County Hospital Nurse Shortage Puts Institution ‘Outside Law’ Shortage of nurses is so acute at the Orange county hospital that the institution finds it impossible to conform with state law regulating the number of patients per nurse, Dr. Harry Zaiser, hospital superintendent, reveals. California statutes require a minimum of one nurse for every 12 hospital patients. The ratio at the county institution is approximately 50 per cent greater, or about 18 patients to each nurse on the present staff. The staff now numbers but 29 graduate nurses, of whom five are on part-time basis and 10 are nursing supervisors. 20 More Needed That leaves but 14 engaged in general duties, to give attention to the more than 250 patients. At least 20 additional graduate nurses are urgently needed immediately, Superintendent Zaiser said. Even with the present staff working three eight-hour shifts each of the seven days of the week, it has been necessary to close one wing of the institution, resulting in over-crowding of the main building. Four beds now occupy rooms designated for three. Even such congestion has not been adequate to care for all patients, and it has become necessary to place some patients in hallways. One in Surgery Only one nurse can be regularly assigned to surgery under the present conditions, and should emergency arise, it would be possible to assign but one other to duty in the operating room. Resignations of three nurses recently have intensified the hospital’s shortage of such assistance, Dr. Zaiser said. Two of these already have severed their connections with the hospital, and the other will leave December 1. Frost Protection For Citrus Listed By Farm Advisor For the new operator who has recently gone into citrus production and possibly faces the frost situation this year for the first time, Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahlberg offers several pointers concerning protection of trees: Storage tanks should be filled and sufficient reserve on hand to refill orchard heaters three times. Transportation will be nearly as tight this winter as it was during the war, but supplies of oil at refineries should be sufficient. Thermometer Danger Thermometers should be tested. The glass column can slip or the fluid separate, causing one or two degrees of unsuspected error. Packing houses have served as collecting points for citrus thermometer testing conducted by the U. S. Weather Bureau. Lighters should be inspected carefully, for they are dangerous if safety screen is not perfect. A slight hole through the screen can permit the flame to jump back into the reservoir. A perfect screen must be carefully sol- One in Surgery Only one nurse can be regularly assigned to surgery under the present conditions, and should emergency arise, it would be possible to assign but one other to duty in the operating room. Resignations of three nurses recently have intensified the hospital's shortage of such assistance, Dr. Zaiser said. Two of these already have severed their connections with the hospital, and the other will leave December 1. Competent nurses are urgently requested to communicate with Dr. Zaiser at Santa Ana at the earliest possible opportunity. Huntington Beach Downed on Pass And Place Kick Unleasing an irresistable attack, largely by air, in the first quarter of last Friday night's foot ball game at the La Palma field here, Anaheim's High School Colonists rendered the Oilers from Huntington Beach helpless sufficiently long to score the one and only touchdown of the contest. It came on a pass from Ed Ochoa, on the enemy's 16, to Bill Kellogg, who had decamped from his position at left end to take up squatters' rights in the Oilers' end zone. Bill Koontz pointed the pigskin pellet true, and Dave Hernandez' sharpshooting toe added the extra point to give the locals victory, 7-0. The victorious pass climaxed 11 plays which netted 61 yards, from where the Colonists took over on their own 39-yard line at the end of a punting duel. Fumbles erased two other Anaheim threats, and Koontz broke up the most dangerous of two Oiler bids, when he intercepted a pass on the home five-yard marker and ran it back 36 yards. Left Tackle Don Martinson and Dave Hernandez, center, carried a heavy share of the lead as the Colonist line again proved its brilliance in both offense and defense. Both elevens were considerably weakened by illness and injuries, Bauer and O'Brien playing but a few minutes in the Colonists' backfield and Bates and O'Donnell were entirely absent from the Anaheim line. The glass column can slip or the fluid separate, causing one or two degrees of unsuspected error. Packing houses have served as collecting points for citrus thermometer testing conducted by the U. S. Weather Bureau. Lighters should be inspected carefully, for they are dangerous if safety screen is not perfect. A slight hole through the screen can permit the flame to jump back into the reservoir. A perfect screen must be carefully soldered in place. The vent pipe or air inlet into the lighter reservoir must be clean. Best Fuel Mix Lighter fluid should be half gasoline and half fuel oil. Wicks should be renewed if they are not long enough. Lighters require testing after repair to be sure the oil will light when poured from the can and that the flame will follow the pouring oil to the ground. This will assure its remaining lighted when poured into a heater. Only about 13 per cent of the Orange county citrus area—about 10,000 of the approximately 75,-000 acres—is prepared to meet the threat of frost damage if and when dangerously low temperatures come, Wahlberg said. That portion of the citrus plantings is equipped with orchard heaters, most of which are in place in the orchards, with oil on hand for lighting in emergency. Wahlberg also reiterated that ranchers may make arrangements for extra help through the farm labor office of the extension service, 17th and Main streets, Santa Anna. DEATH CLAIMS OWNER OF SHOE STOEE CHAIN A. A. Gallen Kamp, owner of a string of retail shoe stores covering the Pacific slope and including Anaheim, died Saturday at his Beverly Hills home, following a heart attack. Born in Kentucky 52 years ago, he went to San Francisco at 19 and entered the shoe business. He built the chain single handed and was its sole owner. His wife and a son survive. Burial will be at San Francisco under Masonic auspices. Anaheim Gazette. since 1870. October Harvest In the Southland Is 'Satisfactory' Southern California growers harvested satisfactory yields during October, according to the monthly crop report of the Agricultural Department of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. Mexican nationals and prisoners of war were used extensively and are credited with saving a large proportion of Southern California's crops. Rains the first part of the month caused additional damage to these crops in some areas, but over-all damage was slight and the rains beneficial. Supplies of cars, containers and shocks continued short in nearly all areas, but no serious results were reported. Citrus Shipments Heavy Orange shipments from all Southland areas continued higher than normal. Harvesting of the old Valencia crop is virtually concluded and harvest of navels in Central California is beginning. Demand for the area's lemons was heavy, and shipments were reported at new highs. Early estimates of the walnut crop have been reduced, due to heat and rain damage, and exceedingly acute farm labor shortage. An extremely light olive crop is in prospect. Harvesting will begin in five weeks. Grapes slightly damaged by October rains, still being harvested, and a bumper crop is anticipated. Bean Yield Low In most areas, peach and pear harvests are completed. Large crops of both are reported, with quality very good. Harvest of several field crops was delayed by rains, with dry beans far below 1944 yields. Production of alfalfa was high, and in most Southern California areas, harvest is nearing completion. Winter truck crops exhibited "splendid growth" during October, and are said to have excellent prospects at the present time. Three Resolutions Before Waltonians Endorsement of three resolutions passed by the state body at its meeting in El Monte, October 9, is expected at the next meeting of the Anaheim Isaac Walton league, December 5. They have to do with opposition to a move of the city of Los Angeles to acquire 23,000 acres of land in the areas of Levining and Rock creeks, and against a move by certain interests for restoration of bating of shooting grounds and use of live decoys in duck shooting, and support of the Carl Mundt "clean streams" bill, now before Congress with design to bring correction of pollution of California waters with industrial waste. Members who were successful during the recent deer season are being called on to provide venison for the dinner which will be a part of the program. Directors of the organization will meet next Tuesday night to name representatives at the next meeting of the state Isaac Walton organization, December 4. Ammunition production between January 1, 1940, and July 31, 1945, totaled 17,886,398 tons, the equivalent of the explosive effect of 895 atomic bombs, the Ninth Service Command ordnance office announces.

An idea as to what can be done toward injecting variety into the menu with veal is set forth by the recipes given above. There are, of course, many other cuts of veal and many possibilities for their preparation that may be used to advantage. Warner Begins Move to Regain Airport Control A request that the Army relinquish the Orange county airport to civilian control, or that it at least open the field to partial use by the public, have been made by Willis H. Warner, chairman of the county board of supervisors. Warner's action was at direction of the board, according to reports. The field now is under jurisdiction of the Santa Ana Army Air base, after transfer by the recently-closed Army Air Force Western Flying command. Current rumors that the air base will be largely deactivated within a few months strengthen hope that Warner's request will bear early fruit.

Trans-Pacific Air Service Reopened To Commercial Use Back "out of uniform" are the far-flung trans-Pacific air routes of Pan American World Airways, vital military life-lines since inception in 1935, and under contract to the Naval Air Transport Service during the war. Commercial service is resumed from the West Coast to Honolulu, announces L. C. Reynolds, manager of the Pacific-Alaska division. Navy priorities were lifted simultaneously. Ten years ago Thanksgiving, the China Clipper soared away to Hawaii and the Philippines on the inaugural Pacific airmail flight. At the hour of departure, the FBI apprehended two Japanese sampering with the plane's instruments. The Japs made an abortive attempt to create diplomatic obstacles to the flight, in addition to earlier refusal to furnish weather data. Declaring there is a backlog of thousands of requests for passage to the Hawaiian Islands, Australia, the Philippines, and the Orient, the line pledges to fill demands as soon as possible. Robert Tafolla, Anaheim, and Anna Hurtado of Fullerton were issued a marriage license last week. Anaheim Is Tied For Leadership In Chest Drive Anaheim finished in a tie with San Juan, Capistrano among Orange county communities in the recent Victory Chest campaign, and Orange fifth lamong the 12 Southern California counties, most-recent report from state headquarters shows. The two leaders among the Orange county communities have oversubscribed individual quotas by 10 per cent. However, both Anaheim's quota of $31,597 and the $34,803 raised when the report was issued are more than 10 times like figures for San Juan Capistrano. Next in line are Laguna Beach, with 109 per cent, or a $20,447 total; and Newport Harbor and Yorba Linda, each with 100 per cent of their respective goals of $19,800 and $1911. Santa Ana-Tustin had reached 82 per cent of a $105,342 quota; Orange, 89 per cent of $27,354; Fullerton, 86 per cent of $28,500; Bra, 55 per cent of $5950, and Buena Park, 46 per cent of $6953. The county total is $257,656, or 87 per cent of the $295,440 goal, the report shows. It ranks behind Mono, with 105 per cent; Riverside, 100.41; San Diego, 90.67; and Santa Barbara, 84.86... Ranking of Orange county fifth was made when the total for the county was but 81 per cent of the goal. County chest leaders have joined Gov.

For although we are now getting and installing thousands of new telephone instruments, even more orders for service are being held up (and this may be the case with you) by a shortage of other facilities that take longer to build. In many places, for example, we will have to build complicated new switchboards before we can provide telephone service . . . in others, we will even have to put up new buildings to house those switchboards. But we are working full speed ahead, and no matter what the conditions are that are holding up your telephone, you can be certain we are doing everything we can to get to your name on the waiting list just as swiftly as possible.
