But they had become acclimated by Monday and won the second game of the series, 7 to 2. Bill Healy, who was on mound for the Valencias, allowed the Silver Sox but five hits. Tuesday there was a spell of weather the Southern Californians called a "blizzard" and the game was postponed from 2 to 4 o'clock in the hope that the weather would clear up enough so that the customers might at least see second base. The opening of the 140 game season in Anaheim will be marked Friday night by an old time torchlight parade, and the Valencias are hoping at least 4000 fans will follow them out to La Palma park and thus enable them to win the trophy offered by league president Bill Schroeder for the club which draws the biggest opening game crowd in the circuit. In the opening game the Vals will be pitted against the Riverside Dons who won their opening game against the Ontario Orieols 6 to 4. On the mound for the Vals will be Bill Healy who won his game against the Reho club, and back of the plate will be Jerry Gardner.

Vice-President Martin presided in the absence of President Octave Roquet. Jim Rymer was appointed to the board filling the vacancy left by Elmo Finch who is now traveling for the Langley Tackle Company. Due to business demands Art Heinlein resigned his position as secretary. Committee members delegated to select his successor include Monte Webb, Jim Rymer and Dick Martin. They will report at the regular monthly meeting May 7. The session concluded with an appropriate refreshment and game period. Poultry Men To Hear Famous Horace Dryden Horace Dryden, prominent poultryman of Modesto, and son of a prominent poultryman, will be the speaker at the poultry department meeting called for 6:30 p.m., Tuesday, April 29, at Lee's Drive-In, north of the County Hospital on 101 Highway. Dryden will speak on "Success Factors in the Poultry Business," said W. M. Cory, assistant farm advisor. His talk will be illustrated with motion pictures. The regular poultry department meeting was advanced one week, said William Heiss, chairman of the poultry department, in order to have Dryden on the program. All commercial poultrymen are cordially invited to attend.

Subjects to be presented in the morning session are citrus mites, soil structure, virus diseases, effects of oil sprays, and plant growth regulators. The afternoon will include visits to the rootstock and fertilizer experiments. The two tours will be identical. The tour on April 29 will be for all growers north of the Santa Ana river. The tour on April 30 will be for all growers south of the Santa Ana river. The tour will start at 9:45 a.m. sharp in front of the Administration Building on the Citrus Experiment Station at Riverside. Growers attending should bring a box lunch. Coffee will be served. To locate the station follow Riverside's Main street to 8th street and go four miles east to the station. Octave Roquet, owner of Roquet's Super market on North Broadway, is just recovering from a severe "bout" with the 'flu. He was "up and about" Tuesday.

Warn Walnut Growers to Treat Soon For Increase in Coddling Moth Worm The control of codling moth in Orange County's one-half million dollar walnut crop must be accomplished in the near future according to Deputy Agricultural Commissioner Roy E. Black. The codling moth worm in walnuts has increased in recent years until sometimes as high as half the walnuts are ruined by this pest unless timely treatment is given. Due to the long period of emergence of the adult moths, at this time of year two sprays of basic arsenate of lead are required to gain satisfactory control. Experimental work during the past three years has shown DDT to be more effective than lead arsenate in the control of codling moth on walnuts. However, its use on walnuts is likely to create important "side problems" that leave doubt about its consideration for use this season. According to the University of California Citrus Experiment Station, River-side, experience with DDT has not been extensive enough fully to determine what problems may develop from its use, such as build-up of scales and other injurious insects through destruction of beneficial insects that may be holding these in check. Complications which may be expected to result from the use of DDT on walnuts include: 1. Abnormally severe infestation of aphids. The seriousness of aphids is readily recognized since practically no nicotine is available and, as yet, there is no proved substitute for nicotine.

As nearly as the police can figure, the McFadden car and a Ford sedan from the Tompson Truck Garage, were stolen shortly after the Seal Beach car was abandoned. The Ford sedan was found abandoned on Cypress street next day and on Saturday the new Plymouth coupe was found in San Bernardino. In it the San Bernardino police found a quantity of rings and gold watch cases, supposedly taken in the Missouri burglary. Police couldn't connect an attempted robbery of the Orange postoffice and an amateurish safe cracking job in the office of the Orange County Tractor company, 327 South Los Angeles street, over fats as they did last spring to Roy L.

The seriousness of aphids is readily recognized since practically no nicotine is available and, as yet, there is no proved substitute for nicotine. Although hexaethyl tetraphosphate (HETP) appears promising for aphid control on walnuts, it is doubtful that the supply will be adequate to meet even normal needs for control of walnut aphids this season. 2. Red Spider population may be expected to build-up to serious proportions following the use of DDT on walnuts for control of codling moth. While DN-Dust D8 has been regularly used for red spider control on walnuts, this additional cost would be necessitated by the use of a DDT program. In view of the uncertainty connected with the use of DDT two sprays of basic lead arsenate are recommended unless there is definite assurance of adequate material for aphis control should this pest materialize as may be expected following treatment with DDT. If a grower elects to use DDT for the control of codling moth, and if nicotine is available for aphis control, the following program is suggested by the experiment station; two thorough spray treatments using 2 pounds of 50 percent wettable DDT per 100 gallons of water. No accessory material such as spreaders or stickers need be added. The first treatment should be applied when most of the nuts are approximately (½) inch in diameter. This condition, in the past, existed in most districts during the first week of May but this year general indications are that it may be about one week earlier. The second treatment should be applied approximately three weeks after the first. Aphis treatment and spider treatment should follow as needed. When two sprays of lead arsenate are used the same timing of application should be followed. In this case, supplemental treatment for pests other than codling moth would not, normally, be necessary.

Van Raes, a resident of Anaheim for the past 24 years and former shop foreman for the Anaheim Bulletin. Death came at Fullerton hospital after an illness of several months. Holy Rosary was recited at Backs, Campbell and Kaulbars chapel Tuesday evening and Mass was held at 7:30 a.m. yesterday at St. Boniface church with burial in Holy Sepulchre cemetery. Van Raes was a member of the Anaheim Elks club where he had lived for the past 24 years. At the time of his last illness he was employed in the printing plant of the Orange County News. He is survived by a son, Fred E. Van Raes of Anaheim, and his father, Emil Van Raes of Fairbanks, Alaska. Car Theft Here Believed Part Of Crime Serial The theft of a new Plymouth coupe a week ago from McFadden Chrysler Sales & Service, 253 North Los Angeles street was just one link in a long series of crimes which included a car theft in Washington, a jewelry store burglar in Missouri, the burglary of a gun store and a subsequent gun battle with police in Seal Beach, and the theft of three cars from a San Bernardino automobile agency, in the opinion of police working on the case. The car stolen in Washington last September, according to the police, figured in the theft of $5000 worth of jewelry in North Kansas City. Mo. A car stolen in Washington was used in the gun store burglar at Seal Beach and was subsequently recovered when the burglars were surprised and fled from the blazing guns of Seal Beach officers. A car stolen to make their get-away from Seal Beach was found abandoned between Walnut and Manchester. What is there a telephone strike? The unions made large demands not agree to these demands but extend contracts while bargaining. But the unions refused. We then arbitrate the basic issue, wages again refused and went out on strike. What are the unions doing? They are demanding scores of contracts, which would, if granted to an increase of more than $100 year in the cost of telephone service. This amount is five times our 1946 amount. It would make our payroll alone all the money we took in last year. What do these demand to telephone users? The union demands equal $45 per month to build an addition to its plant at 705 East Center street at a cost of $4500. A THOUSAND GENERATIONS of Acme Beer In the early part of this century, Acme imported a famous pure culture of brewers' yeast from Europe. As each batch of beer produces a new generation, it is estimated that at least a thousand generations of Acme brewers' yeast have been descendants of this original "mother" yeast... another reason for Acme's tangy, refreshing flavor!

FINE BEERS SINCE 1860 They are demanding scores of contracts which would, if granted to an increase of more than $100 year in the cost of telephone service. This amount is five times our 1940s. It would make our payroll alone all the money we took in last year. 3. What do these demands to telephone users? The union demands equal $45 per hour to each telephone bill—a 40% crease in all telephone rates. 4. How well are telephones ployees paid now? Studies show telephone wages with those paid for other jobs or requiring similar skill and trainee wage rates now average above the 1941 level. Here are examples: Operators: Even a girl right on starts at a basic rate of $30 a learning—in small towns, $28 total earnings are higher due and premium pay. There are pay raises, too. At the end year the new operator can over $1900 a year. A supervisor can earn over $2700 per ing a 5-day week. Plant Maintenance Men: The basic rate for inexperienced pr 5.

THE PACIFIC TELEP fats as they did last year, according to Roy L. Hale, chairman Orange County A.C.A. A recent survey showed that while some women had slackened in their efforts of fat salavaging, the incentive of higher prices has returned many of them to the ranks of active salvagers. Of the number of women scraping and skimming used fat, the survey showed 61 percent salvage roast drippings, 48 per cent broiler drippings, but only 32 percent save meat drippings, only 12 percent bother to skim fat from soups and only 7 percent render down scraps left on dinner plates. Lake Mead Low But Filling Up The surface elevation of Lake Mead is expected to rise about 47 feet between April 1 and July 31 as a result of the spring runoff on the Colorado river, Regional Director E. A. Moritz of the Bureau of Reclamation’s Region III said. Although this year’s runoff on the river is indicated at 4 percent below normal, it will be the largest since 1944 if the actual runoff equals the mean forecast, Director Moritz stated. Outlook for the April through July runoff for 1947 became less favorable during March, dropping from an estimated 10.1 million acre-feet to 9.3 million acre-feet. The surface of Lake Mead on March 24 of this year was at elevation 1134.43—its lowest point since June 1, 1938.

There a telephone? ions made large demands. We could be to these demands but offered to contracts while bargaining continued. unions refused. We then offered to the basic issue, wages. The unions refused and went out on strike. Are the unions demand- e demanding scores of changes in which would, if granted, amount increase of more than $100,000,000 a the cost of telephone service. Amount is five times our 1946 earnings. Make our payroll alone larger than money we took in last year. Do these demands mean phone users? And telephone work is steady work—the kind a person can count on. 6. Why can't the company agree to union demands? Wages and other costs of service are paid by the people who use the telephone. We can't give blanket agreement to the unions' huge demands because we cannot justify them to our customers who pay the bill. 7. How has the company tried to end the strike? We wanted to extend the liberal working contracts while bargaining continued. But the unions refused. We repeatedly offered to submit the wage question—the basic issue—to arbitration. But the unions continue to refuse. We have offered the unions a practical plan to settle the strike—a plan that is fairly equal to our employees, investors and customers. 8.

But we believe that no matter how long the strike lasts, it is in the public interest to face it rather than to capitulate to the unions' huge demands which would require large increases in telephone rates. Meanwhile we will continue to do our best to handle your calls. Calls from dial to dial telephones, which make up the bulk of calls in many cities, are completed without interruption. Many calls which require the service of an operator are also being completed. Many telephone company people are working days and nights on strenuous shifts to keep service going. They have been joined by many others who put the public interest first. We appreciate this loyalty. We wish to thank the public for their helpful cooperation during this troublesome period.

Overtime and premium pay are in addition. Other benefits do emits get? Other extra advantages are paid up to three weeks depending on service—holidays with pay—sick and death benefits—pensions—good conditions.
