COLONY QUIPS There follows a brief essay on the sewage disposal problem that has confronted the cities of Orange county and the steps they have taken to solve that most important problem. Today the four cities are not alone in this undertaking as they have been joined by sanitary districts and other smaller communities. There are also others clamoring to get in the group so as to have a place for their waste. As the present lines are running to capacity nothing can be done for them by the Joint Outfall sewer board. Seeing this situation the board of Supervisors recently appropriated money to make a survey of the condition of sewage disposal as it affects the whole county. But that is another story and we will try to get that out of our system in the near future. There will first be one about the present day operation of our sewer system. The one that follows goes back into a little of the history. About the time the citizens of Anaheim were having their cesspools fill up regularly without giving any advance notice the city fathers went out and bought some property west of town and made it into a 'sewer farm.' This 'farm' was put into operation around 1914 and the three other cities, Fullerton, Orange and Santa Ana, were doing the same thing about the same time. The land in the 'farm' soon became saturated and the scent wafted in by the breezes was not exactly like that coming from an orange orchard in 'Asia' Topic for Final Winter Forum Series Culminating the winter series of Anaheim's foru mlectures will be a discussion of "The Coming Drama in Asia" by Richard Atkinson next Monday night at 7:30 o'clock at Anaheim Union high school. Having traveled extensively in Asia, Atkinson believes that we face a new Orient eager for friendship and trade. He has sailed the Yangtse River, visited China's great cities and toured the fruitful lands of Manchuria. His travels have given him an unusual opportunity to study China's many problems. The British, Chineses, Russians, Arabs and other national and religious groups are preparing to play their parts in the revival of ancient Asia, he stated. He brings a fascinating story of these various peoples who comprise more than half the earth's population. The lecture will be an objective preview of the next great development in history. City Council Discusses Bus Depot Problem The highlight of the city council meeting Tuesday night was presentation of the recommendations of the Chamber of Commerce in the matter of the Angeles street bus stop. Work in conjunction with all interested parties, the Transit committee headed by Leavitt Ford; the Parking and Traffic committee, with Gene Mahaffey as chairman; the Public Safety, Health Welfare committee, headed Glen Hapes, presented to council their findings in the evaluation and a proposed solution. Considerable discussion followed the reading of the plan, which called for use of the alley for loading and unloading during winters and loading and unloading next to Richfield station after p.m. and on holidays. In order to make use of the alley, it was recommended that certain Orange County Builders Study Rental Program Inaugurating a program designed to give the veteran adequate living accommodations, the Orange County Builders Exchange, in conjunction with the Federal Housing Administration, met yesterday at the Spurgeon school in Santa Ana. All branches of the building industry, including labor, contractors, veterans' groups, and lending institutions, were represented at this meeting. Various phases of building were discussed as well as the possibilities of rental housing as set forth in the FHA rental housing program. The FHA is mobilizing all its forces to assist private industry to produce in large volume new rental units to rent to veterans, stated LeRoy Burns, president of the Orange County Board of Realtors. The government program allows builders to finance houses of one to four units, provide for FHA insured mortgage loans running for 25 years, and at a four per cent interest rate, plus the usual one-half of one per cent insurance premium. Eight or more units in aproject travel have given him an unusual opportunity to study China's many problems. The British, Chineses, Russians, Arabs and other national and religious groups are preparing to play their parts in the revival of ancient Asia, he stated. He brings a fascinating story of these various peoples who comprise more than half the earth's population. The lecture will be an objective preview of the next great development in history. Atkinson has made a special study of the Orient and other parts of the world, with emphasis on international relations. He was one of a small group sent to Russia on a mission of friendship, and he witnessed the Bolshevik Revolution there. He was also a member of an American press commission covering France, Germany and other European countries. He has close contacts in governmental circles in the United States, England, Canada and other countries. Considerable discussion followed the reading of the plan, which called for use of the alley for lodging and unloading during winters and loading and unloading next to Richfield station after midnight. It p.m. and on holidays. In order to make use of the alley, it was recommended that certain provisions be made to allow big buses easy ingress and egress. One point of dissension in the plan cancerned the use of two different stops, one for weekdays and one for nights and holidays. Both the council and the chamber of commerce believed that only one pick-up area should be made use of, but the chamber representative pointed out that bus company refused to pick passengers in the alley unless there was a man on duty at the bus station, and since the depot is independently operated by local interests, it may not possible to keep the depot open during the night hours. Efforts are being made to arrive at some equitable solution to the problem, and if is hoped that a settlement will be reached within the next few days. There will be a public hearing March 11 at 8:00 p.m. for approval and adoption of base maps streets and highways of city, and approval and adoption of basemap for land use of city as a proved by the planning commission. On the same date will be the third hearing in the matter of the zoning of the Kirven annexion. Variance in zoning was granted to Wm. F. Smith to use the second story of the garage at 734 Clementine for guest room rumpus room. Frank T. Marino was granted variance in zoning to operate sand pit at 900 North Loara Road. Former Colonist Star Will Pitch For Anaheim Team One of Anaheim's star athletes will pitch for the Anaheim club, announced general manager Henry L. Cohn as he told of his signing of George Mene, of 6 South Clementine street. Merit popular Fullerton Junior College student, was an outstanding athlete at Anaheim High school. Health Department and the coast cities were putting up a strong objection to this method of handling sewage. Something had to be done so in 1927 the line was extended 3100 feet into the ocean to where the water was 35 feet deep. At the same time an additional screening plant was constructed. These two steps were adequate to take care of the amount of sewage received at that time. From time to time the cast iron line running into the ocean has developed leaks together with two major breaks that were caused by derelict boats breaking their cables and coming into shore. These have been a major source of trouble and expense to the operating crew. Engineer Lemcke says it is his recommendation that when a new line is run out to sea that it be buried in the sand instead of being simply laid on the bottom. We now come to the flood of 1938 which needs no recalling to those of us who lived here at the time. Most of the sewer lines from Garden Grove to the ocean were taken out by that disaster. The screening plant was a shambles and the whole outlook was mighty dark. However, the lines were gotten back into working order and plans laid to rig up some settling basins at the beach end. This did not find much enthusiasm with the beach cities and Huntington Beach raised such a loud squawk that the State Health Department came into the picture. The Health Department then cancelled the permit of the Joint Outfall to put sewage into the ocean pending the construction of adequate treatment plants. Our treatment plant was started in 1940 and now is in full operation. The sewage is there digested and what remains to be put into the ocean is very nearly clear water. The world's citrus production is estimated at 314,000,000 boxes for 1946 as compared with 116,-000,000 in 1939. The government program allows builders to finance houses of one to four units, provide for FHA insured mortgage loans running for 25 years, and at a four per cent interest rate, plus the usual one-half of one per cent insurance premium. Eight or more units in an project may be financed with 90 per cent FHA insured mortgages, and for terms as long as 33 years, it was announced. Glen Anderson, president of the Orange County Builders Exchange, opened the meeting with a welcoming address to those in attendance. Following his talk the program began, with talks being given on subjects of interest by the following: William Tway, director of Orange Co. Builders Exchange, "The Housing Problem In Orange County;" Dale Heinley, chairman of veterans housing committee of Orange county, "The Veteran's Housing Need;" John McGovern, "Rental Housing for Veterans"; James H. Atkinson, locality expider, Federal Housing Administration, "Rental Housing for Veterans"; Michael Dowling, financial representative of the Federal Housing Adminstration; "Rental Housing Through Conversion;" H. V. Davidson, administrative officer, FHA, "Rental Housing Aids for One-to-Four Family Units;" and Belden Morgan, administrative officer, FHA, "Production of Large Scale Rental Units." The meeting closed with a panel discussion, with panel members Atkinson, Dowling, Davidson, Morgan, and the following FHA experts: chief underwriter H. R. Thompson, chief valuator John W. Salmon, land plan consultant Ken F. Mitchell, chief mortgage credit examiner Grange S. Thatcher, and chief construction examiner Fred W. Stott. One of Anaheim's star athletes will pitch for the Anaheim baseball club, announced general manager Henry L. Cohn as he told of his signing of George Mene, of South Clementine street. Men popular Fullerton Junior College student, was an outstanding athlete at Anaheim High school where he starred for the Colonists in baseball, basketball, and football. For four straight years pitched for the Colonist's baseball team. His demonstration of mount technique was so good during baseball school at Long Beach Recreation Park that Manager Jack Rothroew quickly put him under contract with the team. George comes from a baseball family, his brother Joe being well known to fans in Southern California. He will be tutored in pitching art by Rothrock and L. Stine, coach, and should quickly develop into a fast, capable pitcher as the season progresses. Spring training for the Anaheim club will start at La Palma field April 1.

WINDS DAMAGE FLORIDA CITRUS; FEAR 50% LOSS New troubles faced Florida citrus growers following the freeze of two weeks ago as high winds swept through the citrus regions last Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, doing widespread damage. Since one effect of the freeze was to considerably de-foliate the trees, there was very little resistance offered the sweeping winds and fruit was being blown off to a severe degree. As a result, first estimates of Florida's crop loss are being sharply revised every day, and it is now apparent, according to reliable sources, that the mid-season orange crop is almost a total loss. The valencia report is also becoming more serious. The prevailing opinion among Florida shippers to about the same level as the preceding week. The average returns were considerably above any period since the holiday season, however. The Saturday holiday cut into pear as concert soloists musical portion of the phone will be Massey.

By taking advantage of the realty values at this time, the of the building will provide additional cash to be placed that obtained through the e-sion fund drive now being on, and will aid toward the amount of the $90,00 needed for new building. A suitable site for the building is to be located and chased, and with the service an architect the new bus planned and details approved. Temporary headquarters "Y" will be in a bungalow campus of the Anaheim school. Gauer stated that $65,000 needed $90,000 has now pledged.

He will be tutored in the art by Rothrock and Lee coach, and should quickly into a fast, capable pitching season progresses. Spring training for the Anaheim club will La Palma field April 1. N-WIDE CONTEST LONG GROWERS OPENS seventh annual production marketing contest of the Na-Junior Vegetable Growers Association has been announced B. Snyder, of Massasauga State College, junior advisor. and girls from all parts of town are to compete for more than 2000 in prizes, to be awarded A P food stores, and trip sponsored by a nationally seed company will take winners to the national NJ-convention. Ans 14 to 21 may enroll in contest through their 4-H vocational agriculture inns, or directly through Nyder at Amherst, Mass. New troubles faced Florida citrus growers following the freeze of two weeks ago as high winds swept through the citrus regions last Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, doing widespread damage. Since one effect of the freeze was to considerably de-foliate the trees, there was very little resistance offered the sweeping winds and fruit was being blown off to a severe degree. As a result, first estimates of Florida's crop loss are being sharply revised every day, and it is now apparent, according to reliable sources, that the mid-season orange crop is almost a total loss. The valencia report is also becoming more serious. The prevailing opinion among Florida shippers now is that what originally appeared to be an over-all citrus damage of possibly 25 per cent will now come nearer to 50 per cent. As each day passes, the damage can be better determined. "It may be possible," stated Norb Fessel, of Granada Packing House, "that some fruit may grow out of it, but on the other hand what fruit now looks satisfactory may, with the advent of warmer weather, prove to be damaged." "In the final analysis, now that the embargo is over and shippers are processing and loading fruit, preliminary estimates of damage are turning out to be much lower than is actually the case," he continued. The government report, showing some 22,000 cars damaged, is now considerably out of line due to wind droppage of the past few days and the condition of the fruit as it shows up in the processing. Difficulties facing the Florida shippers can be appreciated from the fact that normally 200 cars per day are shipped, while only 138 cars were shipped last Monday and 157 shipped Tuesday. New York buyers report the arrival, the latter part of last week, of fruit all showing more or less frost damage, and there is a growing inclination in the triple to believe that unless fruit shows up in better condition California will get increasing preference. A strong start featured the orange market for the week ending February 22, but the market declined before the end of the week to about the same level as the preceding week. The average returns were considerably above any period since the holiday season, however. The Saturday holiday cut into sales volume somewhat, and another factor slowing down the trading was the indecision of the trade as to what prices would be quoted on Florida fruit after the lifting of the embargo. The embargo might be called a misnomer, since shipments of Florida fruit on the three days prior to the embargo totaled 2269 cars, which was 19 more cars than the estimated shipments for the entire week. But for the embargo, however, another 2000 cars might have been moved. An estimate has been made by the Florida Citrus Commission that 22,500 cars of oranges and tangerines and 7500 cars of grapefruit were completely lost in the freeze of February 5 and 6, in addition to other fruits and vegetables damaged in varying degrees. The highest weekly average since January 4 was hit during the week ending February 22 by the lemon market, the volume of sales, however, being slightly less due to lighter shipments. Desirable grades, and larger sizes are helping to hold the market average high, and small sizes are still meeting with resistance in most markets. Both the wholesale and retail trade have been able to clean up old stocks, due to the lighter shipments, and some of the surplus fruit on the tracks has been removed. Some effect is being noticed from the intensive campaign being run by Sunkist, tying-in lemons with a health theme. Gauer stated that $65,000 needed $90,000 has now pledged. Other business activity at February 17 meeting included naming of Ted Payne, C Frank, Jim Morris, and Quast to comprise a committee work with secretary Dave C in preparing the Men's Prefer Noon meetings to be spent this year by the Y.M.C.A. beginning March 5, five of meetings will be held in the Christian church. Warren Ashleigh will be man of the series, and the singing will be led by Bob C Entitled "The Fellowship of Men" the series will feature outstanding speakers, who names will be released when rangements have been concord. Formation of a Y Men's in Anaheim was discussed at board meeting, and Dave C was asked to investigate the viability of forming the club; the prospective membership. The proposed club, which would be new to Anaheim, has more than 250 branches over 5,000 members. It is a established organization, he been in existence almost 20 years. It provides young men an opportunity to unite in service and to particularly assist Y.M.C.A. in its work. Young interested are asked to co Dave Collins, Jim Morris, or Quast. An election of officers was held at the board meeting, result of which Mel Gauer more took over the duties ofident. Ted Payne was re-elected as treasurer, and Charlie B and Jim Morris were elected president and secretary.

Y.M.C.A. Building To Be Sold; Fund Drive Continues After 25 years service to theouth of Anaheim, the Y.M.C.A. building is to be sold, according to Mel Gauer, president of the board of directors. This action is done with the program of development and expansion undertaken by the "Y" and the decision to sell the building was made at the meeting of the board on February 18. By taking advantage of the high quality values at this time, the sale of the building will provide additional cash to be placed with it obtained through the expansion fund drive now being carried out and will aid toward the attainment of the $90,00 needed for a new building. A suitable site for the new building is to be located and purchased, and with the services of an architect the new building planned and details approved. Temporary headquarters of the YMCA will be in a bungalow on the campus of the Anaheim High School. Gauer stated that $65,000 of the budget $90,000 has now been added. Other business activity at the February 17 meeting included the timing of Ted Payne, Charles Whitnall, noted civic planning engineer who designed the lot and planned the program of off-street parking lot development in Anaheim. City councilmen and business leaders will be in attendance, as will be a bevy of beauties from the Martin Studios, who will enliven the scene.

Moeller this week presented the plan before city officials and members of the Inglewood Chamber of Commerce, and requests have come from the Bakersfield chamber for information on the same subject. Attention, Kids! Watch That Kite! The coming of March and the usual windy weather brings a warning to all kite-flyers from R. E. Bacon, district manager of the Edison Company. "A kite tangled in power lines could mean death or severe injury to the flyer, besides disrupting electrical service," said Mr. Bacon. He stressed four rules of kite flying: 1. Choose an open field for kite flying, away from power lines. 2. Use cotton string or cord, never use wire, tinsel, or any metallic cord. 3. Never let your cord get wet. A wet cord can be a conductor of electricity. 4. If your kite does catch on power lines, let go immediately! Do not try to pull it off! Call the power company and a lineman will recover your kite for you. Chartered Trips For 'Ike' Waltons For this year's deep sea fishing trips the Anaheim Izaac Walton dates are not definite as yet, according to Secretary--Manager E. W.

It is only by settling on a master plan, one which provides for future growth and changing conditions, that mistakes in short-range planning may be avoided, stressed chamber officials. To conclude the week, it is hoped that negotiations now being carried on by the chamber to secure the attendance of some top flight radio and screen celebrities will be successful, ending the week with a laugh festival Sunday night.
