VOLUME LXXIX Anaheim's FIRST Newspaper ANAHEIM Swollen Streams Maroon Northstaters FRESNO, Nov. 20—RESCUE WORK BY HELICOPTER—A helicopter used by the Coast Guard is about to take off with marooned flood victim in the Fresno county area here. Many persons were rescued in this manner as rains and melting snow turned peaceful Sierra streams into raging rivers, threatening parts of the state with the worst flood in state's history. (Associated Press Wirephoto.) New Rain Storms Threaten Flooded Northstate Area FRESNO (AP)—New storms were moving in waves upon upper California today, heightening the menace of floods in foothill and valley areas. (See accompanying Wirephoto.) Thousands had been driven from their homes. Damage to property, crops, highways and livestock was counted in the millions. The Coast Guard said one of its helicopters rescued 36 people marooned in the Kings river area and that DUKWS (amphibious personnel carriers) had picked up 38 more. All day Coast Guard planes have droned over the inundated area, spotting marooned residents for rescuers. Rain Storm LOS ANGELES — Central California's terrific storm brought only drizzles to Southern California over the weekend, but in foothill communities the totals in some instances topped an inch. Growers hailed the gentle drizzle, however, because most of it soaked into the ground. There was virtually no loss from runoff. The Topanga canyon station, high in the Santa Monica mountains, was far ahead in rain totals, recording .34 inches since the storm started early Saturday. Slowly clearing skies are in prospect, the Weather Bureau said. In Visalia, Tulare county, four members of a family burned to County Crashes Injure Fifteen Fifteen persons were injured, three of them seriously, in Orange county week-end traffic accidents, the California Highway Patrol reported today. Four of the accidents resulted from automobiles running off the highway. One of these accidents involved Clyde D. Boliver, 22, 7521 Eighth st., Buena Park, whose car struck a water tank on Orangethorpe ave., 200 feet west of Harvard, northwest of Anaheim. Boliver received minor injuries and was taken to Fullerton general hospital. Phineas A. Kinney, 57, Westminster, sustained minor injuries when his car missed a curve but hit a culvert on Newport blvd., Costa Mesa, late Saturday. He was hospitalized. Two Long Beach high school students, Dorothy L. Harris, 16, and Clifford Ochsner, 17, were Flood Victims Relate Tales of Dramatic Rescues SACRAMENTO (AP)—Victims and spectators of the surging high water in the American river today told of countless dramatic rescues over the wet weekend. Suburban volunteer fire departments and boat owners, summoned in an appeal by sheriff's deputies, made trip after trip through debris-clogged water to aid of marooned persons. By the best estimate, some 700 residents of the flooded low lands along the American were forced from their homes. One of the tenseest series of rescues started with an effort by two 14 year old boys to save a mongrel dog. The dog was trapped on an island of debris snagged on the piling of the approach to Jibboom street bridge. The first youth, Eugene Lane, climbed into a tree with limbs overhanging the approach. His companion then got up into the tree as young Lane reached downward toward the dog. Lane slipped into the swift moving water. He clung to the debris—holding the dog. He finally worked his way to the precarious "island." Bystanders hauled the dog to safety on a rope. Meanwhile, Evans fell into the water. Both youths were rescued by Ray Rhodes of North Gazette to Treat Top Young Gridmen To Ram-Packer Football Game Dec. 3 Some 40 young Anaheim football enthusiasts are in for a treat.

British Say Reds Against Mao Seating NEW YORK (AP) — Britain charged today the Soviet Union actually does not want the Chinese communists seated in the United Nations, where they would have wide contacts with the non-communist world. Addressing the General Assembly, British Minister of State Kenneth Yonger said many governments now share Britain's view of Soviet motives. He said Soviet moves, presumably designed to Killer of Five Ends Prison Hunger Strike WOODBURY, N.J. (AP)—Ernest Ingenito, dark-haired young appliance salesman who killed five Killer of Five Ends Prison Hunger Strike WOODBURY, N.J. (AP)—Ernest Ingenito, dark-haired young appliance salesman who killed five persons and wounded four in a savage effort to wipe out his estranged wife's family, ended today the hunger strike he began Saturday in a prison cell. Warden William Mollineaux of the Gloucester county prison said Ingenito, 26, ate breakfast this morning and appeared in a "very good mood." Ingenito, steadily chain-smoking cigarettes, was talking freely with guards, but has not discussed the killings, the warden said. The conversation is mostly about his work as a television salesman and repairmen, and about other jobs. The prisoner had refused food since he was jailed after the 23-minute massacre Friday night. The hunger strike, however, had not endangered his health, Mollineaux said, and Ingenito has made no further suicide attempts. The slim young gunman has been under the constant surveillance of two guards at all times, the warden said, partly because of an attempt he made to take his own life with a razor a few moments before he was seized by state police after an automobile (Continued on Page 5) Gettysburg Notes Historic Speech GETTYSBURG, Pa.

Addressing the General Assembly, British Minister of State Kenneth Yonger said many governments now share Britain's view of Soviet motives. He said Soviet moves, presumably designed to give the Chinese reds representations in the U.N. are made in such a form as to assure majority opposition. He cited as an example Russia's counter-proposal to Secretary Trygve Lie's 20-year peace plan now being debated in the Assembly. The wording of the Soviet resolution "is cleverly conceived" in an effort to impose on the Assembly the Russian contention that Security Council meetings participated in by nationalist China's delegation are illegal, Younger said. Britain never could support a revolution designed to bind the Assembly to such a position even though the British government has recognized red China, Younger explained. A. M.
