Union High Locker Rooms Completion Expected Today
Modern Plant Gives Anaheim Complete Facilities For Athletic Purposes; Over Year On Construction Work
Following over a year of active construction work on buildings and extensive ground improvements, the boys' shower and locker room section of the Anaheim Union High school will be completed today, representing an outlay of nearly $70,000. Sponsored by the Anaheim school district the project was administered to under WPA supervision with A. H. Pibel, building superintendent for the high school district and state inspector for the WPA, in charge. Started in May, 1940, the project employed a monthly average of 32 WPA workers during the course of construction.
Several units comprise the completed plant; a boys' shower and locker room; swimming pool; girls' shower and locker room; basketball courts; sun deck; boiler and filtration plant and other adjuncts that make this addition to the school plant one of the best in the state.
The pool has an area of 16,200 square feet, measuring 75x60 feet, with depths ranging from three and one-half feet to 12 feet. Two springboards are at the deep part. Back of the deep end are located bleachers with a large seating capacity. Swimming lanes are also in place. The pool, of concrete construction, is finished with terra cotta gutters and top finish of the same material.
Below the pool is located the utility assessment in Orange County Show Big Gain.
The building site, owned by Mrs. Agnes Rimpau and Stephen Rimpau and for whom the building is being erected, covers an area of 75x120. The structure will be of concrete and follow the modern trend for such establishments; wide open areas for display, domed roof and a tower at one corner for light display. Flanking the store premises, on each side, will be parking areas 52x135, giving ample accommodations to patrons.
William Gray of Downey is the contractor; Architect Siebert of Long Beach drew up the plans. The building when completed will cost $16,500, with an additional $10,000 being spent for fixtures. It is expected that work will be completed within 60 days, the building being equipped with the latest in ventilation, lighting and other needed requirements.

Packing Continues Despite Picketing; Few Packers Quit
Citrus Growers Proceed With House Production; Wages Are Comparable
Operations at the Santiago Orange Growers association packing house in Orange were still going full force today in spite of the picket lines that were thrown around the plant last Thursday by the A. F. L. Teamster's union, which called a strike of the truck drivers, loading platform and precooler workers.
Farmer members of the association rolled up their sleeves and went to work hauling the fruit from the fields and loading the freight cars with the packed oranges for their journey to market.
Workers who were dissatisfied with the pre-cooling wage scale were urged to remain on the job pending discussion of their request for higher pay with the members of the packing house board of directors. This is still the position of the house, but it was emphasized that the self-injection of the Teamster's union in the dispute had made the possibility of arriving at the industrial peace much more difficult.
About 10 women orange packers joined the picket lines last Friday morning, with the remainder of the packers staying at work in the packing plant, which normally employs around 140 packers. The majority of the women refused to best in the state.
Mr. Schmid, who also is chairman of the county agriculture conservation association, said his initial meeting had been devoted to oragnization and discussion of the board's functions.
