Nippons Lose to Athletics Sunday Anaheim Extends Win Streak to Four by Defeating Japanese, 7 to 4 Taking advantage of a jittery defense on the part of the Los Angeles Nippons, Manager Joe Huarte's Anaheim Athletics amassed seven runs in the first three innings to cinch a 7 to 4 victory over the colorful Japanese at La Palma Stadium Sunday. It was the fourth straight win for Anaheim. Next Sunday, the Athletics will match abilities with Bill Goodman's All-Stars, another Los Angeles aggregation that is reported to have a galaxy of minor-league stars. Game time is 2:15 o'clock. George Okudo, tiny Nippon pitcher, received miserable support from his mates during the first two innings, four errors aiding Anaheim in the manufacture of four runs. Two misplays, Don Dickenson's sun-field double and a long triple by Jask Graham produced a trio of tallies in the first round, while two more errors and a triple by Sturgeon added another in the second. The Athletics concluded their scoring activity in the third inning with three earned runs, manufactured by singles by Ted Neja and Fritz Gunther and triples by Joe Heinz and Bill Thomas. Thomas, who hurled the first five innings for Anaheim, gave up two runs in the third when his outfielders played too close for a pair of lengthy drives off Nippon-pitcher. High School Notes by JACKIE MURPHY and JIMMIE TOWNSEND Activity of the drama department of A.U.H.S. is in full swing during the Christmas season as production for "Mimi Lights the Candle" to be given for the St. Boniface P.-T.

Participants in this reading are not yet chosen. "The Smell of Powder," another production of Miss Helen Grant, drama teacher, will also be given during the Christmas season. Although there is no actual scratching or pulling of hair, this play, involving two elderly women, a lovesick girl, one poor defenseless "man" and a live turkey, proves to be a hilarious comedy concerning the weaker sex. Characters in the play are Eloise Watts, by Patty Lodge; Lavina Gibson, Jackie Murphy; Ruth, Jean Sutherland; and Captain Hodges, Jimmy Townsend. "The Heavenly Child" is the health association solicitation assistance of Orange County residents. Fifteen sacks of mail are now ready to be taken to the Santa Ana postoffice.

CHRISTMAS SEALS Help to Protect Your Home from Tuberculosis dents to join in the fight against tuberculosis, which will be delivered in Orange county Friday and Saturday of this week. The thirty-third annual seal sale which usually opens on Thanksgiving day, has been delayed on week this year due to an agreement with the American Red Cross which was drawn up prior The Athletics concluded their scoring activity in the third inning with three earned runs, manufactured by singles by Ted Neja and Fritz Gunther and triples by Joe Heinz and Bill Thomas. Thomas, who hurled the first five innings for Anaheim, gave up two runs in the third when his outfielders played too close for a pair of lengthy drives off Nipponese bats. Fred Vail took over the mound duties for the final four frames, giving up single runs in each of the eighth and ninth innings. His wildness kept Vail in trouble most of the time, but otherwise the lanky Anaheim boy appeared rather effective. The visitors found themselves defensively in the fourth round, and from then on Okuda blanked the Athletics with only one hit. Only batter for either club to get more than one safe hit was Bob Sturgeon, who divided his time between second base and shortstop for Anaheim and collected two singles. Seal Beach Faces Suit for Damages Erosion of private beach property on the east side of Seal Beach was blamed on the municipally constructed rock jetty in a suit filed early this week by the Ord Land company. The suit asked $350,000 damages for loss of land assertedly resulting from the jetty project. An injunction ruling to force the city of Seal Beach to remove its jetty also is sought by the firm. The suit alleges that the land company's property in Seal Beach was damaged to the extent of $250,000 and its holdings in Surfside were damaged to the extent of $100,000, both assertedly by reason of the jetty construction. The city of Seal Beach will defend the action, it was intimated, on the basis that the jetty was constructed with full permission of the federal and state governments, after investigation and a public hearing at which the land company did not protest. It was said the jetty was built by the city as a means of protection against storm damage, and its efficacy was demonstrated during the recent storm when Seal Beach was the only coast city in the county not Although there is no actual scratching or pulling of hair, this play, involving two elderly women, a lovesick girl, one poor defenseless "man" and a live turkey, proves to be a hilarious comedy concerning the weaker sex. Characters in the play are Eloise Watts, by Patty Lodge; Lavina Gibson, Jackie Murphy; Ruth, Jean Sutherland; and Captain Hodges, Jimmy Townsend. "The Heavenly Child" is the theme of the Christmas cantata which will be given on December 14 in the high school auditorium. This cantata, which is an annual event of the music department, will be directed by Miss Elizabeth Hunziger, and is to be sung by the senior glee, boys' glee and the girls' vocal class. "Table Set for Himself," a one act melodrama which bespeaks the Irish Christmas spirit, will be presented Thursday, December 14, in the high school auditorium for the Community Christmas program. Casting for the play is now in progress. After considering eight displays of rings, the Junior class of Anaheim union high school has decided upon a simple design and orders are now being placed. Contesting for a prize of ice cream and cake to be provided by the losers, Newman club thespians decided at their meeting last Tuesday evening in the projection room of A. U. H. S. to feature "United By Love," a one act play, at their next meeting. Dividing into groups of five girls under the direction of Sophia Pelous, and boys headed by Bill Heinz, the Newmans will present their interpretation of the play, after which judges will decide which group is the winner. With 52 members present, a presentation of the second episode of the serial, "The Lost Special" concluded the meeting. It was announced that members might obtain their club pins from Verne Hayes, treasurer. As a special feature of the German club banquet to be held December 4 in the high school cafeteria Saint Nick, himself, will present each member with a gift. Appropriate to the occasion, a "German meal" will be served. Lou Morris is in charge of the entertainment. The city of Seal Beach will defend the action, it was intimated, on the basis that the jetty was constructed with full permission of the federal and state governments, after investigation and a public hearing at which the land company did not protest. It was said the jetty was built by the city as a means of protection against storm damage, and its efficacy was demonstrated during the recent storm when Seal Beach was the only coast city in the county not damaged. The jetty is constructed at the mouth of the Anaheim Landing bay. The suit claims that the land company's holdings from the bay mouth to the city limits on the east, and from the city limits extending eastward into Surfside, were damaged. Company K Dines as Drive Closes Anaheim's Company K of 185th Infantry, California, National Guard, celebrated the conclusion of drive for new recruits Tuesday evening in the American Legion clubrooms in the city hall.

However, with than 4,000 persons annually their lives unnecessarily to disease in California, the job from done. There are estimated to be about 36,000 active cases of tuberculosis in our state at the present time, many of them unknown, even to the persons who themselves have the disease. "The purchase of Christmas Seals," Cruickshank emphasized, "helps to support local programs to control this disease and to prevent its further spread throughout the community. It is hoped that the seals will be used on every piece of mail sent between now and Christmas day and because the campaign period is so short that payments for seals will be returned promptly to the Orange County Tuberculosis & Heal association, 112 W. Fifth St., Santa Ana," Cruickshank said. "Early payments save the association a great deal of the time and expense in bookkeeping and other procedures."
