Crossing Guard Pay Problem Still Unsolved Anaheim School Board members last night threw the question of who should pay street crossing guards, the school district or the City of Anaheim, back in the city council's lap. The action was in reply to proposition by the Council last Tuesday night to share the cost of crossing guards on a 50-50 basis. School board members are standing pat on the opinion of County Counsel Joel E. Ogle that the school district is not authorized to make expenditures for such purposes as hiring street guards. City councilmen started the move to compromise the cost with a letter to the school board on... City of Anaheim, back in the city council's lap. The action was in reply to proposition by the Council last Tuesday night to share the cost of crossing guards on a 50-50 basis. School board members are standing pat on the opinion of County Counsel Joel E. Ogle that the school district is not authorized to make expenditures for such purposes as hiring street guards. City councilmen started the move to compromise the cost with a letter to the school board on August 25. Superintendent M. A. Gauer replied with Ogle's opinion to which the councilmen in turn replied with the same 50-50 proposition. The councilmen indicated that they considered 50 per cent of the salary cost to be the school district's responsibility in seeing to the safety of the students. In the past the city paid the entire cost of hiring crossing guards. Motivation for the 50-50 campaign came with a jump in guard salary demands from $60 to $75 per month. School board members last night opined that traffic guarding on city streets was a city responsibility. In addition, Board President H. H. Stabbert said, "our hands are legally tied in the matter." STRANGE BED FELLOWS NORTH FORK, Calif. (P)—Lee Lawson said he woke up to find his black Pomeranian puppy had found a new playmate—a baby skunk. The two were frolicking beside Lawson's bed. Although somewhat worried, Lawson didn't have the heart to break up the friendship and take the measures one usually takes with skunks. But he did manage to shoo the pair outside. No, the skunk didn't do anything he shouldn't. Board president H. H. Stabbert assured the audience that the construction of the addition was "only a matter of time." "The addition will be built" he said, "but we are faced with uncertain costs. Nobody knows whether prices will go up or down at the present time. We must decide the best time to spend our money in order to get the most out of the expenditure." Stabbert then called attention to the $85,000 budget allotment for the project as contrasted with the low contractor's bid of $118,-000. Parents in attendance were willing to sympathize with the board's monetary problem last night butheim Hallowe'en Festival is the counterpart of the customary Queen of the Festival. It is not however, a bathing beauty nor queen contest: The rules state that girls eligible to enter contest must live in the Anaheim High school or rural route area. Age limit is 15 to 19.

ORANGE CAPITOL OF THE WORLD NAHEIM GAZETE EST. 1870 ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1950 Life Toward Seoul In Bold Vote The Sewer Bond Next Monday citizens of seven Orange county cities and communities including Anaheim go to the polls to vote on the three and one-half million dollars bond issue for the construction of the proposed Magnolia Trunk Sewer line. Various city and county authorities have extolled at great length the need for the added sewage facilities if the county is to enjoy continued economic progress. That progress they say is already in jeopardy. Existing sewage lines were built 25 years ago to serve 80,000 people. At present they are staggering under a load imposed by well over 100,000 people—and the number of county residents is on the upswing. Sewage is reported to be running in the streets of some communities. Engineers have had to bolt down manhole covers to keep effluent in sewer lines where it belongs. Engineers, medical men and businessmen all over the county say the necessary bonds must be voted—and voted now. It's up to you, the citizen, from here on out. Ten polling places will be in operation in Anaheim Monday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. MacArthur Supervses Inchon Assault (AP)—American Marine TOKYO, Saturday, Sept.

It's on Camiguin island near the northern coast of Mindinao in the southern Philippines. Twenty-seven others were injured seriously, the Philippines White House announcement said. Three Philippine naval patrol vessels were ordered to rush to the island and stand by in the event there was need for a mass evacuation of the inhabitants. The air force sent Red Cross workers and medical supplies. Three villages were reported being threatened by falling ashes. Earlier today two children had been reported killed by the volcano's ashes. It was not announced whether they were included in the 51 reported killed. On September 1, 1948, Hibok Hibok began erupting after a series of 15 earthquakes. Three days later the 45,000 islanders were being evacuated. On September 4, the fifth day of that eruption, the main port of the island was abandoned, two villages were buried under lava and 30,000 had been evacuated. The next day a second crater of the volcano erupted, burying five persons. It threatened to spew poison gases on the island. The remaining 15,000 inhabitants were started for other islands. On September 7, 1948, the volcano, calmed down but the next day a new vent was opened and a frantic appeal was sent for evacuation ships when acidic ash was spewed from the volcano. A U.S. army transport took on infantry stormed ash over the big Korean port of Incheon Friday, 165 miles behind lines of the North Korea communists, in a bold cracker operation intended to crush the life out of the invaders.

Moving on Seoul The North Korean radio broadcast the Americans already had vanced half the distance to or 11 miles. There was no firmation. Allied reports said had driven two miles into Seoul in the first smash. Covered by bombardments, British and American warfare the Marines landed first—a a.m. (2:30 p.m., PDT, Thursday). The Navy said the Marines surrendered only "negligible losses." Eleven hours later the Tenth Army corps went ashore by tanks. General MacArthur himself off Inchon, touring the difficult flat and seawall landing in a launch while naval gun screeched overhead. He declared "The Navy and Marines never shone more brightly this morning." Later he said the deep ample penetration might break backbone of the Korean red sea. South Korean Marines landed the same time on Korea's coast. These coordinated thrusts in red territory were the key of the long-awaited United Nations offensive. This was the day of turning coming after a series of bitter fought Allied withdrawals that gan with the tank-led North rean assault across the 38th alley June 25. Since that time, in a coat slightly larger in area than the Allies had been shoved southward on the mountainous penula into a box beachhead southeast. The beachhead shrunk to an area roughly 50 wide, by 70 deep—smaller Connecticut. It was some 165 miles northwest of this beachhead (Continued on Page 4) The next day a second crater of the volcano erupted, burying five persons. It threatened to spew poison gases on the island. The remaining 15,000 inhabitants were started for other islands. On September 7, 1948, the volcano calmed down but the next day a new vent was opened and a frantic appeal was sent for evacuation ships when acidic ash was spewed from the volcano. A U. S. army transport took on refugees. Some 5,000 persons remained on the island and were fed by soup kitchens. The volcano subsided on September 12, 1948.

Anaheim reported personal property taxes represent about 27 per cent of its municipal revenue. Orange representatives said about 25 per cent of that city's income is from personal property taxes. Laguna Beach estimated the share at about 22 per cent. Other cities of the county made approximately the same estimates. Imposition of sales taxes on increases of such tax where they already exist appeared to be the most favored source of replenishing revenue.

Despite handicaps, the dynamic young evangelist got quite a response. The number who answered his piea for salvation varied in official estimates from 800 to as high as 1500. Graham wanted to get them grouped around his stand on the 40-yard line, but the Rose Bowl management said keep off the grass. So the converts were strung out around the quarter mile running track. Graham, who has shot to national fame after drawing thousands to weeks of revival here earlier this year, seemed to find the 100-000 plus seat Rose Bowl imposing. He was far away from most of his audience, half of it was behind him, and he seemed to find speaking more difficult than in a tent or on Boston Common, where he drew some 50,000 last spring.
