Dr. C. O. Patterson Observes Business 24th Anniversary "Business as usual" was the order of the day today for Dr. C. O. Patterson, prominent Anaheim optometrist, celebrating the 24th anniversary of the opening of his business in this city. Dr. Patterson, whose office is located at 161 W. Center, came here in 1926 from Watsonville. He was a product of the El Monte schools. Active in civic affairs, Dr. Patterson has served as president of the Toastmaster's club here and is a charter lifetime member of the Anaheim Optimist club. He finds choir directing at the SDA church one of his chief avocations. A specialist in correcting children's severe eye conditions. Dr. Patterson has attracted a clientelle from throughout the southland. Patients have come to count on him to do with corrective exercise and special glasses what other optometrists leave to surgeons, and he seldom has been unable to live up to their expectations. As the doctor points out, "I haven't had a failure in five years and I have never turned down any case as too bad." Among cases he has corrected are many cross-eyed children whose eyes focused over 60 degrees apart. A great deal of the most modern optometric equipment is utilized by Dr. Patterson, among them the perelloscope, stereo-orthopor, squint-corrector, and an after-image lamp he pioneered in the use of. Always improving his techniques, he currently is devising other instruments as well. BUSINESS AS USUAL—Dr. C. O.

But 20 days aboard a ship is a long time. "God help the Navy if we have another convoy like this," said Boatswain's Mate Third Class Roy Wise of Oswego, N.Y. "Those guys have been bottled up so long they would fight tigers to get out." Lt. Mark Ringer of 4084 Berrice dr., San Diego, an artillery battery officer, asked a reporter: "What's the war news. Let's hear the situation and what we are going into." He was told the situation was bad and that the Marines probably would be rushed into combat. "Well, we came over to fight," the Leatherneck said. "I think the boys are ready." Pfc. Richard Sutton, 2786 Fredeel dr., San Diego, was interested in guerrilla tactics. "We have good infantry and I think we can handle the guerrillas," he said. "Anyway, well make a stab at it." The Marine infantry is well equipped with Browning automatic rifles—BARS—which were well known in World War II.

No-Man's City Disputed Yongdok, east coast anchor town which has changed hands frequently, was a no-man's land. But the hardest fighting was just north of Chinju, about 40 miles west of Pusan.

They County Fair Will Exhibit Special Floral Displays Flower lovers of Southern California are expected to turn out by the thousands during the Orange County Fair, August 16-20, when a huge new Floriculture Pavilion is opened to the public as one of the permanent features of the Fair on the former Santa Ana Army Air Base. This was announced today by Harry Macres, superintendent of fair's floriculture department, who disclosed that work is being completed on the new pavilion, which will house 9300 square feet of the country's choicest blooms. To illustrate the popularity of such exhibits, Macres said that from a mere handful of exhibitors previously, entries have been filed by 19 florists and 14 nurserymen for colorful displays. Macres said that some of the most beautiful entries ever planned for a County Fair are contemplated. For the first time this year, garden clubs of Orange county are entering displays, with more than 100 square feet provided for their showings. Original arrangements' designs and accessories will be featured by the various groups, Macres pointed out. In addition, scores of individual entries, offering virtually every type of flower grown in this section, will be seen during the fair.

No-Man's City Disputed Yongdok, east coast anchor town which has changed hands frequently, was a no-man's land. But the hardest fighting was just north of Chinju, about 40 miles west of Pusan. Battle weary U.S. 24th Division troops were almost surrounded when they counterattacked. They suffered many casualties and lost some tanks. Associated Press Correspondent Hal Boyle who flew over the whole flaming front said the battleline could be followed by a string of flaming villages. Boyle first reported the abandonment or Kumchon. Help for the Doughboys was near. Fighting Marines in force were at a southeastern port only 40 miles from the battlezone. The Marines came equipped with 45ton tanks, tank killer bazookas and other weapons new to the Korean war. Arrival of the Marines raised hopes that U.S. Forces might soon go on the offensive. The Marines are primarily assault troops. But a general offensive hardly seems likely until the Americans and South Koreans have halted the red drive and stabilized their own lines. Nevertheless, the Marines' imminent entry into the fight, which may prove one of the Marines toughest—is expected to hearten everyone here. Many a weary frontline soldier has been asking for days: "When are those Marines going to get here?"

Cases have been scattered in time and area so that no area has experienced what might be termed an epidemic. Rent controls will be lifted in Los Angeles county unincorporated areas within from five to 15 days, Supervisor John Anson Ford says. Some families of chickens are low in hatchability of eggs.
