WILLIAM T. WALLOPS MAKE LONG RIVER VOYAGE ON SIDE-WHEELER Mr. and Mrs. William T. Wallop were back home this week after making a trip that most Americans have dreamed about but which only a strictly limited number can actually make. The trip was a voyage down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers from Cincinnati to New Orleans and back on the old side-wheeler Gordon C. Green. The reason for the strict limitation on the number that can make this voyage is that the Gordon C. Green is for the moment the only passenger steamer plying the Mississippi. When the Wallops started there were two, but the Golden Eagle went ashore a complete wreck just before they emerged from the Ohio into the Mississippi. The old Sacramento river steamer, Delta Queen has been sold for operation on the Mississippi river run but it is still outfitting in New Orleans. Wallop who acquired some appreciation of water volume while serving as general manager of the Anaheim Union Water company was deeply impressed by the amount of water discharged into the Gulf of Mexico by the Mississippi. All the way from Cairo, Ill., to New Orleans there are locks designed to raise the water level enough to keep the heavy barge traffic afloat and moving during periods of low water, but the keel of the Gordon C. Green was 20 feet above the tops of the locks when the Wallops made their voyage, and from the deck of the steamer to the top of the levees was another good 40 feet. Still the river at times overflows these levees. Mr. and Mrs. Wallop motored from Anaheim to Cincinnati and back just to make the steamer Toastmasters To Have New Quarters Summer meeting headquarters for the Anaheim Toastmasters club will be announced at the final dinner-session next Monday in the high school cafeteria, vice president Aubrey Van Verst reported in the absence of President Al Holve, this week.

The pro and con of "Women in Civic Affairs" was introduced for round table discussion by Robert J. Allen, table topic master. Royal Marten was toastmaster of the evening. Patterson trophy honors went to Herman Hoch for his dramatic presentation of "The Curtain Rises." Other speakers included Ed Wright, speaking on "Lest I Forget"; John Knutzen speaking on "Features to Come" in the automotive business, and William F. Holve discussing "Memorial Day." Dr. Kenneth Heuler was critic and William Davis, diction critic. Time keeper was Robert H. Allen. MARIAN PICKEL IN UNIVERSITY RECITAL Miss Marian Pickel, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis M.

Milk Price Up Half Cent Quart An increase of one-half a cent a quart in the price of milk has been authorized by the Bureau of Milk Control, State Department of Agriculture, in Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside, Santa Barbara and Ventura counties. The Increase boosts the price of milk in Orange county from 17 cents to 17½ cents in stores and from 18 cents to 18½ cents, delivered in the home. The other four counties will pay a half cent a quart more than consumers in this county. The bureau based its action upon its own surveys and upon evidence presented at the hearing which showed increased labor and other distribution costs. Tustin Theater Headquarters For Stock Company Holiday Stage, a summer stock theater with headquarters in Tustin this year, announces a repertoire to consist of nine productions each to run for one week, making a continuous program from June 30 to August 30. Harold Turney is managing director. The theater players are talented actors and actresses and guest players are being featured throughout the season. The first production, starting Monday, June 30, will be the political satire, "State of the Union," current New York success. Organization of the project and atmosphere will be similar to the successful summer theaters of the east coast, where they have even been used as tryout spots for the Broadway stage. Tustin was selected as the site for the project, because of the excellent theater available and its easy accessibility to county citizens. Farm Producer Prices Drop Says Chamber Price declines for most products, smaller increases expected in manufacture and a drop in the residential building per highlight of the current situation, according to port on economic condition by James E. Shelton, president of the Californi Chamber of Commerce organization's directors. "Dollar volume of buoyancy, reflected by Adeebits, was 5.8 per ceil April 1948. After allowance price changes, this indicates crease in the physical trade," Shelton reported. Retail trade reports show same trend. Building prices sued in principal cities totalled $68,825,000, slightly lower than Marla. "California manufacturer employment increased since April due to a seasonal canning and lumbering seasonal gains were large by a sharp drop in the ten apparel industries to low a year ago, and by trends downward in furnish metal working since Mr. Angeles county had a 4,800 in the number of production workers emitted from March to April, remainder of the state has creased of 9,200, including the San Francisco Bay area capically reflected by incarnation lumber, cement, ducts, paints and varnish petroleum refining." Row Crops Flourish In Bottom Soil Two landowners in the vicinity of Atwood are demonstrating this spring that crops other than oranges, lemons and avocados will flourish in the sandy loam south of the Placentia-Yorba highway. Barney Blankmeyer is supplying a considerable part of the Southern California demand for white gladiolas from a small part of the 10 acres he has acquired on Van Buren street south of Atwood, and Ray Williams' truck crops on the 25 acres he acquired recently at the corner of Orange-thorpe avenue and Dowling road are doing so well he is having plans prepared for a big road-side stand where produce will be sold direct from the field to the consumer. Williams has ten acres in berries and the remainder in row crops including potatoes, corn, cucumbers, tomatoes and other crops. Six men are employed in planting, tending and harvesting the crops. Olive Cub Scouts' Court of Honor Cub Scouts of Olive, Pack 178, held their second Court of Honor recently at the Olive Civic auditorium with grammar school youngsters, their teachers and their parents and relatives as interested visitors. Piano selections were interpreted by Jimmy Payon and Pat McCrory. The Cub mascot, little Miss Judy Brubaker, sang a solo, "Home On the Range." A humorous boxing exhibition was staged by Den 11. An original skit, "Breakfast on the Ranch," was presented by Den 111. Paul Jungkeit, principal of Olive Grammar school and present Cubmaster, awarded the badges to Cubs for achievements accomplished during the last half month. The first production, starting Monday, June 30, will be the political satire, "State of the Union," current New York success. Organization of the project and atmosphere will be similar to the successful summer theaters of the east coast, where they have even been used as tryout spots for the Broadway stage. Tustin was selected as the site for the project, because of the excellent theater available and its easy accessibility to county citizens. Other production staff members, besides Turney are Rose May Borum of Tustin, Norman Mennes of Laguna Beach, and Barry McGee of Laguna Beach. Miss Borum will be production co-ordinator of the group, Mennes, art director and production manager, and McGee will operate as technical director. Holiday Stage plans to become a permanent part of the Orange county scene. Its sponsors feel that there is a crying need for professional stage entertainment in this area and that summer stock is one of the best ways of supplying it. Their present aims and plans extend for a five year period, with permanent establishment in the background. Unemployment Laws Satisfy Gov. Warren Governor Earl Warren has expressed the belief that California now has the most comprehensive unemployment insurance system in the nation. He made this statement in signing Assembly Bill 1328, which amends the Unemployment Insurance Act in a number of respects to benefit employers and employees alike. The Governor added: "This is an outstanding instance where labor and management have been able to reconcile their differences of opinion and join in the enactment of statute that will accomplish the objectives of both." The legislation was supported by an outstanding cross-section of industrial and labor organizations, including the State Chamber of Commerce, State Federation of Labor, Agricultural Council, California Retailers Association, San Francisco Employers' Council, and the Merchants and Manufacturers' Association of Los Angeles. Piano selections were interpreted by Jimmy Payon and Pat McCrory. The Cub mascot, little Miss Judy Brubaker, sang a solo, "Home On the Range." A humorous boxing exhibition was staged by Den 11. An original skit, "Breakfast on the Ranch," was presented by Den 111.

The legislation was supported by an outstanding cross-section of industrial and labor organizations, including the State Chamber of Commerce, State Federation of Labor, Agricultural Council, California Retailers Association, San Francisco Employers' Council, and the Merchants and Manufacturers' Association of Los Angeles. Principal provisions of the bill are as follows: 1. An extension of maximum unemployment benefits from $20 per week to $25 per week. 2. An extension of the maximum benefit period from 23.4 weeks to a total of 26 weeks. 3.

Provision that not more than 18 weeks' benefit for any employee shall be charged against the employer's experience rating account. A. J. SCHUTTE LEAVES FOR RED CROSS CONFERENCE A. J. Schutte, fund chairman of the Anaheim chapter of the American Red Cross, left Tuesday night for the national Red Cross convention in Cleveland, Ohio. He was sent by request from the area office in San Francisco to represent the small chapters of the Pacific area which includes eleven states. Farm Products Prices Drop Says Chamber Price declines for more farm products, smaller increase than expected in manufacturing activity and a drop in the number of residential building permits are highlights of the current California situation, according to the report on economic conditions made by James E. Shelton, first vice president of the California State Chamber of Commerce, to that organization's directors. "Dollar volume of business activity, reflected by April bank debits, was 5.8 per cent above April 1946. After allowance for price changes, this indicates a decrease in the physical volume of trade," Shelton reported. "Current retail trade reports show this same trend. Building permits issued in principal cities in April totalled $68,825,000, which is slightly lower than March. "California manufacturing employment increased slightly in April due to a seasonal rise in canning and lumbering. These seasonal gains were largely offset by a sharp drop in the textile and apparel industries to levels below a year ago, and by continued trends downward in furniture and metal working since March. Los Angeles county had a drop of 4,800 in the number of factory production workers employed from March to April, while the remainder of the state had an increase of 9,200, including 4,100 in the San Francisco Bay area, principally reflected by increases in canning, lumber, cement, clay products, paints and varnishes, and petroleum refining."
