The Anaheim Soap Box derby is getting off to a flying start, according to Hursel Snyder, of Cone Bros. Chevrolet, who says that 15 entries have already been received and word has come in that many more are on the way.
Last year a record breaker for Anaheim entries, saw eight boys finishing their cars and entering the big regional race in Los Angeles.
Mr. Snyder says the entries this year are surpassing the number of sponsors and suggests that Anaheimers who want to help a kid get his car on the track only have to contact him at the Chevrolet agency.
"They are a bunch of nice youngsters and Anaheim business-men-sponsors will get a big kick out of having them carry their colors," Mr. Snyder said.
Mr. Snyder on Monday and Tuesday showed the film "Many Hands" before students at the Fremont school, Horace Mann school, and Thomas Jefferson school. About 600 youngsters witnessed the film. It deals with Soap Box Derby "story" from the local kids to the big national derby. Mr. Snyder was much appreciative of the cooperation given him by the schools and said that he feels the film has created a great amount of interest in the derby among boys and girls.
All kids interested in placing an entry in the races are invited to talk it over with Mr. Snyder at Cone Bros. agency. This year is the 14th annual version of the derby, which is growing bigger by the year.
Cone Bros., the Optimist club, and the Gazette are cooperating in local derby plans.

...create a hundred-thousand jobs!
From the loam to the loom and beyond, California cotton is big business. It takes a hundred-thousand people to grow and process California's yearly crop, so it isn't surprising that it takes a lot of money, too.
If you were to ask 100 cotton men where this money comes from, you'd hear Bank of America mentioned more often than you'd think. For in cotton—and just about anything else—Bank of America matches "know-how" with the money to make it produce.
But lending money is only part of the bank's job—deposit services are important, too. Commercial checking accounts, Tenplan checking accounts, Life-Insured Savings, Thrift Club, Christmas Club and regular savings accounts all serve the banking needs of Californians in more than 300 cities and towns.
Here is statewide branch banking in operation—a banking service that is possible only because of progressive policies, vast resources, and statewide branch facilities

MERRY-GO-ROUND — Pert Paula Doretti is being groomed for a motion picture role opposite Jeffrey Lynn. Brucks Randall, multi-millionaire Missouri tobacco heir and independent motion picture producer, is sending the Anaheim blond through drama school in preparation for her role in "Forty Notches." When the Gazetteer inquired about the beautiful Anaheim blond's movie career, he was told there was nothing to it. Incidentally, it was a cheesecake photo that caught the eye of the producer after he had made a talent search of Texas. Marie Wilson, Joy Lane, and Pat Hall are doing right well in the entertainment world.

Extending Anaheim’s City Limits Delayed Pending Talks on Water Cities
Annexation proposals pending before the Anaheim City Council are apt to be postponed for the next two months due to a Metropolitan Water District order, it was revealed at last night's meeting of the City Council. The order, and the reasons for it, have not been formally received, but the "word" was relayed by City Attorney Preston Turner.
Annexation of 217 acres northeast of Anaheim, dubbed the "Acacia st., Annexation," was not acted upon last night, although the annexation petition was up for approval. Patric Boden, who is promoting the addition, is out of the state for 10 days, so action was postponed until his return. The council felt a discussion of water costs in the area should precede further action.
Vernon Rold, owner of 1½ acres on Lincoln ave., abutting on the city limits, asked for annexation in his area to help solve a critical water problem. He said he has to carry water from his neighbors to supply his needs. The council asked him to canvas his neighbors to get more acreage for the proposed annexation and E. W. Moeller, secretary of Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, offered to work with him. Moeller suggested the annexation go beyond Euclid ave., and up to the new Robertshaw-Fulton Controls plant at Euclid and Manchester.
A hearing date will be set soon on a petition signed by owners of 17½ acres bounded by N. Lemon

HOI POLLOI — Vic Ruedy is really doing a good job with those sycamore trees. They're really hard to keep alive. Incidentally, Vic won a lot of praise for Anaheim when La Palma park went to the dogs. People from all over Southern California praised the wonderful cooperation they were given in Anaheim. Danny Olivas and Waldo Ortega drove down to San Felipe to do a little fishing. "Were we suckers?" Danny exclaimed. "We drove down there just to get three croackers. If you ask me, that San Felipe is really over rated! And what's more—they really hold you up. They charge you double for everything." That reminds me of the time the Buena Park Bowling alley concessionaire went fishing in Mexico. Well, Emmett Wood hit a chuck hole on one of those unimproved roads and overturned his car. Although no one was hurt, the Mexican authorities financed him fifty bucks just for having an accident.
MISCELLANEA—Danny Kraemer hasn't much use for that little English motorcycle with which he toured the continent last summer now that's in the Army. Homer Flake is trying to sell it for Danny. Frank and Connie Hargrove are going to set up light housekeeping in Saudi Arabia where Frank pushes a gang of native drillers. Vivian Washbon, incidentally, is handling the territory Charlie Miller had before he retired. They say they're getting some mighty good wells in the rolling hills north of Fullerton. Just how long ago was it that the Bastanchurys sued and collected three million dollars nothing to it... Incidentally, it was a cheesecake photo that caught the eye of the producer after he had made a talent search of Texas... Marie Wilson, Joy Lane, and Pat Hall are doing right well in the entertainment world.
A hearing date will be set soon on a petition signed by owners of 17½ acres bounded by N. Lemon st., Romneya dr., and Spadra rd.

Just how long ago was it that the Bastanchurys sued and collected three million dollars for their Coyote Hills oil interests? John Steele, the honorary mayor of Buena Park, is under the weather. He's at the Good Samaritan hospital. Max Karl, the shoestore Karl, is back on his feet. He recently passed through the valley of the shadow of death. But you can't keep a good man down.
NEWSNOTES—Noel Sweeney like so many others is looking for a coaching job. Jack du Bols also has several irons in the fire. A lot of PE majors are discovering that there are more coaches than coaching jobs. Ken Hellyer, one-time Anaheim automobile dealer, is doing business uptown now. As the West Ellay Bulck agent, he has taken page ads in the metrodailies. It pays to advertise. Ken's brother, J. O. Hellyer, is still with us. He sells cars in Fullerton.

Folks looked at the fresh new styling—the power—the features—the fabrics—the cloud soft cushions—and the prices—and said "Here's the smart buy in the fine-car field."
Why don't you come and see for yourself what a sensational buy this proud beauty really is?
It's a honey to handle—a joy to ride in—and just about the handsomest thing on wheels.
It has room, and poise, and a level-going gait that comes from coil springs front and rear.
There's a triumphant thrill in the willing obedience of its Fireball power and the luxurious ease of its Dynaflow Drive, which doesn't cost you a penny extra.

Orange County Is Included in Public Health Unit Plan
WASHINGTON (AP)—The Federal Security Agency suggested today the formation of 37 local public health units in California to cover all of the state's 58 counties.
To staff these health units, the agency recommended a minimum of 258 physicians and 1,984 nurses.
The pattern was suggested in publication the FSA said is designed to show how regional planning would enable general hospitals and local health departments to work together for better health in every community.
Announcing the publication, Federal Security Administrator Car R. Ewing said it is intended as a guide rather than a blueprint.
However, he said, the study "enable health officers, hospital planners, and state and local administrators to visualize how a coordinated pattern of hospitals and health departments could fit our own needs and make possible a superior type of health protection for citizens of their communities."

School Minded Vets Reminded Program Ends
The July 25 deadline for starting GI Bill courses of education and training for most veterans is exactly three months away. Veterans Administration reminded veterans today.
That date, established by law, should be kept in mind. VA said by World War II veterans making plans for schooling or training at government expense. This coming summer term, for example, will be the last during which most veterans will be permitted to enter or re-enter GI Bill training.
A veteran actually must be in training by the deadline if he wants to continue afterwards. VA will consider him in training, even though he has temporarily interrupted his course for the summer vacation or for other reasons beyond his control, such as re-entry into military service.
Once he completes or discontinues his program of training after the cut-off date, he may not start another course.
He will be expected to pursue his training "continuously until completion, except for conditions which normally would cause interruption by any student."
SHERMAN TO CONFERENCE
Lt. Roger Sherman of Anaheim Police department was granted permission by City Council last night to attend the annual conference of the California State Division of the International Association.
Vets' First Bites Of $685,000,000 Dividend in Mail
The first checks for the second special dividend of $685,000,000 to be paid to holders of some 8,000,-000 GI insurance policies have been placed in the mail.
Veterans Administration said the checks cover dividends due on some of the National Service Life Insurance policies with anniversary dates falling during the month of January. The anniversary date of a policy is the anniversary of the date on which it originally became effective.
An insured should not expect to receive a dividend check until several months after the policy anniversary date because the final calculation of the amount due cannot be made until the last premium has been paid for the dividend policy year.
Dividends will be paid on those policies which have been in force three months or longer during the three-year period from the anniversary in 1948 to 1951 inclusive. This applies to both term and permanent plan policies including those which have lapsed or were terminated by the death of the insured.
VA said the dividend will require about one year in which to pay. The bulk of the dividend should be distributed by April 1952.
"enable health officers, hospital planners, and state and local administrators to visualize how a coordinated pattern of hospitals and health departments could fit their own needs and make possible a superior type of health protection for citizens of their communities."
Mapping out health unit areas, the agency says they are designed to serve a population of no less than 35,000 and drawn to fit the pattern of setting or proposed hospitals and health centers.
Physicians and 37 nurses are suggested as a minimum for range county.
He will be expected to pursue his training "continuously until completion, except for conditions which normally would cause interruption by any student."
SHERMAN TO CONFERENCE
Lt. Roger Sherman of Anaheim Police department was granted permission by City Council last night to attend the annual conference of the California State Division of the International Association for Identification, to be held May 23 to 26 in Laguna Beach.
Lt. Sherman is a member of the board of directors of the California division which includes this state, Arizona and Hawaii.
VA said the dividend will require about one year in which to pay. The bulk of the dividend should be distributed by April 1952.
