City Sports In The News Anaheim scored a moral victory when her varsity nine held the rampaging Orange Panthers to two hits, but lost the ball game in the seventh on an error by the shortstop Pannier and a bad throw by the pitcher Bielefeld which went over the third baseman's head, scoring the winning run for Orange. The pitching was superb on both teams. The Panther hurler held the Colonists to six hits, while Bielefeld missed a shutout in the seventh on a single and Pannier's error. The big inning started off in Anaheim's half when Hurtado doubled. Albin struck out, and Coen was thrown out on a bounding ground ball, short to first, Hurtado advancing to third on the play. Pannier scored Hurtado when his single was muffed by the Panther shortstop. Stern struck out retiring his side. Orange's big half was begun on Faber's single. Frick bunted Faber to second, and was thrown out at first. Pestolesi was hit by a pitched ball and took first. Faber stole third and Pestolesi went down to second after a couple of pitches by the Colonist slinger. The batter grounded down to Pannier who fumbled the ball, permitting Faber to score from third. Bielefeld tossed to third in an attempt to catch Pestolesi but the throw sailed over the third baseman's head, scoring Pestolesi for the second and winning run. The fielding was very good except for the sixth and seventh innings when the two nines made their errors. Anaheim showed more strength at the plate, and on the second place, 3 points, which cinched the tie. The Varsity lost 15-60, and the Cees were downed 6-33. In tennis against Orange Tuesday the Gold and Blue scored two wins, the Varsity won 6.5 to 2.5 Tuesday and the junior Varsity triumphed 6-3. In the Varsity doubles, Cox and Bengoshia defeated the Panther netmen, Fotchen and Cardwell, 2-6, 8-6, 6-2. Rodriguez and Hamilton downed the invading Kulpers and Dodson, 6-1, 6-2. The Orange game was the first of the season and Santa Ana will come here tomorrow. Santa Ana is one of the strongest net aggregations of the league and bids fair to turn the trick with the local squad. Other league baseball scores are, Santa Ana 14, Newport 4; and Fullerton 2, Huntington Beach 1. Standings: Orange—won 1, lost none, percentage—1000; Santa Ana—won 1, lost none, percentage—1000; Fullerton—won 1, lost none, percentage—1000; Anaheim—won 1, lost 1, percentage—500; Excelsior has played no games as yet, percentage—000; Downey played no games as yet, percentage — 000; Huntington Beach—won 0, lost 1, percentage — 000; Newport—won 0, lost 2, percentage—000. Toastmasters Greet Guests At Lively Meet Thomas Palmer received the Patterson trophy for his six-minute prize-winning speech, "Mild Form of Begging" at the regular Toastmasters club, No. 2, meeting at the Parker House cafe last Tuesday evening at 6:30 o'clock with President Sydney Pellew, presiding. Table topic was presented by San Demis Lake Open to Sports The Los Angeles engineer this week released the information that trout is plentiful in San Demis lake and the eastern fork of the San Gabriel river. There will be shore fishing only at the lake, while boating and fishing on the San Gabriel fork will be permitted. The Los Angeles flood control announced that its opening will be next week. Flycasters should have a field day during the summer with the beautiful clearance and cool shaded pools of the river offering happy hunting grounds for lovers of the sport. The trout are fresh and sassy, with a taste for anything they're offered. Future Plans Discussed By 20-30 Members A talk by Warren Schutz, installation of three new members, discussion of future plans and report on present projects now underway on the big 20-30 club's year program highlighted the regular dinner-meeting of the group last Monday night at Mother's Kitchen. President Bruce Cook presided. Introduced by Cook, Schutz described California state laws in the 1880's. Members inducted into the club included Chuck Winters, Rees Baker and Ted Steckler, all of Anaheim. Members of the installation committee were John Maloney, Chauncy Woodrome and Ralph Speicer. Plans to make church crossings signs, one or two for each Anaheim church, to be placed at busy intersections, are now being formulated. These signs will be all- by the Colonist slinger. The batter grounded down to Pannier who fumbled the ball, permitting Faber to score from third. Bielefeld tossed to third in an attempt to catch Pestolesi but the throw sailed over the third baseman's head, scoring Pestolesi for the second and winning run. The fielding was very good except for the sixth and seventh innings when the two nines made their errors. Anaheim showed more strength at the plate, and on the mound than Orange, and would have won the game except for Pannier's unfortunate error and Bielefeld's bad throw, his only flaw in the ball game. The Varsity swim teams showed a marked improvement in their return meet with Fullerton, with the Bees turning in the amazing score of 33-33, the first time that any Anaheim aquatic squad has ever come that close to a victory over the Hornets, and one of the few tie scores ever recorded in swim history—scholastic, amateur, or professional. Dale Roberts took the 50 and 100 yard freestyle in the time of 27:01 and 10:8.5. Westenkuehler took the backstroke, and Stringer, Myers, Roberts and Westenkuehler won the relays in 2:51.

Members of the installation committee were John Maloney, Chauncey Woodrome and Ralph Speicer. Plans to make church crossings signs, one or two for each Anaheim church, to be placed at busy intersections, are now being formulated. These signs will be all-white and cross-shaped on heavy standards with "Church Crossing" inscribed on each in black letters. Members also made and donated 35 new "Safety Sallies" to the city two months ago. The whole of this city with the exception of a portion of the southwest section has been decorated with curb lettering of house numbers by members who are donating their time and energies every Saturday afternoon to this job. Victor Ruedy, jovial custodian of beautiful La Palma park and Jimmie Heffron stadium has drawn up complete plans for a concrete seat to be installed in the near future by the club. It was recommended to the group by Fred Klein, editor of "The Breezer;" weekly club paper, as a lasting and worthwhile project—"cost, nil; results, ultra." Dates of importance include a five-day outing at Bishop beginning next Monday for all fishermen in the group, who were invited to attend by Kenny Dougan, 20-30 czar of golfing, and the Joe Sholtz trophy golf tournament playoffs, also to begin next Monday. Bosses' night to be held next Monday will feature a guest speaker from the Calvert Distilleries who will present an educational program stressing moderation, sensible drinking and little known facts about the manufacture of alcohol and by-products connected with that industry. Members were reminded to register early for the educational meeting at Pinecrest to assure good cabin locations. This is an all-southern California meet slated for July 8 and 9.

Eckel County Auditor Leslie H. Eckel this week made formal announcement of his candidacy. "Les" Eckel finishes his first full term as County Auditor this year. He has been honored by the auditors of other counties who have elected him president of the County Auditor's Association of the State of California. In making his announcement, Eckel said: "The Office of Auditor is of great importance to tax-paying citizens. It is the heart of the financial structure of the county and its school and special districts. Taxpayers' money must be adequately safeguarded by proper and intelligent scrutiny. This is a public trust and I have endeavored at all times to merit the confidence reposed in me." County Student Programs to Be Broadcast Here Beginning May 4, a series of 13 competitive radio programs, with representatives from all Orange county high schools participating, will be broadcast from the Radio and Electric Engineering company, 117 East Center street, under the sponsorship of Donald D. Britton and Henry Neyenhius, co-owners, both of Fullerton. These broadcasts will be heard over station KVOE, Santa Ana, 1490 kc, at 7 o'clock each Saturday evening. A $50 prize will be awarded the contest winner who will be chosen from the groups of students from different schools to appear each week. "Peck's Bad Boy" is the title of the comedy series. Britton has written a script revision of the book by the same name. Neyenhius will have charge of advertising. The local broadcasts will be open to the public and seating accommodations provided, it was revealed. Britton was formerly associated with the office of war information, department of psychological warfare for ten months in Honolulu. Phone Calls Are Increased Here By 4000 Daily The greatest increase in volume of telephone calls in the history of southern California—more than 1,100,000 additional calls daily—has occurred since the war, it was announced by R. J. Rossberg, also heavily overloaded during the morning hours and the company recognizes that often it necessary for subscribers to wait for an operator to answer. If the call is necessary at that time, it better to wait than to hang and place calls over again, in much as every attempt is made to answer the signal lights in the order in which they appear." Richard Glover Reveals Teen Canteen Program Already busily engaged with many activities, new campaigns for the summer are now being outlined for the "Teen Canteen" at the IOOF hall, 325 West Center street, under the chairmanship of Dick Glover, recently appointed building manager and canteen advisor. The canteen is sponsored by the Anaheim P.-T.A. council with Mrs. J. Lee Rogers, chairman. The idea of the youth center is to provide activities for local youngsters with a program that is theirs and for them. More than thirty high school members meet every Tuesday night at the hall with Douglas French, chairman of the committee. The Fremont junior high school committee of approximately forty members meets every Friday night with Bobby Hipes, chairman, presiding. Saturday night is open house or joint night for both groups. There are two gate men present on these nights. Highlight of the hall is a spacious ballroom which has been filled to capacity during many successful dances staged in the last two summers and school years. Other features of the canteen include a game room with facilities for ping pong, ski ball, pool and checkers. It is complete with a snack bar, run by volunteers, where cokes and sandwiches are served. A highly successful enterprise, more than 5,436 young people have visited the canteen during the three month period of January, February and March of this year. A recently organized badminton class meets every Monday and Wednesday nights in the Anaheim high school boys' gym, under the direction of Glover, school athletic coach. With facilities for nine courts, lively tournaments Phone Calls Are Increased Here By 4000 Daily The greatest increase in volume of telephone calls in the history of southern California—more than 1,100,000 additional calls daily—has occurred since the war, it was announced by R. J. Rossberg, manager of the Southern California Telephone company. In Anaheim calls have increased during the past year by about 4000 each day. A year ago 12,000 daily calls were being placed here, while now 16,000 calls are being made. Even though all of southern California was in the middle of tremendous war activity, calls were running at the rate of 5,-500,000 a day a year ago, while now they have accelerated to the unprecedented number of 6,600,-000 daily. Increase in population, general business activity, and travel, may account for the tremendous spur in calls, according to Manager Rossberg. "The company had added more than 94,000 telephones to its system in the past 15 months," Mr. Rossberg says. "The largest share of these additions have been made since V-J day. Calls coming from these additional telephones, plus a general increase in telephone usage, has put a severe strain on the entire system, particularly during the midmorning and early evening hours. Calls from noon to 6 o'clock in the evening go through more rapidly than they do in the morning and just after dinner." "Where dial telephones are used it is important now that every customer place the receiver to his ear and wait to hear the dial tone before starting to dial. All types of operator switchboards are..."
