Anaheim Gazette GOOFY DERBY AND THE MAD HATTER—members of the Methodist Youth Fellowship like something stranger than Alice in Wonderland ever saw last night as they began their visit through Anaheim streets. The members of the mid-week party were only allowed join the roving group if they found a way to travel that was unorthodox to say the least. Seated bicycles, tin cans, skates, pogo sticks, horses, wheel chairs, covered wagon, anything, was acceptable.—(Gazette photo by Robertson.) White Temple 'Goofy Derby' Draws Amazed Stares on Way Through Town It was a weird-looking procession of kid-propelled vehicles that wound its way through the streets of downtown Anaheim last night, and late shoppers stared in amazement at a startling assortment of miniature covered wagons, rusty racers, stilts, pogo sticks, etc., until they learned that it was the "goofy derby" of the junior high Methodist Youth Fellowship from White Temple church.

Anaheim KC To Host District Meeting Anaheim Knights of Columbus will be host to the Santa Ana, Pomona and Whittler councils for a district meeting, Oct. 8. The affair, to begin at 7 p.m. and to conclude dinner, will be devoted strictly to social and fraternal activities, according to Roger Reynolds, district deputy from Anaheim.

People of the Balearic Islands were so adept with the slingshot that many of them were hired by the armies of Carthage and Rome. It seems that as a part of their regular Tuesday night meeting, the group was sponsoring a contest to see who could think up the most unconventional mode of transportation. Winner of the prize was Ann Thomason and Diane Simpson, who covered a old barrel with white cloth and mounted it upon an express wagon to form a miniature covered wagon. "Goofy Derby or bust" was written in lipstick upon the "wagon," and the girls paraded beside it dressed as pioneers of the Daniel Boone era, squirrel-tail cap 'n all, even including a musket! Joan Joyce walked through town on top of two old fruit-cans, strapped to her feet. Dennis Daniels leaped along on a pogo stick, and Betty Dierberger rode bareback on her horse. "Candy." Jerry Goodchild and Teddy Dinkler had two bikes built into one tandem, behind which they "cracked the whip" with Gary Gray riding behind them on skates. Glenda Gray was on stilts; Bob Miller tried to steer a long-extinct "racer" covered with rust; Kay Schmitt mounted a chair on a baggage-dolly pushed by Judy Winfry; Keith Hysom rode on skates; and Jimmy Dierberger an express wagon, alternately occupied by Mrs. Water claimed by the ment to supply Camp Pe Marine Corps Base is involved.

Mrs. Jean Wade Rindlaub, vice president of Batten, Barton, Dustine and Osborn, a New York advertising firm, told some 1,800 delegates to the 18th annual convention of the National Association of Food Chains that what women miss most in their stores are the "little personal, human, friendly things." "Service is an old hat word, perhaps, but it's still the word that makes business wheels go around," said Mrs. Rindlaub. "Your customer wants to be loved. She does not want to growled at, or snarled at, or yelled at, or peered at suspiciously as though at any moment she's about to put a package in her pocket. She wants someone to know her name and use it." Mrs. Rindlaub's personalized talk followed two days of speeches on various weightier topics, including the government's controls program. She suggested a number of ways service can be improved in the nation's super markets and chain food stores.

WASHINGTON (P)—A House committee today set a hearing tentatively for Oct. 5 on legislation dealing with a water rights controversy on the Santa Margarita river in California. Water claimed by the government to supply Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base is involved. Rep. Engle, (D-Calif), chairman of the House Interior subcommittee on Reclamation, invited the Justice, Defense and Interior departments to send witnesses to the hearing. A bill by Rep. McKinnon (D-Calif) calls for construction of a dam to impound flood waters on the river and increase water supplies. The bill also would require the federal government to observe state laws governing water resources in the western states. The McKinnon bill is an outgrowth of pending litigation in which the Justice department sued more than 10,000 landowners in the Santa Margarita watershed. The five-member subcommittee just week criticized "legal theorists in the attorney general's office" for putting so many local residents to provocation and legal expense. The government filed the suit to protect water rights purchased cleaner Gilbreth, minister of education at White Temple and counsel of the group, and Rev. Frank Butterworth, pastor.

She suggested a number of ways service can be improved in the nation's super markets and chain food stores. Mrs. Rindlaub said these suggestions were received when it bought the land for Camp Pendleton. The proposed dam would be located at the junction of the Santa Margarita river and De Luz creek in San Diego county. It would be constructed by the Reclamation bureau to impound about 188,000 acre feet of water with an annual yield of 20,000 acre feet. The McKinnon bill would provide for division of the water between the Navy and the Fallbrook Public Utility district, with 12,500 acre feet annually going to Camp Pendleton and 7700 acre feet to the district for irrigation, municipal and domestic use.

Grey was particularly appealing in a cloud of diaphonous nylon tulle for evening wear, nipped in at the waistline, and accented with rosebuds of palest pink satin. Winter formals will imitate the sound of a brisk wind swirling dried-up leaves—what Paul Gallico once described onomatopoetically (that's Noah Webster for word-imitation of sound) as the —ssh —ssh of taffeta. It's evident that smart women, unlike the little children of the old broomide, are going to be heard as well as seen this year.

In addition to an exciting collection of clothing beautifully presented, let it be said for the Mary Millerick shop and their non-professional — presumably, though they certainly had the poise and grace of professionals — models that not a one of the ladies wore the last-gasp look of a head-cold sufferer so characteristic of fashion art these days. The models seemed vibrant with life and sparkling with the assurance of a smartly-dressed woman who knows she looks good.
