Aquatic Activities
(Continued from Page 1)
More than 300 students, up to and including those of adult classification are presently taking advantage of the high school offering.
Several Phases
There are several phases of activity. These include intermediate instruction, embracing those students beyond the beginner stage, advanced swimming and diving water ballet, advanced pattern life saving, swimming and to top it off, activities strictly recreational in nature, open to adults, families and hard working juvenile recreation leaguers who finish off day's sporting events with a cool dip.
All this keeps the AUHS plunge going full blast most of the time. Here is a typical day.
8:30 a.m.-11:45—three hour-long classes of intermediate swimmers.
11:45-1 p.m.—ballet.
1-2:15 — advanced swimming and diving.
2:30-3:45—recreation swimming.
3:45-5:15—Magnolia swimming group.
5-6:30—family swimming instruction.
6:30-8—advanced pattern swimming.
There it is. A 12-hour schedule.
Glover Heads
Dick Glover heads up the high school program as director of summer activities. Glover, Director of Boys Athletics at AUHS, has handled the summer program for the past five years.

3:45-5:15—Magnolia swimming group.
5-8:30—family swimming instruction.
6:30-8—advanced pattern swimming.

Glover Heads
Dick Glover heads up the high school program as director of summer activities. Glover, Director of Boys Athletics at AUHS, has handled the summer program for the past five years.
Acting as his right hand man is Red, Cross-furnished Erwin North. North is the man that swimmers intent on earning a Red Cross life saving certificate must face when test time comes.
Diving instruction, as well as some advance swimming comes via Leonard Weaver, number one man on the Colonist diving brigade.
Ballet instruction and the latest in aquacade techniques are effectively put forth by Tom Hoag. Hoag, who holds down a fulltime outside job, donates his time freely to the betterment of Anaheim swimmers. He has a wide background of water show experience to his credit. A close friend of Hoag's is Florence Chadwick, the San Diego lass who recently swam her way to the English Channel record.
Don Derrr, City Recreation Director, leaves his City Park haunts long enough to handle daily classes at the AUHS plunge.
Gretchen Glover doubles as life guard and assistant to father Dick.
Sure Bet
That's the lineup. It amounts to a sure bet for success as far as the job of facilitating the development of fine swimmers is concerned.
The AUHS program commenced July 10, this summer. Right now all eyes are on the 24th of this month when the culminating Swim Carnival is slated to take place.
In effect, the Swim Carnival boils down to a summer swimming school open house. Students receive graduation certificates for summer achievements, and show their parents and friends what they have learned under the guidance of the worthy instructors.
But the carnival also means top aquatic entertainment for interested Anaheimers. A highlight of the proposed evenings' activities will be the water ballet. This is the thing toward which a number of the young ladies in the summer session have been working.
While not regarded as a finished performance by instructors, which the youngsters work out are breathtaking.
Hoag's Baby
This is Hoag's baby. He's put in a tremendous amount of time and effort on it.
But that isn't all. The carnival also includes comedy living, featuring the hilarious mastery of Leonard Weaver and Bob Williams. And there will be special races and events designed to show what Anaheimers have been doing with all the time spent at the plunge this summer.
It is an event that should not be missed. That's August 24. Time is 7:30 p.m. Plan for it. Come out and see what your town does for the athletic enhancement of its younger set.
SHARKS SIGHTED
LA JOLLA (P)—One man-eating tiger shark has been sighted and another caught in Southern California waters recently.
Dr. Carl Hubbs, professor of ichthyology at Scripps Institution of Oceanography here, said one was sighted near the Scripps pier.

NEW YORK—A rising Stock Market picked up considerable momentum this afternoon.
Demand for railway issues started the market on its way after a period of morning hesitancy. Buying soon spilled over into other groups, notably aircraft and oils.
Gains ranged to more than $1 a share.
Rubbers and motors were among the few issues which found the going rough.
Business increased as quotations advanced. Turnover hit a rate of around 1,800,000 shares, well above the total for both Monday and Tuesday which were unusually small.
Among the gainers were N.Y. Central, Southern Railway, Cheeseapeake & Ohio, Gulf Oil, Texas co., Socony-Vacuum, Remington Rand, American Sugar, Gillette Razor, Minneapolis-Moline, Grumman Aircraft, Douglas Aircraft, Bendix Aviation, U.S. Steel, Studebaker, American Smelting, International Paper, Nickel Plate, and Johns-Manville.

State Legion
(Continued on Page 6)
One of the scores of resolutions adopted yesterday put it this way:
“There are no foreseeable prospects of peace between communism and democracy.”
That resolution called for “action now” on total mobilization, which was defined to include:
Controls of manpower, wages, prices, materials and profits; speeding up the draft; and provisions for arming Western Germany and forming a unified Western military command.
The Defense Department was criticized by the Legionnaires because, despite "the expenditure of many billions of dollars our armed services were not in a position to successfully conduct a police action such as the Korean campaign."
Congressional investigators would be directed to find out why and "consider the removal from office of those responsible ..."
Because of Johnson's former Legion connection, there was some objection to the resolution, but it was adopted overwhelmingly.
OK ON SAND PIT
In the face of heated opposition at a hearing yesterday the county supervisors granted a land-use permit to R. J. Noble for a sand and gravel pit and hot-mix plant on Anaheim-Olive rd., east of Santa Ana river.
World Ponders Elusive Quake
By The Associated Press
Some scientists agreed today that yesterday's earthquake—one of the greatest ever measured by man—may have occurred near the wild fastness of the Himalayan mountains.
Whether the big quake shook the earth in Tibet, Eastern India or Northern Burma was uncertain in the opinion of these seismologists.
The Rev. Daniel Linehan, S.J. head of the Boston College Seismograph station in Weston, Mass., said it was not surprising that no word had been received from the vicinity of the quake.
He said his opinion was "better."

officer in the new county-wide air pollution control district.
Adoption of the regulations would arm Tubks for next winter's work in elimination of smudge that caused so much damage and aroused so much antagonism in cities of the county that a housewives anti-smudge league was formed and led a drive to obtain regulation.
Orange county regulations are patterned closely on those of Los Angeles county. They will be subject to a review at a public hearing set by the supervisors for September 6 in a Superior Court room to be designated later. At that time, growers and others concerned will learn what regulations are proposed and have a chance to discuss them.
Nine types of orchard heaters are covered in the proposed regulations as permitted equipment, 14 other types to be used temporarily, but a dozen other types are peremptorily banned. No heater may emit carbonaceous solids exceeding one gram per minute, and all must use approved fuels.

The mortar shells directly into Waegewan. The city also was under direct observation and artillery fire from the red-held west bank of the Naktong.
The air blow came as large-scale reinforcements arrived from the United States for Negro Infantrymen at the front to bolster the Allied defense of the peninsula.
Tide Turns
First report from observer pilots indicated the B-29s may have turned the tide with decisive effect for the present.
They saturated a 23-square mile area with 3500 quarter-ton bombs. The area is slightly larger than New York's Manhattan Island. In it was believed to have been the greatest red force yet out together.
The B-29 strike was made on an emergency tactical basis.
American soldiers in their foxholes cheered the bombers as they attacked.
There was evidence that the reds, in expectation of followup ground attacks, were trying to blow up the Russian-style underwater tank bridges they had thrown across the Naktong.
Fifth Air Force pilot observers saw the reds splashing across the river from the Allied east side to the communist west bank after the bomber raid.
U.S. Army scouts probing out to see how severely the enemy's striking power had been hurt found communists digging in—apparently expecting an Allied ground attack.

The Associated Press scientists agreed today yesterday's earthquake—one greatest ever measured by may have occurred near the business of the Himalayan Mountains.
Over the big quake shook in Tibet, Eastern India, Burma was uncertain opinion of these seismolo-
Rev. Daniel Linehan, S. J., the Boston College Seismological station in Weston, Mass., was not surprising that no had been received from the quake.
His opinion was "better than a guess" that it probably occurred in the wild Himalayas or Eastern India.
British experts decided the giant tremor took place in Tibet, or perhaps Burma. One Kew Observatory official placed it between the Himalayas and Burma.
In Germany, the Geophysical Institute of the University of Continger supported the view it might have originated in Burma or Tibet.
It was described as the strongest in the institute's 30-year history and more violent than the one which flattened Messina, Italy, in 1908, killing more than 80,000 persons.
Ty Cobb batted over .300 a total of 23 times from 1906 to 1928—a major league record.
Fifth Air Force pilot observers saw the reds splashing across the river from the Allied east side to the communist west bank after the bomber raid.
U.S. Army scouts probing out to see how severely the enemy's striking power had been hurt found communists digging in—apparently expecting an Allied ground attack.
Field reports said the South Korean First Division followed the reds in hot pursuit.
American Army patrol scouts also crossed the Naktong to the red side and met little enemy opposition.
U.S. air observers over the battlefront brought back the first reports that the reds were fleeing in terror after the bombings.
They fled "in all directions," one observer said.
Indications were that the reds backing across the Naktong for safety were driven out by a combination of air bombings and South Korean gorund attacks.
Pilot observers said the reds in some areas had thrown away rifles and packs and taken to the hills. They seemed dazed and demoralized, two pilots said.
46,000 TV SETS GO INTO HOMES
Forty-six thousand more television receivers went into Southern California homes during July to give the Los Angeles TV area a total of 642,597 video sets in use as of Aug. 1, Chairman Richard W. Millar of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce television committee reported today.
