Terms of the lease provide that the City of Anaheim may designate the site of any drilling on the lease. A variance will have to be sought by the company and granted by the city before drilling operations can begin.
Cook estimated that 12 to 14 wells will be drilled in the five acre plot and six in the two-acre piece. He asked that the lease provide specifically that only one well may be drilled to ten acres of land, which would indicate 30 wells to be drilled on leases held at present by the company.
Initially, Cook explained, and oil produced will be pumped into camouflaged storage tanks on the drill-site, and then hauled off by tank truck. Later, he said, other methods would be used if production warranted it.
Only one drilling derrick at time will be erected on the sites. Cook said, thus doing away with the danger of unsightly horizons in Anaheim such as clutter the Huntington Beach, Long Beach and Santa Fe Springs oil producing areas. In addition, drilling will be done electrically and will not be audible beyond a distance of 7 feet. Dumping equipment is loft to the ground and one pumping station will serve all of the casings emanating from one whipstock.
Tickets are going fast for the performance of Daniel Llords and his internationally famous puppets which will be seen on the stage of the Fremont school auditorium on July 30. It was announced today by Earle Jackson and Joe R. Thompson, co-chairmen of the event.
The public appearance here of Llords' puppets is under the auspices of St. Michael's church vestry.
The puppet show is filled with action and color and is entertaining equally for adults and children.
Mr. Llords puts his marionettes through all sorts of entertaining routines. There are dancers, musicians, clowns, trapeze performers, even an underwater extravaganza.
Mr. Llords is practically a one-man crew when it comes to governing the many movements of the puppets, handling the lighting effects, playing the music, and manipulating the stage props.
One of the most fascinating parts of the show is watching Mr. Llords handle all the details of staging his puppet show. In addition, he explains the actions on the stage and, at times, helps out the marionettes by singing their parts.
The show was brought to Anaheim because it had been enjoyed by members of several local clubs who had featured the production; the members thought it should be brought to the general Anaheim public.
General admission price is 50 cents. The time is 7:30 p.m. The date is July 30. And the place is Fremont school.
Tickets may be purchased at the door on the night of the performance or may be obtained in advance at Jackson's Drug store or from members of the St. Michael's congregation.

Objectionable Odor Suit Filed Against Anaheim Industries
Notification was given Anaheim city council last night by District Attorney James L. Davis that objections to odors emanating from industrial plants in northern Anaheim have been filed with his office against the following firms: Anaheim Citrus Assn., Essex Wire Corp. of California, U. S. Industrial Chemicals, Inc., and C. W. Wise and Sons, who operate a cow-feed dehydrator.
Councilmen expressed surprise that the matter hadn’t been handled through local officials and asked City Attorney Preston Turner to contact the DA with a view to having the matter transferred to local authorities.

The communists have served notice that they intend to insist on a buffer zone between the opposing armies along the 38th Parallel. Ridgway’s orders are to get a buffer zone along the present battle line, which generally is north of the parallel.
In the earlier stages of the negotiations on what should be discussed in arranging an armistice, the reds tentatively accepted the idea of close observation and inspection. But authorities here say they actually are committed to nothing and may resist of the idea of United Nations or other members of an inspection team looking over their forces.
Diplomatic officials say these two issues mean it may still be many days, or even weeks, before an actual armistice is achieved.

Dog Leash Law For City Goes Under Study
Study which may eventually lead to a dog "leash law" in Anaheim will be undertaken by City Administrator Keith Murdoch on instructions from Anaheim City Council following the reading of two letters and a petition from frate property owners who objected to the city's many footloose canines.
Anaheim's present leash ordinance applies only to dogs in the city's parks. Licensed dogs are permitted to roam at will through the city, immune from the dog-catcher's activities, while unlicensed dogs are picked up wherever they are found.
The protestants, many of them dog-owners, objected to the damage unleashed dogs do to flower beds, lawns, etc., and to the fact that they are free to molest pedestrians and bicyclists.
Murdoch was instructed to inquire how other cities have handled the problem and present possible solutions to the council at a future meeting.

packed courtroom by saying that his landlady, Mrs. Elsie Bucquet, came into the cabin while the girl lay dead in the kitchen and accused him-of killing the child. He then became frantic, he said, and then beat her many times over the head with a broken flatiron that he had accidentally pulled off a shelf.
He went to the other room of the cabin and when he returned to the kitchen a few minutes later, there was no sign of the landlady, he said.
Since Mrs. Bucquet, in her testimony for the prosecution made no mention of such an incident, there was speculation that McCracken's defense may contend that McCracken, who spoke in a halting voice and repeatedly referred to his mental confusion during the time in the cabin, had a hallucination regarding the landlady and was actually beating Patty's head with an iron, without knowing it. That would account for the 15
Plea of Guilty Filed by Contino
SAN FRANCISCO UP—Accordianist Dick Contino, who got "panic claustrophobia" on 28,600-acre Fort Ord, Calif., spent last night in a 5x8 foot county jail cell.
Contino, at 21 a $4,000 a week entertainer, entered a surprise plea of guilty at his draft evasion trial yesterday. He told Federal Judge Michael J. Roche he is now ready to go into the army.
"I know I can be a good soldier—a very good soldier," he said.
Instead, the judge sent Contino to jail to await sentence Aug. 7.
"Ever since this started, I've felt like a lousy heel," Contino told the jurist.
"This" started in April. One day late, Contino reported at Port Ord. He quickly passed an army psychiatric test. Next day, he fled in his convertible. Arrested weeks later, he explained his flight: "Everything was behind a fence. It made me sick all over."
Four Servicemen Hurt in Crash
Two marines and two coast guard personnel were injured at Santa Ana boulevard and Flower st. Santa Ana, at 2:55 a.m. today when James P. Kennedy, 18, Camp Pendleton marine, fell asleep at the wheel of his car while traveling south on the boulevard.
When he awoke he saw a car driven by Thomas H. Edwards, 19, Los Angeles, 200 feet away. Kennedy's car skidded 146 feet and crashed head-on into the Edwards car, police reported.
Injured were both drivers and their passengers. Robert F. Kelly, Camp Pendleton marine, in Kennedy's car, and Ronald M. Comfort, coast guardsmen, New Orleans, in the Edwards car. All received lacerations on their faces and hands, Kelly and Edwards received leg injuries, and Comfort suffered a shoulder injury. All were taken to El Toro-marine base dispensary.

Since Mrs. Bucquet, in her testimony for the prosecution made no mention of such an incident, there was speculation that McCracken's defense may contend that McCracken, who spoke in a halting voice and repeatedly referred to his mental confusion during the time in the cabin, had a hallucination regarding the landlady and was actually beating Patty's head with an iron, without knowing it. That would account for the 15 deep scalp wounds found when her body was discovered five days later.
McCracken said he then argued with himself about the situation. "I can't go in there," he said he told himself. "But I've got to go in."
The defendant said he got hold of her foot and dragged her to the sink. He said he cried to the child: "speak to me honey, talk to me. But she didn't answer."
He said he bathed her head in the sink.
Thus, McCracken sought to explain to the jury of six men and six women that the child had come by her head wounds accidentally.
He also sought to explain that the child's body had been washed thoroughly before she was buried.
McCracken said, "I took her body to the bed while I cleaned the kitchen up. She bled while on the bed."
A bloody bedspread identified at McCracken's was found buried near the body of the little girl.
He referred again and again to pains in his head and a sick feeling at the time, also lapses of memory when he talked to the child as if she were alive.
Finally, he placed her body behind and under the bed because he had a date with his girlfriend, Mrs. Pearl Fisher, and left the cabin to keep it. He failed to find her and later borrowed the auto of Lee Stradley to locate an amplifier for his guitar so he could play at Stradley's cafe. He said he decided to take the little girl for a ride with him. So he went to his cabin, wrapped her body in the yellow bedspread, which later was found near her grave in Live Oak Canyon, and placed her in the rear seat of the auto with a towel wrapped around her head and another cloth placed under her head.

COUNTY'S FEDERAL DEBT

Lee Stradley to locate an amplifier for his guitar so he could play at Stradley's cafe. He said he decided to take the little girl for a ride with him. So he went to his cabin, wrapped her body in the yellow bedspread, which later was found near her grave in Live Oak Canyon, and placed her in the rear seat of the auto with a towel wrapped around her head and another cloth placed under her head.
Leaving the cabin, he apparently suffered another mental lapse, he indicated, and caused considerable traffic disruption by his driving. After failing to find a friend at a Santa Ana hotel, where he expected to borrow an amplifier, he purchased gas for the car. Then he suddenly realized, he indicated, that Patty was dead and that he must dispose of the body. So he procured a shovel at the home of his parents in Santa Ana and drove to Live Oak Canyon where he had to work on a county jail road gang the preceding summer where he had to serve sentence for a sex offense.
At that point and before he described details of the burial, court adjourned for the noon recess. McCracken was to resume his testimony this afternoon.
His attorney, G. Chula, told the jury, in the opening defense statement, before McCracken took the stand, that McCracken was innocent and the truth would come out. He referred to McCracken as "that poor boy" and "a poor, ignorant, pathetic, moron." He is "picked at like a sick chicken," Chula said.
Chula pledged himself, if McCracken is acquitted, to personally file sexual psychopath proceedings against McCracken and have him put away in an institution from "one year to life, probably life in this case."
