VOLUME LXXIX Anaheim's FIRST Newspaper ANAHE CRASH VICTIM—Darlene Cookson, 19-year-old R verside girl lies dead under one of three cars involved in a West Lincoln ave. crash yesterday. A four and a half year old child was injured, as were three others in the late afternoon tragedy. Gazette Photo Girl Dies in Three-Way Auto Crash Girl Dies in Three-Way Auto Crash A 19-year-old Riverside girl was killed, a four and a half year-old child was injured and at least three other people injured in a three car collision on West Lincoln ave., east of the Magnolia intersection yesterday evening. Dead is Darlene Marie Cookson, 6214 Magnolia, Riverside. The injured child is Joyce Elaine Doss, 2629 Easy ave., Long Beach. She along with two other injured were taken to the Anaheim Community hospital. Miss Cookson's identification card bore the Riverside address. However, she was apparently staying at the Easy ave., address in Long Beach. The three drivers were Dorothy Doss, 22, of the Easy ave. address; Pearl Hale, 74, 4512 N. Valencia Placentia; and Francis Carlson, 52, Denver, Colorado. The crash occurred when Mrs. Doss' car and the one driven by Mrs. Hale sideswiped. Mrs. Hale's car then went out of control striking the car driven by Mrs. Carlson. Mrs. Hale was critically injured. Mrs. Doss received back injuries and her daughter, Joyce, suffered severe cuts on the face. Mrs. Carlson escaped with slight injuries. Officers said that had Miss Cookson not been struck after being thrown to the pavement she probably would have escaped death. The body is at the Renaker Mortuary in Buena Park. Inquest arrangements are pending. PRIDE OF THE POUND—Husky, snow-white sled dog, is currently top-seeded guest at the Anaheim City Pound. Here he frisks a bit with poundmaster Bob Spencer.

Here he frisks a bit with poundmaster Bob Spencer. (Gazette Photo by Beyer) City Pound Stands as Guest House And Death House for Pooches Far out in the northeast corner of the city, just beyond the small arms shooting range, there stands a drab, lonely-looking, unpainted building. Here it is that man's best friend is taken when the world can no longer find a spot for him in its heart. Officially, it is called the city pound. Ever see the place? Probably not. Few persons ever travel up the dusty dirt road that leads to the unpretentious shack surrounded by a high chain link fence. Those who do wander up that way are inevitably greeted by a weird collection of canine yelps, squeals, and barks. Dogs. Dogs of all shapes, sizes, varieties, breeds, and training. And each one thinking every time that this visitor may be the one to take HIM home—home and away from the death that inevitably awaits him. Painless Death For it is death—a quick, painless death by asphyxiation—that awaits all of the inmates of the pound if they are not eventually picked up. Anaheim city ordinance says 72 hours must elapse between the time that they are impounded and when they are "put to sleep," but poundmaster Bob Spencer usually gives them more time than that. Actually, however, according to (Continued on Page 7) Jerome D. Wallace, Resident 40 Years, Dies at Home Jerome D. Wallace, 73, a native of Pennsylvania, who came to Anaheim more than 40 years ago and who has lived on a ranch at 9511 E. Lincoln ave., continuously, died at the home early this morning after an extended illness. For several years before he came to Anaheim he operated a butcher shop in Fullerton. He is survived by his wife, Mary D. Wallace; four sons, Dr. Kenneth S. Wallace of Berkeley, California, Joseph J. of Strathmore, California, Milton H. and Lloyd G. Walace both of Anaheim; one daughter, Mrs. Irma I. Milbrat of Santa Ana; three sisters, Mrs. Eliza Harrington of Nebraska, Mrs. Lulu Smith of Berkeley and Mrs. Cora Andersen of Palo Alto, California; two brothers, James R. of Long Beach and Lloyd B. Wallace of Strathmore; six grandchildren and one great grandchild. He was a member of the First Presbyterian church of Anaheim. Funeral services will be conducted from the Hilgenfeld chapel Thursday at 2 p.m. Burial will be made in Loma Vista Memorial Park. Reveler's Revenge Draws Big Blank Lt. E. Roger Sherman, Anaheim Police Desk officer, was experiencing a rather quiet evening when the man marched into the station. The visitor was more than a little tipsey, according to Sherman, and very indignant. "Some people were following me in my car," he announced. Sherman could easily see why. "So I let them park their car and then I crept up and took their license plate," the complainant continued, waveringly, "Here it is. I want them arrested!" For emphasis he slammed an object down on the desk. Sherman said he was already reaching for the key to the clink but he took a look at the proferred evidence. There wasn't much. In the first place it wasn't a license plate; it was a registration certificate container, in the second place, the container was empty. The chagrined protestor whose peace was disturbed spent the rest of the evening in the Anaheim Jail. Booked on drunk charge, he was released on bail this morning. Indications are that Anaheim Police aren't searching very hard for his mysterious pursuers. Temperatures The temperature reading in downtown Anaheim at 2 this afternoon was 88 degrees. High temperature for the past 24 hours was 89 degrees at 1:30 p.m. today. Low was 58 at 7 a.m. today.

Douglas MacArthur a statement of American policy on Formosa, and also a commendation of the general's direction of the Korean campaign. Mr. Truman's move, following up his week-end order for MacArthur to withdraw a statement on Formosa, appeared to have a two-fold purpose although there was no official comment. 1. To clarify MacArthur's own understanding of the whole situation and give him an implied reminder not to get out of step again. 2. To ease the sting of the incident to the general and also help maintain MacArthur's prestige in the Far East. Presidential Secretary Charles G. Ross gave out Mr. Truman's message without comment and refused to answer questions as to why Mr. Truman sent it. The text of Mr. Truman's letter: "I am sending you for your information the text of a letter which I sent to ambassador Austin dated August 27. I am sure that when you examine this letter, and the letter which Ambassador Austin addressed to Trygve Lie on August 25 (a copy of which I am told was sent your headquarters that night), you will understand why my action of the 26th in directing the withdrawal of your message to the Veterans of Foreign Wars was necessary. Pat on Back "General Collins and Admiral Sherman have given me a comprehensive report of their conversations with you and of their visit to the United Nations forces now fighting under your command in Korea. Their reports were most satisfactory and highly gratifying to me." The letters Mr. Truman enclosed were those officially stating American policy toward Formosa as communicated by Austin to Lie, the Secretary General of the United Nations. The president cancelled MacArthur's message to veterans meeting—obviously because the general's views could be interpreted as calling for permanent American defense on the island, now in the hands of the Chinese nationalists. This went beyond the administration policy to neutralize the island from communist attack during the Korean fighting and to leave its eventual disposition to international action, probably through the United Nations. In the statement, the general said that war is inevitable if For- STUART HAMBLEN County Fetes Guard Tonite In City Park Upwards of 2500 persons are expected to invade Anaheim's City park tonight at 6 to bid farewell to the county's national Guardsmen who are slated to report to Camp Cooke for active duty the first part of next month. It's calculated to be an evening of food, fun and festivities according to Lorin Griset, Santa Ana, a member of the Christian Businessmen of Orange county, the group sponsoring the gala affair. Nearly every city in the county is expected to send delegates. The Greek Theater has been zoned for entertainment for tonight's affair. Stuart Hamblen, well-known cowboy star tops the list of talent this evening. Other feature acts have been organized for stage presentation which will be held after a barbecue for the Guardsmen, their guests and the general public. Music of a martial nature will be provided by the famed El Toro Marine band. A featured guest will be Major General Field Harris, commanding officer for the Air, Fleet Marine Force, Pacific. The Christian Businessmen have been working for weeks to organize a barbecue and program which would adequately express the feelings of the people of Orange county who wish their Guardsmen farewell and best of luck in anticipation of their entry into the country's service. Griset explains, "When the boys left for service in World War II, no one paid any attention to their departure. No one even saw back red attacks in two battles at opposite ends curving Korean war Tuesday.

Brass Advises Training Change TOKYO (AP)—Some high-rank officers, appalled by the short-comings of green U.S. troops in the early Korean fighting, say the army should drastically revise its recruiting and training program. The army should stress recruitment of fighting men who are willing to die for their country if necessary, the officers argue, and forget about bland appeals to travel-hungry, security-and pension-conscious youngsters. They also suggested changes in the concepts of training to prepare U.S. troops to fight in rugged country as well as along fine, wide roadways. One high officer said his men "were enticed into the service by advertisements emphasizing the chance to travel, learn a trade, to be fed and secure, and be pensioned while still young." he added: "They were rudely jolted when they felt the rocks of Korea instead of the Tatami (floor matting) of Japan." It’s ‘Princess Anne Louise of Edinburgh’ LONDON (AP) — Princess Elizabeth's new baby was named Anne Elizabeth Alice Louise day. The child's father, Phi Phillip entered the name of which are famous in the history of England's monarch on her birth certificate on morning at Clarence House royal couple's London marriage.

He had been crushed, accorded deputy sheriffs. He was found by a fellow dentist patient, Ralph Rodriguez 9 p.m. and was believed to died about a half hour earlier.

ZETTE 29, 1950 5c a Copy — 50c Per Month No. 109 Beat Back Red Attacks the Ends Pusan Threat Halted; Gooks Mass at Center TOKYO, Wednesday, Aug. Allied troops beat red attacks in two mild battles at opposite ends of the serving Korean warfront Tuesday. That apparently ended communist chances of a quick end-run on Pusan, the reds' August 31 goal. But the North Koreans were building up at the center of the siege for a major stab at United Nations forces. The bloodiest battle was on a hill at the southern anchor of South Korea. IN KOREA TODAY bloody battles were being fought at the top and bottom of the battle line. The double tipped black arrow indicates wide area along northern front where 20,000 attacking red troops were pushed back around Kigye, although commie spearhead cut behind Allied troops and blocked a road three miles southwest of Pohang. Near Pohang ground troops are aided by warship bombardments. At the lower end of the line Allied troops beat back a red thrust toward Pusan in a wild battle. Nation at Glance National CIO Gives Bridges' Longshoremen Union the Boot By The Associated Press WASHINGTON—The CIO Executive Board today expelled the last two of 11 unions it marked for purge a year ago on charges of hewing to the communist party lines. They were the West Coast Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's union, headed by Harry Bridges, and the Marine Cooks and Stewards, headed by Hugh Bryson. "We are far better off out than we ever were in," Longshore officers commented on their union's ouster from the national CIO. Headquarters of the ILWU issued the following statement: "Officers of the ILWU today greeted the news of the organization's ouster from the CIO with this comment: 'We are far better off out than we ever were in'." Further commenting the officers referred to ILWU President Harry Bridges' speech before the last convention of CIO in which he stated that National CIO had become a racketeering organization far departed from its foundress representative, said today the union's locals would have to decide whether to hold stop work meetings to discuss their ouster from the national CIO. There was no indication of such a stoppage at noon, PDT, Watson said. WASHINGTON — A White House official said today President Truman is preparing a report to the nation. The report, this official said, would cover international affairs, the fighting in Korea and the controls the president feels are needed at home. This official, who asked not to be quoted by name, said no time has been set for the speech. But he said it would be in the nature of a "fireside chat"—such as President Roosevelt used to make—and would be televised and broadcast. White House sources, who could not be named, previously had said the talk might be ready by this week-end. It would be Mr. Trueman's first report to the nation. It’s ‘Princess Anne Elizabeth Alice Louise of Edinburgh’ for Liz’s Baby LONDON (AP) — Princess Elizabeth’s new baby was named Anne Elizabeth Alice Louise today.

The baby also was given an identity card and a ration book today. LAKE SUCCESS (AP) — A majority of the Security Council’s 11 members were reported ready today to accept Russia’s demand for a full airing of the Formosa question. Shortly before the council met (at noon, PDT) informed quarters said Russia, the United States, France, Britain, Norway and Yugoslavia could definitely be counted as favoring the Soviet-proposed agenda which listed the Korea conflict and the Formosa problem as items for discussion.
