Forty student actors have been drilling hard for months for the exacting roles of this pageant of France in the romantic days of Richelieu and D'Artagnan. Michael Casey is cast in the title role and plays Cyrano with gusto. The part calls for expert fencing, humor, pathos and lovemaking. It is the story of a proud and talented man who was cursed with an extremely large nose. Living in the 17th century when men fought duels over trivial details, Cyrano had killed many men who much as looked at his falls hopelessly in love, beautiful girl, Roxanne, by Marilyn Burhs, but of his nose does not pre-make his love known to marries her to a friend, played by Bob Cadman.

Kuchel. The controller said the cash excess over current obligations totaled $20,673,642 at the close of business April 30, and this sum excludes revenue restricted to a specific purpose, such as highway monies. During the first 10 months of the fiscal year, the state received $433,965,231 in unrestricted revenues, which represented an increase of $24,473,925, or 5.98 per cent, over the corresponding period a year ago. Reflecting California's increasing population and sustained buying power, the state's income from retail sales and use taxes jumped $18,221,384 during the first 10 months of the year when $251,-770,016 were collected, and accounted for by the controller's office. Other sources of revenue showing increases included: Personal income taxes, 9.98 per cent; insurance companies tax, 13.39 per cent; interest on investments and treasury deposits, 30.49 per cent; private car tax, 17.53 per cent and sundry other revenue, 2.5 per cent. Some decreases were recorded for the period, principally in the state's liquor tax, which dropped $1,322,613, or 9.49 per cent. Inheritance taxes showed a decrease of 4.8 per cent bank and securities. WATER POLLUTION E The Santa Ana Regional Water Pollution Control Board, with its organizational work nearing completion, is now in a position to give careful consideration to all water pollution and water nuisance problems in this area, according to Horace P. Hinckley, Redlands, chairman. The board was set up following sweeping state legislation adopted in 1949 and is one of nine similar bodies in the state charged with over all supervision of sewage and industrial waste disposal which may pollute underground or surface waters or creat a nuisance. The Santa Ana Region comprises the entire watershed of the Santa Ana River, whose waters support directly or indirectly a population of a half-million. New Philosophy The control of water quality by unpaid local boards is a new philosophy in this state, according to Hinckley, and replaces a system of centralized control formerly in operation. This change is largely the result of an exhaustive study by an interim assembly committee, headed by Randal F. Dickey of Alameda. This committee is still in existence and is making further studies of both water and air pollution. "We as a board will approach all problems in this region according to the law and the intent of the legislature," Hinckley stated. "We realize that serious questions involving local government jurisdictions and districts may be given to us to resolve. We feel that the legislature, knowing that in many cases of this kind economic factors outweigh strictly technical questions, has created of domestic water supply other conditions involved actual hazard to the public has been given by the local and state health However, all situations actual or possible water and water nuisances are referred to our board, then take the necessary insure cooperation of mental bodies having junctions lated city and county and existing state laws affected by the establishment this board. We expect to act as a clearing house ordinating body and those problems which involve an actual health which are not being relied upon ordinances or law." "Since the preservation underground and surplus supply for irrigation is importance in this naturally will give our highest priority. We preciate our attention to any condition which pair the quality of water a nuisance through the sewage or industrial w operates the typesetting Mr. (left), who is in his second practice keyboard.

Some decreases were recorded for the period, principally in the state's liquor tax, which dropped $1,322,613, or 9.49 per cent. Inheritance taxes showed a decrease of 4.8 per cent; bank and corporation franchise and income tax, 0.68 per cent; gift tax, 27.10 per cent; royalties and other revenues from state lands, 28.79 per cent. No moneys from pari-mutuel fees were credited to the general fund this year as the result of legislative action in assigning this income for special purposes. Total government cost expenditures, which also reflect the state's increase in population, and the charges fixed by the state legislature, showed an 11.79 per cent increase for the first 10 months of the year. Total cost expenditures for the period, said Kuchel, were $478,209,623, or an increase of $50,450,533 over the preceding fiscal period. Kuchel, who is responsible for maintaining the accounts of special funds as well as the general fund, reported increases in all revenues for highway purposes. "We as a board will approach all problems in this region according to the law and the intent of the legislature," Hinckley stated. "We realize that serious questions involving local government jurisdictions and districts may be given to us to resolve. We feel that the legislature, knowing that in many cases of this kind economic factors outweigh strictly technical questions, has created these regional boards to furnish the machinery for the most equitable solution of local problems. The membership of our board, comprising as it does representatives of city government, county government, irrigated agriculture, industry, and water company administration, is sufficiently broad to accomplish this purpose."

Trade in Anaheim and save. of domestic water supplies and other conditions involving an actual hazard to the public health has been given by the new law to local and state health officers. However, all situations involving actual or possible water pollution and water nuisances are to be referred to our board, which will then take the necessary steps to insure cooperation of all governmental bodies having jurisdiction. The actual enforcement of related city and county ordinances and existing state laws will not be affected by the establishment of this board. We expect, rather, to act as a clearing house and coordinating body and to work on those problems which do not involve an actual health hazard and which are not being regulated by other ordinances or laws. "Since the preservation of our underground and surface water supply for irrigation is of extreme importance in this region, we naturally will give this matter our highest priority. We will appreciate our attention being called to any condition which may impair the quality of water or create a nuisance through the disposal of sewage or industrial waste." Entire Watershed The enabling legislation setting up the regional boards established the Santa Ana Region as the "entire watershed of the Santa Ana River," a strict interpretation of which would exclude considerable portions of Orange county. However, since the board feels that the problems of the entire Orange county water basin are identical with those of the surface watershed of the river in that county, steps are presently being taken toward including all of the basin within the region. This is being done in cooperation with the boards of the Los Angeles and San Diego regions. Other members of the board besides Hinckley, who is general manager of the Bear Valley Mutual Water Company, are: A. W. Walker, San Bernardino county, W. E. Wybourn, Food Machinery Corp., Riverside and Walter R. Schmid, farmer, Garden Grove. Offices of the board are being established at 325 N. Broadway, Santa Ana, with Paul G. Brown as executive officer. Farm income in the 11 Western states declined in the first quarter of the year, following the national trend. Department of Agriculture figures place the Western region's total of cash receipts from marketings for the three months at $812,023,000. This compares with $947,483,000 in the first quarter of 1949.

Garbage Boy Bows With Queen; 'Canned' BEBINGTON, England (AP) — Bebington's Town Council tonight takes up the future of Sidney Cooper the garbage collector who was fired for sharing a limelight intended only for Queen Elizabeth. The Queen passed through this town of 40,000 on May 3, enroute to launch the aircraft carrier Ark Royal. Cooper's bright orange garbage wagon followed the monarch's motorcade for more than a mile. Cheers from the crowd brought bows of acknowledgment from three other garbage collectors on the back of the wagon. The town health committee fired Cooper, 46-year old father of eight and a garbage man for 17 years. He appealed against the dismissal, which also deprived him of pension rights. Cooper admitted he had joined the Queen's parade but said he took no bows. He said he wasn't responsible for what the men behind him did. They were suspended from work for a week. The local branch of the Labor party said it would ask the Queen herself to intercede if Cooper's dismissal was upheld by the Council.
