Advocates Junior High School Here school pupils with reference to state and county aid, such cities as Anaheim would be able to benefit materially if they had a legally organized junior high school." In a letter prefacing his comprehensive report, Superintendent Gauer called attention to the bank holiday, the earthquake and the tax moratorium as three unusually trying conditions through which the local elementary school passed in "exceptionally good financial condition, and I trust that we have seen the worst period of economic distress." In reference to the financial condition of the schools, the superintendent calls attention to the economies practiced by the school board which enabled the schools to survive in healthy manner the final apportionment of school funds delayed by the tax moratorium and the bank holiday. During the year, expenditures were $8,450 less than budgeted, in spite of the $38,532.29 decrease in the year's budget over the previous season. The county's final apportionment for the year was not made because of the tax moratorium, but is expected sometime in August of September. Because state aid was $28.65 and county aid $27.90 per average daily attendance, the amount received was less than the provisionary $60 per pupil, for the 1630 a. d. a. He points out that the school district must raise 30 cents per hundred dollar assessed valuation each year, and may levy up to 15 cents per hundred for building, and 15 cents per hundred for kindergarten. Average cost per pupil in the Anaheim district last year was $79.04 which is regarded as illustrating an economically and efficiently administered educational program. The average cost per pupil in the state for the year 1931-32 was $97.87, for the county $97, and for Anaheim, $80.67. The bonded indebtedness of the district is being reduced gradually, with the last bond issue of 1914 maturing on June 30. This leaves an outstanding debt of $71,000, being retired at the rate of $15,000 per year till 1935. Reduction of the bond held Steaks, chops at the Plekwick. Peter Weisel came over from La Habra Wednesday on a brief business mission. Mr. and Mrs. Theodore B. Kuchel of South Lemon street and Miss Lois Schroeder of Anaheim and Miss Eleanor Kent of Long Beach returned to Anaheim Sunday after a six-week motor tour to Chicago and A Century of Progress. They reported that they "took in the fair from stem to stern" and delighted in elaborate educational features. All in all, however, they were delighted to return to Sunny California, "where one sleeps comfortably under blankets even in summer." 4-H Members To Attend Conclave Orange County is planning to send approximately forty 4-H club members to the Annaul State 4-H Club convention to be held at the college of agriculture at Davis the first week in September. Each club selects as its delegate the most successful and prominent member of the current year. The delegates to the annual convention will go directly to Davis by train, spending two days at the college of agriculture seeing the various departments and the experiments that are being carried on there. Demonstrations for the delegates will be given at the University Farm, such as the following: "How to Use Farm Machinery." "How to Mix a Balanced Ration for Different Kinds of Livestock," "How to Carry on Breeding Work in Truck Crops," and "How to Judge Livestock For Project Work." Also demonstrations in clothing club and landscape work will be presented. In addition to the two-day stay in Davis, one day will be spent at the State Fair in Sacramento. The return trip, which will be via the coast route, will finish the program. This trip is a reward to those members who have done the most outstanding 4-H club work during the year in the four phases of agriculture or home economics, individual improvement, recreation and community service. Over 1000 boys and girls from all parts of the State regularly attend the Annual Convention at the University Farm near Davis. Local Musician Is Booked For Cruise Chester Brandt, who visited with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. F. Brandt at 704 North Claudina street late last week, sailed Saturday evening on his third consecutive trip to Honolulu as a per hundred for kindergarten. Average cost per pupil in the Anaheim district last year was $79.04 which is regarded as illustrating an economically and efficiently administered educational program. The average cost per pupil in the state for the year 1931-32 was $97.87, for the county $97, and for Anaheim, $80.67. The bonded indebtedness of the district is being reduced gradually, with the last bond issue of 1914 maturing on June 30. This leaves an outstanding debt of $71,000, being retired at the rate of $15,000 per year till 1935. Reduction of the bonded debt allows reduction of taxation for school purposes. The superintendent discusses his conception of the cardinal principles of education, and sets out seven which he has constantly tried to keep in mind when formulating a program. These he lists as: (1) Health; (2) command of fundamental processes; (3) right use of leisure; (4) social, civic and ethical character; (5) citizenship; (6) worthy home membership; (7) vocation. Attendance for the past year averaged 1630, as compared with 1653 last year and 1651 the year before. The peak of attendance was reached in 1929-30, with 1702. The district maintained an attendance record for the year of 96.9 per cent, which officials regard as extremely high, although it was not quite up to the mark set last year locally. For several years, Anaheim has led cities of its size in attendance; this year, there were 264 pupils neither absent nor tardy. A policy of repairing and altering two grammar school buildings a year is recommended to the board on the theory that such work would maintain all buildings in good repair and keep all equipment in good condition. This, the superintendent holds, would be cheaper than allowing the buildings to become run-down and make repairs and alterations at once, say five or six years hence. This policy, he states, is in line with the policy adopted eight years ago of making the schools pay for themselves from year to year, eliminating as far as possible all school bonds, thus allowing an economical administration: "This is not a flag-waving, result-showing method of handling school affairs because it is not sensational," Superintendent Gauer commented. "But it saves the taxpayer a lot of money by forfeiting a little 'show'. The soundness of this policy is reflected in the favorable financial condition of our schools." 100,000 Iowa Are Expected at Picnic Iowa by the tens of thousands are invited to attend the annual picnic reunion to be held at Bixby Park, Long Beach, Saturday, August 12.

Waynick Claims Plan Succeeding Declares Valencias Brought 40 Cents More a Box Than Navels; Tells Troubles Valencia orange stabilization is definitely helping, both in Eastern markets and in the results on loose fruit here in California, in the judgment of Red Cross Will Distribute Cloth Collection of Garments Exhibited On West Center; Year's Work Reviewed Distribution of cotton materials, sweaters for men, women and children, and undergarments and hose will be started by the local chapter American Urges Creditors Scale-down Debt Reduction or "scale-down" of farmers' obligations has become an important subject for discussion in connection with farm finance relief being administered under the emergency financial mortgage act of May 12, 1933. The necessity for the scale-down many cases was explained by William H. Woolf, agent of land bank commissioner for the states of California, Arizona, Nevada and Utah, who said that a study of applications shows that many of the farmers applying for loans are in such bad financial position that they are virtually insolvent and that there must be a scaling down to the part of the farmers' creditors to point where the farmer will have no equity of at least 25 per cent of the value of the farm property before the agent of the land bank commission can make a loan. "I want to state clearly," said M. Woolf. "that the commissioner's agent is neither a court nor a mediator but between the farmers and their creditors in effecting these scale-downs. The conditions under which the commissioner loans may be made are clearly established and it is entirely up to the farmer and his creditors to arrive at agreement that will meet established conditions if a loan is to be made. "Creditors should observe that it is their advantage to allow a reduction of obligations in cases where loans could not otherwise be allowed, for, if scale-down will enable a loan to pass it usually means that there would be cash available for the creditor that could not be obtained from other sources." Bride-elect Is Honored Friday Miss Hester Martin of Santa Ana who will become the bride this month of Anaheim's Edward Borchard, was honored at a shower given by associates in Kappa Delta Phi and other friends at the home of Mrs. France Henry, Santa Ana Friday. Waynick Claims Plan Succeeding Declares Valencias Brought 40 Cents More a Box Than Navels; Tells Troubles Valencia orange stabilization is definitely helping, both in Eastern markets and in the results on loose fruit here in California, in the judgment of Dr. D. D. Waynick, chairman of the farm bureau valencia stabilization committee, who recently returned from a visit to New York, Boston and other large markets. "I realize that some growers are restive and that results to date are not up to their expectations," said Dr. Waynick, "but if they could see the volume of Florida and California oranges I saw selling in New York, they would realize that our valencia prorate has helped a lot." Over 9,000 carloads, a record volume of Florida and California oranges were shipped to American markets during June, and at prices that brought 40 cents a packed box more to the grower than was returned on navels. July shipments amounted to almost 6,000 carloads. As for loose fruit, reports show that from a completely demoralized deal in 1929, the citrus distributing plant in Los Angeles, now being used by all shippers in the agreement, has constantly increased both volume and price. Today the local regulation committee is selling more fruit than ever sold through the plant before, and at materially better prices than were received at this time last year. Dr. Waynick stated that the 93 to 94 per cent of shippers in the prorate agreement shipped only 85 per cent of the California valencias during June and July. The 6 or 7 per cent not cooperating have shipped 15 per cent, and the activities of this small group are very disturbing. Growers are constantly confronted with the "siren song" of the non-conformist operator. Every effort has been made to bring this 6 or 7 per cent of fruit into the agreement by the stabilization committee and the cooperating shippers. The necessity for shipping the better grades and sizes was stressed by Dr. Waynick. They bring more return and raise the average so that more fruit can be shipped. The distribution committee try to maintain a minimum price and they sell a lot more good fruit at this price or above, than they can of poor fruit. Shipment of standards lowers the whole price structure as well as the total volume that can be sold. "Too many packing houses are delaying the necessary elimination of lower grades and off sizes," stated Waynick. "They are likely to be in the position of not be obtained from other sources." Bride-elect Is Honored Friday Miss Hester Martin of Santa Ana who will become the bride this month of Anaheim's Edward Borchard, was honored at a shower given by associates in Kappa Delta Phi and other friends at the home of Mrs. Frances Henry, Santa Ana Friday. The honored guest discovered a tabladen with daintily-wrapped gifts in room adjoining the one where brides was played, with Miss Martin and Miss Kay Pierce winning high prizes.

Future Executive of Store Arrives In about a quarter of a century Robert William Combs Jr. will doff his coat, roll up his shirt sleeves and pike in to work as assistant manager for the Stevens-Van Engelen company, following the footsteps of his father, who in the year 1933 holds the position he hopes to relinquish to his young prodigy. The "boss of the household" arrived Sunday morning at the Steen hospital in Fullerton. Mother and son moved to their home at 1108 West Center street Monday afternoon. "I have great hopes for Junior," the proud father proclaimed as he passed out cigars this week. "At first I hesitated whether or not to send him to business college, but I've changed my mind. He barks signals so successfully every night that I just know he'll make an All-American quarterback on Howard Jones' championship grid team of '53. Of course, he'll follow the mercantile businss when he graduates."

Placentia School Objectors In Court Protestants to formation of the Valencia high school district voted overwhelmingly by Placentians last week carried their objections to court in suits filed Saturday. A. J. Koch, Hermine B. Lowe, E. Boisseranc, Joseph Sanches and E. L. Danker, opposing the dictates of the majority, secured Santa Ana attorneys to fight the battle on technical grounds. The case was set by Superior Judge G. K. Scovel for August 18. Petitioners object on two grounds: First, contrary to state law, which holds that a union district cannot be left with less than $20,000,000 assessed valuation by withdrawal of a portion of its district, will have only slightly more than $19,000,000; and secondly, that the new district will have only $8,200,000 assessed valuation, whereas the state law requires $8,500,000. Conrad's Winery Being Torn Down Fred Conrad's old winery, erected about 1875 and one of the few remaining buildings of that era of Anaheim history, was being torn down this week.

Lesson-Sermon Topic Sunday Is On "Soul" The words of the Psalmist, "My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God," constitute the Golden Text in the Lesson-Sermon on "Soul" on Sunday in all Christian Science churches, branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston. One of the Scriptural selections in the Lesson-Sermon includes the verses from Matthew: "Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" Among the correlative passages from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, is the statement: "Dost thou love the Lord thy God with all the heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind? This command includes much, even the surrender of all merely material sensation, affection, and worship. This is the El Dorado of Christianity." Y. L. I.
