Loan Applications Up
Building and loan association heads here see an increasing desire for home ownership reflected in augmented inquiry by clients concerning financing of the building plans.
Material shortage is the major factor delaying inauguration of these plans. Especially does that apply to lumber, although hard ware has not yet reached the post-war retail channels in volume comparable to the days before Pearl Harbor.
The end of the war did not take the government entirely out of the building material market. Strikes also have been a factor in continuing war-time scarcity of supply. Manpower does not en

Colonists to Invade Fullerton Friday, Seeking Redskin Scalps
The "Big Game" of the season is at hand for Anaheim Union High school's eleven, and the Colonists mean to massacre a certain breed of Redskins on a neighboring reservation.
Set for invasion tomorrow night of the Fullerton home gridiron to lock horns with their old rivals of Fullerton Hi, the Colonists and their coach, Hal Hopkins, have their eye on the goal posts for particular reasons.
Fullerton Indians won last year's big tilt—and that hardly seems the logical thing to members of the squad.
"How come?" they ask. Hadn't Anaheim brought home a generous slab of Fullerton bacon for the four or five years previously?
Coach Hopkins still stings from the fact that he lost that first season's supreme test against the Traditional Rival. He'd be greatly pleased if victory tomorrow should wipe out the smear on his escutcheon.
Balance at Home
The Fullerton game is the last away-from-home contest remaining on the locals' present-season schedule, and a large number of rooters, young and old, will make up the caravan which accompanies them to the neighboring' borough.
Remaining games this year are: Huntington Beach at LaPalma park here, November 16; Newport, November 21, and Orange, November 30.
The Colonists have finished licking their bruises from last week's initial defeat of the season, when they dropped the league opener to Santa Ana's
Local Nimrods Back From Tulelake Area
Roger Dutton, attorney, and Marion Henry, druggist, returned last Sunday night, following a week's geese shooting at Tulelake.
They both obtained their limits every day, they report, and brought back all the evidence the law allows, of both geese and ducks. Largest of the geese dressed 18 pounds.
They report millions of ducks, mostly mallards anhd sprig, on the federal sanctuary, with plenty of geese, as well.
Arizona to Permit No Turkey Hunting
Paleface hunters, who had planned to invade Indian reservations in Arizona this year in quest of wild turkeys, are doomed to disappointment. Arizona's game and fish commission has announced that, because of an unusually light batch of poults, not one of the regal American wild birds can be legally killed there this fall.
In past years, hunting under special permits has been permitted on several reservations in northern Arizona. Councils of the Apaches, Hualpai and other tribes, together with agents on Indian affairs, have agreed that a closed season is necessary to build up the flocks.

County Rejects Move for Water Survey by U.S.
Expressing conviction that surveys now under way will vide all necessary information reclamation projects of the per reaches of the Santa river and its tributaries, the ange county board of supervisors last Friday rejected a quest of supervisors of River and San Bernardino counties, it join a resolution seeking s of the water problems by United States Reclamation agency.
At the same time, the Or county body indicated it may prove such a study if the report does not give the de information.
The negative decision reached, it was reported, after conference with officials of county's water district and other water companies.
Studies by the state will with potential water resource the upper Santa Ana and re emptying into it, with sp study of possibility of additi water recovery by reclamation work along their banks and in territory they drain.

Beard attended a meeting in Sacramento on day of the working commu of the California Water cou Warner, Smith, Beard and Ogle also have been authorize attend a meeting of the Natl Reclamation association at Den Nov. 14 to 16.
Orange County Prospects Poor As Duck Season Opened Nov. 2
Opening of the duck season found local hunters facing poorer prospects in Orange county than last year. Duck clubs counted less than half the number of birds this season as compared with last year's opening, the state division of fish and game reports.
However, Anaheim hunters who spent the first weekend of the season in the open report that poor results were more because of fair weather, which kept the birds out of range, a Portuguese father—Del Alvos of Guadalupe in Santa Barbara country—a former Santa Maria valley lettuce shed laborer, the process consists of spraying sulphur dioxide into irrigation water before each crop is planted.
Sulphur dioxide gas, produced by burning ordinary mineral sulphur, is liquefied by cooling under pressure, and stored in containers resembling oxygen tanks. It has much the appearance of water, but very different properties.
Is Water-Soluble
Unlike its common yellow parent, th liquefied form combines with water to form sulphurous, not sulphuric acid. This is said to make previously alkaline-locked foods soluble and assimilable, by increasing acidity of the soil.
Ordinary soil sulphur has been used for years in citrus culture. Drawback in the past has been that from one to five years were required for moisture, heat and bacteria to effect necessary changes before results from surface applications are noticeable. Liquid treatment is said to go to work within a matter of weeks.
Regarding southern California's citrus groves, Alvos declares the "sulphur dioxide growth energizer" as his product is described, appears, in early stages of development, to be a "new key to golden prosperity."
Trophies Awarded To Parade Winners Placed on Display
Trophies to be awarded to winners in the various classes of the Hallowe'en festival parade were received at chamber of commerce headquarters Wednesday afternoon and are on display in the windows there.
Similar except for size, they are attracting much favorable comment. Each comprises a silver shaft, topped by the figure of Victory bearing an unraised laurel wreath.
The sweepstakes award, won by the Granada Packing House float, is considerably larger and slightly more ornate than the others which make up the even dozen on display.
Trophies also have been ordered for each of the bands which participated in the parade.
Anaheim Rancher Called By Death

Regarding southern California's citrus groves, Alvos declares the "sulphur dioxide growth energizer" as his product is described, appears, in early stages of development, to be a "new key to golden prosperity."
Citrus Benefits
While conclusive tests have not yet been completed on citrus, as on some other crops, J. D. Haynes, soil scientist, already has established that even mineral sulphur, much slower acting than the liquid product, produces many benefits, including reduction of alkalinity, removal of incrustations from roots, release of mineral plant foods, disintegration of hardpan, hurries the breaking down process of organic matter and increases nitrates.
Orange county orange growers will watch further tests of the new process with interest.

County Rejects Move for Water Survey by U.S.
Pressing conviction that state laws now under way will provide necessary information on information projects of the upstreams of the Santa Ana and its tributaries, the Orchard county board of supervisors last Friday rejected a request of supervisors of Riverside San Bernardino counties, that a resolution seeking study of water problems by the United States Reclamation Service was not given the desired information.
The negative decision was made, it was reported, after a reference with officials of the city's water district and of the companies. Studies by the state will deal with potential water resources of Upper Santa Ana and rivers lying into it, with special consideration of possibility of additional recovery by reclamation along their banks and in the story they drain.
Supervisors Willard Smith and T. Warner and Flood Con-Engineer A. A. Beard attend a meeting in Sacramento Saturday of the working committee of the California Water Council. Smith, Beard and Joel also have been authorized to lead a meeting of the National Commission association at Denver, 14 to 16.
Greyhound Planning Many Improvements
New buses and terminals and more schedules are among plans of the Pacific Greyhound Lines for the post-war period, F. W. Ackerman, vice-president, announces. The company now is taking up expansion plans interrupted by the war.
"Running time has been reduced," Ackerman said. "This means buses make more trips and accommodate more passengers, who arrived at destination sooner. Fares are being lowered between points, and still further reductions are contemplated."
