COLONY QUIPS Now that the primary election is over everyone can get down to discussing who the Republican convention will nominate to run for president. Harry and Henry being both more or less in the bag—and that means more than is immediately seen on the surface, bub, the only large contest is who will be the Republican’s choice. Our own Governor Earl Warren will wield a large proportion of power as he will virtually control the delegation of several western states. The effect (change spelling to suit yourself) east still is laboring under the delusion that there is an Indian armed with an atomic bow and arrow back of every bush instead of a chicken in every pot. They still think that an appointment of a man from Indiana is a sop to the west. But when a group of citizens come into the convention with a bona fide handful of votes they may realize there is something besides sagebrush and painted Indians west of the Cumberland gap. The only painted Indians we see out here are of the female variety and the paint is of the drug store and looks good enough to eat. (Might qualify this one by saying that a man seldom gets too old to look.) Anyway the Republican nominee will be good enough, we believe, for the great majority of voters. VOLUME LXXVII ANAHEL Lemon Average Ahead of Past Two Seasons So far this season the Northern Orange County Citrus Exchange has sold 115 cars of lemons. The overall average has been $4.96 a box. Last year at the same date the district had sold 139 cars at an overall average of $4.60 a box, and in 1946 the total sale for the season to date was 197 cars and the f.o.b. average was $4.25. Last year was the best year Orange county lemon growers have had in several years. It depends on the weather in the consuming centers whether this year will keep ahead of last year. OAC Reports Oranges Still Grow Slowly The pattern of growth of Valencia oranges in southern California Robbers Busy In West Center Food Stores Armed robbers obtained a total of $543 in cash in two robberies on West Center street this week. Shortly before 9 o’clock Saturday night a man described as Oriental pointed a small revolver or pistol at Mrs. Loa Viola Tijan, the clerk in the Compound Dairy Products company store. 502 West Center street, told him to keep still and took $44 in currency from the cash register. The store with Mrs. Tietjan and Mrs. Grace Ella King, 110 North Resh street. A few minutes later a man answering the description of the robber bought 20 cents worth of gasoline for a small truck at a service station on West Center street and proceeded eastward. While William J. Jenkins got ready to open his Gold Rule Market at 826 West Center street at 8:25 yesterday morning, man knocked on the back door. All county officers and employees had a nice vacation over the Memorial Day week-end with the exception of County Clerk B. J. Smith and County Assessor Maurice Enderle. Smith and his staff had to get ready for the election, as he has been doing day and night for many weeks past. Enderle had to work himself and staff to get out the assessment rolls so the county could keep going. There are two jobs, bub, that you can have. If you see a couple of men going around in the Courthouse talking to themselves with a far away look in their eyes the odds are that it is either Clerk Smith or Assessor Enderle. Memorial Day Rites Impressive Acting as main speaker for the impressive Memorial Day rites, held Sunday morning in Anaheim cemetery, was Col. Ray Smith, member of the staff of the state's adjutant general. Scores attended the observances. The invocation and benediction were given by Rev. Howard S. Congdon, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, this city. William P. Webb was master of ceremonies, introducing the heads of participating organizations. Abraham Lincoln's famed Gettysburg address was presented by Joan Menges of Marywood school and Mrs. Walter Ross sang a selection. Before the services in the mausoleum, a program was held at the soldier's monument in the cemetery. Participating in the flag raising ceremony were members of Boy Scout Troop 72. Opening and closing the ceremony, Bugler Thomas Schmitt played "Assembly" and "Taps." Wreaths were placed on the monument of the unknown soldier by patriotic organizations. Mrs. Opal Walters sang "Sleep, Soldier,Boy,Sleep," and a salute was fired by Company K of the California National ahead of last year. OAC Reports Oranges Still Grow Slowly The pattern of growth of Valencia oranges in southern California continued to be as unpredictable in April as it has been for the past two years, according to the report of the Orange Administrative committee. But total growth continued to be below last year's subnormal rate. The growth rate in northern Orange county forged ahead of southern Orange county after lagging behind in March, and was slightly ahead of the average for all southern California. The April growth rate in northern Orange county was .023 of an inch, for southern Orange county, .011 of an inch and for all of southern California, .021 of an inch. Last year the average for all of southern California in April was .014 and the 19-year average was .036 of each. The attained size on May 1 was exactly the same in northern and southern Orange county—309 oranges to the packed box. It was below the average for all southern California which was 302 oranges to the box. On May 1 last year the attained size was 288 oranges to the box. The 19-year average was 239 oranges to the box. Southern California Valencia growers could take some comfort in the fact that reports from the east were that retailers were beginning to learn how to sell small California oranges. But there was still a wide differential between large and small sizes. Mary Millerick In New York City On Buying Trip Mary Millerick, well known owner of the Mary Millerick style shop on East Center street, and one of her business associates, Mrs. Grace Bernard of this city, are in New York on a bi-annual buying trip.

Jenkins was ready to open his Golden Market at 826 West Center at 8:25 yesterday morning knocked on the back door. Drizzle Adds .10 Inch to Rain Total The rain Tuesday night, added to what fell last Sunday, made .80 of an inch—almost enough for a light irrigation. The rain last Sunday amounted to .10 of an inch and the precipitation Tuesday night added .70 of an inch more. While this started out to be the driest on record in Orange county, the heavier than usual rainfall since the first of March has raised the season's total here to 7.35 inches, which takes it out of the extra-dry class.

Small Sizes Small sized Valencias were beginning to be a problem in the marketing of the 1948 orange crop. Last week's shipments of southern Valencias averaged 71 per cent 252s and smaller, and the sales averages were in proportion to the percentage of small sizes in each car. If the percentage of 288s and 344s was high the price was hardly satisfactory. While the overall f.o.b. average was almost the same as for the preceding week the average was kept up by medium and large sizes. The average for fancy 176s last week was around $6.81 a box and for 200s, $6.62. Volume of sales last week was heavy, exceeding 1000 cars for the first week this year. The average for all sizes and all grades last week was about $3.65 a box f.o.b., compared to $2.56 at the same time last year, $4.69 in 1946 and $4.40 a box in 1945. Florida estimates were that 1875 cars would be shipped this week compared to 2000 cars last week and an estimated 1625 next week. While the Orange Administrative Committee has not yet given out its figures, marketing agencies say with confidence that this year's Valencia crop will be 20 per cent under that for last year. Lemon volume also gained substantially last week. About 136 cars more were sold last week than in the week before. The price average declined about 42 cents. The f.o.b. average remained, however, $1.77 higher than it was in the same week last year. The average for all sizes in all markets was about $5.54 f.o.b., compared to $3.77 a year ago, $3.78 in 1946 and $4.81 in 1945. The weather throughout most of the country was cool, rainy and generally unfavorable for lemon consumption. This week the lemon market was reported easier as the cool, wet weather continued. Dealer stock, however, was reported only moderate. The OAC set next week's proate at 800 cars of southern and 350 central California Valencias. This was 50 cars under the current week. This seems to be based on the guess that the total California Valencia crop for 1948 will not exceed 34,000 cars and that, once Florida with its big sizes is out of the way, good prices can be placed by Ralph O'Mcduffan, placer Placentia orange rancher, will fight it out in the final election in November. In the balloting Tuesday McFadden received 4342 votes; Baker 4104; Haskell Kelley of Cypress, 1527 and Sydney Pellew of Anaheim, 676. As it has for many years, the county voted heavily Republican. The election was a Presidential Preference Primary with Governor Earl Warren heading the Republican ticket and President Harry S. Truman, the Democratic ticket. Candidates for national convention delegates pledged to each were unopposed in their respective parties, and that accounted for the light vote in the election. Warren's delegation received 16,756 votes and the Truman candidates 10,924. Congressman Phillips captured both the Republican and Democratic nominations in the other two counties in the 22nd district as well as in Orange county. His Republican total in Orange county was 19,247. His opponent, Don Sawyer of Moreno, received 2954 Republican votes. Phillips received 10,376 Democratic votes in this county while Sawyer took 6019. In 180 of Riverside county's 199 precincts the vote on congressman was: Republican—Phillips 12,779; Sawyer, 2116. Democratic—Phillips, 7237; Sawyer, 5152. Phillips' majority in Imperial county was said to be equally large. For state senator Watson collected 16,000 Republican and 7630 Democratic votes while Clint Cary who had cross-filed as did Watson, got 3080 Republican and 3375 Democratic votes. Harlan Savage of La Habra who filed only on the Democratic ticket was given 2734 votes. Although he had withdrawn as a candidate, the name of A. J. Schutte of Anaheim still appeared on the ballot and he tallied 2677 Republican and 2670 Democratic votes. Sam L. Collins had no opposition for state assemblyman from the 75th district, received 7855 Republican and 5305 Democratic votes. Assemblyman Earl W. Stanley of Newport Beach in the 76th district beat William K. Jordan of Santa Ana about 5 to 1. In the Coastal Municipal Water District, four candidates were battling for three seats.

The largest number of prizes ever to be given in the local tournament was made possible by the receipt of more than $100 worth Russelures from the Russelure Manufacturing Company of Los Angeles. Designed for every type fishing including fly rod, cast-net and trolling, the lures are made aluminium in six sizes with alu-nite finishes in six colors. In commercial production only two months, the Russelure is considered one of the "hottest lures on the market" by many anglers. Prizes will be given by the Associated Rifle and Pistol clubs of Anaheim during Sunday afternoon at the casting tourney. The first award will be a model 52 Winchester gun with Unertl ten-pow-scope and the second award, a cantague Red Wing casting rod with Langley Lure cast reel.

NK RIBBONS Proud parents are Mr. and Mrs. Chie Wilbur of Olive road, this day, who welcomed a baby daughter, Sunday, Memorial Day, at Millerton hospital. ROUGH WATER CAUSES CALM IN FISHING Because of rough water, the first charter boat trip arranged by the Anaheim Chapter of the Izaak Walton League recently, was reported a one-catch voyage. A nine pound, eleven ounce barracuda was brought to deck by William (Bob) Wallop, who with eleven other aquatic enthusiasts, was aboard the "Blue Water" out of King's Landing, Newport Beach. Storm warnings were rampant and the sea was extremely rough causing seven of the group to suffer slight cases of indigestion. Seems Nick Wingert and Arch Cavanaugh turned the 'greenest.' Sam L. Collins had no opposition for state assemblyman from the 75th district, received 7855 Republican and 5305 Democratic votes. Assemblyman Earl W. Stanley of Newport Beach in the 76th district beat William K. Jordan of Santa Ana about 5 to 1. In the Coastal Municipal Water District, four candidates were battling for three seats. All incumbents were returned: Elmer L. Crawford, 581, he being opposed by Cecil E. Vaughn, 311; James S. Suydam, 636; and Harry W. Wright, 1242. There were contests for Republican Central Committee seats in both Second and Third Supervisorial districts; in others, the vote was complimentary since there were not contests. Results: First district of Santa Ana: Mrs. Charlotte Colburn, 4420; William K. Lindsay, 4530; Clarence E. Sprague, 4537; Herbert L. Miller, 4577; Joseph H. Daniger, 4615; and Roscoe G. Hewitt, 4388.
