'Over the Back Fence' Gets Anaheime This week your "OBF" column will begin a new policy. Each week we will ask one vital question devoted to your opinion concerning politics, personalities or current issues. Our question this week "How has the advent of TV affected your way of life?" Mrs. Henry Weick of 517 E. Sycamore says, "We don't go to as many movies as we used to, in fact we haven't been to a movie for a long time. Television also makes us feel in closer contact with world events by actually seeing them, rather than just hearing about them." The Weicks have lived in their new home for three years. Originally hailing from Muskegon, Michigan, the couple moved to Anaheim five years ago. Henry Weick was a captain in the Army during World War II, stationed in the European theater. Mrs. Weick was born in southern Brazil and moved to Michigan while she was very young. While Captain Weick was overseas she moved to Los Angeles to study costume design. The Southern California climate was pretty much like Brazil and she decided to stay. After she finished designer's school she began work in a costume designer's shop in Beverly Hills, where they designed a lot of the motion picture costumes. When her husband was discharged she quit work and they moved down here and he went to work in a local real estate office, C. D. Yoder.

Their collection of animals consists of a fat cocker spaniel, Taffy, and "Georgeous Gus," a parakeet that talks more than any two people. Mrs. Myrell Royer and her family live right across the street at 512 E. Sycamore. They have only lived in their home since September, when they moved out from Willoughby, Ohio, but they have already formed some definite opinions of Anaheim. Her answer to our question of the week: "Our TV set is broken right now. The rest of the family likes it pretty well, especially the westerns and variety shows. I really don't care, can take it or leave it." The Royers have two daughters, Marge, 19, who is employed by the Fullerton branch of the Bank of America, and Joan, 15, who is a frosh at AUHS. Mrs. Royer is also the guardian of her nephew eight-year-old Paul Winters, and has been rearing him since he was 11 months old. Myrell Royer is a painter and paper hanger who is employed by Walter F. Sorenson, painting and decorating in Laguna Beach. Cinder, their combination cocker spanier and terrier, also comes from Ohio. The family has this to say about Anaheim, "People aren't sociable and neighborly as they are back East. Since we have gotten to know our immediate neighbors, we found they are very friendly, but we mean the people in general. They just don't seem to have the native friendly spirit as the people back East." Our next interviewees are transplantists from Santa Ana. Dr. and Mrs. John Wilcox have now been situated at 419 E.

They just don't seem to have the native friendly spirit as the people back East." Our next interviewees are transplants from Santa Ana. Dr. and Mrs. John Wilcox have now been situated at 419 E. Sycamore st. for 4½ years. Dr. Wilcox is an ear, nose and throat specialist, and he was formerly practicing with Dr. Elliott here in Anaheim. About a year ago he moved his practice to Santa Ana. They just can't seem to get together with their work and their residence. They have two children, Carol. "First of all, we eat earlier. We either have to eat before 5:30 p.m. or after 6:07 p.m. or between then and 6:30 p.m. (That's the time of the children's favorite programs.) Another thing, it is practically impossible to get the children to bed. Social life?—If we have callers in the early evening hours we have to entertain them on the porch. Also there has been a tremendous increase in juvenile callers. But we still go to concerts, singing groups and visit quite a bit." The Wilcox's are very enthusiastic about the arts and singing. Every week they trek over to Santa Ana to 'sing with the Orange Empire Chorale, a mixed GOLD RUSH VALUE!

We have fine schools, recreational department, and parks (the family loves picnics). We took square dancing classes at the park, and Carol took figurine painting last summer." Mrs. Wilcox is an active member of the Orange County Art Assn. and Dr. Wilcox is a member of the Anaheim Rotary club. Easy $s (Continued from Page 1) mittee discussed the earnings of these citizens among others: A Florida deputy sheriff, salary $4200 a year, who retired after four years with a new Cadillac and a $26,000 farm. Frank Costello, the New York gambling figure, who gets $1000 to $1500 a month in "salary" from a Louisiana casino. Sam Perrone, who can't read or write, but has got anywhere from $40,000 to $65,000 a year for hauling scrap away from a Detroit stove factory. There's a moral to all this: Perrone didn't get to spend much of his income after he was sent to prison for six years as a convicted bootleger. Costello has been cited for contempt by the Senate committee and the U.S. Attorney in New York is considering perjury charges against him. And Mickey Cohen — people keep shooting at him.
