a full term by a heavy majority as he had proven his efficiency during the first two years. He has the reputation of being fair in his treatment of all litigants, their attorneys and witnesses, and also wise in his judgments. He is highly spoken of by the many attorneys who have presented cases in his court. Many cases have been appealed from his judgment to a higher court, but of the numerous appeals only one has been reversed. The business in justice court of Anaheim township has trebled during the past ten years, and it is now so large that only an experienced man can handle it effectively and avoid confusion. Wiley B.
