PASSENGER SERVICE—Anaheim residents will be only 17 minutes away from downtown Los Angeles when new helicopter passenger service is originated. Terminal will be atop the 12-story Pacific Mutual Life Building at Sixth and Grand. Plans Laid for Orange County Helicopter Passenger Service Six Killed in Coun (Continued from Page One) driven by Bernard A. Thompson 18, Long Beach. The accident occurred at 5:50 p.m. Plans Laid for Orange County Helicopter Passenger Service Anaheim will be only 17 minutes away from downtown Los Angeles when new helicopter passenger service is originated. Terminal will be atop the 12-story Pacific Mutual Life Building at Sixth and Grand. In a joint announcement made by Pacific Mutual Life Insurance company and Los Angeles Airways, Inc., it was stated that construction of the centrally located helicopter passenger terminal, to be known as Pacific Mutual Downtown Heliport, will be financed by Pacific Mutual Life and leased, together with supplementary passenger facilities, to Los Angeles Airways, Inc. Robert Sheehan, manager of the Pacific Mutual Life building, said that plans for the new heliport, which will be executed by Earl Heitschmidt and Charles D. Matcham, architects, include a luxurious top-story passenger lounge reached by express elevator and connecting directly with the helicopter landing area by escalators. Air passengers will be able to step into a waiting passenger helicopter and be at Los Angeles International Airport just six minutes later! Connections will be timed for all major airline schedules. Currently on the drafting board are passenger helicopter adaptations of the Sikorsky 55—big brother of the present type 51’s with which L.A. Airways has been successfully flying the local mail for more than two years. The new passenger style ‘copters’ are expected to seat from 12 to 20 passengers with ease, and will provide a wholly new concept of fast, convenient and comfortable local air transport. Capable of making a normal landing even in the event of complete engine failure and able to hover motionless in the air or proceed at any speed up to an estimated 125 miles per hour, the future multi-motor passenger helicopters, equipped with the latest devices for instrument navigation and operation, will constitute the safest means of air transport ever developed.

She added that calls, when begun, will start with 25 year old men and work downward. No men will be called locally, for either physical examination or induction, until draft quotas are received, it was stated. As yet no directives have been received.

As yet no directives have been received from Washington other than that directing boards to begin classifying all registrants. The offices are being reorganized in readiness for calls for induction. Major C. A. Schmitt, secretary of board 135, Anaheim's board, declared much the same thing this morning, added that there exists a possibility that a local office will be reorganized here after machinery again goes into operation. Board members of board 135, which covers Buena Park, Los Alamitos, Garden Grove, Seal Beach, Huntington Beach, and Anaheim, are Hay Overacker of Huntington Beach, chairman; H. M. Warren of Yorba Linda, and Major Schmitt. The district is bounded by Buena Park on the west; Orangethorpe on the north; the Santa Ana river on the east; and the beach (exclusive of Santa Ana) on the south. County office is located on 427 W. Fifth st., in Santa Ana and is composed of boards, 133, 184 and 185. The board was organized two years ago for re-registering of 18 to 25 year olds under peace-time draft laws. Korean War (Continued from Page 1) tions commander in Korea, warned last week that atrocity perpetrators would be punished if caught. He promised humane treatment to Red troops captured. Hours before the murder of the American troops was discovered, Tokyo headquarters reported American planes had dropped leaflets informing North Korean troops they could expect decent treatment if captured. The leaflets also said General MacArthur "will expect similar treatment for American nationals and members of the Armed Forces of the United States" as well as of all other persons who might fall into North Korean hands. General MacArthur in his 12:02 a.m. (9:02 a.m. EST Monday) communique told of the new North Korea advances. He said the stride Get Health Unif For the County First step in the county's proposed new court house construction program was to be taken today when Dr. Edward Lee Russell, county health officer, presents the county's request for nearly $800,000 of state and federal funds for a new County Health center to be located in Santa Ana. Dr. Russell will lay the request before a study committee on health center construction of the state, in session in Los Angeles. The request seems to have "top priority"" in the health center program of the state, he said, adding that state officials indicate they will share in financing two-thirds of a building to cost $438,-835. County supervisors have authorized Dr. Russell to present tentative plans for a building that would cost an estimated $570,000 with the state and federal government sharing two thirds of the smaller amount, $438,835, the county to make up the difference. Present plan is for a Health Center building of three stories and basement; covering approximately 26,000 square feet. The basement would provide parking for 20 automobiles besides storage. The structure would house the Health department, including the Meat and Livestock inspection department. If the study committee approves the request it will go before the state's Hospital Advisory council, July 24. That group decides allocation of funds.

General MacArthur in his 12:02 a.m. (9:02 a.m. EST Monday) communique told of the new North Korea advances. He said the stride was made by the North Korea First division, which had hemmed in the unidentified "Lost" Battalion for two days before it slugged its way free. The communique said another force, probably the enemy Third division, was in contact with American forces at Chochiwon, 15 miles southeast of Chonah and 20 miles by air across the country northwest of Taejon. The United Nations commander said increased activities on the East Coast still indicated southward pressure with opposition from friendly forces (likely Allied naval and air). MacArthur said there was evidence the morale of the North Korean communists was slipping under the heavy pressure applied by Allied warplanes which yesterday began around the clock attacks on them. Some 46 enemy tanks, trapped on a highway near Chohan, were knocked out by the low flying planes yesterday, front line dispatches said. MacArthur said light bombers from the Fifth Air Force performed close support and bombbed troops, vehicles, tanks and trucks with reported good results. Fighters he said, reported many tanks, trucks, railroad rolling stock and vehicles destroyed. Napalm, the firebomb, was used with reported excellent results, the General's communique said. Napalm as a secret soap like mixture that splatters flaming gasoline when the bomb bursts. COLUMBIA, S.C.-South Carolina Democrats chose candidates tomorrow for U.S. Senator and governor, ending a primary election campaign in which states' rights and negro segregation have been major issues. The voters will pass on former Secretary of State James F. Byrnes' bid for a comeback to elected office. And for the first time in 74 years a negro will be running for an office of more than county-wide scope. Byrnes is in a four-way race for nomination as governor, while Gov. J. Strom Thurmond opposes Sen. Olin D. Johnston's bid in the Senatorial test. Democratic nomination is equivalent to election in South Carolina. Also at stake are the state's six seats in the U.S. House of Representatives—although only four are contested—and hundreds of other offices, some statewide, others from sheffield down to cotton weigher. OMAHA — Nebraska counted five dead and assessed flood damage likely to run into the millions of dollars today as the result of cloudburst weekend rains that dumped as much as 13 inches of water in seven hours. The known victims were occupants of a car caught in a flash flood on a highway about 14 miles north of Fullerton in east central Nebraska. But York, about 40 miles southeast of Fullerton, took the brunt of the fabulous downpour. NEW YORK—The Stock Market slowly pulled out of a morning decline today. Early losses were either whittled down or converted into gains. Changes were generally limited to $1 a share or less—except for TV stocks. TV shares, however, broke an extreme of $5 a share and a good part of the damage remained through the session. The 2,500,000 inhabitants of Hainan Island are mostly Chinese.

Union officials said they did not contemplate calling a strike but that some carpenters might "go fishing" today. Recently the AFL Building Trades council negotiated an eight-cent hourly wage increase for the six basic building crafts. The increase is effective today for laborers, teamsters, engineers, iron-workers, plasterers and carpenters. However, the carpenters, who have been receiving $2.12 hourly, demanded a wage boost of 20½ cents. 'Secret of Bruton Churchyard' Topic Of Rotary Speech "The Secret of Bruton Churchyard" was the topic of a talk given this noon by Albert Stuart Otto before Anaheim Rotary Club. Prominent lecturer and journalist, Otto told clubmembers of the discoveries of Maria Bauer of Glendale, who guided by an accidentally discovered old book has uncertified secrets of old English history in a churchyard in Virginia. Paramount among her discoveries are those throwing light on Freemasonry origins and on the Bacon - Shakespeare controversy. Among guest present were Edward H. Siems, secretary-treasurer of the Key System transit lines.
