Orange County Program Under Way by Next Spring After Five Years Planning Actual construction of the Orange county sewerage program, after nearly five years of planning, disputing and finally agreeing, will start about April 1, 1952, it was forecast last night by Administrative Officer Nelson M. Launer of the Joint County Sanitation districts, which met at the court house. Saving of possibly $500,000 in costs also is in view, it was stated. Launer said that joint agreements for purchase and sale of Joint Outfall system facilities to be acquired by the sanitation districts, and for joint construction and operation of the system, are finally ready for signatures of district executives, after long preparation. These agreements pave the way to sale of the districts' $8,308,-000 in bond issues. Meanwhile, the new engineers employed by the districts have suggested modifications in the Bacon sewerage plan which would save between $400,000 and $500,-000 in the overall program, it was reported by Chairman Robert Boney, Anaheim, of the executive committee. The principal change would be construction of a 60-inch trunk line parallel to the present 48-inch JOS outfall line along Bushard st., instead of the 84-inch line provided in the Bacon report. The new plan also would involve use be required for the lower plant and its concealing landscape. It is estimated that some 6000 acres of land could be irrigated by gravity flow of sewage reclaimed at the plant. Engineering report on these changes of plan will be ready in about 10 days, it was said. Launer announced that the April 1 date for start of construction of the system is based upon a time table allowing 30 days for filing of the engineer's preliminary report on ocean outfall. 60 days more for exploration of ocean outfall data, then six months for design of the system, after which the district would call for bids and award the contract. Sale of the bond issue should be expedited, Launer advised, saying that bond authorities advise offering the issues on the New York market, for better interest rates. Interest rates are now rising, so delay should be avoided, Launer said. San Diego recently marketed an $11,000,000 bond issue at 2.17 per cent interest. The money received from the bonds, said Launer, can be invested in Series A treasury bonds, paying 1.44 to 1.88 per cent interest, thus reducing the net interest cost to the districts on unused funds. As funds are needed, the treasury Walker Murder Trial Recesses RIVERSIDE (P)—The murder trial of Air Force Sgt. Lawrence J. Walker is in recess until next Tuesday, when another jury panel of 40 will be sworn. The young negro's attorneys declared in a statement that the prosecution is thwarting the court's efforts to give him a fair trial by exercising peremptory challenges against negro and Mexican-American members of special panel. District Attorney William C. Mackey has exercised nine of his 20 peremptory challenges, two against negroes, two against Mexican-Americans. Defense lawyers Crispus Wright, Leo Branton and Everett Porter issued a statement yesterday saying these four prospective jurors were "excellently qualified to serve as unbiased jurors." The special panel, requested by Walker's negro counsel, was just about exhausted when court adjourned yesterday. The original panel was discharged because the defense contended it did not constitute a representative cross section of Riverside county residents. Walker, who has been stationed at March Air Force base, is accused of slaying Richard Cook, 14 and his wife, Doris, also 19, near here last March 26.

Edmondson has agreed to advise Finance De Bacon sewerage plan which would save between $400,000 and $500,000 in the overall program, it was reported by Chairman Robert Boney, Anaheim, of the executive committee. The principal change would be construction of a 60-inch trunk line parallel to the present 48-inch JOS outfall line along Bushard st., instead of the 84-inch line provided in the Bacon report. The new plan also would involve use of two treatment plants, including the present JOS plant, with an addition, and construction of an additional plant at the lower end of the line, with clarifiers and primary treatment facilities; also provision for future secondary treatment and sewage reclamation, if desired. About 30 acres of land would Korean War (Continued from Page 1) sustained offensive, but they may attack anyway." The Eighth Army reported the reds threw a series of probing attacks at the U.N. lines in the area northwest of Yanggu. The Allied line was under artillery fire all day. An intensive barrage fell north of Yanggu. Patrols moving out well ahead of the lines were hit by heavy mortar fire. The only Allied advance was north of Inje, McArthur reported. Allies fought off day-long small arms fire to move forward about a mile. Far East Air Forces reported F-80 Shooting Star jets sweeping escape routes north of the triangle "took a heavy toll of enemy troops Wednesday." They continued round-the-clock operations, working over highways at night by the light of flares. Naval pilots from the U.S. Carriers Princeton and Bon Homme Richard said they routed an entire red battalion in strafing and fire bomb raids on ridges along the eastern front. Two U.N. planes were shot down Wednesday—a Shooting Star jet and a Marine Corsair. The Marine pilot was rescued by a helicopter from a hilltop, raked by red fire, near Wonsan.

The money received from the bonds, said Launer, can be invested in Series A treasury bonds, paying 1.44 to 1.88 per cent interest, thus reducing the net interest cost to the districts on unused funds. As funds are needed, the treasury bonds can be converted, he said. Boney's report said that the engineers had considered seven modification plans, but regarded the big trunk line elimination as the most feasible. Their changes, he said, were based upon lower estimates of future population than contained in the Bacon report, and somewhat higher sewage flow. On recommendation of the executive committee, the district directors last night approved a salary increase for Secretary Ora Mae Merritt from $250 to $300 a month. Test Well Under Way on Nutwood Avenue Property Preparations for drilling the test oil well on the property of Mrs. A. H. McDuell, 732 W. Nutwood, were reported progressing steadily today. On Continental Oil company lease land, the oil probe is the first in the vicinity: Thirty-seven trees were pulled several weeks ago and heavy machinery is now being moved in, according to Mrs. McDuell. City Experiments With New Machine A machine which will more than double Anaheim's street construction capacity is being tried out by the city on S. Claudina st. between Valencia and Lemon today and has already worked over S. Janss st. between Santa Ana and Water. Formerly the city used a disc-type machine to construct the road-mix type of surface. The new machine, called a "rotary tiller," will, according to estimates do the same work in less than half the time. Price is $4800. The Claudina st. work will com-titute a representative cross section of Riverside county residents. Walker, who has been stationed at March Air Force base, is accused of slaying Richard Cook, I and his wife, Doris, also 19, near here last March 26. Talbert Ranchers (Continued from Page 1) State Engineer A. D. Edmondson has agreed to advise Finance Director Dean that he agrees "principle" with such a police Baily said Edmondson promised he have his engineers make new studies of the economic factor involved, in view of changed state of water supply. Bailey had informed the financial director, he said, that for every acre foot of water pumped from the basin by state institution someone else had to buy an acre foot of water with which to place it. Dean has promised to consider the plan of using Colorado river water for state institutions. Secretary W. D. Miller reports that 10,149 acre feet of the 25,000 acre feet of Colorado river water purchased this year from Metropolitan Water District has been delivered to date, and the flow will be stepped up July from 70 to 90 second feet after channel improvement is completed in Prado basin. Miller presented figures showing that the water district expenditures for the present fiscal year will reach $309,000, including the $250,000 paid for MWD water, and $10,000 for channel work in Prado basin; also a $50,000 advance payment to MWD for 1952-53 water purchases. Estimates based upon approximately unchanged assessed values for the new fiscal year show that the district's 15-cent tax rate will raise $219,208 in taxes, while with other income from gun club and sand leases, is expected to produce a total income of $339,910.21. The water district approved employment of Mrs. Grace Michaelson as assistant secretary. NEW PARK PLANTINGS Anaheim Park Superintendent Vic Ruedy said today that planting of ivy geraniums has begun. Princeton and Bon Homme Richard said they routed an entire red battalion in strafing and fire bomb raids on ridges along the eastern front. Two U.N. planes were shot down Wednesday—a Shooting Star jet and a Marine Corsair. The Marine pilot was rescued by a helicopter from a hilltop, raked by red fire, near Wonsan. The Colombian frigate Almirante Padilla jointed American destroyers off Wonsan, continuing the bombardment of the port city which has been underway for four months. Formerly the city used a disc-type machine to construct the road-mix type of surface. The new machine, called a "rotary tiller," will, according to estimates do the same work in less than half the time. Price is $4800. The Claudina st. work will complete demonstration of the machine, after which it will be considered for purchase by the city council. IT'S EASY—TO MAKE DREAMS COME TRUE!

PARK PLANTINGS Theim Park Superintendent udy said today that plantivity geraniums has begun in the privilege of listening to an outstanding Anaheimer — Thomas Kuchel—the "local boy who made good." . . It really hasn't been so very long ago that Tommy Kuchel graduated from Anaheim Hi and faced the same uncertain future as do the members of the Class of '51. The Class of 1951 faces an uncertain future. With war clouds on the distant horizon, many a June graduate may trade his diploma for a G1 outfit before many weeks turn into months. FIGURES—This is graduation week. Students from high schools, elementary schools and colleges are being presented sheepskins—parchments rather—as recognition of their achievements.

He's a suave, debonnaire little Anaheimer with a trim little mustachio. Like a lot of other Anaheimers—Roberto PARK PLANTINGS theim Park Superintendent uedy said today that plantivity geraniums has begun in lands on Parkway st. just off A. After completion of that he said, the same will begin islands on Mills dr. VIGNETTE—Raul Moran is a dapper little chap who virtually exudes personality. He's a suave, dehonnaire little Anaheimer with a trim little mustachio. Like a lot of other Anaheimers — Roberto Peralta, Eddie Ochoa, and Art Altheide just to mention a few— "Mighty Mouse" Moran likes to play softball for a pastime. He plays in the Anaheim City league with Big Pete Guadan who is making a remarkable comeback after an auto crackup. "Mighty Mouse" is one of those fellows who rides the bench regularly and gets to play when the other lads don't show. The other night at Fullerton, the Daystrom manager nudged Raul and said: "Go in there and hit for (Bill) Steinborn—he's got a sacrifice and a walk"... "Aw right!" Moran cocked his head jauntily, went to the bat rack and picked up a wagon tongue... "Whatcha going to do with that bat?" George Mene asked... Moran smiled. His eyes twinkled as he replied: "Hit a home run!"... "Moran hitting for Steinborn!" the umpire beloved... "Mighty Mouse" walked up to the plate... He swung at the first pitch and missed it by inches... He connected squarely with the second and drove the ball to left center. He missed second base and cut into third on his trip around the sacks, but it didn't matter. It was a home run. "Mighty Mouse" Moran did what the more vaunted players would like to have done...

The processed food name purchase price was $1,250,000. The growers exchange then appointed Marketers, Inc., of New York exclusive distributors of the frozen citrus products. This group is headed by John I Moone, who brought Snowcrop to a leading position in the frozen juice field. He resigned from Snowcrop this week to head Marketers, Inc., which will have four marketing areas located in New York, Chicago, Dallas and Los Angeles. Martin Mathews will head the New York branch and other appointments will be announced later. Moone said the battle of the groves won't be a price war but he believed California could deliver a juice uniform in color and flavor which would be a "better buy at the same price than juices which vary in color and flavor because of the varieties and different maturing times which have prevailed so far." Lemonade mix already is being distributed under the Sunkist label; the orange juice is expected to be nationally available in July. Other products will be a straight lemon juice, grapefruit juice and an orangeade. Moone smilingly denied there would be any effort to invade the state of Florida market with the California product. The California growers have set aside more than a million dollars to advertise the new juice with newspapers getting the bulk of the sum.
