Mechanics of Proposed MWD Election Outlined by Municipal Water Official Mechanics of the proposed special election in the Orange county Municipal Water district, for annexation to the Metropolitan Water district, one of the most important steps now before the county, were explained to directors of the district and a visiting delegation from the Orange county Water district recently by Col. M. B. Wellington, counsel for the municipal water district. President J. W. Crill, Secretary W. D. Miller and Directors E. T. Watson, Merwin Wagner and Stephen Griset, of the Orange county Water district, attended the municipal water district board meeting in Orange city hall, to inquire regarding progress toward holding the MWD annexation election. Unless the municipal water district is annexed to MWD by Dec. 1, the Orange county Water district risks payment of an additional $125,000 to MWD for the 25,000 acre feet of Colorado river water being delivered to Orange county this summer. A price of $10 per acre foot was allowed, on condition the municipal water district is annexed by Dec. 1. Otherwise $15 per acre foot must be paid, it was agreed. At present, Wellington explained, the municipal water district is engaged with exclusion proceedings involving the South Spadra strip and another small tract annexed to Fullerton. That election is scheduled tomorrow. With it out of the way, the dis- MWD requires the exact figures in its contract with the district. said Wellington, and it is also required for the information of voters before they ballot in the special annexation election. Notice of the annexation election must be published 30 days in advance of the election, he said. Considering all factors, it should be possible to hold the annexation election well ahead of Dec. 1. Wellington stated. 33 West Point Cadets Check Out of Academy WEST POINT, N.Y., LP—Thirty-three of the 90 accused military academy cadets are civilians today, most of them slated for early dates with their draft boards unless they gain admittance to other colleges. Their glum exodus from the academy marked the beginning of the greatest mass expulsion in the 150-year history of the "Point." All 90 are accused of violating the West Point honor code by cheating on examinations. Col. James B. Leer, academy information officer, said yesterday that "almost all" of the departing 33 had resigned — rather than be waived out of the Army under administrative discharges. The cadets who resigned left Anaheim Gazette by JOHN S. NEUBAUER ...

PERSONALITIES — La Palma Park is the Mecca for baseball talent scouts as Dennis Patriche's tournament unfolds.

Iran Rejects New British Proposal In Oil Discussion TEHRAN, Iran (P)—The Iranian cabinet rejected Britain's proposal for joint operation of the nationalized oil industry today but expressed willingness to continue negotiations on the dispute. Deputy Premier Hossein Fatimi said the cabinet handed its rejection to chief British negotiator Richard Stokes after a special meeting at the home of Premier Mohammed Mossadegh last night. Iran's condition for continuing the talks was that they be limited to implementing the terms of the nationalization law which placed the vast British-owned Anglo-Iranian Oil company under Iranian government control. Stokes proposed yesterday that nationalized company's oil wells and refineries continue to be operated under the skilled hands of British management so that the flow of vital oil might not be curtailed.

WILSEY DAIRY Announces the New Vita-Rich Academy marked the beginning of the greatest mass expulsion in the 150-year history of the "Point." All 90 are accused of violating the West Point honor code by cheating on examinations. Col. James B. Leer, academy information officer, said yesterday that "almost all" of the departing 33 had resigned—rather than be waived out of the Army under administrative discharges. The cadets who resigned left under an administrative order, which implies neither an honorable nor a dishonorable discharge. They received 30-day emergency leaves. When the leaves expire, those not already registered for Selective Service must report to their local draft boards. Each departing cadet was interviewed by Maj. Gen. Frederick A. Irving, academy superintendent. Col. Leer said Irving told each cadet he was "confident" they would "rise above this and have a successful career." At least 10 more of the accused cheaters will be fully processed today, and take their "last walk" through the academy gates. HAVE YOU HEARD THE GOOD NEWS?

BUENA PARK Government Life Insurance Policies May be Renewed Without Physical Exam Government life insurance term policies held by veterans and those in service may be renewed at the expiration of any term period for a successive period of five years without physical examination, as the result of two amendments to the insurance laws signed by the President August 2, Veterans Administration said today. Public Law 104 grants this right to holders of National Service Life Insurance and Public Law 101 contains a similar provision applicable to United States Government Life Insurance. Formerly, renewal was authorized by the Congress for one additional five-year period at a time. The new legislation permits such renewals indefinitely. The premium rate paid for term insurance increases each time it is renewed for a new five-year term period, in accordance with the age of the insured at the time of renewal, and becomes expensive to carry in the upper age brackets. For this reason, VA recommends early conversion to a permanent plan of insurance, for which the premium remains the same for the life of the contract. The successive renewal periods granted by the Congress for term NSLI or USGLI policies apply only to those contracts for which the term period has not yet expired.
