The all-purpose dime ...
While reading our favorite newspaper (The Anaheim Gazette) last night we read with more than casual interest the Telephone company's pitch to increase the price of a telephone call from five cents to a dime.
That, of course, is additional proof of a trend.
Bespectacled economists, as well as the haggard keepers of the family budget, call this trend by various names—none of them good.
But one thing about it is clear. That is—as has, no doubt, been pointed out to you before—that the nickle is growing as obsolete as the buffalo which once adorned it. The dime is becoming the basic coin.
To be sure a dime phone call will fit in order to change the battery.
A thin dime can serve as a chisel of sorts, and a new one with sharp edges will prove something of a glass cutter.
A dime can be used for tightening leaky faucets, for repairing electric light fixtures, for tightening the top of a desk loosened by the pressure of too many feet coming to rest there, and it can be used to tighten up the kid's toys.
It can even be used as a pliers or as a wedge.
Indeed it is much better as a tool than it is as money—and it is worth only as much as yesterday's nickle.
Of course, all of us could go on pointing out the unique role

But one thing about it is clear. That is—as has, no doubt, been pointed out to you before—that the nickle is growing as obsolete as the buffalo which once adorned it. The dime is becoming the basic coin.
To be sure a dime 'phone call represents 100 per cent inflation—a little more than the $1.98 necktie which once cost $1.00.
However, there is a much brighter side to this whole matter of the dime becoming into such general use.
There is, for example, no loose screw that cannot be set and tightened by a dime—if not by a thick new one then by a thin dime well worn by commerce and other carpenters.
Screws holding doors are constantly working loose through slamming, due to temper, and these are designed for any type of dime.
A dime will remove hinges from the wooden strong box, after the key has been lost, and, at the other extreme, there is a groove on the bottom of a portable radio where a dime

WASHINGTON (AP)—This week the Un-American Activities committee will unfold the story of a communist spy ring in Japan which sent the innermost secrets of the Tokyo high command back to Moscow.
This is an important story and the public needs to know about it. However, it's also important that the public realize that a lot of the current communist spy news, now making headlines, is extremely old and warmed-over hash. The story about the spy ring in Japan, for instance, was told in this column almost three years ago—Dec. 21, 1948.
Incidentally, one reason the story was never officially released by the U.S. government was because General MacArthur would not authorize it. In December 1948, the late Secretary of Defense Forrestal cabled MacArthur asking for a release, but it was not given.
However, here is the vitally important story, as told in this columning the top of a desk loosened by the pressure of too many feet coming to rest there, and it can be used to tighten up the kid's toys.
It can even be used as a pilers or as a wedge.
Indeed it is much better as a tool than it is as money—and it is worth only as much as yesterday's nickle.
Of course, all of us could go on pointing out the unique role of the dime in our everyday life: it can be used if a fuse blows out, (although not recommended by the fire department), it will open a jar of jelly, it can be used to regulate gas stoves, it can be used to open a paint can, to remove the plug from a cigarette lighter fuel tank, and so on.
So, it really is all right that we have inflated to the dime as our basic coin . . . but let's be wary .
A quarter is such an inferior all-purpose tool that there would be no point in inflating to that.

OBLONG VIEWS
FROM AN EGG-SHAPED HEAD
BY WALDO HUNTER
A PANEL OF veniremen chosen to pass on the guilt or innocence of an accused person is, ambng other things, considered to be a cross section of the citizenry of the county in which the trial is held. If such were true in the case of the McCracken jury, law enforcement in Orange county seems to be headed back to the days of the Vigilantes... the mob may take the law into its own hands... the stern justice of the noose may be revived.
If a crime along the pattern of the Patricia Jean Hull thing were repeated somewhere in Orange county today it is likely that outraged citizens, stunned and disappointed by the mistrial of last week, would disregard the constituted law and go after the killer themselves, melting out capital punishment on the spot if they apprehended him.
Otherwise peaceful and law-abiding citizens would reason: why let the agencies of the law have a mad dog if he is going to be delivered from punishment by 1) certain watery-bowelled members of the jury panel, 2) by a crafty defense lawyer, or 3) by the fumblings of an over-confident district attorney, or by an unsavory combination of all three?
Of all those who had anything to do with the McCracken trial, the presiding judge apparently is the only one who stands blameless. Judge Robert Gardner, although young as superior judges go, is considered a smart judge and an exacting one. At the outset of the trial he ruled that the promembers of that jury to his will.
I would hesitate to imply that in this case someone "got to" certain members of the jury, but there is room for speculation as to whether a few of them were or were not visited by McCracken's now famous "talking dog."
The unfortunate jury in this case has come in for more than its share of abuse.
Never (with the possible exception of a few motion pictures) has a district attorney walked into a courtroom armed with such a formidable array of evidence against an accused man. Bolstering his iron-clad case, the DA had white-hot public opinion on his side. It was a clench, and a month ago you could have made book against McCracken's chances of escaping the gas chamber and retired this week a millionaire.
The district attorney's opening moves were professional and faultless. We all read the papers, and sank back with a sigh of relief that this thing would be cleared up quickly with the desired result... swift, sure judgment.
But the DA, too sure of his ground, then decided to coast and

Anaheim Well Represented in National Tennis
Six Anaheim high school players left at 8:00 o'clock this morning with bags packed and racquets ready, for an assault on the National Junior Public Parks Tennis championships drawings in boys' and girls' singles, girls' doubles, boys' doubles, and mixed doubles which were to get under way this afternoon on the Arcadia county courts.
Winners of the qualifying tournament held on the city park courts in the spring, the six players will represent the city of Anaheim under the sponsorship of the Recreation department in one of the first national tennis tournaments to be held on the Pacific coast in years.
Junior tennis stars from the entire United States are expected to compete, with the draw for the boys' singles having been closed with a draw of 64, and the girls entries running to an even 50.
Phillip Wright represents Anaheim in the boys' singles, with Joanne Kellogg playing in girls'
Of all those who had anything to do with the McCracken trial, the presiding judge apparently is the only one who stands blame-less. Judge Robert Gardner, although young as superior judges go, is considered a smart judge and an exacting one. At the outset of the trial he ruled that the proceedings would be conducted in a dignified manner, and that "Hollywood" antics in his court would not be tolerated. From all accounts of the trial, he made good his promise.
A judge, however, is limited in his control of what emanates from the mouths of the lawyers in his court, and he cannot point out to the jury how to evaluate each statement of the lawyer. To a shrewd and ambitious court lawyer, the jury becomes a group of 12 faceless dummies, a target for his rhetorical shafts, a sounding board for his argumentative skill. A good lawyer, whether working for the State or for the defendant, can mold at least some the Un-American Activities committee:
Just as the Russians planted key men inside the U.S. government, so they also began long before the war to plant key spies inside Japan. They began operating about 1934 and continued to 1941—two months before Pearl Harbor.
Two Germans were involved, two Japs educated in the United States, two Americans, and one German-British newspaperman. One of the Americans was Agnes Smedley (now deceased) who lived 20 years in the Orient.
The other American was Tycho Lilliestrom, U. S. vice consul at Harbin, Manchuria. Born in Finland, Lilliestrom served 21 years in the consular service, and died in 1943. It was in his home in Harbin that the communist spies assembled a powerful radio set later smuggled into Japan.
So successful was the Russian spy ring in penetrating innermost Japanese governmtn circles that some of the war lords' most vital secrets were transmitted by short-wave radio to Moscow. The spies could have booked against the Cracken's chances of escaping the gas chamber and retired this week a millionaire.
The district attorney's opening moves were professional and faultless. We all read the papers, and sank back with a sigh of relief that this thing would be cleared up quickly with the desired result... swift, sure judgment.
But the DA, too sure of his ground, then decided to coast and a precocious defense attorney (remember the question: who's this guy Chula?) went to work and to the astonishment of all concerned, made a shambles of the case of the older and more experienced (and duly elected) legal eagle, the DA.
As a result, McCracken may never smell cyanide gas up at San Quentin, but Orange countians can certainly smell something over Santa Ana way.
Two conclusions may be drawn from the whole sordid mess:
1. You are never too old to learn.
2. Orange county is not the best place in the U.S. in which to attempt to bring up a little girl.

Mr. Jonothan Watson was taken suddenly ill yesterday morning while on his way from his ranch to town. He was conveyed to the Anaheim hotel for medical attendance. His illness is supposed to be a species of cholera, brought on by eating fruit.
Shong and his wife, both natives of China, were interrupted in a little matrimonial unpleasantness which occurred between them at about one o'clock yesterday morning by the valiant Bohn. They were locked up and will probably learn tomorrow from the lips of our worthy justice that candle lectures are sometimes attended by serious consequences.

Harbin, Manchuria. Born in Finland, Liliestrom served 21 years in the consular service, and died in 1943. It was in his home in Harbin that the communist spies assembled a powerful radio set later smuggled into Japan.
So successful was the Russian spy ring in penetrating innermost Japanese governmnt circles that some of the war lords' most vital secrets were transmitted by shortwave radio to Moscow. The spies learned among other things that:
1. The Jap war lords would definitely attack the United States. This information went to Moscow two months before Pearl Harbor.
2. Japan would not join an alliance against Russia. This was learned in 1937, and caused sign the Nazi-Russian alliance, Stalin, shortly thereafter, to which in turn left Hitler free to wage war against France and England. Undoubtedly this piece of information alone swayed the tides of history.
3. Japan would not attack Russia. This information, sent to Moscow in 1941, caused Stalin to pull all his reserves out of Siberia and concentrate them in front of Moscow. Without this intelligence information, Moscow might have fallen.
Head of the communist spy ring was Richard Sorge. Born in Baku, a soldier in the German army, he carefully prepared for his work by taking a special espionage course in Moscow and then becoming far eastern correspondent for several German newspapers.
In Shanghai he met Agnes Smedley, who put him in touch with Japanese communists. In Tokyo, posing always as a German newsman, he became press attaché to the German embassy and close friend of the German ambassador. All the secrets of the embassy passed through his hands.

In the sixth Anaheim scored 5 runs on two walks, singles by Dennis Fitzpatrick, Ralph Everhard, an error and single by Jim Ingram. In the seventh the Rainbows pushed across 7 runs on 5 walks, an error, and two singles by Gary Worden and Eberhard.
