South Anaheim Zoning Plans On Tap Tomorrow The second public hearing on Planning Commission proposals for the re-zoning of Anaheim is scheduled for tomorrow night in the Council Chamber of the City Hall. Meeting time is 7:30. Planning consultant Gordon Whitnall will be present to outline commission proposals. Tomorrow night's meeting is calculated to focus attention on the Anaheim area south of Center st. However, Whitnall indicated at the first session, two weeks ago, that residents from all areas are urged to attend, regardless of the section under consideration. South Anaheimers are expected tomorrow night to protest the light manufacturing tag the Commission would affix to the area adjacent to the new Thomas Jefferson school now under construction. Citizens in that area are currently circulating a petition calling for protest against the proposed zone. The proposed zoning ordinance and illustrative maps are now on display in the City Engineer's office. High School Budget (Continued from Page 1) on both school athletes and all students, was reported to have paid off substantially more than total premium payments during Fair Health Exhibit Planned by County Health Agencies Preparations are now under way by the various health agencies and professions of Orange county to join in a huge health exhibit at the Orange county fair, August 16 to 20. Dr. E. L. Russell, county health officer, announced that his department, the seven hospitals of the county (including proposed new Hoag Memorial hospital at Newport Beach), the Red Cross, Tuberculosis Association and National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, together with the medical, dental and nursing groups, will be represented in the exhibit, which will occupy five booths, measuring 10 by 50 feet. It is the first time in this country that all health activities will be presented in one exhibit, said Dr. Russell. Marsha Heil, young Santa Ana artist, is working on a series of 11x14 panels, to illustrate various functions of the agencies and professions. Kodachrome drums also will be used, showing views of these activities, including surgical operations, dentistry, cancer clinic, public health and sanitation functions, and nursing. The exhibit will include a health quiz table, using the question and answer method. Nation at Glance (Continued from Page 1) them to be wary of any action limiting personal liberty. But he said the Bill of Rights is not intended "to prevent the government from maintaining our nation's integrity against subversion or attack." High School Budget (Continued from Page 1) on both school athletes and all students, was reported to have paid off substantially more than total premium payments during three of the last four years and accordingly now required the additional payment of a $300 reserve fund for its continued use. The board approved the added payment with the understanding it would be refundable should benefits again fall below premium payments. A discussion of fleet insurance on school vehicles brought the decision to call for bids on school buses and other vehicles insurance. Trustess decided to investigate the possibility of refinishing the boy's gym floor with school equipment and labor rather than putting the reconditioning job out to a professional firm for an approximate $1000. Purchase of Bus Approval of the purchase of a $12,481 Crown International Super Coach school bus was also made by the board, as were the purchase of a cash register for the student store, new light fixtures for the auditorium and other rooms, and lumber for the new school store. Motion to pay piano-tuner Oscar Brower an annual $150 fee, plus $3 an hour on extra services, was also approved. After hearing a report that youths were continuing to break into the school swimming pool and swim after hours, the board rejected a proposal that a barbed wire barrier be erected and suggested closer checking by school watchmen. Korean War (Continued from Page 1) city in the south. Allied Threats The red bridgeheads posed threats to allied forces at two places. One was five miles north of Waegwan, 15 miles northwest of Taegu, the provisional South Korean capital. The other was six miles south of Changnyong, which is southwest of Taegu. At least three red regiments—clinic, public health and sanitation functions, and nursing. The exhibit will include a health quiz table, using the question and answer method.

WASHINGTON — The House today postponed until at least tomorrow further debate on an economic control bill—while its Banking committee worked on a compromise. Speaker Rayburn told newsmen he hoped that the House would be in a position to resume consideration of the bill tomorrow. It already has spent almost a week on controls legislation without making any substantial progress. Chairman Spence (D-Ky) said the Banking committee would meet again this afternoon to seek a common ground on which opposing factions could agree. He expressed hope that an agreement would be reached shortly. There was a possibility that the Senate may pass a controls bill before the House does. The Senate Banking committee reached agreement on a bill last night, and that bill is being used as a base for the House committee's discussions. President Truman would get virtually full discretion as to when or whether to impose economic controls under the senate committee plan. LOS ANGELES—Two Southern California contractors associations have been upheld by Superior Court in their contention that a recent contract forbids AFL carpenters to strike. The union was enjoined yesterday from violating the agreement, which the Associated General Contractors and the Building Contractors association claimed was binding on the carpenters as well as four other building trades unions. The carpenters, many of whom walked off jobs shortly after the agreement was reached, claimed that their contract had expired and they were not bound by the new pact, which provides a raise from $2.12 to $2.20 an hour. They wanted $2.32½. Contempt citations against 16 carpenter union officials will be heard August 21. They have been ordered to appear to explain why they had ignored a restraining order July 7 forbidding a strike. The union said it will carry its case to the appellate court.

One was five miles north of Waegwan, 15 miles northwest of Taegu, the provisional South Korean capital. The other was six miles south of Changnyong, which is southwest of Taegu. At least three red regiments—9000 men with probably more slipping across behind them in darkness were over the river in two spots. Frontline reports said one of eight tanks sighted had been ferried across the river by the communists. General MacArthur is sending words of confidence to President Truman. "Tell the president not to worry. We are confident about the situation over here," he told W. Averell Harriman, the president's special assistant and adviser on foreign affairs, as Harriman left for Washington after a three-day visit that took him to the warfront. One of General MacArthur's intelligence officers estimated North Korean losses in six weeks were 44,500 men—an average of more than 1000 a day in the six-weeks-old war.

NEW YORK — Light selling squalls drove the Stock Market off course today. Despite the strength shown by General Motors and—to a degree—other auto issues, a large number of stocks either sold at small losses or remained at Monday's final levels. GM pounded ahead around $4 a share at one time following news of a special dividend of $2.30 a share and the usual $1.50. Other motors showed a little more restraint, with gains of around $1 a share posted for Chrysler and Studebaker. International paper was another strong spot, rising about $4 a share in the wake of news of stock and cash dividends. Demand was stimulated not only by GM's dividend announcement, but by reports of progress by U.S. troops in Korea during their first counter attack in strength. At the same time there was considerable caution in evidence because of the persistent failure of Congress to produce an acceptable war taxes and control bill. Business expanded to the largest total in more than a week. Turnover hit a rate of around 2,-200,000 shares for the full session. Most of the gains were scored during the morning. Later top marks were reduced all along the line and some issues were pushed into the minus column.

Warren Would Keep Defense Out of Politics SACRAMENTO (AP)—California stands ready to turn on its civil defense machinery in every community whenever the federal government gives the word. Governor Warren made that indirect reply today to assertions by James Roosevelt, Democratic nominee for his job, that Warren has failed to organize a concrete civilian defense program. Warren said state plans are moving along in keeping with the federal program. California not only has followed every Washington directive on civilian defense, he said, but is anticipating many others. He added: "Civilian defense is too important to the security of our people to be kicked around as a political football," the governor declared at a press conference. "The people will be told the precise truth as the situation develops. Whenever the federal government is ready for general recruitment of volunteers, the machinery will be ready in every Californian Swims (Continued from Page 1) up. She was sobbing as she was pulled from the water, within sight of the White Cliffs. Begged to Quit Shirley May's coach, Harry Boudakian, and her manager, Ted Worner, begged her to quit. "Please, please, come out," said Worner. "Harry knows what's best for you." "But it's so near," Shirley May cried. "It's only three hours." "More like six hours," Boudakian replied. The boats about her closed in, a tight circle. She argued and pleaded, all the time eluding the outstretched arms. "You'll have another try," Boudakian said. "You can't get in on the tide now. It's too late." Shirley sobbed bitterly. "Everyone is going to think I'm a flop," she cried. Boudakain replied: "If I thought you could do it I wouldn't take you out." Then the coach made it a command. At last Shirley May took his hand. She collapsed. Alfonso Cruz, a Guatemalan channel swimming candidate who was in the boat with her party, jumped into the water and lifted Shirley May into the rowboat. She was limp. Shirley regained full consciousness slowly. She smiled wanily at her handlers. Then the tears flowed silently. Miss Chadwick swam the gruelling course almost without eating. She paused four or five times an hour to take cubes of sugar, her only nourishment. The California swimmer financed her attempt—she estimated it cost her $5000—without outside help. She had refused commercial tieups, saying there would Orange County Farm Bureau Will Host Eight-County Meet Saturday Farm people from the eight southernmost counties of California will gather at Garden Grove next Saturday for an interregional meeting of leaders in the Farm Bureau organization of California.
