The year's program met with the approval of the board and includes two road projects, three holiday celebrations, participation in the I. O. O. F. convention, and promotion of new industries. The first of the road projects to be taken up is the widening of Lincoln West from its junction with Manchester boulevard until it crosses the S. P. tracks. A committee from the chamber will meet with S. V. Cortelyou, state engineer for this district, on his next trip to Anaheim to see what action can be taken in getting this done. Plans for the Manchester road celebration were discussed and it was decided to delay it until the strip is finished from Anaheim to Mira Flores. The other project is to widen the Olive road where it joins Anaheim for the convenience of traffic between Santa Ana canyon and Manchester road expected to increase in a great degree since the canyon road has been rebuilt and the Manchester link will be completed within 10 days. Discussion as to whether Broadway should be cut through to the Olive road or whether a large easy curve swinging Olive into Center street should be constructed, resulted in the majority of the directors favor the Broadway route, which would keep cars out of the congested district of Anaheim yet furnish easy access to the town to those interested in stopping. The chamber will supervise the housing for the I. O. O. F. convention. Plans were discussed to provide entertainment features for the delegates and to see that each one was escorted on a scenic drive recently laid out among the orchards and oil fields in Northern Orange county.
