Contract Awarded Saturday to Basich Brothers for $146,390.39
Basich Brothers of Los Angeles, awarded the contract last Saturday for the repair of the Santa Ana river levees, will start work early next week.
The Los Angeles firm will reconstruct nearly 20 miles of river levees at a cost of $146,390.39, according to terms of the contract awarded by the county board of supervisors and approved by State Engineer Edward Hyatt.

Chamber Directors Learn Background of Sewer Suit
Background of the county of Orange's injunction suit against the joint outfall sewer seeking to prohibit the latter from using Verano street as a location of a sewer line that has been located there for many years was explained to directors of the Anaheim chamber of commerce this noon by Councilman Leo J. Sheridan, this city's representative on the outfall sewer's executive board.
He explained that the city of Orange has been paying the cost of disposing of sewage from the county hospital since 1924 and that when the fact was discovered last winter a tentative agreement was reached between the city of Orange and the county on a refund to the former. When the county budget was drawn this year, however, the item was not included and since then the city of Orange has presented a demand to the county.
Shortly thereafter the supervisors started the injunction proceedings.

Identification of Victim Made Through Absence of Right Hand

Identification of the victim was made through the cooperation of Fullerton police. Feeney had been arrested in Fullerton several times for intoxication and in January 1937, had lost his right hand as result of being struck by a tractor in that city.
Fred Knight, 11-year-old Anaheim youngster who saw the accident, said he saw two men sitting on the track a moment before the train appeared.
"When I looked a second time the streamliner was braking to stop and the body of one of them was lying 150 feet south where I saw them sitting. The other man was running north on the tracks," the boy told investigators officers.

Shortly thereafter the supervisors started the injunction proceedings.
It was pointed out by Sheridan that the sewer’s executive board agreed to meet with the supervisors to discuss the matter and set a date, but the supervisors took their action without waiting for the meeting.
Several of the directors expressed their personal opinions of the matter, but no official action was taken.

Barney A. Cravens and Wife are Killed Saturday in Santa Ana Accident
Six-months-old Barney Arvet Cravens, Jr., lies in the Orange county hospital today, his tiny right leg elevated in a cast, too young to know of the tragedy last Saturday evening that made him an orphan.
His parents, Barney A. Cravens, 23, and Sally Cravens, 19, are dead, the victims of a collision between the automobile the husband and father was driving and a locomotive of a freight train. The Cravens family resided on Emily street in Anaheim, having returned to California only about two months ago from Brownfield, Texas, where Mrs. Cravens had gone prior of the time the baby was born. Parents of both the husband and wife reside near Brownfield.

Held at High School Last Evening
An enthusiastic group of about 800 orange growers met at the Anaheim union high school auditorium last evening for the first general meeting of the California Citrus Growers League since articles of incorporation were filed. President Thomas L. McFadden presided.
M. B. Wellington, secretary of the league, explained the articles of incorporation and the by-laws under which the group will function. Excerpts of Wellington's talk follow:
"Its articles of incorporation and by-laws provide that it may operate under authority of its board of directors in groups and in districts. This is done with the idea of making the organization as flexible as possible and giving the members a wide latitude in studying and discussing the problems that are individual to each grower.
"The membership fee was fixed at $5 per member, without regard to the acreage owned, because it felt that each member should have an equal right in the affairs of the corporation irrespective of his interest in the citrus industry.
"This organization was formed for the purpose of working as a citrus growers' organization in investigating the citrus industry. It is our belief that there is too wide a spread between the price received by the grower and the price paid by the consumer. We do not know where this difference comes, but we have some beliefs on the matter. These may prove to be absolutely unfounded. However, whether they are true or not, it is the intention of your board of directors to act fairly and impartially in order that the information they secure may be given to the growers.
"All of your directors are agreed (Continued on page 8)
