Donohue, building inspector for Orange county, gave an address on the functions of his office at the Stanton Chamber of Commerce meeting, Tuesday evening. Orange Police Continue Hunt For Strongarms ORANGE—Orange police today are continuing their search for the two kidnapers and strongarm robbers who abducted Mrs. Shirley May Epperson, 27, Orange housewife, and robbed her of $38 on lonely S. Cambridge st., Monday night. Police investigations have revealed little, they say, because of the manner in which the crime was committed, and the fact that Mrs. Epperson did not get a good look at the pair. A canvass of the neighborhood in which the two jumped into Mrs. Epperson's car as she made a boulevard stop at the corner of La Veta ave. and Glassell st. was made yesterday. As Mrs. Epperson stopped her car at the intersection the pair jumped in the back seat of the car, and ordered her to drive on. When she reached Cambridge st. Mrs. Epperson jumped from the car and attempted to flee. She was struck down by her abductors. Her purse, containing $38 was rifled. A neighbor heard her faint cries for help, and found her lying beside the road near her car. She identified the pair as 13 or 19 years old, dark complexions, KOREAN WAR Continued from Page 1 tinuing withdrawal of the main Allied forces. There has been yet no indication of any political decision that would make any difference whether the first fight occurred north or south of the 38. That mythical boundary, MacArthur has said, has not been any barrier to Allied military action. But the best natural terrain for defense lies in the more rugged mountains crouching along the parallel itself. The North Koreans on their autumn retreat fought from—or in some cases abandoned—defensive positions 25 miles deep on their side of the parallel. These entrenchments remain and presumably could be reoccupied. Lesser defensive works were dug by the South Koreans below 38 during the uneasy peace preceding this conflict. A second and more formidable stand may be made in that area. How effective the Koksan-Chinnampo line is intended to be has not been made clear. It is apparent, however, that it will not be a continuous defense position nor will it be solidly manned across its 70-mile width. Dug in Doughboys, however, could inflict heavy losses on the Chinese and may be able to delay their advance toward Seoul. Their purpose evidently is to do this, then fall back themselves if the pressure becomes too strong. Masonic Lodge Schedules Rite Masonic Lodge 207.

Civil Defense Problems Talked So that there could be a discussion of problems pertaining to civil defense organization, scheduled meeting of a new planning board of nine men was continued yesterday afternoon. Chairman Willis H. Warner of the board of supervisors, a county representative, and Executive Secretary W. C. Jerome of the county's League of Cities, representing the municipalities, went to Pasadena instead. They conferred with Don McMillan, city manager of Pasadena and head of Los Angeles county's civil defense planning board.

To add to its rights on fresh citrus, California Fruit Growers Exchange has purchased from the California Packing Corporation exclusive rights to the Sunkist name on processed products. The price was $1,250,000. It should be worth it. Since 1905, the Exchange has invested more than $55,000,000 in advertising fresh citrus. Any advertising it may now do on its non-fresh output will have a running start by exactly that many millions. Reportedly, frozen orange juice concentrate under the Sunkist name already has moved to the institutional trade. Consumers should find it available in their food markets sometime during 1951. California Fruit Growers Exchange Pay No 'tention to High Blood Pressure. Could be that It Befits Your Age and Sex By ALTON L. BLAKESLEE Associated Press Science Reporter CLEVELAND (P)—Relax, you may not really have high blood pressure, even if your blood pressure reading was called high. For "many so-called 'high' blood pressures may be normal," if age and sex are taken into consideration, Dr. Arthur M. Master, heart specialist of Mount Sinai hospital, New York, said today. There seems to be a widespread phobia or worry about high blood pressure, he told the American Medical Association's clinical session, designed primarily for family doctors. Blood pressures of more than 70,000 persons were analyzed in a study to set up new standards of what constitutes high blood pressure or hypertension, he reported. "The lower limits for hypertension thus established are higher than are generally accepted. It may be unnecessary to attempt to lower the blood pressure if it is within the new normal range for the age and sex of the persons being studied." Women over 45 usually have slightly higher blood pressure than men of the same age, he added. In another report, Dr. Arthur J. Horesch, assistant professor of pediatrics at Western Reserve University School of Medicine, said it might be an allergy that makes a child a bad actor. Ministers Talk Future Plans Two timely issues were discussed and planned yesterday at the monthly meeting of the Ministerial Union at the Chungking Cafe. Rev. D. S. Corlett presided over the group of ministers from the Protestant churches of Anaheim. Rev. Robert Kevorkian and Rev. Frank Butterworth were appointed to a committee to plan the details for the Community Youth Program which will soon begin. The youth group will meet the second Sunday evening of each month. Group will include the youth from Anaheim Association of churches and is basically an attempt to reach all the young people in the community. Programs will include a "sing-spiration," short talks and whatever else the host group plans. Meetings will take place after regular evening services at different churches each month.

Low's visit to the Far Act Deputies German Troops LONDON (UP)—The 12 Atlantic deputies agreed today on a plan to bring German troops into eastern armies defending Europe.

Women over 45 usually have slightly higher blood pressure than men of the same age, he added. In another report, Dr. Arthur J. Horesch, assistant professor of pediatrics at Western Reserve University School of Medicine, said it might be an allergy that makes a child a bad actor. Often, he said, children with behavior problems change their whole attitude when the thing they are allergic to is found and removed. The allergy might be due to some food, to dogs, cats, feathers, overstuffed furniture or other things. The allergy might cause hay fever, eczema, hives, colic, diarrhea or susceptibility to colds or bronchitis. A child may lose his sensitivity to the offending substance if it is removed early in his life. In babies, a period of colic and eczema is often only the first phase of the allergic cycle, he said, adding: "It is a fallacy to believe that a child will 'outgrow' the eczema and that all troubles will be over." Parents should realize that early treatment is necessary not only to correct the skin condition but to minimize or prevent the second Sunday evening of each month. Group will include the youth from Anaheim Association of churches and is basically an attempt to reach all the young people in the community. Programs will include a "sing-spiration," short talks and whatever else the host group plans. Meetings will take place after regular evening services at different churches each month. Also under discussion is a visitation program from Orange county hospital. Plan is for a minister from each congregation to visit patients, just to listen to them and talk to them, at different times. BOMBS SURPRISE SANTA ANANS Six aerial bombs exploded in Santa Ana last night just about set the town on its ear. The American Legion post did it to test its civil defense mobilization, according to police who said that the test was unannounced. Bombs went off in four places around town and while the mobilization was a success, it scared hundreds of persons, and a flood of telephone calls came to both police and fire departments. One young woman became hysterical and fled her home. Citrus Growers— YOUR JUICE PRODUCTS 5,000,000 HEAD START! The comment at left is typical of the trade reaction to the news that Sunkist is going on top-quality juice products. This next year, will your juice products go to market under a brand with little or no reputation in the citrus field, or under this brand with the $55,000,000 running start? National distribution will be built during 1951 on Sunkist Frozen Orange Concentrate and Sunkist Frozen Concentrate for Lemonade. They will be followed by other top-quality juice products selected to carry the Sunkist trademark. With Sunkist, the great name in citrus, now on products as well as on fresh fruit, and with the Exchange products plants fully equipped to produce fine frozen concentrates as well as all other citrus products, the Exchange today offers growers a set of all-round advantages which no other citrus marketing organization can approach! Gain these advantages by affiliating with an Exchange packing house this coming year.
