On July 8, 1905, this legend Californian strode into the Fe's offices at Los Angeles and he wanted to make a trip to cago faster than any human ever made the trip before. With batting an eye the passenger said it could be done, but the 2,265-mile trip would be an expensive: "How much?" snapped $5,500 "Five thousand, five hundred dollars," he was told. Good enough, said Scotty at 1 p.m. the next day his "Special" rolled out of the Fe's Los Angeles station, on main line, and the history-men run was underway. Just 44 and 45 minutes later the steamed into Chicago's Desk Station, having crossed mount desert and plain to set a rite. It took real railroading to pull "Coyote Special" that distance that time back in 1905, and team-work to do it without hitch. Related In Book James Marshall, in his "Santa Fe, The Railroad Built an Empire," notes that teen engines and eight crews were used on the trip that fast engine changes made everywhere with 80 being considered slow.

"A few miles before the end of each division," Marshall says, "Mr. Scott would make his way through the baggage car, climb recklessly." Layoffs Account For ¾'s of Unemployment Sacramento, (WNS) — Layoffs accounted for more than three-fourths of all unemployment insurance claims, according to a recent survey made by the California department of employment. Nearly half of those who reported they had been laid off said that lack of business or work was the cause. A higher percentage of men than women were laid off, the survey showed. The figure for men was 85 per cent, while for women, was 62 per cent. Most of the men who had lost their jobs had been employed in skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled classifications. But for women, the concentration was in the clerical and sales service groups. 15 Per Cent Quit About 15 per cent of the claimants reported that they had quit their jobs, and almost two-thirds of those who quit had been employed on clerical and sales and service jobs. The proportion of women who had quit was much higher than men. Among the comparatively small group of men who quit their jobs, the leading causes were personal health and insufficient earnings. Among women, personal health centers and local Granges. Many community and organizational exhibitors will be paid for the expense of insuring their exhibit and earn additional money besides if they are successful in winning one of the substantial awards.

The tour, which was a connection with the regional Trade Week, was performed by A. K. Madden of the Long Beach Harbor mission on board a Harbor mission boat. Following the tour, the Related In Book James Marshall, in his book Santa Fe, The Railroad that built an Empire," notes that nine-engine and eight engine news were used on the trip, and that fast engine changes were made everywhere with 80 seconds being considered slow. "A few miles before the end of each division," Marshall says, "Mr. Scott would make his way through the baggage car, climb recklessly into the tender and slide down to the cab to hand out twenty-dollar gold pieces to the engineer,eman and division superintendent, who usually rode the headad." "The time piled up records everywhere," Marshall continues, ending with running 2.8 miles between Cameron and Surrey, in Illinois, in ninety-five seconds, at a rate of 106 miles an hour, and a world record." Pheasant Hunters Return To “Tag” System Sacramento (WNS)—Thousands of pheasant hunters throughout the state will go back to the "tag" system this fall. This is a result of Governor Warren's signature on assembly bill 1132, by Assemblyman Burkhalter, which sets up an additional charge of $1 for the pheasant hunters who now must spend $3 for license, plus the tag fee. The tags will be issued by the Division of Fish and Game in the amount of pheasants allowed per season, which at the present time toten. This may be changed by the Fish and Game Commission if it sees fit to reduce or increase the tax. The tag system was voted by the legislature once previously, only to be repealed when it was found unpopular with pheasant hunters throughout the state, and as it allegedly contributed nothing toward conservation. It was looked upon merely as an added source of revenue. Burkhalter, however, says it is necessary to keep track of pheasants that are shipped out of hunting areas by hunters who shoot birds early, ship them via express, and return to shoot more birds. There is nothing in the Burkhalter law, however, which would prevent a hunter from buying licenses and tags for his family and 15 Per Cent Quit About 15 per cent of the claimants reported that they had quit their jobs, and almost two-thirds of those who quit had been employed on clerical and sales and service jobs. The proportion of women who had quit was much higher than men. Among the comparatively small group of men who quit their jobs, the leading causes were personal health and insufficient earnings. Among women, personal health and leaving the area were the main reasons given. More claimants were in the 30-39 age bracket than any other, although for women only, the greatest concentration was in the 20-29 age bracket by a slight margin. Discharges and partial claims each accounted for about four percent of the total claims filed. Partial claims are filed by employees on the basis of a reduced work week and reduced earnings. Slightly less than one per cent of the claims resulted from trade disputes. Communism Topic Of Toastmasters In an open panel discussion the "Interpretation of the Word, Communism," again will be discussed by the Anaheim Toastmasters club, Monday evening, July 11, at La Palma Grill. This week the subject was given lively play when presented by Fred Rusch, table topic master, at their regular Monday evening at La Palma Grill. Al Holve acted as toastmaster of the evening. Ken Heuler evaluated discussions given during the first portion of the program while Ed Wright was evaluator for the speakers. Grammarian was Marion Pickel and Quinton Ressler was timekeeper. The Patterson trophy went to Page Vincent for his six-minute presentation of "Handicaps." Don Butka won the Optimist cup with his seven-minute speech "Hold That Lie." John Knutzen spoke six minutes on "Independence Day" and C. O. Garshwiler presented, in eight minutes, "The Lantern." Earl Smith will be moderator for the open forum July 11. Due to the July 4th holiday no meeting will be held by the local speech group that night. During the meeting, the announcement was made that Herman Hoch, who underwent an operation at a Fullerton hospital several days ago, was recovering Burkhalter, however, says it is necessary to keep track of pheasants that are shipped out of hunting areas by hunters who shoot birds early, ship them via express, and return to shoot more birds. There is nothing in the Burkhalter law, however, which would prevent a hunter from buying licenses and tags for his family and using the additional tags, provided he doesn't get caught by the game warden. HOLIDAY DRIVING Make the coming July Fourth holiday a day to be remembered, not a day on which you will be remembered, advises the National Automobile Club. On the crowded holiday highways, a moment of inattention, a moment of carelessness, can kill you. If you will stay physically and mentally alert while driving, will keep your speed down, and will always be considerate of the other driver, you will help keep yourself safe.

Water Bills On Governor’s Desk Sacramento, (WNS)—The state assembly has taken final legislative action on two bills affecting the Orange county water and flood control district. The bills have gone to the governor’s desk for signature. One bill allows the members of the water district to annex territory not immediately adjacent to the present boundaries of the district. Present law allows annexation only of contiguous property. The second bill allows the flood control district to forbid the ex-porting of water from the district and to take other necessary steps in conserving water, including the importation of water. State senator Clyde Watson, Orange, is the author of both measures. A baby son was born to Mr. and Mrs. Robert McIntosh, 12505 North Walnut street, Garden Grove, at Anaheim Community hospital, last Thursday. The newcomer weighed seven pounds and 14 ounces.
