National Home Week
It is good now and then for the community to turn its attention to the home... to sort of pause and pay respect to one of the greatest of American family institutions... Annually the Anaheim Realty Board concludes National Home Week to re-acquaint the public with all the advantages of home ownership.
Bert Arnold, president of the local board, points out that "concentration of public opinion on the advantages of home ownership has brought almost 60 per cent of the nation's families into possession of their own homes..." a wonderfully high figure.
But, in Anaheim, home ownership is even higher—Mr. Arnold says some 70 per cent of the families, residing here own their own homes.
Yesterday we took a little bit of National Home Week in heart and drove around Anaheim. You're not forced it from someone of home owners out in the front lawns or in the back yards either contentedly enjoy their families and home and land or pursuing the relation pleasure of pattering around the grass and flowers.
It is a wonderful feeling—and as Mr. Arnold says, home ownership is tending to re-establish the home as the center of family life due, in part, to the comforts and livability being built into homes—with television giving a helping hand.
Take a look around; you too will notice that home ownership is giving us the solid foundations of pride in our community and a strong and necessary family life.

By a Government Official
(Ed. Notet—While Drew Pearson is on a brief vacation, the Washington Merry-Go-Round is being written by distinguished guest columnist. Today's guest column is written by a high federal official on behalf of himself and a number of his colleagues in various agencies. It is unsigned for obvious reasons.)
WASHINGTON—To members of Congress:
You gentlemen in Congress are now conducting what may prove to be highly useful studies of morals and ethics in government. On behalf of myself and others who are striving to bring good men into government, I respectfully urge you to look carefully at Congress itself.
Specifically, won't you take a good look at that small percentage of your colleagues who are effectively driving able men away from government? A few illustrations will tell the story:
There is a brilliant young American executive who in his early 20's, made a careful study of communism. Intellectually curious, he purposefully exposed himself to communist recruiters. Listened to all their arguments and argued with them late into many nights. After some months of this, he emerged with the conviction that communism was a fraud. He became a vigorous anti-communist—all the more effective because he knew what he was talking about. He still feels so strongly on the subject that...

Pigeon Season Getting Under For Young Birds From Local C
With the coming of September comes the racing of young around the country—an event that in the past has proven successful to the breeders of the state.
And the reason so many of the clubs throughout the state as the local Orange County Racing Pigeon club, are banking cessful races is due to the tremendous number of young birds this year.
Many fanciers are now flying more than just one race each week. This is due to the wonderful season for the breaders. A mild winter and a late summer have enabled most flyers to breed more birds than they really intended to; but then everybody figured they all looked so good that they might as well be given the chance to show what they are made of.

a good look at the conduct of some of your own colleagues on this year.
Many fanciers are now flying more than just one race each week. This is due to the wonderful season for the breaders. A mild winter and a late summer have enabled most flyers to breed more birds than they really intended to; but then everybody figured they all looked so good that they might as well be given the chance to show what they are made of.
The local Orange County Racing Pigeon club, which was established way back in 1920, has on its schedule for the next few weeks several outstanding races which from all standpoints should prove very exciting.
Yesterday the young birds had a 125-mile race from Delano and next Sunday they are scheduled for a 150-mile flight from Tulare. Each of these races are just builds to the September 30 flight of some 250-miles.
But some of the old timers around certainly must be giving a chuckle when they read about modern day pigeons racing in competition at distances of 250,400 and 600 miles. A lot of them probably remember back around 1915-16 when their "modern day" birds would record flights of 1497 miles or 1042 miles.
In was during this period that pigeon racing really "took hold" as a hobby for the American roost-aabout. They first came into prominence during the first world war when the Army would use them to great advantage behind the enemy lines.
They proved their worth and from then on it has been one interesting and exciting moment after another with the fanciers.
Raising pigeons in ones back yard would at first seem like a terrible waste of space and above all would be certainly a heavy tax on ones free time. But the surprising thing is that the birds don't require much space and certainly not much care.
For just about an hour each day one can, and does, care for as many as 40 birds and by doing so one can be a part of one of the fastest growing hobby clubs in the Southland. The Orange County club has been averaging approximately four new members each month.

Mr. C. a few months ago was just about persuaded to give up top-flight outside position to perform a vital job in the national emergency. Before actually making the change, however, he read the record of his able predecessor's appearances before several Congressional committees. He found some of them all right, but two wee shocking. When he finished reading the transcript of trial insult and personal abuse in these two cases, he said, "to azzes with it." He remained in its more lucrative, comfortable, and secure private post.
Yes, Mr. Congressman, you and most of your colleagues want to see able and conscientious public servants bearing the enormous burden of government today, but a relative handful of your colleagues, some spoiled by secrecy in positions of envorous Congressional power, are going their best to see that good men are kept out—or driven out of government. While you are a reforming mood, please take a good look at the conduct of some of your own colleagues on Capitol Hill. Perhaps you can find a way to help those of us who are striving desperately to get and keep able executives in government.

Second Week Of Practice Starts Off In Bad Shape
Starting off the second week of football practice on the local campus, the Anaheim Colonists were dealt two setbacks from which they may never Yecover for the remainder of the grid season.
One of the leading aspirants for an end position received two tough blows in two days—one enough to keep him out of action for several weeks. Carl Hatfield injured his hand in practice Thursday, but he suited up Friday for a light workout.
He then fractured his left leg in trying to catch a pass from Johnny Steinborn and x-rays disclosed a fracture that will keep him off his feet for a week and out of action for one or two more.
Hatfield was one of the few ends on the squad that had any previous experience under his belt. His loss of several weeks was coupled with the loss of another outstanding squad member, Johnny Hertera, hard-running halfback and great defensive ace from last season's squad left the varsity team for the Bee team. He was a returning letterman.
Collins Suits Up
Clare Van Hooreboke's lads were put through a strenuous blocking drill Friday afternoon and more of the same seemed on tap for them this week. Steinborn and Lenpy Kolb were punting while being rushed by the defensive outfit, to backs Aaron Peralta, Frank Cancino und Ira team from his quarterback position against the defensive unit, the little Colonists reeled off large chunks of turf almost at will.
The main cogs in the Keith-Hunstock machine were the linemen, led by rugged Dean Stokes, left guard; Mike Troop, right guard; Johnny Wright, center; Tom Berg, left tackle and right tackle. Jimmy McLoughlin. Rivera Runs Wild.
Little Rudy Rivera, right half-back; Bill Walker at fallback and Lonnie Jenkens at left half rounded out the offensive unit—along with the flankers Val Wiethorn and Gayle Herbel.
Howard Garey worked out at quarterback on the offensive team and right half on the defensive unit in the afternoon practice. Other standouts on defense were Joel Henry, tackle; Darrrel Meade, half; Howard Gary, half; Fred Frank, right line backer; Roland Dupuis and Ben Kaneherr safety.
The Ceees were rolling through the same type of drills with almost as much precision with Mike Beach pulling the ball out of the air; Leroy Weaver, passing wizard and Franklin Doretti. Blutplunging half. Coach Dick Glover plans much more of the same drills today. They have a scrimmage on tap at the local field September 25 against Whittier.
birds and in time they expect to be racing their birds against the top racers in the state. And from the looks of some of the birds, above, they are not too far away from achieving their goal. But first, to them and all others, pigeon racing is just a hobby.
In yesterday's race from Delano, Doh Selfridge seemed on his way to picking up a nice trophy, at least he won the first race of four. The breeder with the fastest average time for the four races wins the trophy, in the Junior club.
A's Ruin Bosox As Yanks Win
(By The Associated Press)
It's lucky for New York and Cleveland they have so few games left to play against the Philadelphia Athletics.
Thanks to Jimmy Dykes' animated A's, the American League race, for the time being at least, has become a two-team battle between the front-running Yankees and the runner-up Indians.
Boston's third-place Red Sox, hot on the heels of the leaders for months, saw their pennant hopes all but shattered yesterday when the seventh-place Athletics drubbed them in a doubleheader, 10-4 and 3-2.
The double defeat dropped the Red Sox five and a half games behind the Yankees and Indians. The Sox have 20 games remaining to 20 for the Yankees and 15 for the Indians. Fortunately, Boston has no more games with the Athletics who are scheduled to face the Indians two more times and the Yankees once.
Yanks Edge Away
The Yankees increased their slim first-place margin to four percentage points over the Tribe by sweeping a pair from Washington, 7-5 and 2-0. Cleveland also won, 4-3, from the St. Louis Browns. The Indians have won two more games than the Yankees, but they've also lost two more.
The New York Giants kept their flickering pennant hopes alive in the National league race, defeating the Brooklyn Dodgers, 2-1, to climb back within five and a half varsity team for the Bee team. He was a returning letterman. Collins Suits Up

Anaheim's only three entrants, all juniors, found the competition much too strong in the 25th Annual Pacific Southwest Tennis Championships as they were eliminated in play over the weekend.
Mary Flynn played in the Junior Girls' 18 year and under event lost to Marjorie Gibbens of Santa Monica, 6-0, 6-1. Anne Williams was defeated by Frances Huneke of Inglewood 6-4, 6-0, while Jean Williams lost out to third seeded Estelle Davies of Chula Vista 6-2, 6-1.
Entry in this Silver Anniversary celebration, however, afforded the Anaheim trio the opportunity of a lifetime as they were privileged to watch the Sunday exhibition features on the main court which starred all of the Australia Davis Cup team, the Japanese Davis Cup team, all of the United States Davis Cup players and nationally ranked stars, with the exception of Dick Savitt who was forced to default because of a leg infection incurred in the national championships, as well as Maureen Connelly, who was making her first public appearance after her sensational triumph when she took the United States Women's Singles title.
The New York Giants kept their flickering pennant hopes alive in the National league race, defeating the Brooklyn Dodgers, 2-1, to climb back within five and a half games of the lead. The St. Louis Cardinals entrenched their hold on third place with a pair of triumphs over Pittsburgh, 2-1 in 10 innings, and 7-4.
